PIERRE POILIEVRE has a 20 year House voting record of being anti-union. He has voted against workers rights, minimum wages and better working conditions for two decades. He only pretends to support unions, the common worker, women, minorities and the poor, and media lets him get away with this crap.

I love my country, 🇺🇸, enough to not decry a foreigner speaking truth about her—any more than I would laud a fellow American speaking falsehoods about her.
This is a speech worth watching, and is probably infinitely kinder than Trump deserves. I am ashamed at how he is treating Canada.

Alberta: home of the highest auto insurance rates, fastest-growing rents, highest inflation, lowest minimum wage, lowest education funding.
And home to a UCP government that’s just hiked their own salaries and budgets.
Instead of helping you, the UCP helped themselves.
Please don’t forget this.

This is everything you need to know about Poilievre.
He is their guy on the inside.
I will never ever vote on anything brought forward by this man.
He is fundamentally unfit for public office.

Excellent article, important read 🇨🇦
Today, the grassroots response to this article is overwhelmingly positive from actual Canadians. But I fully expect that by tomorrow, the Russian & far right bots on X will be attacking my account.

Extremists target Trudeau and Canada
The far right is a transnational movement that seeks to destroy liberal democracy by spreading disinformation on social media, smearing democratic leaders, and causing chaos.

The very people criminalized and hated, saved lives. I tell everyone who will listen, no one knows truly the gift of those who are trodden upon with abandon. That they bring to this world, something many are lacking, simple love and courage.
“eight men and women who rely on the society's emergency shelter rushed in to help within seconds of the blast.”
While the province takes an approach to homelessness that’s wholly insufficient, these vulnerable Albertans saved lives.

It’s 2025… can we start masking in hospitals this year?
Can we stop insinuating that hospital acquired covid is “inevitable” or that those who die were going to “die anyways”?
Can we call it what it is? An epic failure of infection control to protect those who put their lives in your hands:

A Plea to Maskless Healthcare Workers from Vulnerable Patients
If you see a mask - wear a mask. Better yet - wear a mask all the time and show us you understand that we're still IN a pandemic. We are depending on you to keep us safe - please don't betray that.

See? I take my role very seriously. I teach my Kindergarten students all the stuff they need to know. Like Mrs. Pringle here.
I also don’t forbid going in puddles or picking up sticks. I say “be aware…” and brainstorm possible scenarios.
Be aware, that puddle might be deep, you could get a soaker.

I learned a ton of useful terms from my kids’ kindergartens teacher Mrs Pringle in London, Ont. The soaker was probably the first. The second was “you need to get them better coats” 🤣

Just a reminder, CUPW offered rotating strikes before issuing strike notice, the management team over at Canada Post refused it and locked the workers out. Mail would have still been moving, Canada Post management decided otherwise. #cdnpoli

Canada Post is NOT a private corporation; it's a crown corporation owned by the federal government. It does NOT need to make money. Some things can be a public service intended to meet the needs of the public. I support Canada Post workers and all workers who make sacrifices to fight for labour. ✊
