I feel sorry for the PM having to deal with this madman, taking his shit without argument so that he can try to get a deal for Canada.
How would the DT administration take it if we didn't show up? Well? I doubt it so when PM Carney does what he has to do I stand in support of him & Team Canada.

“Mark Carney is one of the most respected voices on the economy worldwide and by far the most qualified to steer Canada through the second Trump presidency. Canada already has the best trade deal with the U.S., and Canadians trust the PM to build on that while creating new opportunities abroad.”

Heaven forbid! The thought of Doug Ford winning a federal election horrifies me. If he can bugger up everything in Ontario, I’m afraid to think of what he could do at the federal level. #ugh

Fair Vote Canada 🗳️🍁 @fairvote.ca · 11h

The issue isn’t free votes. It’s forcing BC’s entire right-wing spectrum into one party and expecting stability.

Proportional representation would end the need for every conservative to crowd into one tent and let them champion different ideas without heavy-handed leadership.

Screenshot of an article by Rob Shaw titled “Rustad’s free-vote revolution collapses under pressure.” The subheading reads, “B.C. Conservatives’ bold talk about conscience and courage crumbled the moment unity proved more valuable than principle.” Below is a photo of BC Conservative Leader John Rustad wearing a navy suit, white shirt, and glasses, standing outdoors with a serious expression.

Time to drop some f bombs and talk about the face of gangster fascism.
Gone are the grey uniforms and goose-steps in are the baseball caps and botox.
But the fascist playbook is redefining politics. We need to call it out.
This is my latest.
