To quote Cons themselves, Jivani needs to “get out of the way” and let the elected government handle trade talks. His comments to Brietbart are all the evidence we need to see he (like most Cons) is in it for himself. #CDNpoli

Nothing satisfies me more than CBCNN having audio issues with Poilievre 2 days in a row during his daily rage farming rants. Thank you! #CDNpoli

The weasel Poilievre continues to work against our national interests in favour of his own - continuing to offer zero solutions. All you need from his “scathing” letter: “Poilievre's letter didn't say what he would do differently from Carney and his negotiation team…” #CDNpoli #neverpoiLiEvre

I literally have to turn off CBC News every morning because Pierre Poilievre’s endless whining and victim-chasing press ops kill the vibe before my day even begins. #CDNpoli #neverpoiLIEvre

I was up before the seals were today and took a daybreak stroll along the Stanley Park seawall. This harbour seal gave me side eye. #yvr #vancouver #stanleypark #harbourseals

Met some brilliantly entertaining Coronation Street cast this Sunday. Learned: 1) Don’t do an edible before meeting soap stars 2) Stop shaking hands like a pickpocket 3) Classy afternoons belong with Ayikipism #CoronationStreet #Vancouver #BritishColumbia #CBC #Corrie #yvr

Thank you @mtltoula.bsky.social & @cultmtl.com for exposing this. Voters who are typically undecided need reminding: after taking the easiest seat in the country, Poilievre shows he’ll never have the integrity to lead Canada. He serves himself, not you. #CDNpoli #TransRightsAreHumanRights #NeverPP

Had an amazing time at Cyndi Lauper’s Farewell Tour in Vancouver last night. Nostalgia mixed with new appreciation for a true icon who still commands the stage. 🌈 #yvr #vancouver #CyndiLauper #FarewellTour #VancouverEvents #MusicIcons

Just one day after re-election, Poilievre is already back on the campaign trail—working for himself, not Canada. Weasels will be weaseling. #cdnpoli #Canada #Poilievre #neverpoiLIEvre

“Never before has a Canadian politician shared so much disinformation unchecked. As Pierre Poilievre tries to weasel his way back into Parliament, our legacy media still refuses to call out his lies or question his ties to Canada Proud, who ran disinformation campaigns targeting our prime minister.”

What a show last night from NIN in Vancouver! #yvr #Vancouver #NIN #Canada #BritishColumbia @nin.com

It was another beautiful sunset on Vancouver’s English Bay last night. 🇨🇦 #yvr #Vancouver #BritishColumbia #Canada #EnglishBay #sunset

I’ve noticed the same change in my behaviour: "Shopping this way makes me stop and think, 'Do I really need this?' It has encouraged me to take a step outside the consumer culture, and that is good for my bank account and for my mental/spiritual well-being." #CDNpoli #ElbowsUp #CanadaStrong

It was a gorgeous night in Vancouver with the moon shining over English Bay. 🇨🇦 #yvr #Vancouver #Canada #BritishColumbia #moonlight #summer

As we rally around Colbert’s unjust treatment by Trump & Paramount, don’t miss Alan Cumming’s guest-host turn on Kimmel. A masterclass in amplifying marginalized voices. Required viewing. #2SLGBTQIA #MediaJustice #TransRights #AlanCumming #Kimmel #CDNpoli #Colbert

Moving day: chaos. Still haven’t sorted the bedroom, so crashing on the couch—but with this view of the West End, I’m not complaining. Grateful for this city and the friends who helped make it home. #YVR #Vancouver #WestEnd #Canada #MovingDay #Gratitude #CityViews

It costs over $600K/mo to keep an unelected person without security clearance, serving no purpose to Canadians and driven by their own self-interests housed in Stornoway. Spare me the “holier than thou” routine. #CDNpoli #neverpoiLIEvre #poilievre

Rewatching Extrapolations (Scott Z. Burns, Apple TV) and it’s chilling how accurately it foresaw the chaos we’re now living post-Trump 2.0. What once felt like fiction is now a mirror. Canada needs grown-up allies. 🇨🇦 #CDNpoli #ClimateCrisis #Trump #Extrapolations @mark-carney.bsky.social

It’s becoming painfully clear: good people are being harmed—by America and its ‘gods’. How many more must die before we say enough? It’s time to turn our backs on their hate, their pulpits, and their silence permanently. #CDNpoli #2SLGBTQIA #LGBTQ #TransLivesMatter #EndHate

Meet the military trailblazer-turned-political candidate looking to take down Pierre Poilievre in the Battle River-Crowfoot byelection... #cdnpoli

This brought a grin to my face today: "I think that we have something very unique here that we don't have anywhere else," said Dean Lucas, founder of Freedom Culinary Culture. "With our communities, we have so many stories." #Canada #NovaScotia #CDNpoli #Halifax

I turn 49 on July 1 and the meaning of sharing a birthday with “Canada Day” has changed over my lifetime. I started my learning with ‘21 Things You May Not Know About the Indian Act’ by Bob Joseph. As you celebrate tomorrow, make a plan to learn: #LandBack #CDNpoli #CanadaDay #Reconciliation

Frustrated after posting this article. Biden objected to the DST in 2022—this convo would happen under Harris too. Implementing it now would stall talks with any admin. Carney didn’t hand Trump a win—we’re watching the move, not the game. Let’s focus on policy, not caricatures. #CDNpoli #DST

Rescinding the DST is fair to question, but let’s not roast Carney mid-negotiation. I’ll wait for the deal before judging tactics. Meanwhile, Poilievre’s out campaigning again—maybe pundits should focus there. #CDNpoli #TradeTalks #DigitalTax #Poilievre

After 2 moves in 18 months thanks to landlords cashing out, I’ve finally signed a lease back on English Bay. The rental market is brutal, and single-income renters are left hanging—but tonight, I’m home. 🌊 #VanRent #CDNpoli #YVR #Vancouver #EnglishBay #RentersRights #RainCity

The EU President greeting PM Carney with grace and vision is the kind of diplomacy we’ve missed. Canada’s back at the big table—meanwhile, south of the border it’s still karaoke night at the apocalypse. #CDNpoli #EU #LeadershipMatters #GlobalAllies

“Figures show Canada is well behind — just 3.5 per cent of Canadian housing is social housing, compared to an average eight per cent across Europe, and closer to 30 per cent in places like Austria and the Netherlands.” #CDNpoli #yvr #Vancouver #Housing #HousingCrisis @davidebybc.bsky.social

Let's keep building a stronger, fairer, and more inclusive Canada for everyone.

