@maddow.msnbc.com please do a #Prequel tour stop in Canada! We don’t want to risk a trip across the border atm.

Right, like everyone has said, this is not exceptional. All premiers are doing something similar. He is just loud and in the midst of a self-imposed election. Vote him out!

29 days until election day Feb 27.

The timing of this election is suspect; is he trying to capitalize on a combo of our inability to pay attention to EVERYTHING and to have to get to the polls on a cold winters day in Feb? Does he want low voter turnout? #yourvotematters #ontariovotes #onpoli

It should never have been sold; taxpayers built it, cons sold it off to fudge their budgetary numbers!

3/ I really hope voters pay attention this election. In 2021 we were distracted with the pandemic and just trying to get by. Now we have a chance to elect an NDP government that will re-invest heavily in healthcare and education, reverse the privatization efforts of the PCs, and govern responsibly.

If anyone knows the painting I’d love to hear about it. It is from goodwill, appears to be acrylic on canvas, no signature (that I can see anyway).

Snap election Feb 27, Trudeau and Ford, faded protesters in background. Frustrated with government…

Discussion of provincial responsibilities ie. health care, education, rent control, transportation

Info graph of statistics about the Ford government

Think your ER & specialist wait times, out-of-control rent, underfunded schools, & tuition+ interest costs are Trudeau’s fault?

They’re not.

In Ontario these are Doug Ford’s Conservatives.

This SNAP election is over a year early costing $175 Million #ontariovotes2025 #ontariovotes

So many children don’t get enough outdoor play during the school day because their educators hate being outside in winter, or any of the weathers. Showing these future stars winter can be fun!

Pierre Poilievre’s rage-baiting and empty slogans aren’t what Canada needs Canada risks electing dubious Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre based on little more than catchy slogans and voter fatigue.

We are being conned on a mass scale.

“A digital marketing firm abroad ran two of the largest anti-vax, pro-trucker groups, feeding disinformation into the movement while posing as grassroots supporters. Foreign propaganda is threatening our democracy.”

Why would the UCP move to place early childhood education under the Ministry of Jobs, Economy, and Trade? How will this prioritize education, learning, and care for our youngest citizens?
#CanadaSky #ABPoli #ECEC

Alberta’s recent decision to shift early childhood education oversight from Children and Family Services to JET raises concerns about prioritizing economic metrics over children’s early education and learning. #ChildCare #ABPoli #CanSky

Did you know that in February 2024, the AB UCP restructured its approach to early childhood education by transferring responsibility from the Ministry of Children and Family Services to the Ministry of Jobs, Economy, and Trade (JET).
