Canada's position in the world has never been stronger and we have America right where we want them: We are now in the position to threaten to withhold season 2 of Heated Rivalry.

On my way to Toronto for #CPSA2025. I'm so excited to introduce @jonathanmalloy.bsky.social 's presidential address on June 3 (5-6pm)

now that that's done... who's going to put their name forward for speaker of the house? My guess is d'Entremont

American debates need an equivalent of BQ. Like let the governor of a random state just be like “what will you do for Idaho?”

the last question should just be "Name a woman"

Secretly wishing they had cut away from the debate to cover this live…

The problem here is that voters are not getting any information they can actually understand or make sense of. 200K homes or 6 homes? Voters don’t get this and this is how polarization grows. #debate2025

If cabinet size is on your mind today I wrote about it ten years ago - www.revparlcan.ca/en/vol38-no3...

The @ecpr.bsky.social Gender Study 2024 just came in. I am shocked by the numbers. Especially dramatic is the percentage of women authors published in ECPR-journals: 26% in 2024, compared to 35% in 2023. Please, don't try to fix the women, fix the @##$! system.

I don't know how many political staffers are unionized, but I'd wager very few. I wish I would've had the knowledge I have now back when I worked at City Hall in Calgary.

No payment for access, Smith said. "I was a guest of Kevin O'Leary," Smith said. "He invited me to join him."

hedge your bets for which comes first: Ontario provincial election or federal election

Yeah I do think there's a strong argument to be made that if it's antidemocratic to prorogue right now, it's also antidemocratic to force Canadians into an election where they don't even know the name of who is leading one of the main parties they might vote for!

hoping a @jlisayoung.bsky.social flowchart comes soon!!

🧵The University of Alberta has announced it is shifting from “EDI” to “access, community and belonging.” Based on my experiences researching inequality in higher education in Alberta, this is unlikely to have any benefits other than to appease the UCP.
