With Trump threatening our sovereignty and economy, I look forward to working together on the infrastructure and investments we need to strengthen our economy and protect family supporting jobs.
It’s a privilege to run alongside people that you really respect. Thank you to Chrystia, Frank, and Karina for running such positive campaigns over these past 2 months.
Together, we showed Canadians that the future of our Party is ambitious – and that we are ready to win.
Today, on "Border Security Theatre" we learn that "after weeks of near-daily flights [at a cost of $5.3 million], the Royal Canadian Mounted Police's much-hyped Black Hawk helicopters have been used to stop one illegal border crossing FROM the UnitedStates INTO Canada." www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

"On Wednesday, February 12, RCMP officers came to The Ubyssey’s office seeking contact information for sources in a previous story, who they anticipated might stage a demonstration. The Ubyssey did not provide contact information; journalism ethics require journalists to refrain from assisting police unless our cooperation is strictly necessary in extreme situations."
According to @ubyssey.ca, RCMP officers showed up at the office of UBC's student newspaper and requested the contact information of their sources to identify protesters
(The newspaper refused, which is good because it is wildly inappropriate for police to do this)

Baldwin: "This bill sends a message that certain kids are not welcome in little league. That some kids are not welcome in their school at all. What a heartbreaking message to a child. No American should be demonized and picked on so that politicians can win elections."

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.
And how much it has united us. More than anything, we are feeling united.

Wow I really jumped ok this bandwagon and fell off. But being away was worth it.
January 2025 was all about the gym, work, community theatre, and meeting the man of my dreams.
And if he makes me regret saying that, I’ll burn this account. 😂
A while back I asked folks why they’re joining Bluesky and the most common response I saw was, “I just want a good place to get my news” and, yall, no. Bad.
