Itโs very clear that the Poilievre strategy is to keep his base, absorb the PPC voters and pray for a split between the Liberals and NDP as a path to power. Thatโs why heโs not trying to draw moderates. Heโs got nothing to lose now and heโs all in on division.

We know Canadian politics are often messy and complicated, but itโs worth remembering there are still good politicians who serve with integrity, compassion, and a genuine commitment to their communities. Their work keeps our democracy strong and our future hopeful. ๐จ๐ฆ

Pinocchio Pierre Poilievre finds himself aligned with residential schools deniers. As usual, his statements are laced with inaccurate facts and obvious lies.
Fact-checking him isnโt optionalโitโs a civic duty. Thank you, Rachel!

Has there been a time when the legislative, executive, and judicial branches seemed so thoroughly compromised by incompetence, self-interest, and moral decay as they are now under the GOP?

I appreciate my employerโs decision to grant us a paid holiday for Truth and Reconciliation Day. Itโs recognized as a solemn occasion, and weโre encouraged to reflect, learn, and act toward reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples. Yesterday, we had a staff workshop on meaningful land recognition.

To move from reflection to action, our team took part in a learning activity on land recognitions to strengthen our commitment to change.

"There were a total of 1,284 hate crimes targeting a religion that year โ a sharp 67 per cent increase from 2022, and a phenomenon largely driven by more police-reported incidents against Jewish (900 hate crimes) and Muslim (211) communities."

Poilievre is going to cause a Canadian version of January 6.
His language is now even more toxic and aggressive.
Heโs whipping the base and his PPC adoptees.
CSIS/INSET need to be on this guy. Heโs trying to start a civil war.
