REPOST if you are proud to stand with #Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney! 🇨🇦 🍁 ❤️

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left." It’s between democracy and oligarchy. The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power.

It’s our election day. It’s our day to show the world Canada’s decency, compassion and strength. It’s our day to show our children that Canada is owned only by them. That’s the Canada our parents gave us. Today is our day to pay it forward. #Vote #ViveLeCanada #LongLiveCanada

Hey Canada, vote accordingly

Ignore what they say. Pay attention to what they do. You don't make America "healthy" by eliminating food protections, stopping FDA inspections, cutting research on vaccines, and censoring disease reports. You make corporations richer and Americans sicker. gizmodo.com/as-rfk-crusa...

As polls narrow, it is up to everyone who has a progressive bone in their body—looking at NDP and Green past voters—and Liberals to get out to vote and make sure that the Liberal candidates in their ridings win. The damage to all Canadians, if Poilievre wins, is irreparable. #CanadaStrong #CDNpoli

Though a clear majority of people worldwide support strong action on climate change, they believe they are in the minority — leading to poor progress on the issue. Activating this majority could be key to ending this crisis www.nationalobserver.com/2025/04/22/a...

Autism isn’t an epidemic. It's not a disease. It’s a natural variation in how people think…which, frankly, is a relief in a world where most people don't think at all.

PAY ATTENTION: PP is trying to do the exact same thing here in canada with his promises to use the notwithstanding clause. Driven by Harper and IDU, his policies are premeditated ultimately to end in authoritarian rule. DONT FORGET TO VOTE! #neverCONServative #NeverPoiLIEvre #IDU #voteliberal

Shocks me sometimes that many people don't remember Pollievre's ties to Rebel and Levant.

Trump's autocratic repeal of environmental regulations isn't legal. He says “Notice and comment is unnecessary because I am ordering the repeal." But "Legal experts called that sentence astonishing and contrary to decades of federal law." They note that... 1/3 www.nytimes.com/2025/04/11/c...

Muzzle the scientists. Pierre Poilievre "echoes rhetoric used by U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration to justify canceling research grants and shutting down government programs—has alarmed many researchers." #cdnpoli www.science.org/content/arti...

Memo to @cnn.com, @msnbc.com, @nbcnews.com, @cbsnews.com, et al.: A lie is not "the other side of the story." It's not a legitimate rebuttal. It's not "another view" and it's really not a "conflicting perspective." It's just a lie. Say it. Get it right.
