Okay let's not talk about how many progressives are feeling betrayed by Carney's environmental destruction and the rebuilding of the NDP.....

Mark Carney vs Mark Carney. Carney made an exemplary speech at the WEF. Sadly, his words and his actual policies tell two very different stories. When words & actions don't match, actions matter most. Orator Carney really needs to sit PM Carney down & give him a stern talking to. A 🇨🇦 poli 🧵 1/

October 22 marks a special day of remembrance for an Indigenous leader who made long-lasting impacts on communities across the country. Born on this day in 1844, Métis leader Louis Riel is recognized as Manitoba's honourary first premier.

NEW AD: Have you seen these anti-Talarico attack ads? Elon Musk paid for nearly all of them. The world's first trillionaire knows if he drags the most corrupt politician in Texas across the finish line, Ken Paxton will owe him everything. Elon Musk: Texas is not for sale.

Wow shoplifting in the USA is met with such a violent response. Why? For diapers and baby clothes. This is something store security should take care of and if not the store can write it off. Just bizarre reaction to minor theft. www.tmz.com/2026/10/21/k...

Finally some action on these awful commercials. The only ads I want to see for online gambling is for addiction services for the online gamblers.

"Imagine you're an alcoholic and there was a beer ad during every show you watched," he told CBC News. His gambling started three years ago as a fun Friday night activity with friends, but escalated." Ontario and Alberta oppose the federal bill! 😡 www.cbc.ca/news/investi...

Well as a Canadian I would like to state a fact. If the USA continues to support the Republican regime in next month's election, a majority of us will be done with them for good. Pull the support from the bully or lose all your friends. Your choice.

The US embassy has published a list detailing what it calls Canadian government officials' "plans to influence American politics"

In a country where basic healthcare is out of reach for many. Education system is struggling but yet there are people who will transition your kids for free. How did we let such a hateful moron become the richest person in the world.

Toby Buckle@polphilpod.bsky.social

i don't think we can come to a reasonable compromise with this

Really hope when they are done counting things look a little bit better. Because this shows that 1/2 of Albertans either don't understand how immigration works or are racists. Kind of ironic they complain about Ottawa not listening but the way to get more MPs is from increased immigration.

Alberta referendum, Wed 1:59 p.m. count: Smith’s side leads on 7 of 9, No to the Nine on Q6 (judges) and Q8 (opt-out). But 350k+ mail ballots are still uncounted on Q6–Q9, and mail is running 25–30% yes. Q7 and Q9 aren’t safe. Unofficial, still counting.

Besides his inability to control his temper WTF is with his hair....

😳 Trump loses it and SNAPS at a string of reporters, says Ilhan Omar might "go to jail," calls Somalia "a shit house," and boasts that thanks to a new program he announced today Americans "will make millions of dollars by turning others in" during absolutely deranged Oval Office event Supercut:

The wording of public services losing money is incorrect. It is funding that is the issue. Yes if they competed with courier services for packages they could become profitable. But that is not the point of a public service.

IvoxPierre@ivoxpierre.bsky.social

Read another way, this actually says: "Canadian government underfunded their own national postal service by almost $2B dollars in 2025" This is @mark-carney.bsky.social bullshit spewing language. It's a government service, not a business - fund it! www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Americans, please don’t worry about your child coming home from school a different sex. Worry about your child not coming home from school because they were shot to death.

Impossible to answer without Trump coming after him. Zelensky says the wrong thing and many of his people could die.

OMG what a hypocrite. All he has been doing since he became Con leader was to try the Trump method of divide and conquer. Loser will say anything, he should resign.

"We're in this together," Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says in Calgary in advance of Monday's vote in Alberta on a possible future separation referendum. "Let's unite around what we have in common rather than tearing ourselves apart by what divides," he adds. #cdnpoli

We are a small province. The only reason we have a homeless issue is due to the Saskparty govt incompetence. This province has enough money to house, feed, educate and provide healthcare. Gross mismanagement is the issue not resources. www.discoverweyburn.com/articles/ccp...

So people losing healthcare and children starving is a good thing. What kind of demented fuck is that guy.

The Lincoln Project@lincolnproject.us

Derrick Van Orden ripped Wisconsinites' healthcare away, and was proud to do it. He'd do it again, don't give him the chance.

This is true for every modern election.

We need to nationalize it. Enough of Trump's rich buddies trying to fuck with our country.

Kelly Miller@sqirlgirly.bsky.social

Apparently Stelco is not fulfilling existing domestic orders for rolled steel……. While laying off workers. Both Cascadia and Honda have been trying to buy product, but Cleveland Cliffs CEO is rejecting the orders. This is politics, not business. www.ctvnews.ca/video/2026/1...

Yeah, we banded together to get rid of Harper just to have Carney's Liberals betray us.

Avi Lewis@avilewis.ca

This is the exact same approach the Liberals fought under Stephen Harper. Now, they're bringing back that very same agenda and Harper is cheering from the sidelines.

So the American VP does not have an understanding of basic political ideology. What a moron!

Q: How do you define socialism personally? JD VANCE: I think in reality what it actually means in the American context is you want to replace American workers with foreigners workers, and you want boys to play in girls' sports
