Unionized workers only and only as long as dues keep flowing to NDP grifters - which is pretty much all of them.

Am I alone in thinking the orange-one's proposal for America to ensure peace and stability in Palestine and Israel is likely to be as successful as the similar pledge to Vietnam? #nobootsontheground commitment? Ha!

Am I getting this right? The orange-one wants to evict Palestinians from their homeland so his indicted and pardoned in-laws can build beachfront condos to sell to the highest bidder? At least that's a distraction from his plans to annex Canada.

Nothing unusual about Horwath being missing in action. She’s made a career of it.

I feel like sharing a photo of the massive list of banks and board memberships this guy has held may have the opposite effect you want it to given the current election climate in North America.

Outrageously irresponsible as being run by @bellcanada implying incapacitating depression is a standard feature of (women) attending university. Help those in need. Don’t terrorize al the others.

Yessiree @CBC has lost it, or at least the GEM division. Ad promoting a new drama tells me the idyllic French island Saint-Pierre is in Newfoundland!

Were @CBCNews to care about Canada, it would confirm or refute that Pierre Poilievre is in India with Harper, Moe and Modi. Canadians deserve to know if the reports are false or true. #cdnpoli

Could RobertFife of The Globe&Mail be envious that he has never and will never be invited to a sleepover with anyone of the class and integrity of James Irving and Dominic Leblanc? Or have any friends-for-life? #cdnpoli

Liberal Party of Canada just invited me to sign a digital holiday card it’s sending the Trudeau family. I wished for Justin to spend a lot more time with his family in 2025. #fundraisingstuntsthatbackfire

So #Alberta Premier Smith wants to β€˜send in the sheriff’ to patrol the international border…might have been more effective if she’d chosen the provincial rat-patrol. Sorry…CDN satire others may not appreciate.

Pierre Poilievre continues to prove that he's unfit to be prime minister Pierre Poilievre continues to prove that he's unfit to be prime minister.

β€œIn case you’ve lost count, Pierre Poilievre has failed to secure the confidence of Parliament for a third time. Rather than proving Parliament has no confidence in Justin Trudeau, Poilievre continues to demonstrate that Parliament has no confidence in him.” | @taylornoakes.bsky.social

Decade-old limited study the best you can find?
Surprised to read many Americans also troubled by wait times - many of which are explicable through triage.

Does anyone [other than Netanyahu] think Israel invading Syria and destroying its defences is a good idea? UN says no. Israeli imperialism won’t at Lebanon and Syria.

Holiday fundraising stunt - the timing that is. Like police doing a big child porn bust when their budget is up for approval

Finland is building a giant heat pump to cut CO2 from warming homes The heat pump will be part of a plant that will warm around 30,000 homes in Finland’s capital city.

IMPORTANT: Finland is building the world’s largest heat pump to warm homes in Helsinki. It would decarbonize the city’s district heating system by end of 2026.

β€œHelsinki has set the ambitious goal to become carbon neutral by 2030, and transitioning our heating system is crucial to achieving this.”
