This is completely backwards. Like in so many European countries, post-secondary tuition in Canada should be free! www.makeusgreat.ca/p/whatever-h... #onpoli

Higher fees = higher debt = less access for the students who need education most. That’s not fairness, that’s austerity. Make tuition free! www.makeusgreat.ca/p/whatever-h... #onpoli

After promising to cap, not cut the public service during the election & Speech from the Throne, Carney’s budget cuts 28,000 jobs. The reversal—delivered by the MP for Nepean, home to 1000s of federal workers—feels contemptuous. #cdnpoli #abpoli #onpoli #goc www.makeusgreat.ca/p/canadas-fe...

Canada has shown very little support for Canadian International Criminal Court judge Kimberly Prost, who has been sanctioned by the US for daring to investigate alleged American war crimes in Afghanistan five years ago. We abandon international law at our own peril. #cdnpoli #canpoli

This is madness. Freeland cannot remain a federal MP while being appointed a special advisor by a foreign government. She needs to resign from one of these two positions. This is plainly obvious and it reflects very poorly on Freeland and Carney. #cdnpoli #canpoli #Ukraine

Pathetic lack of condemnation of Trump admin threats against Greenland by Canada and the even the EU. This timid behaviour is only going to embolden Trump.

Norway started its oil fund 14 years AFTER Alberta. Today, it sits at $2.4 trillion — 100× larger than our Heritage Fund. Same-sized populations. Higher-value oil explains some of the gap. But the real story? Alberta stopped saving. Imagine what we could have built. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli
A simple line chart showing the difference in growth in two resource funds—Alberta's Heritage Fund and Norway's Government Pension Fund Global—between 2004 and 2025. Norway's fund is worth nearly 100 times the Alberta fund.

Alberta could have saved its oil wealth and used its dividends to build the world’s best public health care system. Instead, it mismanaged and squandered resource revenues—and Albertans are paying the price. www.makeusgreat.ca/p/the-fund-t... #cdnpoli #abpoli

Mark Carney is playing Canadians for fools. While people panic about Trump, he’s pushing pipelines and buying U.S. weapons — all while freezing pharmacare, cutting foreign aid, and slashing housing spending by 50%. Another broken promise in a worsening crisis. #cdnpoli

New National Pharmacare Committee of Experts report: "The committee rejects the idea of a limited "fill-the-gaps" model and instead advocates for universal, single-payer, publicly administered pharmacare based on human rights."

Around 80 per cent of the people in Canada support pharmacare, but the insurance industry and American pharmaceutical companies profiting from the current bloated system do not. Pharmacare is a test of who is driving, and what we really mean by, nation building. #cdnpoli

Canada’s politicians & media talk about the exploding military budget like it’s gravity—a natural law you don't question. As @nolore.bsky.social nails in this needed rant, we’re all sleepwalking into a forever-militarized country without real debate. #cdnpoli @sandela.bsky.social sandyandnora.com

Nutrien is building its next potash export terminal… in Washington, not Canada. Irony: its predecessor was a crown corp meant to keep Canadian interests first. Mark Carney claims private capital will flow in? We need public ownership + strong government action to serve Canadians. #cdnpoli

From pharmacare to military spending levels to cuts to foreign aid, Mark Carney has repeatedly lied to Canadians over just a few months of being on the federal scene. As @lindamcquaig.bsky.social argues, there’s now a compelling opportunity for an unapologetic leftist populist. #cdnpoli

Canadians prioritize healthcare, infrastructure and the fight against climate change change well over military spending. Yet the Mark Carney Liberals are instead focusing heavily on military spending in Budget 2025.

As leaders meet for #APEC2025, don’t forget Vancouver ’97 — peaceful protesters demanding human rights were met with pepper spray and force. Alongside uprisings of the Zapatistas in '94, these activists helped spark the anti-globalization protests of the 90s and 2000s.💥🇨🇦 #TBT #cdnpoli #bcpoli

Important reversal of sorts from @mark-carney.bsky.social on national pharmacare. After signalling over the last few months that pharmacare might not rollout to the remaining 5 provinces and 2 territories, the @liberalca.bsky.social government is now saying it will in fact do so.

You see, people are not merely protesting outside synagogues because they are Jewish. Protests are happing because synagogues, in a disgrace to our Jewish traditions, are hosting real estate auctions for illegal settlements in the West Bank built on stolen
Palestinian land.
That's fully deserving of protest!
You don't get to use our religion as a shield for doing shitty things!
People have every right to protest a place of worship when that place of worship does something bad!

There’s growing pressure on federal leaders to redirect public funds away from social programs—like child care, dental care and pharmacare—and toward military expansion. But Canada’s next government must protect & expand these programs—not abandon them. @mark-carney.bsky.social
