Conservative governments love to talk about cutting 'red tape' and shrinking the size of government. They rarely talk about the cost of doing this -- one that's being inflicted on children in Calgary right now.

Sometimes, less isn't more. #cdnpoli nationalobserver.com/2023/09/18/opi…

As we spend more time indoors, you can use protective measures like staying home when sick, wearing a well-fitting mask, improving indoor ventilation and regularly cleaning your hands to help protect your family and yourself from the #flu , #RSV , #Covid19 . ow.ly/zmUJ50PG5zw

Seems like Albertans need to come together and vote for what they want, not what successive conservative govts have been telling them they want. Until they speak with their votes all Cdns will continue to suffer from the greed and ignorance of the UCP and CPC.

Pierre Trudeau once remarked (paraphrased) to a reporter that the reason he wasn’t “hard” on Clarke during Clarke’s short stint as PM, was that he thought maybe Clarke might have some ideas that were good for the country and he thought he should actually listen.

Doug Ford The Canada Ontario Housing Benefit is part of a Federal Funding agreement announced when the National Housing Strategy was launched. It took two years of negotiating to get the Ford Govt on side.

That’s Michael de Adder 's Take: #cdnpoli

'For now, the country doesn’t know if it has the organ grinder, or the organ grinder’s monkey.'
I disagree. We already know that Poilievre is the monkey. His makeover & a $30M ad buy won't change that fact.

'Say goodbye to the big Conservative tent which has turned into a small flag-draped house with a white picket fence.'

Yesterday one heard a clip on CBC Radio of Pierre Poilievre telling the Prime Minister that education is an exclusive provincial jurisdiction and he should butt out of the phoney rage-farming debate over ‘parental rights’.
Is that the same piffleswipe who’s promising in the…

In Richmond, Pierre Poilievre posed for a photo with a member of a protest group funded by Guo Wengui and Steve Bannon. #cdnpoli

Conservative ignorance on climate change is a threat to Canadians & the economy.

I was in the NWT last week speaking with Canadians who lost everything.

Meanwhile, Poilievre reschedules the climate-denial rally he had to postpone due to wildfires in the Yukon.

Who is funding Pierre Poilievre? This needs to be investigated. Canadians demand answers.

This week, we celebrate the progress made in advancing gender equality and reaffirm our commitment to building a more equitable, just, and inclusive Canada. Read Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s statement on #GenderEqualityWeek : ow.ly/lKBo50PMtv7

A political leader that tells you they will politically interfere in the Public Health authority, the Public broadcaster, the judiciary and the central bank - all of which Polievre has done - isn’t a democratic political leader, they’re either a communist or an authoritarian.

Canada is one of the world’s strongest democracies - and our electoral institutions are a model for the world. On International Day of Democracy, we’ll continue to promote and defend the democratic rights of people around the world.

Where's the audience?
Where's the media?
Who is he talking to (as he looks from side to side)?

This man isn't a leader. He's a performer.

I ask again, whose 'photo op'?

Robert Fife Ah Fife. Wrong on Maher Arar. Wrong on SNC. Wrong on the We charity. Unproven on foreign influence. Why does this guy still have a job?

Excellent segment just now. Love the new panel for Friday's on Power & Politics - THIS panel manages to bring diverse perspectives without use of ad hominin in arguing their POV. More of this please CBC News (I plan to email CBC since they're not monitoring Twitter/X).

No apologies for wanting Canada to be the country that turns back the tide of right wing populism that’s sweeping the globe.

We matter to the world in very important ways. Don’t let anyone tell you differently.

We’re the biggest block of dark green left on the planet.
