Why are so many Canadians on a platform owned by a man intent on breaking up Canada? I will never understand this level of apathy and denial.

If you are quiet about climate change on social media because no one wants to hear about it, then maybe that's the reason why you should not be quiet about it.

I didn't mince my words. Alberta's anti-immigration referendum questions are racist. They are also a potential disaster for Alberta's economy. Last night, I rose in the Senate to denounce them - and to thank all the thousands of Albertans fighting against them. Please share. #notothenine #cdnpoli

On Oct. 5, 1970, the Front de libération du Québec (FLQ) kidnapped British trade commissioner James Cross. This began the October Crisis and led to the only peacetime use of the War Measures Act. This is the story of the October Crisis. 📸 CP 🧵 1/12

On this day in 1984, Marc Garneau became the first Canadian in space. He was aboard the Challenger from Oct. 5 to 13 as a payload specialist. He returned to space on Endeavour in 1996 and 2000. In all, he spent 29 days, two hours and one minute in space. 📸 NASA

My school has ~400 students, 85% of whom speak a language other than English at home. Six years ago, my school was allocated 3 ELL teachers. Students in Gr. 2-8 received 40-150 minutes of language support a day, depending on their needs. This year, my school was allocated half a teacher. #OntEd

🔴 I've seen conversations comparing Pierre Poilievre and Jamil Jivani as leaders of the Conservative Party of Canada... The fact is that NEITHER of them are appealing nor acceptable propositions. 🙅🏻‍♂️ The choice is a conundrum. It's like asking somebody whether they'd rather be shot or hanged.

The Hockey Sweater is one of the most famous books in Canadian history. The story of a boy who received the wrong hockey sweater from Eaton's has been featured on our currency, gone to space, and been turned into an iconic NFB short. This is the story. 🧵 1/12

Americans say President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada aren’t worth higher prices, as Canadians remain in lockstep behind Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney.

There's a reason why Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney has hit a remarkable 70% approval rating and his #tradewar adversary is at rock bottom. One is doing what is best for his country and the other is doing what is worst. Leadership matters in a war, especially when one country trusts its leader.

Over the ten years, Premier Smith claims Alberta faced a hostile federal government, oil and gas production doubled, and Ottawa poured tens of billions into energy infrastructure. The tolerance of her big lie is almost as remarkable as the lie itself. ow.ly/Fl7950ZRRaq
