Even more reason for Canadians to boycott US goods and instead buy Canadian produce whenever possible!

We are grateful to those who built the world we live in and their struggles for a more just society. Thanks to the labour movement we have family-supporting jobs, weekends off and safer workplaces. And they continue this proud tradition by organizing for a better future.

Last night NDP voters saved Canada from the surging hard right, but had to sacrifice our own party in the process. Today the battle begins for a system where we don't have to do that any more. We badly need a party that can save Canada from the oligarchs who brought us all to the brink.

Can you imagine Pollievre doing this interview? Nardwuar would be limited to four pre-approved questions and forced to ask them behind a concrete barrier. (Which is an actual thing Pollievre does in press events.) I'd like a PM with a human soul please, not a Trumpy robot. youtu.be/TZmh_PNMImE?...

There are issues everywhere, obviously, but I'm increasingly convinced that the Japanese system of houses devaluing like cars is far more rational than ours. Housing should not be a retirement investment for average families - it should be *housing*.

Raise your hand if you’ve heard this: “A government’s budget is nothing like a family’s budget.” This might be the case for nations. But for cities, the financial reality is much closer to that of a family than it is to a federal government.

The best way to get gun control legislation is for the unplanned demographic to arm themselves. What is happening in this country is not normal. Arm yourself, while you can.

100%. Housing should be a depreciating asset like a car which you perform upkeep on to maintain the value of, not an "investment vehicle" for passive income for the wealthy class.

Last night, every Senate Democrat voted for my amendment calling for a $17 an hour federal minimum wage while every Republican but 1 opposed it. The movement to raise the minimum wage to a living wage is growing. In 2025, a job must lift you out of poverty, not keep you in it.

Every year, Canada loses up to $39 billion to corporations dodging taxes.  That's money that could:  - Build thousands of affordable homes - Hire doctors and nurses - Upgrade our roads and transit systems - Create good-paying union jobs across the country - And so much more.

Win? There's no value in delusion. If you want the federal NDP to continue to have a voice in federal politics you should be focusing on allying with, not alienating, Carney's Liberals and shutting down Poilievre before he sells our country to Trump. We need unity on the left to fight the far right.

Isn't that "big tent" what got us into this situation in the first place? Democrats had their chance at meaningful electoral reform, changing up the supreme court, single payer healthcare, statehood for DC and PR and flinched every time. We need a new opposition party working for the people.

100% targeting a candidate's family instead of the candidate's policies is cowardly. Hopefully a majority of Canadians see through this tactic and choose correctly at the election. We need a strong united Canada and PC schoolyard bullying is not the way forward.

Not surprisingly, Trump’s overall tax and tariff proposals would make the very rich much richer and working families poorer. If you earn less than $360,000 a year, your taxes are going to go way up. If you’re in the top 1%? Don’t worry. You’ll save big.
