As a comms guy, I’m astounded when I see public organizations like the RCMP fuck up messaging this badly. Astounded, but not surprised. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Look, the traitors in Alberta Junior have joined the “independence” bandwagon. Pro tip, losers: you’re also landlocked, and a creation of the Canadian government. You have no rights to leave, but if you did, it would be with nothing. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I lived in the USA as a child and then spent lots of time there during my military career. I will never go back; after the emails I’ve written to members of the current US regime I’d be arrested at the border. Please don’t visit this dictatorship. www.bbc.com/news/article...

One of the many reasons Canada is a successful democracy and the USA has descended into kleptocratic dictatorship is that the USA gives Governors and Presidents the power to pardon criminals, something sane nations like Canada do not.

Yet another formerly respected major media outlet genuflects to a dictator and loses all credibility: www.bbc.com/sport/footba...

I was not a fan of Justin Trudeau’s governance, but I’m loving his post-politics life (he looks pretty happy), especially the fact it must be making the #MapleMAGA crowd livid. www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic...

Comox Tips is happy to announce I was one of the parties who complained about these illegal election signs. Our local BC Conservative MLA has a long record of getting into legal trouble over election signage - and every complaint has been initiated by me. comoxvalleyrecord.com/2025/12/04/c...

CBC’s pic of the BC Conservative “Thanks Rustad” presser is informative: it included moderate centre-right folks but also RWNJ Anna Kindy. Next question: If they let Sturko back in, the moderates are ascendant. If they don’t, the crazy bigots are.

Pro tip, BC Conservative Party MLAs: if you’re going to publicly and en masse ask your leader to resign, you at least need the cajones to actually stand behind your words. Yet another embarrassment from a party that almost formed government [shiver].

Nothing gets me punchier than hearing about the treasonous traitors who tried to overthrow our democracy. Every single one of them should have had their assets seized before they were disenfranchised for life.

The Hegseth killing survivors scandal reminded me of a lesser scandal back when I was at NDHQ during the Harper govt. The CPC tried to get military members to take the blame for a screwup by PMO staff. The CF refused to take the fall. Always fight back. www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politic...

1 in 7 Albertans signed this petition to remain in Canada forever, but meanwhile a tiny fringe group of treasonous conspiracy theorists and bigots are effectively controlling the province’s government.

The USA economy is 10x larger than Canada’s so it’s hard for Canada to do things they notice in this existential fight. US alcohol bans are one thing they notice. It’s no coincidence that the 2 provinces without US alcohol bans are AB and SK - both run by #MapleMAGA. Keep it up, everyone else.

Dictators are afraid of strength and emboldened by flattery. www.bbc.com/news/live/c0...

Canada needs to shield ourselves from the US as much as possible as quickly as possible, before it implodes into civil war. Because America is spiraling downwards at a terrifying rate.

@mark-carney.bsky.social this scumbag needs to be declared Persona Non Grata. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

I’ve worked with a lot of journalists. Mostly they’re underpaid, overworked and trying their best. Politicians like Trump and Poilievre who denigrate them do so because they don’t want legitimate journalism - they want sycophantic propaganda like Fox, Rebel News and Western Standard.

“ #MAGA fake Christian dirtbags file spurious lawsuit likely to be thrown out at first opportunity” www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Municipalities can’t do much about stupid rules from the province and BC Assessment, but they can stop handing out permissive tax exemptions to: *houses of worship that promote bigotry and hate; *speculators who sit on prime land; *non-farmers who claim farm status; *for-profit rentals

As a veteran (21 years Regular CF) I’m disgusted anyone would disrupt a Remembrance Day ceremony. As a communications professional I’m stunned by anyone thinking this is a good strategy. Never do this, and never protest at a politician’s home or go after their family. It makes you look horrible.

Trump is a pedophile, convicted fraudster and rapist, dictator, and existential threat to Canada. Any Canadian who supports him should be treated as a national security risk. www.bbc.com/news/live/c2...

My MP is Aaron Gunn, a far-right SM influencer who has praised Trump, Putin & Musk. He’s my MP cuz this LPC candidate split the vote in a riding that hasn’t gone LPC in over 50 years. I’m nonpartisan & vote strategically. Can someone explain to Jen how another vote split will benefit only the CPC?

If you live in Mission, Duncan or Colwood/Langford, you have some neo-Nazis you need to excise from your communities, permanently. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

In Canada, no elected official has the power to pardon criminals. Because we’re a democracy with rule of law. America was always set up for failure, cuz of structural failures like political pardons, elected judges, no separation of Head of State and Head of Government. www.cbc.ca/news/world/r...

Poilievre has said he wants US-style “castle doctrine” law in Canada. This is what happens with that: dead innocent people. Canada’s current laws allow reasonable, commensurate force to protect one’s home, family and assets. Let’s leave it that way. www.bbc.com/news/article...

