Her stats line up with CDC data…

Hilarious bs from the newly released Conservative platform: "Respecting union rights—no return to anti-union bills like C-377 or C-525, and no right-to-work laws." Both those bills were from the Conservatives and of course Poilievre voted for both of them.

Nothing says let them eat cake like paying 11 million dollars to float for 3 minutes.... And don't even get me started about her singing "what a wonderful world" while up there....

FENCES and NEIGHBOURS

Every day on the internet makes it abundantly clear that some people have never had a single person turn around and say to them, ‘Cite your sources’ because, and I say this with every ounce of love I can muster as a teacher: while you are entitled to your opinion, that does not make it fact.

Trump's son, Donald Jr., news host Tucker Carlson, Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, and special envoy Steve Witkoff were involved in backchannel talks with President Zelensky's political rivals, Politico reported on March 18, citing undisclosed sources.

Whether you're woke or not, #ClimateChange is real! We notice this all over the world. One day it's 78.8°F, the next it's 46.4°F... And no, these huge differences DID NOT occur on this large a scale in the past. We have one earth, and it desperately needs our protection! 🌏🪬

It’s sad to say this, and Carney is going to make an incredible PM, but this Canadian existential crisis was made for Trudeau to lead us through. We’re so fortunate to have a qualified person like Carney waiting in the wings, but everyone who pushed Trudeau out should be ashamed.

So if Canada is going to do the time, should Canada do the crime?

The new liberal leader has been chosen. An election will be called any day. We cannot allow Trump, JD Vance and Elon Musk to interfere in our election and threaten our democracy. We must protect the people's house from tyranny. www.youtube.com/shorts/YyBnR...

A friend included this anti-acknowledgement section on her PhD thesis. She also added the proposition: “Systematic bullying and undermining of girls and women in STEM starts early on and is the reason why they do not stay in science and related fields.” Absurd we still need to go through this 🧪👩‍🔬

The fact of the matter is that without Trump‘s help, Russia will collapse. He has given a lifeline to a murderous dictator and war criminal. We should be sanctioning Russia into insolvency and let the IMF run train on them.

I wonder if he also cancelled this: Quoting - Global News: Weeks before Ford called a snap election campaign with the threat of tariffs looming, his campaign director signed an “exclusive partnership” with a Washington D.C.-based lobbying firm.

The boycott is strong. Canadians will not break. We thank our allies and friends from across the world who are supporting our fight. Boycott the felon administration. Spend your travel dollars elsewhere. Don't spend a dime in the USA. Here is my latest interview. ottawa.citynews.ca/video/2025/0...
