“It said his teachings encouraged discrimination against women, "tensions with the Jewish community" and "jihadist radicalisation". According to the order, he had also referred to Jewish people as "the enemy". So not just flag issue

BC ban on US liquor already getting massive US attention. CNN has US distillers association president on expressing big concern about tariff war impacts on his members! Good move by BC!

If you listen to the extended Trump interview on Air Force One it’s abundantly clear he sees himself as a new emperor bent on adding as much land to US as possible in his term. He’s very very specific about Canada. It may have started as a joke, but he has now convinced himself

I have no problem with Mr. Poilievre moving into 10,000 square foot Stornoway mansion. Or having a private chef. Or free car. Or almost $300,000 salary. All Oppo leaders have before. Just don’t try & pretend you’re living paycheque to paycheque, aren’t an Ottawa Elite. #cdnpoli

Conservative governments run almost all of Canada’s provinces. They’re in charge of policing, mental health, housing, jobs and social services. Why haven’t they solved our homelessness problem? Mental health issues? Crime in the streets? Why haven’t they solved the housing

Very good speech by Manitoba Premier-designate Wab Kinew—and done without notes or a teleprompter, in the great tradition of Indigenous orators. Content, style and “from the heart” factors were all refreshing. Here’s hoping all Manitobans & Canadians will help him succeed.

Danielle Smith is an entertainer, not a serious leader. She’s a huckster, flim flam artist, snake oil salesperson (literally). She’s a natural on tv, like blowhard Trump is. But there’s nothing there. Nothing. How can you debate nothing? Notley’s doing quite well, her character

Alberta Premier, in charge of one of greatest oil deposits in the world, has Grade 1 knowledge of world affairs: 1. Doesn’t know Ukraine gave up nukes for territorial guarantees by Russian, which Russia violated before breakfast; 2. Thinks she can simply annex a piece of BC to

.@ABDanielleSmith on ⁦@630CHED⁩ you say that you support #Ukraine but behind a paywall, on a private website only for your radical supporters, you stoke anger and still have your video up in support of Russia. Sick & conniving! daniellesmith.locals.com/post/2063353/a… #ableg #Yyc #cdnpoli

Fair bit of panic in the air in Alberta UCP circles with the release of a new poll showing NDP leading in even UCP stronghold of south Calgary. NDP still needs to get vote out, but they seem to have some momentum. 400 NDP at a rally in Medicine Hat will freak out UCP war room!

The real objective of Alberta Govt trying to extract the billions of CPP pension $ back to Alberta is to be able to massively invest in oil & gas companies as foreign investors steadily retreat. They retreat primarily because the risk is too high in transition. So Alberta

Cannot remember a more heartless, cold & uncaring Govt response to a crisis as Alta. Danielle Smith govt’s response to this achingly tragic pediatric crisis in Calgary. Not a single Minister, much less Premier, has showed up to console families, or to react appropriately to the

“Over the following days, many passed not just blood but their own flesh as they screamed in pain, unable to sleep for days while others became lethargic and despondent, all of them struggling to make sense of what was going on.” This is absolutely heartbreaking. #abpoli #ableg

Pierre Poilievre would override transplant specialists to give chainsmoking, quart a day whiskey drinking, practicing heroin addicts transplants ahead of your 19-year-old daughter or your Mom. All for ideology. #cdnpoli

Roman Baber regularly excites anti-vaxxers (like here) and assorted conspiracy loons. Pierre Poilievre says he shares Baber's views. Can everyone knock it off with the 'political horse race' shit about polling, and remember again that these Conservatives are fucking nuts?
