I don't care if you hate/despise/revile Justin Trudeau, Chrystia Freeland, or the Queen of Denmark. You treat them with civility, even in your disagreement, and you do not under any circumstances threaten or intimidate them. 1/
If you are realizing more than $250K in capital gains in any single year, and you're not selling your primary residence (exempt) or your business ($1.25M at 0%) you are in no way middle class.
Look, I don't care how big the stones were, or if they hit their mark. I care that this is happening at all. The Prime Minister is being stalked by white supremacists.
We have decided that will will close our business on September 30th, because every child matters. We have consulted the local indigenous community, and they are very supportive. I encourage others to do the same, especially this year.
I talked to a teacher today. She's up against the Manitoba vaccine mandate. She has the option to rapid test 3 times a week. She says she doesn't need the vaccine, because everyone else will take it for her. This is a person teaching indigenous kids. I give up on society.
While taking a leak at the Ottawa Int. Airport, I found tampons and maxi pads in the men’s room.
This shit isn’t real. I still don’t believe it. I’m in the Matrix.
I'm sorry, but asking Justin Trudeau if he inflamed tensions by telling protesters that they should get vaccinated to protect their loved ones is fucking ridiculous.
FUCKING. RIDICULOUS.
When asked if today plays into the narrative that Poilievre is being “silenced,” Miller responds “Who’s being silenced? He doesn’t shut up. It would be great if he could shut his yap once in a while.”

I know some people will disagree, but a school food program that starts basically immediately is FUCKING HUGE. No child should go to school hungry, and no child should miss school because of hunger. This is great policy on a whole host of fronts.
Petro Poroshenko is a billionaire former president. He doesn't need to do anything. He could be anywhere in the world right now. He's in the streets, with a gun, protecting his country.
So that's not really what he said. He said that their anger is understandable, and that he doesn't blame them for it. This makes it sound flippant, when it was in fact exactly the opposite.
Also--I love that Blanchett calls out the media here on how they always seem to let Poilievre control the narrative. "Poilievre said..." and Blanchett is basically like, who gives a fuck what Poilievre said?
While I’m not suicidal, I have to wonder what the point is to any of this anymore. Endless cycles of lockdown, giving up on dreams, and spending all my time going between work and home nearly broke me last time. I know I’m not alone. I can’t imagine how people will do this again.
We have reached a weird spot in society. Lunatics throw stones at the Prime Minister, and we make sure everyone knows they were small stones, for some reason. Stalkers follow the Prime Minister around the country, finding him at unpublished events, but very few question it. 1

I, and many I know, do not see any refund. I guess you're a lucky one. Just like all of JTs programs, it's NOT all Canadians.
I would like to thank
@POTUS
. He said he'd work to get the Michael's home. He has. Thank you sir.
And thank you of course, to
@JustinTrudeau
, who has put relentless pressure on both the United States and China to make this happen.
I’m actually for selling Stornoway. That isn’t anti Poilievre. We should always examine “does this make sense
?” Sell Stornoway and use the money to help fund a new PM residence.
The Ford government has yet to accept the offer of Red Cross mobile vaccination teams (that they had originally asked for), or even the ICU doctors and nurses that Justin Trudeau found within federal departments to send to Ontario.
What the hell?
Say what you want about Justin Trudeau otherwise, but accusing him of being scared to interact with Canadians is absolutely stupid. He meets with unvetted crowds in the middle of the province most hostile to him. His security must sweat bullets at times.
Bravo Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland. Jackboot on the neck is a direct reference to the horrors of Nazism. How Morantz can use that so callously is beyond my comprehension.
Anaida Poilievre pretending that both she and her husband don’t spend significant amounts of time denigrating, insulting, and fomenting hate is just too much for me. Both implied Trudeau is a child predator. Pierre has created Trumpy names for his foils, never mind all the wacko.
Look, I'm not even "woke." I think we spend too much time on stuff that most people can't identify with. But Trudeau going on a drag show doesn't offend me, and it shouldn't offend you, because it's not offensive.

Watching the case count collapse in Ontario, despite unchanged border rules, must be really strange for people who get all of their news from PC party ads.
No one is talking about masking forever. They only want masking during waves of respiratory virus of any kind, and between waves, to prevent future waves of respiratory virus of any kind.
Nothing screams "I care about Canadians" like skipping the non confidence debate you brought to the House to attend a $1725 a plate fundraiser on Bay Street.
Being religious is your own business. Marching in Pride is your own business. But don't tell me it's a coincidence that Poilievre went to a Pentecostal assembly on the same day as the parade. I won't be gas lit.
Even if I were tired of Justin Trudeau, I couldn't be THAT tired.
I’ve got to say this creeps me out. No boss should greet their subordinate colleagues like this. He doesn’t do it to the men. Makes John Turner look like a feminist! Note her portfolio: “PM Justin Trudeau congratulates Marci Ien, minister for Women, Gender Equality and Youth.”
Canada is receiving no less than 4 million doses of vaccine in the next 31 days. I don't want to hear about supply problems anymore. There aren't any.

Canada has become a major destination for the film industry — and the Toronto International Film Festival is a big reason why.
Congratulations to everyone at

on kicking off another year. Thanks for bringing the world to Canada.

I want a true public broadcaster that doesn't have to sell ads, clicks, or worry about ratings. I want to be able to turn on CBC news and get the news, not the sensational fear headlines.
Who's with me?
Premiers can cry all they want. There is no amount of vaccine that will prevent a third wave that we're already in. It's time for them to put on their big boy pants, and make the hard choices.
I have heard people in my life, close to me, say that Justin Trudeau hates Canada. I don't understand that perspective. Watching this, I can't help but wonder what people would feel if they actually cut through the rhetoric.
The Canada he describes? It's the one I believe in.
Conservative MP Michael Barrett suggests he heard a "pager beeping" from the NDP side of the aisle, which NDP MP Heather McPherson fairly reasonably recognized as a reference to the recent pager explosions in Lebanon, calling for it to be retracted, which Barret did.

Canada now has committed supply between Pfizer, Moderna, and AstraZeneca, to give 21.4M people both doses of vaccine by the end of June.
That is enough to get to 96-97% of adults, given expected uptake. This is a big deal.
You would never know it, since you can’t find any Canadian stories about it, but through COVAX, Canada has delivered over 2.7M doses across Africa and the Caribbean, and likely other places. I actually found false info on a story from 2 weeks ago saying we’d so far only sent 80K.
Help me out here. In the first week, the Conservative campaign fumbled vaccine mandates, abortion rights, and depending on who you talk to, healthcare. Despite all that, it's the Liberals that are said to be having a bad start to the campaign.
Am I on a different planet?
