Time for a National Emergency? #cdnpoli

Is there a petition going to demand that PP get security clearance, and that any incoming prime minister must get security clearance??!!

So, Danielle Smith ASKED for foreign interference in our election? Sell-out So Danielle Smith ASKED for foreign interference in out federal election??? The word traitor doesn't do this act justice. Treasonous does. Will the RCMP investigate? l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http...

Today I lost an NIH grant training clinicians to do research about intimate partner violence with perinatal women. More women are murdered in the perinatal period than die of obstetric complications. I didn't just lose a grant. We lost an entire cohort of people building careers to prevent that.

When you look at polls and learn that 21% of Conservatives want to join the US, DO NOT IGNORE THIS! A vote for PP is a vote for someone who will sell us out. Do not place your trust in this man.

Lockheed Martin is scared shitless of losing this contract. Fuck them ! Go with SAAB (preferably), BAE, or Dussault. Anyone but a Yank manufacturer ! www.theglobeandmail.com/world/articl...

Absolutely obscene. Five Republicans in Minnesota want to add "Trump derangement syndrome" to the state's definition of mental illness, in a bill scheduled for introduction Monday. "Trump derangement syndrome" has been used by President Donald Trump and his supporters to hit back at his critics.

We just wanted to take a moment to thank all our new supporters! Tomorrow, there will be more of us!

From Sue Otte's FB page. Appears true, although the age of the child is not clear. Occurred in Postville, Iowa. She reports that ICE removed both parents but left their child alone. The community is mobilizing and the child is being cared for, but this is horrendous.

That is both messed up and disgraceful! You can’t just delete history! Arlington National Cemetery has removed information about prominent Black, Hispanic, and female service members, as well as topics such as the Civil War, from its website.

Wonder if Danielle Smith's acts can be considered treasonous?

Look what's happening at the French Embassy in Washington DC.

Absolutely disgusted at PP's speech this afternoon. Instead of doing his part to establish a common front, he chose to go back to his tired playbook--whining about "Justin". At least he's shown--again--his true colours (and they appear to be red, white---and blue).

A bullying U.S. A fractured world. A chance for Canadian trade to show its quality The latest from the Globe's business commentary, by Kevin Yin:

Trump's SAVE requires a person's surname on their birth certificate to match theirs as an adult to vote. Surname change at marriage is not exempt from this rule. If you think Canadians are immune to this sort of act, think again. Ford and PP and support the author of this executive order.

It’s even worse. Poilievre shows up in Iqaluit and doesn’t let anyone know, including the Premier of Nunavut. As Marc Miller puts it, “You can’t secure the Arctic without the Inuit.”

Trump likes to tear up agreements? OK, then we should start by also tearing up our agreement to buy 88 F-35s. We can buy aircraft from France or Sweden instead; maybe make a deal with them to build some manufacturing facilities here in Canada.

No shit........

Supporting Canadian should also extend to the media we consume. Postmedia is majority owned by a Republican-connected US hedge fund thanks to legislation the Conservatives pushed through AFTER they lost in 2015. It was a Republican takeover of Canadian media. #Canada #BuyCanadian #cdnpoli

Here's a fact most Americans don't know: The Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) is the largest purchaser of wine by dollar value in the world. The LCBO has shut the flow of all American beer, wine, spirits. We will drink "Freedom wines" from our allies and beer from our communities.

Canadian Peeps: We need a broad-based CANADIAN econ platform that allows Canadian business and artisans to market their work. ETSY is useless and is incredibly expensive for sellers. How do we do this?

Ontario's pat flies in the face of research and common sense. www.thestar.com/news/canada/...

True story.

Good one.

I heard RFK Jr. is floating the banning of the polio vaccine so seems like a good time to remind folks that RFK Jr. was vaccinated with this same vaccine & therefore is at no risk of harm himself Kinda like when he publicly was against the covid vaccine yet privately required his guests to have it🙃

Long, but well worth the time. www.michaelmoore.com/p/a-manifest...

www.thestar.com/opinion/star... Goes to the gist of it.

Can't wait to watch Mitch McConnell vote in favor of RFK Jr.'s nomination to be the head of HHS along with his lawyer who sued the FDA to revoke the polio vaccine's approval. Mitch McConnell suffered from polio as a child. Watch, he'll vote for RFK Jr. anyway.

All I want for Christmas is for the media to add the Bluesky Butterfly "Share" button on each article beside the X, FB, and other buttons.

FUN FACT: Measles, polio, diphtheria, mumps, rubella and tetanus are six once-common illnesses that vaccines have contained for decades, saving many millions of lives.

I love how Poilievre suddenly thinks a temporary tax cut will be inflationary but his permanent proposed tax cut isn’t. Maybe he’s admitting how TINY the price on carbon is comparatively and how negligible an effect on finances it would have. 👋🏽🤡 /2

As I have somehow surpassed 7k followers on here I thought it might be nice to do a giveaway: All 7 of my books to one lovely winner. Just share and like to be in with a chance! 😁📚

Trump's threats are an attempt at economic bullying. I've dealt with bullies all my life. And, the way to deal with them is to show strength. I've called for Canada to establish a Jobs War Room, to protect Canadian workers and families. Protecting good, Canadian jobs has to be the priority.

He hasn't lost his mind. He's using the exact same tactics that worked a treat for the right-wing extremists in the US, and at this point it looks like a large percentage of Canadians are going to fall right in line with that.

This is nothing short of a full-out attack on Canadian workers. The Prime Minister is going to have to get his head out of the sand. Stand up and fight like hell. Canadian jobs are on the line.

My loves, the tariffs are punishment. He will then make a big dog & pony show about Poilievre being the one to negotiate them and try and blame this on Trudeau. It is fascism. Trump and Polievre are on the same team.

Facts matter. Science saves lives. Anti-science destroys them.

We’re not going back.

Scurvy is making a comeback in parts of Canada- fully preventable with good diets that include Vitamin C. What’s going on? ⁦‪ @ctvnews-rss.bsky.social ‬⁩ ⁦‪@allisonbamford‬⁩ www.ctvnews.ca/health/scurv...
