Mark Carney On the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and 2SLGBTQI+ People, we honour the survivors, those taken, and everyone whose life has been changed by the MMIWG2S+ crisis in Canada.

Danielle Smith & her UCP government support separatists. #Canada #Alberta #cdnpoli #ableg #abpoli #yyc #yeg #DoxxingAB

Great choice! Her Task Force on Federally Sentenced Women revolutionized federal corrections for women, implementing a women-centered approach focused on empowerment, dignity, and choice. It led to the closure of the Prison for Women & the creation of regional facilities & Indigenous healing lodges.

The country that invented modern peacekeeping just made a peacemaker its military commander-in-chief

The NDP has released a statement detailing how the president of the UCP as well as Danielle Smith's own Director of Stakeholder Relations knew about the data breach, including Jason Kenney's own personal info and allegedly did nothing. Complete with screenshots. #abpoli #ableg

The UCP knew about the data breach & did nothing?!? While journalists & the NDP reported the breach to authorities, it appears that the UCP Party President and Smith's Director of Stakeholder Relations knew that the breach had occurred and did nothing? #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Burn, baby, burn.... BTW, who is giving #PeePee makeup lessons - Orange Monster? The face looks like burnt shit. So funny, every time he thinks he's got a zinger, PM Carney buries him.... #cdnpoli

SCARBOROUGH: I can't figure out why Trump continues to try to save Putin. The guy who's invaded Ukraine, Georgia, wants to invade other European countries. Donald Trump and Republican Party are on the wrong side of history. And who's stepping up? Canadians, Europeans, British.

Trump can shitcan the "all the cards" nonsense. Zelensky is now providing drone protection to our troops & allies, Russia's oil facilities are burning. Europe just ponied up $100 billion to finish the job. US support diminishes daily so Trump loses leverage. Soon Zelensky can tell him to fuck off.

And this was again supposed to be three-day conflict, with Russian troops and Russian columns at Polish border within two weeks. That is nothing short of breathtaking state of affairs. That is development very few people in analytic community saw coming.

MICHAEL WEISS: Ukraine is not losing war. Ukraine is winner on global stage. United States has to appreciate that. Even Russians beginning to appreciate it. When Zelenskyy can threaten Russia and say, “You guys afraid of having proper Victory Day parade on Red Square because of fear of our drones.”

7 people yesterday in Merefa, just outside Kharkiv; 12 people just now in Zaporizhzhia; 5 in Kramatorsk. These are not separate instances, but one single campaign of terror, and it must be reported as such.

Would be cool if media outlets would do their job and start reporting on the Russian mass slaughter of Ukrainians over the last few days, with them randomly throwing missiles and drones at our towns and cities onto busy streets, in broad daylight, to maximize casualties with zero military objectives

Same happening in Ontario - We need the Feds to finally force all Provincial Premiers use federal transfers as intended. @mark-carney.bsky.social @markgerretsen.bsky.social @tylerwatt.bsky.social We have rights under the "Healthcare Act" yet NO ONE is helping taxpayers💢 Private HC will wipe out 🍁

8/8 The stakes are incredibly high. 👉 Alberta risks losing over $7 billion in federal health transfers for 2026-2027 if Ottawa decides to withhold funding over these glaring infractions. Source: Alyssa Pretty, Friends of Medicare www.friendsofmedicare.org/bill_11_lega...

7/8 The spotlight now turns to Ottawa. 👉 Jason MacLean of the Canadian Health Coalition is urging Health Minister Marjorie Michel, the self-proclaimed "Guardian of the Canada Health Act," to move past diplomatic engagement and firmly enforce the law against Alberta's violations.

6/8 "Bill 11 is entrenching legislated 'queue-jumping,'" Gallaway warns. 👉 The legislation blatantly violates long-standing prohibitions against extra-billing and user fees, dismantling the pillars of comprehensiveness, accessibility, and universality.

5/8 For patients on the ground, the fear is palpable and immediate. Chris Gallaway, executive director of Friends of Medicare, notes that Albertans are terrified of a reality where wealthier individuals can simply buy their way to the front of the line.

4/8 The core philosophy of Canada's public system is that care should be allocated based on urgent physical need, not the size of a patient's bank account. 👉 Introducing private payment for required services inevitably leads to preferential access, contradicting this value.

3/8 The findings from Goldblatt Partners LLP are unequivocal. 👉 "This is the most extensive privatization of payment for medically necessary services in Canada since the Canada Health Act was enacted in 1984," writes legal expert Emma Phillips.

