We've all learned. Now the people of BC will have to live with the consequences. It will be the voters who learn the most important lesson in the end, particularly minorities. I look forward to the day when straight voters actually think about the consequences for queer folks. #cdnpoli

Justin McElroy 🇨🇦@jmcelroy.bsky.social

The Conservatives projected enough normalcy to the public. NDP voter enthusiasm collapsed. And David Eby made a decision that will be derided for decades. Here's my post-election column. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

How can this be legal? How can this be constitutional? The government of Alberta is clearly targeting the queer community. These actions are immoral and we must not stand for this! #cdnpoli #canadastrong

First they used the notwithstanding clause to override fundamental human rights. Next they came for library books. Now they are banning Pride flags. This is not how democracies operate. www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/art...

The rainbow flag is political in the same way as the provincial and national flags are. And it is as non-ideological as those flags are. This is simply Smith's effort to keep queer people out of sight. The courts and Canadians need to see this for the act of hate it is. #abpoli #cdnpoli

Smith didn't get her mandate so she's pivoted back to blaming woke ideology for turning kids Queer, Bi or Trans after looking at a 🌈 coloured flag all day. "If there's a type of flag that has a political messaging or ideological statements or things of that nature, it simply wouldn't be permitted"

It signals to all foreign investors that their capital is at risk in Canada and deters investment in our economy. A disastrous action. You'll do more for NDP credibility by providing a more thoughtful plan or by explaining why you fully support the federal government's response. #cdnpoli

And what do you think would be the worst consequence of nationalizing a business? If you don't get this right, you aren't a serious party. #cdnpoli

NDP@ndp.ca

The Trump-aligned CEO of an American corporation is dismantling one of Canada’s most important industries and 500 Canadian workers could lose their jobs. If we’re serious about making Canada strong, it’s time to take back control of our economy and nationalize Stelco.

The fascists accuse others of what they have or will do themselves. And this just adds to the 'Canada is a threat' theme that they keep building up in the empty craniums of the Maggats. It's just another small step toward invasion. #cdnpoli

Denialism is hate speech. It seeks to erase the experiences of a minority. It implies that an entire group is either delusional or lying about their lives. We need a multi-pronged approach to eliminating hate; and making it illegal is only part of it. Education is also key. #cdnpoli #Mbpoli

Yes, and Canada is also worth dying for, as our women and men in our armed forces are prepared to do when called upon. The least the rest of us can do is to vote to support the best interests of the country whenever the opportunity arises, and not seek to tear it apart. #cdnpoli

Mark Carney@mark-carney.bsky.social

Canada is worth fighting for.   Watch the video: youtu.be/tUTe5oJmSRo

If the fascists win the mid-terms despite severe polling results, the world will know that fascist control of the US is complete and everything must be re-examined. The West must preserve truth and democracy or a new dark ages begins, powered by AI, the end of history. #cdnpoli #eu

To exclude people on the basis of where in their body the suffering stems is unacceptable. Leaving some in their agony because it hurts here instead of there makes absolutely no sense....unless you believe that mental suffering is not real. Which is preposterous. #cdnpoli #canadastrong

The medias' need to specify the subjects as "trans women" reminds me of media before Canada stopped brutally discriminating against gay men, when media used phrases like "homosexual pedophile". And in 2026, what garbage have we been hearing about gay men...?? Words have consequences. #cdnpoli

The government should summon the US ambassador to Ottawa (read: a formal and public dressing-down). That would make international news headlines. #cdnpoli #canadastrong

US Republican organizers are in Alberta to help separatists mobilize their vote. They’re not even hiding it. They are openly working for the national interest of the United States. Cast your vote for Canada. Reject these treasonous imposters. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

I think it's time for our federal government to hold a national referendum on separation, to find out what Canadians think that line in the sand should be, to answer: when does free speech and freedom of association become sedition. #cdnpoli #canadastrong

KevinWallaceHorswill (he/him)@wallacehorswill.bsky.social

Tolerating separatist acts, disinformation, and misinformation, is an invitation with red carpet to foreign interference. We need to draw a line in the sand. Sedition is not free speech. #cdnpoli #canadastrong

Think of this as a test, which the american fascists have already failed - we already know they're interfering in Alberta politics as the vanguard of US ideological and political insurrgency into Canada. They cannot be trusted and they are not our ally. #cdnpoli #canadastrong

If the greatest threat from AI is not based in malice but simply that we find ourselves in the way, then perhaps a conscious AI may have the potential to value and respect other conscious life forms, out of empathy for our shared awareness of our existential circumstances. #cdnpoli

Given the US tech oligarchy and Trump's desire to annex Canada, this could be construed as a warning shot across our bow or testing our defenses. It surely demonstrates one means of a hybrid-invasion. AI security needs to be put under the auspices of the department of national defense. #cdnpoli

When others 'make no sense', it often means you have not answered a fundamental question: 'What would need to be true so this makes sense?' (Not necessarily moral, but logical). The fascists in Washington are not stupid, so answer the question. #cdnpoli #nato #eu

While I whole-heartedly support Carney's plan, we all need to understand that our relentless pursuit of our independence and sovereignty increases the threat of US invasion. Trump may go away, but the fascists in Washington will not. #cdnpoli #G2 #eu #canadastrong

Yet more Trump rhetoric conflating Canada's actions with 'hostility' or ideas about its military power. Trump is grooming Americans for the invasion of Canada. #cdnpoli #canadastrong

Trump suggests that the European Union allowing Canada to become an associate member could be a “hostile act.”

Hundreds of planes bound for the US on 911 were diverted to EVERY MAJOR AIRPORT IN CANADA, not just Gander. Ordinary Canadians, out of empathy, opened their homes to THOUSANDS of US citizens who were stranded. 911 showed you who you could count on. Stop the insults, stop the trade war. #cdnpoli

The trade war is a means to an end. Washington rachets-up their anti-Canada rhetoric. That rhetoric often conflates our justifiable anger and retaliatory tariffs with our military weakness. Eventually, MAGA will come to believe we can easily, and should be, annexed. #cdnpoli

Agreed. We should have been boycotting the US because of his attacks on trans people, women, blacks in government and military leadership, and doc/undocumented US residents. It's easy to stand up for ourselves. Until american fascism has finished, I will not be visiting or buying US. #cdnpoli

Negotiating a trade agreement with the neo-fascists in Washington is "putting the sign in the window." Our collective willingness to suspend our disbelief and play along has ended. What's left is to simply say, "Honour CUSMA or don't", and continue to pivot to the world. #cdnpoli #canadastrong

Carney is saying that it's clear the US is not interested in a true trade deal. He repeated that the US is still trying to break and divide Canada, and that Canada is extremely well prepared to pivot trade to the rest of the world. Sounds like the epilogue to the Davos eulogy.
