Vive le Canada!

Mr. Trump has accomplished one thing: He has unified Canadians more than we have been ever before! All leaders across our country have united in resolve to defend Canadian interests.

This is a must view video.
The rise of death threats and hate harassment over the last 4 years has been shocking.
The targeting of school board officials, politicians, municipal leaders is an open threat to democracy because it targets people who dare step up to serve.
The Alt Right groups — whether it’s attacking PMJT, lib MPs or going after town councils, are impacting our democracy and destroying society.

They have caused Pickering to go back to online meetings for safety reasons

Dutton’s nuclear plan doesn’t address the climate crisis for about 25 years, while its claimed cost savings of 44% are based on a comparison with Labor’s plan – that produces 45% more electricity.

These are the glaring gaps and unanswered questions in the Coalition’s nuclear plan and costings.

Poilievre is following Hitler’s playbook: stoke hatred towards the existing government & incite hatred against a minority group (Canadian Immigrants) & blame all sorrows on them & Trudeau. Claim country is broken & only PP can fix it.

PP is full of 💩. He’s the AntiCanadian
#cdnpoli #NeverPoilievre
History teaches us that dictators like Hitler and Stalin attacked the press to crush democracy. Poilievre’s attack on the CBC, echoing Trump’s rhetoric, follows this dangerous playbook—and it should raise serious alarm bells. #cdnpoli

Canadian governments - federal, provincial, municipal - better have plans ready for when displaced asylum-seekers (thousands? tens of thousands? hundreds of thousands?) attempt to cross the border from the United States into Canada.
