So Trudeau takes care of hundreds of protesters who harassed a city for 3 weeks after police and province did NOTHING, gets lambasted for it by the right, but allows the Montreal city police to quell a smaller riot by 7 pm and still gets lambasted for it. Did I get that right?

Canada is vast, and babies in rural communities often need 🚑, 🚁, or 🛩️ to reach NICUs. We’re making these transports safer and faster by funding life-saving equipment. Join us in helping tiny champions: sandraschmirler.org/?form=FUNMJVDL… #ChampionsStartSmall

On Nov. 8, as Irene Alec walked along downtown Burns Lake, she stooped to pick up a green cloth shopping bag that was lying in the road and placed it on the sidewalk. Moments later, she found herself handcuffed in the back of an RCMP vehicle. thetyee.ca/News/2024/11/2…

Federal departments could run out of funds by Christmas as the Conservatives delay approval of C$21.6 billion in critical spending. Worker pay, First Nations funding, and defence budgets are at risk while Conservatives stall the House. Is this the season of giving or gridlock?

Donald Trump picked an unqualified, billionaire wrestling mogul to lead the Department of Education. This is an insult to our teachers and to every kid in America who relies on a good public school education.

BREAKING: President-elect Donald Trump is nominating the billionaire professional wrestling mogul Linda McMahon to be secretary of the Education Department, tasked with overseeing an agency Trump has promised to dismantle. apnews.com/article/trump-…

Why Canada Post? Because if you're in very rural areas good luck getting a private carrier to work - not profitable. That's why it's public and why it shouldn't be asked to turn a profit . We need it #SupportPostalWorkers

This is up to half a million views in the past day. Poilievre has been dominating the long form digital space, but the Liberals finally have a video that's getting noticed. Why does it work? It's not catchphrases or talking points, the PM is talking to voters like real people.

We’re making a big change to immigration in Canada. Here’s why: youtu.be/vOB7-dbYuCc

Feeling empty after a loss is a natural response, reflecting deep emotional bonds. Unexpected surges of emotion may overwhelm us, but instead of suppressing these feelings, it's vital to understand them. I find great joy in movement. If you're able, move your body & move for joy.

Very few moments more satisfying for my farming father, Roger, than harvest. His first was 73 years ago. True Thanksgiving.

When the Conservatives play political games, Canadians pay the price. Over the past few weeks, their obstructions have wasted $5.6 million in taxpayer money—funds that could have supported real solutions for Canadians. It’s time to stop the waste and get back to work!
