Ex-twitterati, happy to be 🇨🇦. Arts, food, pet videos and non-stupid politics (does that exist?) are my go-to. And snark. With whisky.

Canadians not voting is as damaging to our democracy as is promoting & voting for the worst of your grade 10 high school math class - the ones who sat at the back shooting spitballs, mocking everyone and making a*holes of themselves.

So much for that supposed 'liberal media' hey?? Canadian media is now so concentrated under a rightwing umbrella it's become so that it's frankly pretty much an anti-Canadian voice that pushes and promotes the greasy anti-Canadian pro-MAGA rightwing agenda crap across our country, nowadays.

Save the CBC 🇨🇦✌️@savethecbc.bsky.social

So floor‑crossing is supposedly ‘illegitimate,’ yet orchestrating a newly-elected MP in the safest Conservative seat to quit immediately after the election—just to force an expensive by‑election because your own riding tossed you out after you lurched to the far right—is totally fine.” Sure, Jan. 🙄

The speed cameras & alcohol on/off shelves are a tactic Premier Ford is using to distract from the fact his government is handing out hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to insiders and friends through the “Skills Development” Fund. #onpoli

The last time Conservatives ran Canada, they sold off key industries and locked us into a 31-year deal with China. CBC covered it all — following the money and exposing the truth. That’s why they want it gone. Defend the facts. Defend the CBC. #SaveTheCBC #CdnPoli #SellOut #NoMAGAinCanada

Well one group liked the hate and anger that Poilievre was selling. The other group voted for caring for each other and ensuring Canada stays the great country it is under Carney. I’ll let you know which group picked which leader. #cdnpoli #NeverPoilevre #CanadaStrong

Women voters leaned Liberal while an increasing number of men leaned Conservative. It reflects social, cultural and economic realignments rooted in identity politics and diverging values. Marshia Akbar writes. #CdnElxn2025

Poilievre said he’d cut waste —then handed us a $1M bill to save his own seat. No to dental care, yes to self-preservation. This isn’t fiscal responsibility. It’s political opportunism. #SaveTheCBC #PoilievreExposed #CdnPoli

In 2019, @adamvaughanto.bsky.social said this about Doug Ford’s plans for #OntarioPlace: “What a waste. What a terrible deficit of imagination. The people of Ontario, the folks of our city, the Toronto Liberal caucus want to keep Ontario Place a public place.” Shame on you, Adam Vaughan.

From reputation to shambles and desperation in one step. Shameful. @adamvaughan.bsky.social

Wow. Incredibly disappointed to learn that @adamvaughanto.bsky.social has been hired by Therme to try to convince people that the giant glass environmentally disastrous private spa on public land at #OntarioPlace is a good idea. Shame on you, Adam Vaughan.

I’ve done my fair share of celebrity podcasts. It’s always interesting when they don’t air your episode because you gently pushed back on their misinformation. Like, I’m a doctor, I’m not just going to sit silently while you spread misinformation. But egos, I guess.

It’s pretty smart politics for a guy who isn’t a politician; don’t give the CPC time to think about if this is the losing leader they want to be leashed to, don’t stall at all. “You want the guy I already won against? Sure. No problem. I’ll help you make it happen ASAP”. 😂

As Pierre Poilievre tries to bribe working class votes, recall how Poilievre applauded Stephen Harper for riding on Burro Tours making 'deals' with human rights abusing governments in countries where labour leaders got arrested for trying to increase wages and improve hideous working conditions.

Random thoughts. If caring Canadians fail to vote on April 28 there is a real chance that we will wake up to a regime that mirrors Trump and the Kremlin. A result that will haunt us for generations. I also have great faith that Canadians will stand up for our country. #Vote 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

President Trump is disrupting global markets and threatening our economy — and Pierre Poilievre has no plan to stand up to him. He’s following Trump’s playbook. Mark Carney is standing up for Canada — and for YOU. Canadians vote this Monday. Every vote counts! 🗳 👉 liberal.ca/cstrong

Let me get this straight - Poilievre's Conservatives claim that Carney is "Just like Trudeau", and then they run their own campaign ads featuring Stephen Harper, who most Canadians are still trying to forget. #cdnpoli