“For starters, whether fairly or unfairly, many voters have concluded that Poilievre is acrimonious to the core — maple sugar MAGA. Better at pushing voters away than attracting them.” #CDNpoli #poilievrelost #neverpoiLIEvre @thetyee.ca

“It should be obvious by now that neither Justin Trudeau nor the carbon tax had any impact on your grocery bills. Corporate greed and government ignoring its regulatory responsibilities have.” #CDNpoli #Greed #Weston #yvr @cultmtl.com

“Stigma, gender bias and low health literacy are long-standing barriers that often prevent men from seeking care until it's too late, the report's authors said. The impact extends to families, communities and the economy.” #menshealth #movember #health #yvr #vancouver #cbc

Just watched Boston Dynamics on AGT S20E3 and was blown away—not just by the dancing robots, but the brilliant woman presenting them. This is what representation in STEM looks like. Young girls watching: the future is you. #WomenInTech #AGT #STEM #BostonDynamics #Canada

Smoked a Harrelson cigarette, became a raccoon with a smartphone, and tried to photograph the moon over Vancouver last night. She blinked. This is what I got. 🌕 #yvr #Vancouver #BritishColumbia #Canada #Moon #Raccoons

“In this time, Canada will always stand up for the vulnerable and the equal rights we cherish. We can take pride in how far we've come but we should also recognize there's far more to do." #CDNpoli #Pride #2SLGBTQIA #LGBTQ #gaysky

It is such a beautiful weekend here in Vancouver, BC! 🇨🇦 Perfect time for a stroll through Stanley Park with a stop at Beaver Lake. #yvr #Vancouver #BritishColumbia #Canada

I was going to throw on CNN so I could watch the Trump/Musk post-divorce fight in real time, but Jake Tapper is on so will have to get my updates here. 🍿 #CNN #tRUMP #TACO @cnn.com @cnn-news.bsky.social @jaketapper.bsky.social

It was a beautiful sunset in Vancouver this evening. #yvr #vancouver #britishcolumbia #canada #sunset #westcoast

If you were wondering what it would look like if Poilievre was PM, you have to do nothing more than look south of the border. #CDNpoli #neverpoiLIEvre #fundtheCBC #CBC

New Music Alert! “GERM” by Kate Nash is the anthem for Pride Month. Raw, bold & trans-affirming. Kate’s last tour spotlighted trans talent — allyship in action. Crank it. Share it. LIVE it. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ #Pride2025 #TransRightsAreHumanRights #KateNash #NewMusic #Pride #gaysky #yvr #vancouver

Happy Pride Month from Vancouver BC to all my 2SLGBTQIA+ fam coast to coast! In a time of rising hate, we rise stronger—together. Rights won can be rights lost. Stay loud. Stay proud. Watch over each other. #yvr #vancouver #PrideMonth #ProtectTransRights #PRIDE #2SLGBTQIA #gaysky

Had a wonderful afternoon at the Vancouver Art Gallery and got to visit my favourite Emily Carr painting “Scorned as Timber, Beloved of Sky”. #yvr #vancouver @vanartgallery.bsky.social #VAG #emilycarr

What a great moment. It must be humbling to thank citizens of your riding for electing you to a seat in parliament and trusting you to represent them. (*looks at Pierre) #CDNpoli #neverpoiLIEvre #PierreLOST

“Hungary’s parliament passed legislation in March to ban the annual Pride march there and allow police to use facial recognition cameras to identify people who attend.” #CDNpoli #LGBTQ+ #LGBTQnews

Credit bureaus like Equifax hold too much unchecked power in Canada. Anyone using credit data—like landlords—should also be required to report payment history to help build scores. Fairness must go both ways. #CDNpoli #Equifax #Credit

Jagmeet Singh’s loss was years in the making—as a former riding resident other locals and I saw through the absentee act. Now Poilievre’s being parachuted into a safe seat? That’s not leadership, that’s hiding. Battle River–Crowfoot, you deserve better. #CDNpoli #neverpoilIEvre #PPLost

"Move on. If the Canadians want to keep talking about it — that's their business.” Hoekstra is as tone deaf as his supreme leader. #CDNpoli #ElbowsUp #Hoekstra

When I tell you what I am looking for in a man, this is what I really mean. #gaysky #yvr #vancouver #breakfast

My new Grindr handle: #yvr #vancouver #grindr #gayguy #gay

Hosted my monthly movie night for clients of Friends For Life in Vancouver. This month’s surprise gem: My Old Ass. Aubrey Plaza lured us in, but Maisy Stella (in her 1st lead!) & Percy Hynes White stole the show. #yvr #Vancouver #MyOldAss #VolunteerLife #FriendsforLife #community

Not that I’ve missed Dimples at all, but shouldn’t a leader who won their seat be the one criticizing cabinet picks? Wondering what exactly Kurek is getting for giving up his seat to someone so unlikable they need a seat handed to them. #CDNpoli #poilievreLOST #neverpoiLIEvre
