Don’t forget LBJ and the war on poverty. If the Dems could just divorce themselves from wall street and dirty money, grow a spine and a set of cajones, and walk the walk, that’d be super.

Once again @canadianpolling.bsky.social shares a tweet that shows data from a poll that proves once again, people really know Poilievre and exactly why they don’t like him.

Man. What a day yesterday. So apparently Smith has introduced a bill to allow people to use guns if someone enters their home.Anyway,I got kicked of threads for saying nasty stuff to a young Albertan who said she would gladly shoot anyone entering her house uninvited. They did t like my comment.

Alberta is a place where we can't fund -
Education
Covid shots
Healthcare
Or prescriptions for seniors
To name a few

But we can build a pipeline that only benefits O&G
The same O&G industry that is automating & laying off workers

The UCP only care about their donors

Well, I’m back officially on blue sky, probably for good. I awoke to my Instagram and threads accounts both suspended for 180 days. Half a year, really?

Oh boy I’m not an NDP voter but if Charlie Angus was running in my city I may just switch. He is making me so proud to be Canadian 🇨🇦

Canadian MP Charlie Angus:

This kind of dismissive, idiotic behavior? I mean, he’s a juvenile.

And I invite Donald Trump to come up anytime in the winter. Donald, try to drive our roads. Try to win an argument with any woman in Canada. We’re pretty tough and resilient people.
