This is a very kind wish. But I'd also like to ask you to follow other Canadian senators who are already here, and who haven't been as lucky as I have in connecting with an audience. I convinced a fair few Senate friends to give this platform a try, but many didn't feel it worked for them. #cdnpoli
#canadiansky Let’s get the Senator’s follower numbers up to demonstrate engagement here is good comms strategy.
More recently, I had the chance, in a committee hearing, to raise the issue of the CBC’s commitment to X. Here’s what CBC’s top executives told me about why the CBC isn’t on Bluesky or Mastodon. youtu.be/lJUeQZlvD-E?... #cdnpoli

This is a dangerous and irresponsible response.

Cheering the illegal abduction of a foreign head of state and celebrating U.S. control over another country is wrong.

Canada cannot pick & choose when international law applies. If the rules only matter when it’s convenient, they don’t protect anyone

on some level you have to stand in awe of the gall it takes to use this tone about someone people are angry at for suppressing a story about a concentration camp

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

CBC has put together an impressive collection of clips exposing Diagolon and Second Sons in their own words. These are white nationalists and neo-Nazis who want an ethnic cleansing and believe "violence is the answer." Largest group of its kind in Canadian history. www.youtube.com/watch?app=de...

“You will never be disappointed with The United States of America.”

Well. I guess if your expectations are low enough, that will be true.
