I wonder which party the MP could have been from that said that.

And more! 👏👏👏

About time we got some good news.

Slacktivism. Even if Hoekstra was expelled, we would get assigned someone else just as terrible. There are no good people in the Trump administration.

Asshole ex-husband of neighbour comes to pick up daughter. Parks in TWO spots in our private lot, one of them mine. I tell him to move and he threatens me with violence. He then gets mad when I swear because his daughter is there. So, swearing is bad, but violence and arrogance are fine?

There is hope for Sask yet.

Make decency great again.

To the people who are still talking about how Canada is "not taking Alberta seriously" -- what on earth are you talking about? The PM is an Albertan. The leader of the opposition is an Albertan. Our national politics revolve around Alberta's interests and concerns. What else do you want?

Don Braid says it best here:

I'll never understand people who instead of strategically voting to keep shitheads out of power will smugly vote for their fringe party. So instead of a govt they mildly disagree with they get shitheads who will destroy everything they want.

The #1 lesson from the Alberta referendum is that conservatives are hell bent on gutting the Canadian constitution. We must never allow them the 50%/7 with a federal conservative govt or we are truly fucked.

Holy shit batman.

Let's offer the USA our separatists for their immigrants. Even swap. I'd rather see a farmer from Punjab in rural Alberta than some close minded redneck .

Rural folks who rarely see immigrants think immigrants are a problem.

I got a ticket for the Canada rally tonight in Edmonton. I'm wondering how many hours I'd have to wait in line ...

Voted in the sham referendum. It took less than 10 minutes. Didn't read a single question. Danielle Smith and the UCP are a bunch of cunts.

Today's thought. Pollsters sample a small portion of the population to (mostly) reliably predict the voting habits of the larger population. Why do we get cries of "no mandate!" from low voter turnout then? Statistically, it should still be representative of the entire population.

lol at Canadian political parties trying to do Mamdani things except they're missing the key ingredient to doing Mamdani things which is Mamdani.

The BC NDP have decided to make all the mistakes of the AB NDP. They are fucked.

Barely above Alberta. The seppies are a poison in this country.

According to the nutbar leftists here, Carney is completely responsible for the actions of the Israeli govt.

It finally clicked that Carney's "Nostalgia is not a strategy" is the subtlest fuck you to "Make America Great Again" which is nostalgia as a strategy.

Unpopular opinion: being a former central banker is an ace in the hole for a PM.

When you start to really understand how global sovereign debt works you realize that most of what politicians say about debt is lies or ignorance.

Every accusation of paid protestors is an admission.

On the "Pacific Link" pipeline, the ball is now squarely in the oil and gas industry's court. If the project fails, they won't be able to blame Ottawa for their own refusal to fill it. I suspect that was the prime minister's plan all along. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/10/02/o...

Airlines are weird. Westjet is trying to upsell frills on a flight that is under 90min. I don't even need a cup of water from the flight attendant for that duration.

Carney knows the pipeline politics are good for national unity and getting Alberta to just STFU already. Trudeau and especially Steven Guilbeaut pissed off a lot of folks out here. Carney is a pragmatist though. If the economics are not there, it doesn't get built. Simple as that.

I LOVE CBC's new sports programming. Yeah, men's hockey has been the thing in Canada for decades, but maybe it's time we gave some other sports and women's hockey it's due. Canada isn't just the fucking NHL.

Alberta's next provincial election is October 2027. The timelines are important.

I like when people on social media put a Christian cross emoji in their bio. It gives you a heads up they are likely a narcissistic shitty amoral person with bigoted and racist views.

Note to media organizations. I will never ever purchase a fucking subscription to read your articles. I want to start a tech company that focuses solely on micro-payments for things like this. Media would earn more by charging 25c an article than begging people to subscribe.

Unpopular opinion: some of our environment will have to be sacrificed for progress.

They might not win any more seats, but they might win again. At the very least it resets the clock for another 4 years.

TIL about Utilitarian vs Egalitarian bargaining

In a world of Susan Sarandons, be a Luigi Mangione.

All these people are in cults, says person wearing a cross necklace.

I never want to hear another American ask Canadians and other non-Americans why we care so much about their politics.

BC may go conservative, but we may finally kick the seppies to the curb in Alberta next year. #abpoli

The BC NDP are so fucked.

BC Election is going to be closer than the NDP would like.

By painting economic growth and fiscal discipline as "right-wing," the left has backed itself into a corner. Ceding financial reality to the centrists and conservatives isn't principled, it's political surrender.

The pundits here seem to forget how our democracy works. The Liberals did not need to have the details of every policy they were ever going to introduce as legislation during the election campaign. That's insane and impossible. A majority created from floor crossings and by elections is also fine.

An early election call (nonsensical in Westminster Parliamentary system but anyways) is labelled a "power grab". It only gives more power to the government if they win more seats. But then it should be called a "stronger mandate"

On Bluesky, if you're not a leftist, they call you a Nazi.

Leftists: WHY WON'T CARNEY DO SOMETHING ABOUT PALESTINE! Carney: Here's $100 million for Gaza, support two state solution, would arrest Netanyahu for ICC, arms embargo, trade restriction Leftists: CaRnEy iS CoMpLiciT iN GenOciDe! This is how stupid things are.

The word "feminist" has been used as a pejorative by too many. Sexist is unambiguous.

I read through C-39 quickly and used AI to get summaries and answer questions on certain points. Most of the hyperbole here about C-39 is asburdly inaccurate. With any legislation there are legitimate concerns on some points, but people need to tough grass.

All the opposition parties keep crying that Carney doesn't have a mandate to do all the things he's doing. I don't think they would like the results if an election were called to solidify a mandate. Both PP and Avi would have a hard time actually getting elected.

Mark Carney, as a top economist, understands that TRUST is everything. The world is figuring out who it can trust and that is not the USA. Saying Carney has some hidden agenda is nonsense, as that undermines trust.
