Andrew Scheer says Mark Carney has “been badly educated” and given Andy’s credentials as a nearly-licensed insurance broker I am inclined to take Andy’s word on this matter.

Ford government announces new plan to help them meet their ‘new homes built’ target.

Bannon promised a nationalist restoration. What he built was a cult of exhaustion: break institutions, flood the zone, treat law as a nuisance, call the rubble renewal. Orbán’s fall is a warning. Trumpism may be next to learn that chaos is not a governing philosophy open.substack.com/pub/normsmus...

New post from Pope Leo: "God's heart is torn apart by wars, violence, injustice and lies. But our Father's heart is not with the wicked, the arrogant, or the proud. God's heart is with the little ones and the humble."

Re: Cratering of the Conservative vote across 3 by-elections yesterday. While piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre keeps cranking out the same old negativity like some campus Conservative club vice-president, his actual political base is a Georgian Bay ice floe melting in March. 🤷🏼😉🤷🏼

Has petulant peewee piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre ever had the class or grace to congratulate anyone other than himself? #SoreLoser🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

The Conservatives weren’t expected to win any of the three by-elections, but under Pierre Poilievre the Conservative vote in all three ridings PLUMMETED. Not good for the piffleswipe. 🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁

Lots of talk in my small 🇨🇦Liberal circles about wanting Pierre Poilievre to stay on as Conservative leader forever. I tend to the view that it’s better for the country to have adults both as Prime Minister and as Leader of His Majesty’s Loyal Opposition. On the other hand … 🤷🏼😉🤷🏼

Nazi 🇺🇸Trump: “In order to prevent Iran from blockading the Strait of Hormuz, the Nazi 🇺🇸USA will henceforth blockade the Strait of Hormuz. Thank you for your attention to this matter. PS: As you know, I’ve always dreamed of being a Red Cross doctor, helping people all over the world.”

Very excellent that Ontario’s MAID review committee is no longer to be abused as a platform for individuals who oppose 🇨🇦Canada’s democratically enacted legislation and aim to undermine public confidence in our enlightened system.

Our own Dr. Danielle Martin in University Rosedale has put 🇨🇦Liberal government into majority position. 🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁

Today is Election Day in University—Rosedale, Scarborough Southwest, and Terrebonne.   Your voice matters — so don’t forget to get out and vote. Polls are open from 8:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.

Last couple my E-Day partner and I drove to the poll were she on a walker and he on a cane. Had to be helped into the car and to do seatbelts up. Told us about his 95th birthday dinner at their condo. And the year she was born, women had only recently got the vote. They sure were gonna vote today! 🥹

Hillary Clinton was right about everything. Kamala Harris was right about everything. Both would’ve been incredible Presidents and I remain proud AF to have cast my vote for them.

There’s many satisfying things about working at grassroots in an election campaign, but driving voters to the polls on E-Day is best of all. 🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁

Yes. Let’s do it. 🇪🇺EU membership for 🇨🇦Canada now!

Happy for Budapest this morning. 🇨🇦🇭🇺🇨🇦 (Image from October 2, 2023)

Congratulations to Péter Magyar on a decisive election victory in Hungary. The Hungarian people have chosen a new path. We are ready to work with you, and our European allies, to deepen our cooperation in trade, defence, and security.

All the little Orbanist neofascists from Trump to Vance to Rubio to Musk to Bannon have just received a well deserved, smashing kick in the teeth (metaphorically speaking). 😉

Hungary proves to the world that all those neofascists in the 🇺🇸USA who’ve been predicting the death of European civilization had it dead wrong. It’s the death of 🇺🇸USA hegemony they should be talking about instead. Everything Trump touches dies. 🤷🏼🤭🤷🏼 www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Dum de dum dum, Pierre Poilievre. Longtime Conservatives are coming to the realization you’re unelectable. This👇🏻from a former advisor to Stephen Harper. 🍁🍁🍁 www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

We now go live to Trump blocking the Strait of Hormuz:

Marc Miller on Mark Carney: "I really think that he is a serious leader. Canadians, regardless of their historic political stripes, are seeing serious leadership, and they're rallying behind him." #cdnpoli

Befuddled Conservatives waking up to the fact they’re now seen as a weird collection of campus Tories who never grew up, KuKluxKonvoyers, gun cultists, ditchbillies, crypto separatists and Trump lovers, throwing hairy fits because Mark Carney so widely liked as the adult in the room. 🍁🤷🏼🍁

Lots of 🍁neofascists on Twitter this morning with their hair on fire after an enormously successful weekend for the Liberal Party of Canada🇨🇦. Now let’s go win those by-elections tomorrow so we can finish the job. Vote, vote, vote! #CanadaStrong🇨🇦

In which the doyenne of the 🍁gun cult and high mucky muck at the Canadian Coalition for “Firearm Rights” discloses that she wasn’t actually at the 🇨🇦Liberal national convention this weekend, thereby missing the overwhelming positivity coming out of the event, including watching the landing together.

The shared excitement over NASA’s recent mission compared to the general indifference to SpaceX missions speaks to the power of something seen as the product of communal human effort rather than just the ego and avarice of one obnoxious dork.

More than 4,500 Liberals came together in Montréal this weekend. We’re united in our mission, ambitious for our country, and together, we’re building Canada Strong.

PM Carney: "Many of our former strengths, which rested on our close ties with the United States, have become our weaknesses now ... And while we have overcome the initial shock of the betrayal, we must never forget the lessons it has taught us. We must take care of ourselves." #cdnpoli

Local sociopath best known for beating up Zelensky in Oval Office surprises no one by failing to achieve peace. 🤷🏼🇺🇸🙄🇺🇸🤷🏼 www.nytimes.com/live/2026/04...

💯💯💯

People are often mystified by lawyers who fight like cats and dogs in court, and then go off for drinks afterwards. Well guess what, folks? With MP’s it’s much the same. They talk like human beings outside the Commons. And sometimes talk turns to more than talk. And that doesn’t mean “dirty deals.”🍁

🧵 So, every 🍁Canadian has good reason to marvel at how lucky we are to live in this country. But attending the national convention of any of our political parties adds a whole extra dimension to that sentiment. To see thousands of ordinary people, young, old, all different colours, all …

This whole furore over the matter of floor-crossing MP’s exposes nothing more than the commentariat’s ignorance of constitutional principle. When you vote for a candidate, you vote for them, not a party. If elected, they don’t become your lawyer, obliged to follow your instructions. They … 1/2

Only the 🇺🇸USA would send a jumped up Yaley Ayn Rand dweeb who never learned manners at home purportedly to negotiate the future of an entire civilization. We live in upside down town. 🤷🏼🙄🤷🏼

Got that right Prime Minister " The days of Canada's military sending 70 cents of every dollar to the United States are over," he said to a standing ovation. " @mark-carney.bsky.social

So, directly after PM Carney’s hugely applauded speech at the 🇨🇦Liberal national convention, one rushed to the Tortolia Exhibit at the Montréal Museum of Fine Arts, and there found a disconsolate piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre. 😉

“Our indigenous peoples had established continental trade routes before the Americans had even left St. Louis.”

There’s an adult in the room now, Pierre. Listen up. 🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁

The great thing about listening to PM Carney speak in French is knowing that neither Trump nor any of his grisly henchmen can understand a word he’s saying. 🤫😉🤭

“You are all in for 🇨🇦Canada,” he tells the packed hall. 🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁

The PM arrives …
