So is Mark Carney going to go along with the suspension of human rights by MAGA government in Alberta?
You cant' do nation-building by allowing an autocratic government to suspend the charter rights of citizens.
Just say no Mark.
it's pretty straightforward.

Queer and Trans kids and teens have the highest rates of suicide attempts and successes, so if you think regulating their bodies is a good idea, you're a worthless piece of shit. I will defend and protect a trans kid regardless of whatever bullshit rightwing law comes our way

The Dishonourable Andrew Scheer's malicious assault on a Canadian journalist has led to her being doxxed by right-wing US extremists.
He should be expelled from Parliament.
In the meantime, sign this to demand he apologise

Unpaid work should be illegal. Tell @aircanada.bsky.social that not paying flight attendants for the important work they do before the doors close and after they open deserves to be paid work. Support @unifor.org Air Canada Workers #union #unionstrong #unionproud

The next time a Catholic says they can't use someone's preferred name or pronouns, remind them that the new Pope Leo XIV's real name is Robert Prevost.
In fact, *only* refer to him as Robert Prevost.
They understand. They just don't want to.
