If Poilievre loses the byelection in Alberta maybe he can apply to the Parliamentary Page program so he can hold the Liberal government to account when he brings them water.

Someone asked about the cost of a by-election to get PP a seat so I did some research. The last report available on the cost of by-elections relates to those held in 2023. That year, there were 5 at a total cost of $6,412M so that’s a little under $1.3M per by-election. #cdnpoli #cdnmedia

Maybe this story would’ve received more media coverage if Pierre Poilievre had been handing out buttons to convoy participants instead of just coffee and donuts.

FOR THOSE WHO ASK… “Why does he set these tariffs only to roll them back a few days later? I mean, what’s the point?“

Here ends the lesson on Despot Economics.

Migrant Workers Alliance for Change just fired a shot across Poilievre's bow.
Poilievre Family Backed Undocumented Uncle-In-Law’s Immigration Application While Launching Trump-like Attacks on Migrants Toronto, March 28, 2025 -- Migrant Workers Alliance for Change is responding to last night’s explosive story in The Breach Media that revealed that Pierre Poilievre’s relative—the uncle of his wife, Anaida Poilievre—lived undocumented in Canada after his asylum claim was rejected, and received help from Mrs. Poilievre and an undisclosed MP’s office in 2021 in his efforts to get permanent residency. “Poilievre has vilified migrants, blaming them for the housing and affordability crisis, and says he plans to ‘track down’ and deport undocumented people even though his wife, who is a public figure heavily involved in his campaign, supported the regularization of her uncle. Why does Poilievre think other families don’t deserve the same rights as his own? All families deserve to be together, and every refugee, migrant and undocumented person should have permanent resident status in order to access equal rights." Syed Hussan, Executive Director, Migrant Workers Alliance for Change

Thinking about this a lot lately…🙃
Dana Gould tweeted: Thinking about Rush Limbaugh and how, now that he's dead, you never, ever hear about him. No one mentions anything he did. Because what he did had no value. It contributed nothing worthwhile to the culture. Nothing of lasting value. He just made anger. Every day. Rising, blooming & fading like a fart. Then he died & was instantly replaced by a fleet of little replicas, farting fake fury five days a week. Creating nothing of interest or artistic value to anyone. Seriously, what an awful way to make a living.

Doug Ford, who is destroying Ontario's healthcare system, thinks you can't see past his bullshit about the causes of the province's emergency room crisis.

Please, please vote for somebody else.

It went right over MAGA heads. They just saw “DEI.”
A tweet by Casey McGaw ( @CaseyeyMcGaw ): "“Too loud, too reckless, too ghetto” “Uncle Sam” representing those who tell the Black community how to behave. Dancers form a disconnected American flag. Cultural significance. Kendrick Lamar. #SuperBowl🏈" with images of dancers in red, white, and blue forming an American flag and a person in an Uncle Sam outfit.

This was Michael Ford’s old seat, who as the owner of the heritage file allowed Ontario Place’s West Island to be obliterated. Send the Ontario PC Party a message in this riding! #topoli #onpoli

We're proud to announce our first endorsement: @faisalhassan.bsky.social for York-South Weston!

Stay tuned as we complete our research and finalize more endorsements

#NotOneSeat #TOPoli #Onpoli #ONelxn
ENDORSED To defeat Ford's PCs in York-South Weston Faisal Hassal NDP Unity Candidate Why NOT ONE Seat chose Faisal Hassan Incumbency (past MPP) - PC incumbent not running - Strong ground game - Community connections - Past electoral results - Riding history - Polling trends to date Notes: York–South Weston is once again gearing up to be a close three-way race. Polling may undercount Faisal Hassan’s support, as 338Canada’s seat projections prior to the 2022 election indicated a 3rd place with 27% of the vote; actual result was a close 2nd place with 34% of the vote, finishing just 796 votes behind. Polling aside, Faisal Hassan is an extremely strong candidate on all other factors 2022 Election results shows a bar graph with a blue bar indicated PC results, and an Orange, Red and Green bar showing combined Opposition results. The orange is only slightly shorter than the blue, with the combined length almost double the size of the blue. Potential to flip: HIGH NotOneSeat.ca
