American owned newspaper asks convicted criminal who was pardoned by Trump to weigh in on Canadian affairs. Now over to the guy on the beach in Costa Rica.

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

Alexi Pretti was a loved and respected nurse helping critically ill veterans. He was beaten and murdered on the streets of Minneapolis by paramilitaries in the employ of Donald Trump. This is not a nation that can be trusted at any level.

There's something happening here What it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there A-telling me I got to beware I think it's time we stop Children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down

All to please a wannabe king who is demented and thrives on violence.

Holy shit.

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Message from a convicted criminal and sexual offender to Canada. I'll take that as Team Canada for the win.

Here’s something that’s really important for everyone to understand. If we design our cities just for cars, they fail everyone, including drivers. If we design our cities with many great CHOICES in how to get around, they work better for everyone, including drivers. Spread the word.

Hey, as a librarian I have to tell you You don't have to finish a book that doesn't interest you. Life's too short for that. Not your jam? You have my permission to move on to the next book.

Why haven't the Canadians who want us to join the U.S. moved there? Why do they stay? Because they're afraid to lose all the benefits of being Canadian, that's why. And they know that if they were to move there, they could no longer complain, & if they fail, it would be entirely on them. Weak.

These photos from my Grade 1/2 classroom last June are a reminder that Toronto schools don’t have air conditioning and these are the learning conditions many (most?) students will be in this week. #FixOurSchools

Fixed it

Doug Ford is a fan of Donald Trump. Don’t be fooled by his fake Captain Canada persona.

Worth remembering.

“Tesla’s driverless ‘robotaxis’ could launch in Austin as soon as June 22. But a demo in Austin today showed a $TSLA, manually driven to test its Full Self-Driving system, failed to stop for a child-sized dummy at a school bus—and hit it.” @cbsaustin @velez_tx

Doug Ford is still all for criminalizing homelessness. $10,000 fine &/or imprisonment. This guy took away rent control & refuses to give pwd a livable wage to pay rent & buy food! Ontarians, why did u vote him back in? Why? The coward also was absent on the C-5 vote today! Disgusting pos!

Doug Ford claims they’re moving the Science Centre to Ontario Place because people actually go there. I thought they gave away the land at Ontario Place to Therme because no one was using it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ He has zero respect for Ontarians and is a dangerously stupid, deeply corrupt sham of a man. #StopBill5

While we let drivers control the shitty commute of bus & streetcar riders on Dufferin & Bathurst, & a tiny bike lane on Marlee taken off the books by council, Safe Parkside reports the speed camera has been cut down for a 5th time.

www.ctvnews.ca/toronto/arti... ‘Public Health Ontario says 173 more people have been infected with measles in the province over the past week, bringing the number of cases to 1,795 since the outbreak began last October.’

While you couldn’t pay rent. While you couldn’t afford groceries. Or daycare. Or gas. Or medicine. Poilievre spent $8M+ of taxpayer money (more than double the PM) with $7.3M in fat salaries for his staff. Get this grifting fake out of our lives! #cdnpoli www.ctvnews.ca/politics/art...

And they tell us online scams are getting harder to spot.

A badly needed uplifting read. Thank you Canada! You always make me proud to be North American open.substack.com/pub/shankarn...

Dear Ms. Boebert, FAFO sincerely, Canada ps. if you are so interested we will send you a map of where you can find us. meidasnews.com/news/boebert...

I don't know who faked their way through the debates more... Pierre attempting to be normal or Rebel pretending to be real journalists.

Here’s the thing — Poilievre must know his refusal to do the normal security check and get a security clearance during a sovereignty and security crisis has been badly hurting him with a LOT of voters. His excuse makes no rational, or even strategic sense. So I’m assuming he knows he can’t get it.

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Autism didn’t make them do it. Mental illness didn’t, either. This personal piece from The Big Picture cuts through the excuses and names the real issue: some people are just hateful, and we need to stop giving them cover.

Mark Carney? I ask what experience can he offer Canadians? Sure he's been successful for decades in the private sector. But how does that help him find the Parliament Hill cafeteria? Pierre can do that. And how many bills has Mr Carney passed in the last 20 years? None. That's ONE less than Pierre.

Lawyers have ethical obligations to courts regardless of what their bosses say. If a government lawyer is asked to violate their oath, they should resign. There is no excuse for caving to Trump.

I don't always hide misogynistic tags in my social media, but when I do, I blame a non-existent staffer no one on my team's ever met.

As much as possible Carleton. Vote early anytime at your riding office. Prior to the advance polls these are ‘write in ballots’ so this long list of other candidates doesn’t factor in. www.elections.ca/Scripts/vis/...
