1. No one can trust Ford and his lackies. 2. We must see the duty to consult provisions. 3/4 of Ontario can’t trust these idjiots ever. 3. I have no faith that Ford will ensure appropriate consultation. 4. We must keep pushing. This is not just a First Nations issue, it’s an all of ON issue.

State of the United States of America. No more artificially drawn line from many years ago. Look how beautiful this land mass would be. Free access with NO BORDER. ALL POSITIVES WITH NO NEGATIVES. IT WAS MEANT TO BE! America can no longer subsidize Canada with the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars a year that we have been spending in the past. It makes no sense unless Canada is a State!"

Poilievre is promoting “100 days of change” if he’s elected. Trump is nearly at 100 days and look at what he’s done. Pierre’s promise to quick march his far right changes is driving me even further away, if that’s even possible. Don’t give him the keys to power. #canpoli #cdnpoli

Transphobia is one of the most consistent ideological planks of the modern international fascist movement. I have no doubt that a Poilievre gov't would severely roll back Canadian freedoms with regard to gender. Please vote. Please be strategic. This election is our best chance to reject hatred.
