Asshat promise of the day from Pierre Poilievre - as if the lack of plastic straws and bags are making life more expensive for Canadians.
Next he will be bringing back roundup, DDT, freon, asbestos, coal mining and smog.

This is horrific. It’s happening.
Not to put too fine a point on it, but when the Nazis first started sending Jews and other victims to camps, they called it deportation, and the camps were technically in other countries.

I have just asked the Governor General to dissolve Parliament and call a federal election on April 28.
We need to build the strongest economy in the G7. We need to deal with President Trump’s tariffs. Canadians deserve a choice about who should lead that effort for our country.

The Chrétien speech brought the tears; he embodies what being Canadian is about and makes me so proud of being a Canadian! I remember how much my parents both loved him as well.

We stand by Ukraine.
We will step up our support to Ukraine so that they can continue to fight back the agressor.
Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.

There is also a mountain of evidence suggesting Russia was behind the Ottawa occupation.
Russian state media covered the Convoy first, and more than, any other English news outlet.
This isn't hyperbole, it's verifiable.
Here's a research paper on the subject:

Here we go again. Campaigning on f*cking booze.
Doug Ford is promising to remove the minimum price for liquor if re-elected, meaning the LCBO could sell it for as low as it wants. Ford says “That’s like a tax break” “Why do we have to have a base? Let’s reduce the cost of that”

Not sure if Canada’s media is paid to look away or just too lazy to organize the facts—so I did it for them. Every major Doug Ford scandal in one place. Maybe they should report on it again instead of letting this corrupt sack of shit skate. #VoteFordOut
