3 years ago today I was running in Stanley Park when I suddenly lost consciousness. I woke up 4 days later post-op from a 4-vessel bypass. Sincerest thanks to the bystanders who performed CPR, the paramedics and the staff at St Paul’s Hospital for my second chance at life

Prior to the 2015 election the Harper-era increase of the TFSA limit to $10,000 mostly benefited the top 25% of wage earners and cost $3.5 billion/year. @pierrepoilivere wants to bring back expensive take cuts that benefit the wealthy

Pierre Poilievre is engaging in blatant misinformation. Mark Carney will be debating in French. He is not participating in an event held by TVA because of the outrageous requirement of a $70,000 fee to participate. Facts matter

In 2022 Pierre poilievre was buying donuts for antivax protesters who were behind the movement that was, among other things, protesting hospitals and endangering health care workers, and is using that same violence that he helped facilitate as a campaign tool. He is clearly unfit for public office

The Canada Dental Benefit, that has already benefitted thousands of Canadians, is being expanded.

To Winnipeg West CPC MP Marty Morantz: Some clarifications: -much of the ‘reckless deficit spending’ was due to making people didn’t starve and businesses didn’t fail during the pandemic -taxes were only increased on the top 1%, and the carbon tax added 0.16% to the rate of inflation Facts matter

What Pierre Poilievre leaves out here is that the previous Conservative government cut military spending to 0.99% of GDP, and the liberal government was investing heavily in the military, and was on track to have it up to 2% by 2025 until the pandemic hit

Many Canadians are happy with the latest polls, but the Conservatives have a well-funded and organized apparatus to identify Conservative voters and make sure that they vote. There is only one poll that matters, and that is the election. Make sure you vote!

Marty Morantz, MP for Winnipeg West: Pierre Polievre has appeared with Candice Malcolm , who just posted a poisonously hateful post about one of Mark Carney’s children. Will you publicly call for Pierre Polievre to denounce this person? Your constituents deserve an answer.

85621

Dr Doug Eyolfson @drdougeyolfson.bsky.social · 18/03/2025

This is Pierre Poilievre with Candice Malcolm who posted a disgraceful and hateful post about one of Mark Carney’s children. Mr Poilievre has also been interviewed by this individual. If he does not denounce the actions of this person he proves himself unfit for public office.

Marty Morantz: When Justin Trudeau started his term as Prime Minister, he graciously thanked Stephen Harper for his service to Canada yet you and your party have done nothing but express scorn and derision. This is shameful Canada is better than this

5 years ago COVID was declared to be a global pandemic. Never forget that while health care workers like myself were caring for COVID victims in ICU, and the Liberal Government was procuring vaccines, Pierre Poilievre and CPC were actively supporting antivax terrorism

Dr Doug Eyolfson @drdougeyolfson.bsky.social · 09/03/2025

In 2013 I met Justin Trudeau while he was running for Liberal Party leader. I got to know him, and decided that I would run for MP. I left the only job I had wanted since I was 10, and have never regretted that decision. Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau for your service to Canada

How can we believe @PierrePoilievre when he claims to stand up against Donald Trump when he bought coffee and Timbits for these people?

If you see me running in the community, I’ll gladly stop to say hi. I want to know what is important to the constituents of Winnipeg West.

Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau brought Canada through unprecedented challenges while being continuously sabotaged and defamed by Pierre Poilievre, a number of Provincial Premiers, and complicit members of the press, but through it all is still a true statesman. He will be missed

Dr Doug Eyolfson @drdougeyolfson.bsky.social · 03/03/2025

Marty Morantz, it says quite clearly in the article: ‘When he became Bank of England governor in 2013, Mr. Harper wrote that Mr. Carney was a “valued partner” and helped his government “steer Canada away from the worst impacts of the global economic recession.”’ It appears that Mr Harper is lying

Dear Prime Minister Kier Starmer; Thousands of Canadians died defending Britain in 2 wars. Meanwhile, you could not even bother to contradict President Trump over plans to annex Canada. You have desecrated the memory of every Canadian soldier who died defending your nation.

In the face of today’s disgraceful display the White House, it is clear that Ukraine cannot depend on the United States for support. Meanwhile, @pierrepolievre and CPC voted against a vital free trade agreement with Ukraine. Not MAGA Mr Poilievre? Canadians don’t believe you.

Meanwhile, in Canada, Pierre Poilievre is on record opposing vaccine mandates and public health measures in future epidemics/pandemics, and openly supported antivaxxers who terrorized Ottawa and shut down borders. Pierre Poilievre is simply a danger to the health of Canadians.

