The separatists in Alberta lost. Badly. Why we don't have to go around pretending otherwise -- and why those who keep trying to platform their voices and reason with their unreasonable grievances are doing more harm than good. #cdnpoli #abpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/10/26/o...

It would be nice if news headlines/reports stopped saying “BC Conservatives win first majority in a century” when the BC Liberals and Socreds won plenty of majorities and were, you know, conservative.

💯

Ugh. Not sure whether to go pick up whiskey or Tums.

Dear #BCpoli; Yes, Eby f-d up by calling this snap election. Huge unforced error, & he deserves political consequences for that. But take it from an Albertan: you don’t want the west coast version of UCP running your province. You don’t want an echo of our mess. Vote wisely. XOX 🫶

Meanwhile, Vancouver has had a driverless transit system since 1985.

Mark Carney: "Very senior U.S. officials have directly made suggestions, intervened, so to speak, in Canadian sovereignty, Canadian democratic processes, encouraged certain outcomes, encouraged certain peoples through that process."

Shoutout to Candian Blood Services for making it real easy to offload a half litre or so of blood. So many places are all "put pressure on the wound" or "somebody call an ambulance!" These folks are friendly, efficient, and they even provide the motorized blood cradle for you at no expense.

The US government is now asking Elon Musk to restore the access they say was never removed, Elon says was shut down by the US government, and both briefly tried to pretend was down due to a technical glitch, in between darkly hinting Ukrainians deserve to die for being stubborn or ungrateful.

LATE NIGHT CANADA: Canada's Staying Together and Trump Gets Behind

Just a fun reminder that it is official White House policy to support far-right, anti-EU parties across Europe. That includes spending money to fund astroturf campaigns to take down incumbents. www.reuters.com/business/med...

🤣🤣OMG!

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?

Further evidence, if it was needed, to support Canada moving away from reliance on US military procurement. 

Thomas Lukaszuk: "To most of us proud Canadians, this is not an economic equation. We are Canadians. This is who we are. This is part of our identity. And that is something that is not for sale, no matter what the cost would be."

Ten years ago today. In just the last few days: Trump made a deal for the U.S. to buy Russian diesel, an economic lifeline for Putin; he and Elon Musk blamed each other for an order that slowed down Starlink satellite connectivity over Ukraine...

Max lays it all out there. Excellent! 

Yeah, I really don’t get this guy‘s logic. 

🤣Perfect analogy!

This new doc looks very relatable for married couples

It is a sobering statistic that one in seven Americans will eventually serve as Donald Trump’s White House Press Secretary.

A beautiful thing

Canada needs to throw our hat in this ring 

I really hope she pushed back on that final statement 

That’s my assumption now as well, that Trump will be more brazen in his support of Russia against Ukraine. Despicable. 

Three bloody-handed war criminals: 🇷🇺Putin, 🇺🇸Trump, and 🇺🇸Musk. 😠 🇺🇦SlavaUkraini

C'mon, Keith. *How* did Norway turn its oil reserves into "extraordinary national wealth"? *Public ownership of oil companies *78 per cent profit tax on oil companies *25 per cent sales tax economy-wide so the oil revenues could be saved These are not serious people. #abpoli

Every day is a good day to be thankful for Canada's federal political financing limits.

🤣Needed a chuckle this morning

This is literature! “He campaigned all year for a prize whose window had shut while he was still hanging up his coat. We didn't have to reject him. The calendar did. We just watched. Norwegians are very good at watching. We have long winters.”

Yeah, I watched this sad monologue. I can only imagine that Lorne Michaels keeps bringing Gillis back to SNL because he thinks even negative publicity is good for the show. 

Former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine: "The Ukrainians for the past year have taken out probably 51% of the Russian refining capacity. So a major blow to the Russians. You can see why the Russians might want to have an energy ceasefire."

The Russians are very good at this. And so many people are also very gullible.

Rachel Notley to Albertans who plan to vote for separation as a "message to Ottawa": "The message isn’t being sent to Ottawa. It’s being sent to investors around the world — and it says you cannot count on the stability of Alberta."

What about when we want to get to "bite me"? #cdnpoli

this is honestly one of the worst and most irresponsible things he has ever posted, and that's really saying something

JFC that country is broken!

Thanks for this, Max

Exactly this 💯

😬

Are there still straight men out there who don't comprehend how many more women we'd pull by pulling off gay standards of dress, grooming and general taste? I mean, we'd still need to overcome being relentless assholes, but that's just a given. We've worked around that one for centuries.

🤣

The US auto sector is an anchor, and Canada needs to free itself as much as possible from its clutches in order to avoid going down with it.

“Our democracy works best when we have an opposition that looks like a government in waiting. The Conservatives look like dummies, and they should smarten up, for the sake of the country and their own personal dignity.”

A month after this, the Conservatives did not lead question period with any questions about trade talks.

One of Canada's advantages is that we know a lot about the US. We follow their news and politics, get their TV channels, travel there. But Americans know nothing about us. They don't understand our politics, history or values. They constantly misjudge us, but we understand them completely. #cdnpoli
