We’re a secular nation with inclusion for religion - we don’t do things like say prayers in public schools anymore and our leaders don’t end their speeches saying β€œGod bless Canada”.

Poilievre wants us to go backwards and will bend to making political policy according to fundamentalist ideology πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

My parents once lived on 21B Avenue.

Mom had to say their address over the phone so she said β€œ21 B-for-Bob Avenue” to help get it right.

Package came with the street address:
21 Beaver Bob Avenue

Never felt more Canadian πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

Musk Starlink deal with Ontario government back on hours after threat to rip it up | Globalnews.ca Doug Ford says the Ontario government is 'ripping up' its $100-million contract with Elon Musk’sΒ Starlink to provide high-speed internet to northern and rural communities.

Has Doug Ford cancelled the Ontario Starlink deal yet? I know he cancelled it and then uncancelled it...

It always made me smile seeing Trudeau and Obama together in the year they overlapped.

I worry that any non-conservative leader will have to continually withstand a barrage of lies and hate.
Trudeau handled all of it with a lot of grace. I’m not sure many will be as strong and dedicated

I’m encouraging you to be skeptical and not repost something without confirming from at least another reputable source. It avoids spreading misinformation.

I know. I’m trying to train others to be curious about these things than just take my word for it.

This photo captures a celebratory moment during what appears to be a pride parade. Two individuals are prominently featured, both smiling and waving. They are holding a sign that reads "THANK YOU! CANADA! JUST MARRIED!" with small flags of Canada and the United States attached to it. One of them is also holding a rainbow flag, symbolizing pride and support for the LGBTQ+ community. The background shows a cityscape with tall buildings and a crowd of people, indicating a public event.

On this day in 2005, the Civil Marriage Act was introduced to Parliament by the Liberal government.
When the Act received Royal Assent months later, it made Canada the fourth country in the world to legalize same-sex marriage.

I don’t see this covered anywhere else. Why is this source trustworthy?

And someone tell the Liberal comms team that Crawford Kilian just came up with the perfect tagline for ads about Poilievre refusing to get security clearance ☺️

The photo depicts a vintage scene featuring a group of people gathered around a tabletop hockey game, specifically branded with "Stanley Cup" and NHL logos. The game appears to be set up on a table with a glass or plastic cover over it, and it includes miniature hockey players and goals. 

In the background, there is a pegboard wall, possibly part of a recreational or community center. The individuals in the photo are dressed in hockey-themed attire; two of them are wearing referee-like striped shirts, while another person is wearing a Pittsburgh Penguins jersey.

I'm sharing an image a day to celebrate the vibrant and unique culture and history of Canada.
Today, it is the Table Hockey Championship in February 1974 at the Guadagni Lounge at Concordia University.

They did nothing when Citizens United happened to their own country and allowed their politics to be bought by corporations. I expect much shrugging and maybe some hand wringing but would be surprised at rising out of recliners.
