Really curious to see what comes out of the meeting with Joly tonight, especially as the auto strategy drops in Feb. Perhaps the EV mandate isn't needed if the market conditions for it are provided.

Parliament officially resumes sitting today!
After a meaningful recess spent in the riding, I’m back in Ottawa ready to bring Spadina—Harbourfront’s priorities into the new session. Here’s a look at my seat in the House of Commons as we get back to work.

Greetings from Kyiv and warcoffee.
I woke up to electricity today,
had my coffee, washed the floor, and went to the workout.
Yes, still very cold in the gym.
But you know, life… life goes on.

Steph Curry on watching the protests from his hotel window: "In negative 10-degree weather. It was beautiful to see that turnout. That speaks to how important people felt to have their voice heard. In those elements and whatever streets outside our hotel, they were out, and it was amazing to watch."

An additional $130 to a low-income person. This is insulting.
Meanwhile, Canadians 65 and older get $9000/year if they make under $90k/year.
Carney's youth caucus should abandon him.
