The Rich List - Macleans.ca
There's a new billionaire topping our list this year. Here are Canada's 40 wealthiest peopleβand how they made their money.
This should make us all grab torches and pitchforks and start a revolution. Crypto billionaire Changpeng Xhao, ex-con recently pardoned by Trump, is now Canada's richest person according to the annual @macleans.bsky.social ranking: macleans.ca/longforms/th.... #cdnecon #canlab /2

I think you need a remedial math class. A minority by its definition is less than 50%, so far from most. This is precisely the problem with FPTP, you can lose an election and still be handed a false majority government. It is beyond broken.

I think that title goes to Trudeau's promise that this would be the last election using our antiquated undemocratic first past the post system. His betrayal on Proportional Representation is a fraud that will be hard to beat.

Observations from Montreal
An ever-changing collection of commentary and observations by Montrealers or about Montreal politics and culture.
βA report by the CBC revealed that Pierre Poilievre hired the team behind Canada Proud to βboost his messages online.β The organization has since been caught running disinformation campaigns targeting Mark Carney. Canadians deserve to know every last detail about Poilievreβs ties to Canada Proud.β

BREAKING: I have just received inside information that a copy of the Socratic dialogue "Protagoras" was found in the shooter's backpack. It is looking like the shooter may not have had a political motive after all, but was radicalized against Sophistry by Socrates.

Me: Hulk Hogan was a racist scab and a liar. He hated unions, Black people, and the truth and that's why he loved Donald Trump. What time do you want me?

He's a Liberal. They lie egregiously when they campaign. That's their MO, and people fall for it. Every time. Trudeau, ChrΓ©tien, Martin... They campaign on the left and rule from the centre right. WHY DON'T PEOPLE SEE THIS?! (Not op, I know she gets it)

As an atheists, I've always had a hard time with folks saying "Bless You" after I sneezed. Gesundheit always felt clunky to me. I've found the perfect replacement. Whenever anyone sneezes, I'm going to say, "Expel those demons!" Don't give me a hard time for not being nondemonational. #atheism
