You might get arrested, you'd probably drink free all night and meet some cool new friends.

Dear πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ Canadian πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ government, the answer to the questions you have is:
NATIONALIZATION.

Stellantis? (Auto)
Oil?
Airlines?
Fair pay?
Housing?
Food distribution?

Nationalize it all.
Oh, and end first past the post.

We've got a new #GE electric coil range that randomly refuses to work; the burners heat up then cycle down. I've been trying to boil a pot of water for 75 minutes, it's only hot.
I understand it's a common problem, is there a fix?

The solution is to cut out the misappropriation of funds by certain provinces, and enforce the Canada Health Act.

Actually amend the Canada Health Act and do not allow public funds to go to private clinics. Period.

You know how billionaires end up with severe cognitive deficits as a result of becoming surrounded by yes men who constantly tell them their every idea is genius? What if we made a bot that just does that to everyone. I think that would be a good idea.

Take a picture of yourself at the No Kings rally.

Print it.

Put it in a frame.

Your grandchildren will speak about you for generations to come. You took a stand against fascism. You stood up for democracy. οΏΌ

People, using this kind of cotton or webbing material kills animals every year.

For non-Torontonians, the Eglinton LRT is a transit line under construction for 892 years. No completion date is set. Previous completion estimates included the years 914 CE, 1065 CE, 1487 CE, and Sept. 2025 CE. Online betting sites have placed odds of 254 to 1 against completion this millennium.
