Thank you, Liberal Party of Canada, for announcing your new cabinet on a platform that I can't read posts from without an account on X, which I removed thanks to Elon Musk, the same person who made posts on X no longer public. Why are you still using X, especially for important public announcements?
The fact that the Conservatives increased their vote share and seats—while offering almost nothing of substance to the vast majority of Canadians thanks to deep pockets & microtargeted influence campaigns—should be alarming to all, and cannot go unchecked between now and the next election.
Just ask any non-millionaire Conservative voter to explain their vote without mentioning Trudeau, and requiring them to specify their new tax rate if they mention tax cuts.
Actually, elevating Karina Gould should be the second thing PM Carney does.
The first should be taking affirmative, high profile public steps to protect our information spaces from corporate America, like requiring all government social media accounts to post from the government's brand new Mastodon instance (allowing mirrors to other platforms).
Otherwise, if Zuck, Musk & others can do as they please with our communications, Carney won't be PM for very long.
One of the first things I hope PM Carney does is find a way to elevate Karina Gould.

A #CPC candidate finally talks to the CBC and this guy is an absolute ass. 😂 Just going OFF on Doug Ford 😆 for being an “opportunist”. This guy apparently knows JD Vance.
Keep fascist American propaganda peddlers out of Canadian media. Conservatives/right wing are very eager to defund and bury the CBC because it's willing to call out their bullshit. #cdnpoli
Cryptocurrencies are not a path for Canadians to avoid the impact of rising prices, a senior central bank official said on Monday, though the technology does show 'some promise.'
It would be awesome if the voters in Carleton fired Pierre PoiLIEvre!
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is at risk of losing Carleton riding as the party scrambles to send in volunteers to save the seat he has held since 2004... theglobeandmail.com/politics/a… #ABC #cdnpoli #polcan #elxn45
As we're voting across the country, remember that the previous Harper CPC gov, and specifically #Poilievre as the relevant Minister, installed a bunch of steps to discourage voting, and remove Elections Canada's impartiality.
That mess was quickly removed with Bill C76 after the #CPC was booted out.
Not only does CPC leader Pierre Poilievre have investments w/ Brookfield Asset Management, but so does CPC deputy leader Melissa Lantsman... #doasisaynotasido #cdnpoli #polcan #elxn45
Majority of Canadians agree that Danielle Smith has betrayed Canada by engaging with Americans who want to annex Canada... cultmtl.com/2025/04/majority-o…
Conservative candidate Lourence Singh for the New Westminster-Burnaby-Maillardville riding is no longer running in the federal election race, marking the third candidate exit in a single day.
NEW: CTV has cancelled an election fact-checking segment on their morning show in response to political pressure from the Conservative Party.
Sebastian Skamski, a senior campaign official for Mr #Poilievre denounced CTV News, saying their guest was lying directly to viewers & suggested that CTV News is working to help elect Liberals.
Despite Mr Skamski offering no evidence to support his claims, the network folded & cancelled the segment.
Elbows Up 🇨🇦 This morning, there are no fewer than four ANTI-Carney articles on the front page of the American-owned National Post. As expected, media is working hard to install a Trumpian hellscape in #Canada. Don't let them.
Apply to vote by mail, Eligible electors can apply to vote by special ballot. With a special ballot, you can vote by mail from anywhere in the world, 2025.
So, I guess Stephen Harper kept Pierre Poilievre from speaking freely when he had a security clearance for a decade as a Harper government™ cabinet minister?
Bottom line: Danielle Smith MADE THE COMMENTS and Danielle Smith has NEVER been a part of the TEAM CANADA approach. Danielle Smith went down to Mar-a-Lago and kissed the ring, along w/ the likes of Kevin O'Leary, etc. cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/al… #sellout #cdnpoli #elxn45
“What’s the probability of this kind of scenario? Ten per cent, 5 per cent, or 1 per cent? No one can say for sure. But it’s certainly not zero. And given the existential cost to Canada, we’d be stupid not to take it seriously. In game-theory terms, we need to pursue a strategy of “minimax regret” – to minimize, as best we can, the possibility of worst-case outcomes.”
Cascade Institute Executive Director Thomas Homer-Dixon urges Canada to bolster its defenses against the growing threat of an authoritarian and imperialist U.S. regime.
"Let me remind you what fascism is. It need not wear a brown shirt or a green shirt - it may even wear a dress shirt. Fascism begins the moment a ruling class, fearing the people may use their political democracy to gain economic democracy, begins to destroy political democracy in order to retain its power of exploitation and special privilege." #fascism #USA #Canada #cdnpoli
charlieangus.substack.com/p/my… This is the stuff of a totalitarian nightmare. It's not something you would imagine in a democratic nation. But this is the reality of life in Trump's America.
And this is why I went to Canada's Parliament to issue a travel warning to Canadian citizens: avoid all unnecessary travel to the USA. #cdnpoli
