If you had the choice to keep on wearing a mask and ending COVID sooner, or not wearing masks, and making COVID drag on forever, and you chose the latter, don't complain now... The rest of us were forced to live with your decision don't want to hear it.

11. If it is "unfair", it is because YOU made it so. We can't keep going around changing the formula to maximize the benefit to just your two provinces each and every time oil booms then busts. Your options: Plan better for each or ride the wave like the rest of us. #CdnPoli

Dear @theJagmeetSingh Instead of behaving like a Harper Conservative and relentless attacking the PM, wouldn't a smarter strategy for the #NDP (and 🇨🇦) be to relentlessly make the case that the #CPC doesn't deserve to be Canada's natural government-in-waiting party? #CdnPoli

Frankly, it's none of your (or mine, for that matter) fucking business who the Mulroney family allows to speak or not at the funeral of a family member, and there's no reason whatsoever for you to have either an opinion, or any feelings, about it. Grow up.

I am stunned that the Mulroney family would allow Justin Trudeau to speak at the funeral. Completely stunned and disgusted.

5. d. Enough with the Québec/Francophone-bashing, threatening your neighbours with turning off the taps, and stoking national disunity. Canada helped get the oil and gas sector off the ground, has subsidized it annually for decades upon decades, spent $4.5B on TMX...

Can't help wonder how many Ontarians would still be alive today had @FordNation spent these billions on long-term care and schools when he received them, rather than hoarding them until now for vote buying. A portion of these election gimmicks are funded with #BloodMoney .

Well, judging by the sheer number of tweeps being nasty with each other online, because the media baited them into losing their minds over #Tofino , it would seem that our first national #TruthandReconciliationDay generated very little truth and not much reconciliation. #CdnPoli

@PnPCBC 1. Why are you guys wasting all of our time's wondering "is that really a fair characterization"? It's not. You know it. You know what she is saying is not true. And you should just say so. You should tell Canadians that she is actively trying to misinform them.

So wait... What? @JustinTrudeau invoked the #EmergenciesAct **after** both the Mayor and Premier invoked their States of Emergency, and lifted his before both of them did, yet the only emergency declaration with which there's an issue is Trudeau's? That seems rather selective

Effective at 4pm, the State of Emergency for Ottawa is lifted. The State of Emergency was declared on February 6 in response to the serious danger and threat to the safety and security of residents posed by the occupation.

3. Your choice is: Meet the health and safety requirements of your current job, or quit this job and find one that does not have the health and safety requirements to which you do not want to submit. The constants are the same as they always were, we just have a new variable.