Dr Doug Eyolfson @drdougeyolfson.bsky.social · 27/02/2025

So, Pierre Poilievre, you are on record of opposing: -CERB that kept Canadians fed and housed during the pandemic -pharmacare -dental care -child care -school lunch programs You are opposed to ‘spending’ that helps to improve the lives of Canadians.

Canada Safeway: Canadians want to buy Canadian products, and you obviously know that. So maybe when you are advertising a product as Canadian it should actually be Canadian. (And if you claim this was an honest mistake, I don’t believe you). Canadians deserve better

60 years ago today, this flag was raised for the first time all across Canada, including at the RCMP station in Headingley, Manitoba. That day we watched my father, an RCMP officer, raise our new flag. I am proud that this moment is part of my life

Dr Doug Eyolfson @drdougeyolfson.bsky.social · 11/02/2025

@pierrepoilievre Now you’re claiming that Canada is great? You’ve spent the last 2 years telling everyone Canada is broken. Nothing like plummeting in the polls to make you change your tune.

Dr Doug Eyolfson @drdougeyolfson.bsky.social · 08/02/2025

To Marty Morantz and Pierre Poilievre: You may have heard of this little hiccup that started in 2020 (a pandemic that killed more Canadians than World War 2 and ground the world economy to a halt for 2 years). Would you have let people starve to avoid a deficit? Yes or no? 🤔

2195

Dr Doug Eyolfson @drdougeyolfson.bsky.social · 08/02/2025

Is @PierrePoilievre actually basing his campaign on the same slogan as a foreign leader who is trying to destroy Canada’s economy? (BTW how’s that security clearance coming, Pierre?)

Honoured to have been invited to Toronto for the Heart & Stroke Foundation National Roundtable on Cardiac Arrest, and to give my perspective as an ER physician, a CPR provider (on a bus), and someone who is alive because people knew CPR. Thanks to Katie White for the opportunity

Dr Doug Eyolfson @drdougeyolfson.bsky.social · 06/02/2025

My article published in today’s Winnipeg Free Press countering misinformation regarding advance directives in medical care. To be clear: advance directives are not a ‘shortcut’ to fast-tracking MAID.

Dr Doug Eyolfson @drdougeyolfson.bsky.social · 05/02/2025

Pierre Poilievre & Morty Morantz: Remember when your party criticized PM Trudeau for setting up a contract with a Canadian internet provider and wanted to give control of Canada’s northern and military communications to Elon Musk’s Starlink?

So Donald Trump has just delayed instituting tariffs on Canadian goods. Thank you Prime Minister Trudeau

I have been accused of being ‘alarmist’ over statements about how Canada’s right wing is bringing toxic anti-science policies to Canada. But now,science and public health in Canada are in real danger, and people are going to die if we allow this to continue

13311

Dr Doug Eyolfson @drdougeyolfson.bsky.social · 27/01/2025

From Winnipeg Free Press (Jan 27): @PierrePoilievre and CPC have been actively courting anti-science/anti-vaccine activists, and if elected, will become a serious threat to the health and safety of Canadians. This is why I am running in the next federal election.

Dr Doug Eyolfson @drdougeyolfson.bsky.social · 25/01/2025

As usual, I am nervous over the possibility that this will happen in our waiting room today while I am working, and I will be asked ‘Is there anything you could have done differently?’ This will continue to happen as long as our departments are full of patients with nowhere to go.

I survived a cardiac arrest, had bypass surgery and received a bill of $0.00. I am alive today because Canada is not broken.

Dr Doug Eyolfson @drdougeyolfson.bsky.social · 28/12/2024

It is one thing to oppose a politician because you disagree with their policies. This has unfortunately become the new normal for behaviour thanks to the toxic rhetoric and support of extremism by Pierre Poilievre and the CPC. Someone is going to get hurt. Canada, we have to be better than this.

Whenever I hear someone in Canada say this, I have to ask: How do you say that in Cree?

While l was working in ICU desperately trying to keep COVID patients alive and Prime Minister Trudeau was procuring vaccines and enacting life-saving public health measures, Pierre Polievre was courting antivax conspiracy theorists. Canada is not immune to what is happening in the US

Jamil Jivani: Having read the entire Bible (twice) I know this: Jesus was a socialist Palestinian Jewish man who taught that you should share your wealth and that hate has no place in the world. Your leader (Pierre Poilievre) and your party party (CPC) are not exactly living by that example.