He needs to be fired into the sun and anyone who supports him needs to be fired into the sun too. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Me: “Carney’s budget could have reduced the public service further through attrition with no negative impacts.” LWNJ: “You’re a soulless ghoul!” Me: “Carney’s budget should have included solar in the mix.” Partisan hack: “You’re a LWNJ!” 😂😂😂

Public service reductions should have been much deeper and could have been achieved through attrition and ending terms and casuals. Numbers will still remain well above 2016, and when I left the PS in 2016 it was a bloated mess of too much management.

On most of the planet, this guy would be considered a moderate centrist. In America he’s falsely labeled a communist by a regime that is actually fascist.

If you’re a municipal politician, ban AI and data centres in your community ASAP. They create very few jobs but suck up water and electricity. They are not worth it. It’s no surprise that weak, ineffectual Nanaimo Council supports them. cheknews.ca/very-scary-n...

For a dictatorship that claimed it was anti-war, they sure have threatened a lot of wars recently: Greenland, Iran, Venezuela, now Nigeria. Being black, oil-rich, and 55% non-Christian ups the odds this one might happen.

America is a dictatorship, and the likelihood of this regime leaving peacefully hovers around 0%. I’m currently in Europe where most people have already written off the USA and moved on. Canada needs to do the same. www.cbc.ca/news/world/u...

If you’re Canadian, there’s a simple way to avoid this: *never, ever visit the USA. Why give your money to a dictatorship that wants to destroy our economy so it can annex us? www.cbc.ca/news/busines...

Currently in Europe. Great to see that nobody here talks about Trump or his regime. They ignore that fat fuckhead, which is what Canada needs to start doing. We need to drop tariffs on China, buy fighter jets from Sweden, and tell America they can find their potash and electricity somewhere else.

Jamil Jivani has been a cancer on Canadian politics since Day 1. Now he’s added Charlie Kirk BS to his “Christians are being persecuted” BS. How TF did the voters of Oakville think this guy was a good idea? www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Something has to give in the BC Conservatives, and it’s either going to be the rest of the moderates in the party, or Rustad. A party with a leader that allowed the explicit venom, racism and bigotry of Brent Chapman and many others was never going to be a successful “big tent” party.

The BC Conservative bloodbath continues. Rustad is an embarrassment. The number of bigots, racists and conspiracy theorists in that party is significant. Let’s hope Warbus, Day, Paton and the other non- #MapleMAGA MLAs follow Boultbee out the door.

The Trump regime is turning America into a lot of things: dictatorship, kleptocracy, idiocracy, but also a Christian theocracy. Here in Canada, half of us are non-Christian (in my town 70% of us are). It’s crucial for democracy that Canada doesn’t follow the USA down the road to theocracy.

A troll of major US media shows that the majority grossly downplayed #NoKings Day, the largest protest in US history. That means the majority of US residents will not even know it happened, because most people are that unaware. And that’s what those fighting for US democracy are up against.

When your regime posts AI videos of your dictator bombing peaceful protesters with literal shit, you have a very serious problem that is probably not going to be resolved through the normal democratic process.

Seeing some Americans on here bitching about Kings in general cuz it’s #NoKings Day. Please don’t confuse your dictator and the many successful and very democratic constitutional monarchies worldwide: Canada, Australia, NZ, UK, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, NL, Belgium, etc. Notice a trend there?

I’m no fan of RCMP leadership, but being defamed by a politician who explicitly supported the traitors who tried to overthrow our democracy is pretty rich. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Let’s be clear. If you think chemtrails are a thing, you are a complete and utter moron. Any organization anywhere with any senior member espousing chemtrails is unfit to exist.

As a former military Public Affairs Officer who worked with a lot of journalists, I support this pushback. The US DOD is now the tool of a dictatorship. www.cbc.ca/news/world/p...

Maybe we’re reading too much into this, but moderate centre-right BC Conservative MLA (and friend of Elenore Sturko) Brennan Day just changed his profile pic from him and John Rustad walking together to this. 🧐🤷‍♂️ @jenstden.bsky.social @cbcstephenquinn.bsky.social @rayneenovak.bsky.social

It’s probably not a surprise to anyone that young Republicans in the USA are as physically, mentally, and emotionally ugly as they turned out to be in this article. America is fucked.

Lots of talk right now about the UCP government in Alberta funding private schools. But here in BC our NDP government gives $$$ to private schools. Wanna send your kids to private school? PAY YOUR OWN WAY. No matter what province you live in. www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/...

Solar is the future. This AB city’s choice is between a strategic investment with strong profit potential, or using their $78M energy profits nest egg to *subsidize future property tax bills* 😳 I have low expectations of today’s voters, everywhere, so suspect they will choose the latter.

How long before some states try to leave the Union that is now a dictatorship? Are we approaching Civil War 2.0, except this time the seceding states are the good guys?

Aaron Gunn-racist, bigot, Putin and Trump fan-is my MP. He’s got a massive SM presence and posts a lot of garbage like this, which is grossly factually incorrect but appeals to his uneducated, unintelligent base. Canada, we have a democracy problem when people like this are 1 election from power.
