"But really, it all comes back to Pierre Poilievre, who built a movement founded entirely on rage."

I love the irony of the fact that Poilievre's rage-baiting is finally falling apart as a strategy at the exact moment when the entire country is legitimately furious about something.

Vancouver strip club marquee cited as hate speech on X after making jab at Trump | CBC News Known for its cheeky marquee signs, The Penthouse's latest quip โ€” a jab at president-elect Donald Trump's talk of making Canada the 51st state โ€” has gotten the Vancouver strip club suspended on X.

When I reported death threats on X I was told it doesn't violate community "standards."
But a strip joint got tagged for "hate speech" for poking fun at American spellings.
Musk-olini is going totally monkey-wrench our election.
And Ottawa is asleep.

I had a great talk with @meidastouch.bsky.social about standing up to Trump and calling out grifters like Kevin O'Leary.
Our political leaders are letting us down in dealing with the Mar-a-Lago mob and the MAGA Maple crew.
It's time to get our game face on.

So the big social media blockbuster today is a clip of a right-wing nutjob woman in BC telling Trudeau to FO.

Canadian Politician Calls Out CNN and Media Coverage of โ€˜Buffoonโ€™ Trumpโ€™s Invasion Remarks: โ€˜Teasing About Taking Over Other Countries!?โ€™ A member of the Canadian House of Commons Charlie Angus slammed CNN for labelling Trump's invasion threats against Canada as "teasing."

Seriously,
Why isn't @cnn.com getting media training from Russian state media?
The headlines that support Trump in undermining the sovereignty of independent nations would be less of the kiss the ring/lick the boot editorial approach.

Regarding the latest Conservative scheme to force an election just as Trump comes to power:
I didn't survive 21 years in Parliament defending a working class and Indigenous constituency to get played for a sucker by Pierre Poilievre and his Vichy Conservatives.
