Holy smokes. Big exhale for the whole country. What a goal!
Onto the semifinals for the men, and tomorrow it’s the gold medal game for the women - let’s go! 🇨🇦
We could raise $121 billion over the next 5 years by placing a tiny wealth tax on fortunes over $10M, and invest it in the public services we rely on every day

Turns out while some continue to defend the billionaire class - under the illusion their money will trickle down to the rest of us - the fact is they hoard and hoard and hoard. Billionaires in Canada now have more wealth than entire countries, including New Zealand and Chile!
Enough is enough. 2/3
While things are getting harder for many of us, with the rising cost of groceries, housing, and other essentials - that's not the case for everyone.
The richest 40 billionaires in Canada? Their wealth grew by a whopping 20% between 2024 and 2025. An additional $95 billion! 1/3
👋 here’s the same post on bluesky: bsky.app/profile/morr...
Ask them what they have or will do to stop the sale of weapons to ICE, just as we have and need to continue to put pressure to stop arms sales to other regimes contravening human rights - from Israel to the UAE to Saudi Arabia.

As masked agents increase their violence south of the border - including killing ICU nurse Alex Pretti yesterday - it's easy to feel powerless.
But here’s something we all can do.
ICE agents are patrolling in vehicles made in Canada.
If you're sick of the horrifying videos, contact your MP. 1/2
@policyalternatives.ca's recent data shows Canada’s 100 highest paid CEOs set another record for wealth inequality this year.
If multimillionaires and billionaires paid a fair share we could invest in better healthcare, transit, affordable housing and more.
Merry Christmas!
Wishing you and your family a happy and healthy holiday season!
Thanks for letting me know Ryan, I hadn’t heard about this proposed cut in their omnibus budget bill. For now looks like they can’t even get the bill to second reading as a result of a lack of cooperation w other parties. I’ll keep an eye on this provision!
Big news! @morricemike.bsky.social is now a Deputy Leader with the Green Party of Canada!
Grande nouvelle ! Mike Morrice est désormais chef adjoint du Parti vert du Canada !
MPP @aislinnclancy.bsky.social and I are hosting an end-of-year party and we'd love to have you join us!
We'll be at Catalyst on Thursday November 27th at 7:15, and I'm thrilled that we'll be joined by the leader of the Green Party of Canada Elizabeth May.
RSVP: app.gvote.ca/rsvp/eve_507...
We now know who the PM expects to make the sacrifices he spoke of: everyday folks in communities like ours.
Instead of a tax increase on the ultra-wealthy or scaling back some of the billions in subsidies to foreign big oil companies, this government plans to cut $56 billion in services we rely on.
The 2025 Federal Budget falls short of the action Canadians deserve. @elizabethemay.bsky.social, Leader of the Green Party of Canada, and @morricemike.bsky.social, former Green MP for Kitchener Centre, explain why Greens can’t support a budget that doesn’t measure up.
Thanks so much Mitchell. Folks who jump in to volunteer (or donate) now are setting the ground work for a different outcome next time. I really appreciate you helping get the word out! -Mike
An update I’m excited to share: whenever the next election is called, I will run to serve as the MP for Kitchener Centre again.
This won’t be easy - but the sooner we start, the stronger we’ll be.
It’s why I’m asking for your help now - as a monthly donor, volunteer and more ➡️ www.mikemorrice.ca
While the average minority government only lasts 18 months, winning elections takes years.
It's why we need your help to get started now.
Help make sure we have the resources to get our community's voice in Ottawa back.
Join us at mikemorrice.ca/evergreen.
So excited to be starting this part-time role with @capacitycanada.bsky.social in September, allowing me to coach and support leaders in our community doing such important work.
