Fun bit of history ... Pierre Poilievre & Jenni Byrne hold Stockwell Day's grandchild to pose as an Alberta family in an ad to nominate Ezra Levant "for the Canadian Alliance in Calgary Southwest in CBC footage from 2002".
Levant stepped aside to allow Stephen Harper to run in the riding. #cdnpoli

The campaign is a Poilievre campaign, so being mean, mendacious, and arrogant was always going to be part of it. He’s only ever been an attack dog, so he’s fighting yesterday’s war the only way he knows how.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

Facebook’s secrets, by the insider Zuckerberg tried to silence Careless People author and former Meta director Sarah Wynn-Williams reveals what it was like β€˜babysitting’ her boss

β€œShe describes [Zuckerberg] as a cross between a truculent teen and a toddler: he doesn’t like to get up before midday, even to meet prime ministers, and his obsequious colleagues feel obliged to let him beat them at board games.”

Sigh. The tech bros are all the same.

They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

I've been buying Canadian wherever possible and am pleased to find out we can get the same goods with better quality and lower prices. Also, I'm looking forward to seeing a good selection of European goods on our shelves moving forward. This boycott is easier than I thought.

At the NATO meeting a loud US republican saw my CDN flag pin on my lapel and reached for it saying, "Hey Canada."
I stopped him.
"Don't touch the Canadian flag."
"Just joking," he said.
"You'll die before you touch our flag," I said, "not joking."
He scrambled out of there.

Trump funding freeze a blatant violation of Constitution, federal law: Legal experts The Constitution, federal law and court decisions make it clear: President Donald Trump's order to pause federal funding is against the law, legal experts tell ABC News.

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives

Regarding the latest Conservative scheme to force an election just as Trump comes to power:
I didn't survive 21 years in Parliament defending a working class and Indigenous constituency to get played for a sucker by Pierre Poilievre and his Vichy Conservatives.

Why won’t the media use the word misogyny? Misogyny is at the core of these smear campaigns targeting women, yet news coverage consistently avoids naming it.
