Make a complaint to the CRTC, get Fox News banned from cable in Canada! They're advocating violence against Canadians.

Waters isn't taking Saskatchewan peacefully, or even with a fight, not that he or his idiot MAGA base could manage to.
It's authoritarian rhetoric like that, which is why the US is losing billions of dollars in tourism this year alone, and Kentuky is losing bourbon businesses.

Yes, I agree.

Yes! The pressure needs to stay on about security clearance, 100%.

Susan Arthurs @sarthurs.bsky.social · May 30

The defeated candidate needs to have MPs accompany him in the house so he can speak while living in a taxpayer -paid accommodation for free. What was that about government spending, lol? I think maybe Poilievre is the expensive one since he will trigger a by-election costing at least $1 million.

CPAC TV @cpac.ca · May 30

“It’s clear that Mark Carney is even more expensive than Justin Trudeau,” says Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, criticizing the Liberal government’s spending plan for the year ahead and confirming his party will not support it.

Those that say Carney doesn't have a plan (for housing, careers, diversification of trade within Canada) are not listening. He provided details speaking at Fed. of Can. Municipalities, committting to help, not lecture, and collaborate with other leaders. We won the lottery with this PM.

There's PP on CBC just like nothing has changed at all. He sure gets a lot of air time to vent his b.s. and repeat his tired slogans.
"A great life in a beautiful home on a safe street".
Voting no to Carney's spending bill claiming it is irresponsible while he lives for free on tax payer's dime.

1/ This sure sounds like the international human rights law definition of a disappearance:

"Assistant U.S. Attorney Jimmy Rodriguez said he has 'no reason to doubt' the claim that Agelviz Sanguino was in El Salvador, but that he did not have information as to his whereabouts."

MAKE NOISE ON THIS ONE‼️

They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador.

Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose.

No charges. No record. Just a suspicion.

In Saskatchewan's defense, a lot of did not vote for the traitorous Scott Moe aka Stephen Harper's puppet propped up by out-of-province corporate donors. Would appreciate if rural Saskatchewan would stop voting for this incompetent buffoon.

Saskatchewan is an endlessly frustrating place to live. Watching the once beating heart of Canadian socialist populism turn into a trucknutted cesspit is a soul-deadening process.

But, there are still good folks fighting for this place. @steveboots.bsky.social is one of them, check him out.

Saskatchewan joined Confederation on September 1, 1905.

That was 43,710 days ago.

I am a proud Canadian. That's never going to change. 🇨🇦

Scott Moe and the group of separatists he's fuelling aren't going to take our country from us.

Carney will win over many more Canadians once his plans get rolling. Moe & Smith are going to face a lot of pressure to work with Team Canada. The results of mtg with Trump are going to become big part of narrative again.
Cons. need to respect the treaties & cut this separatist b.s.

We always knew Conservatives heads on the prairies would start exploding if the Liberals won another mandate. There's no excuse to do a convoy, so now it's separatism.