2/8 Enacted in late 2025, the Health Statutes Amendment Act fundamentally alters the landscape of Canadian medical care. 👉 By establishing a legal framework for physicians to engage in dual practice, it opens the floodgates to an unprecedented shift in how treatment is accessed.

1/8 🇨🇦 ALBERTA'S BILL 11 VIOLATES THE CANADA HEALTH ACT 🇨🇦 A thorough legal review confirms Premier Danielle Smith’s push for dual practice paves the way for a two-tier medical system based on wealth, not need. Source: Friends of Medicare #MedSky #CdnPoli #AbLeg #AbPoli #AbHealth #Bill11 #Medicare

us announces “project freedom" and sends destroyers into the strait. iran responds with missiles and drones. that’s not a misunderstanding, that’s strategy. @gzeromedia.com

They needed 178000 because the Premier changed the rules to accommodate them. Indigenous peoples are still fighting the legality of the referendum in court. #ableg #cndpoli

#cdnmedia please take note. It’s always good to take a moment and understand what you are reporting. Taking information from Opposition (particularly our current Opposition) is a bad and sloppy practice.

Congratulations to the Honourable Louise Arbour, who will serve as Canada’s 31st Governor General.

When did Conservatives around the world become so mind numbingly stupid? I mean what the hell? Was it a virus or something?

Arbour also tried to address & push for independent investigations into atrocities committed by Israel and Hamas as the UN Human Rights chief. She pushed so hard and pointed out atrocities so often than Conservative Minister Vic Toews called her a "disgrace" when she stepped down from the UN post.

Today is Red Dress Day, a time to honour the lives of missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, and Two-Spirit people across Canada. May 5 is a powerful reminder of the ongoing violence faced by Indigenous communities and our shared responsibility to work toward justice, healing, and change.

It’s extremely concerning to witness the bizarre, erratic, lawless behavior of Mr Trump. Wild narcissism. Inventing new realities. Threatening and violent language. Two more years. Our national security in great danger.

“As Mary Simon has, Louise Arbour will represent the best of Canada to Canadians & to the world,” he added. “A country that’s a bastion of security, prosperity & justice. A beacon to a world lost at sea. A Canada that is clear-eyed about the challenges we face & steadfast in the values we uphold.”

PM Carney on the international order being rebuilt out of Europe: "A belief in democracy, the rule of law, that we're all equal before that law ... Canada, the EU, the UK, Australia, other countries share very firm convictions with those principles and we will work together to rebuild."

Debt, eh? Debt from him squatting in Stornoway for four months? Debt from an unnecessary by-election because he couldn't accept defeat and do the right thing as in retire from politics? Debt from his salary he collects while campaigning?

French speakers please listen to her

Louise Arbour has been named the new Governor General of Canada. She is the fifth woman to serve as Governor General, and the sixth Governor General born in Quebec. Arbour is also the first former Supreme Court Justice to serve as Governor General. 📸 Sean Kilpatrick

www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/news... As 🇨🇦 next Governor General, Louise Arbour will represent the best of 🇨🇦 to our citizens & to the world – a 🇨🇦 clear-eyed about the challenges we face, and steadfast in the values we uphold. A 🇨🇦 that is not just strong, but good. A 🇨🇦 that is not just prosperous, but fair.

Interesting. This must be a new kind of chess where you compete to put the pieces back where they were before you smacked them off the board.

O'Leary is an unusually pompous, obnoxious Trump suck-up who is now destroying Utah.

My latest for Global News. Alberta voter list leak is a potential public safety disaster: enforcement experts | Globalnews.ca globalnews.ca/news/1182824...

Possibly the best thing that’s happened to 🇨🇦Canada in the past 12 months is petulant piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre’s sustained grip on the Conservative Party leadership, ensuring that that weird collection of yahoos is kept miles away from power. 🤷🏼🤭🤷🏼

"Comparable democracies ... all subject political parties to comprehensive privacy laws. Instead of following suit, Canada’s Bill C-25 is currently slated to require only a minimal list of elements political parties’ privacy policies should include, with no binding external review or oversight"

😳

For those who think this isn’t a big deal, let’s live in an alternate universe: the provincial Green Party (or the NDP for that matter) leak the voter list to Greenpeace to influence a vote on the energy sector. Not a big deal? #ABleg globalnews.ca/news/1182824...

Smith is so high on power she thinks she can dodge this data breach by hiding behind "process." 3 million people were personally exposed. If she doesn't stop the games and act, her career is over. Like the pandemic, everyone is watching. It's personal. Right now no one is winning. #ableg #abpoli
