Biological male criminals identifying as trans aren't just being kept in women's prisons. For the ones too mentally ill for prison, they're being kept in women's psych wards, too. I wrote about two instances where this happened at CAMH. My column: nationalpost.com/opinion/jamie-…

@thewalrus Justin Ling is a proven source of misinformation. I guess he learned well while 'covering' it for years.

After years of covering misinformation, investigative journalist Justin Ling has reached a stark conclusion: “There is no amount of fact checking, media literacy, or platform moderation to solve the extent of this problem.” What comes after defeat? thewalrus.ca/the-war-agains…

Most Americans still don’t fully understand what happened under Biden… 8% of Nicaragua entered the US in 4 years. 8% of the entire country. 7% of Cuba. 6% of Haiti. 5% of Honduras.

Bloodletting for fever. Confident. Standard practice. Mercury tablets for syphilis. Confident. Widely prescribed. Radium water for low energy. Confident. Sold in pharmacies. Lobotomies for anxiety. Confident. Won a Nobel Prize. Thalidomide for morning sickness. Confident. Distributed to millions. Cigarettes for throat irritation. Confident. Doctor-endorsed advertising. Heroin for coughs. Confident. Marketed by Bayer. DDT sprayed in children's schools. Confident. Government-approved. Margarine instead of butter. Confident. Heart-healthy alternative. Dietary fat causes heart disease. Confident. Fifty years of guidelines. Statins for everyone over fifty. Confident. Best-selling drug in history. Seed oils are safe. Confident. Endorsed by every major health body. Meat is carcinogenic. Confident. WHO classification still stands. Every generation of doctors was confident. Every generation was wrong about something they were certain of. The question isn't whether to trust doctors. The question is which part of the current list turns out to be the thalidomide.

@Cherniak Lol. It shows she has no actual values or integrity. It shows the Libs care only about power.

There’s lots of talk about what the Gladu floor crossing means. In my view, it means that even somebody like her who disagrees strongly with many Liberal policies recognizes that this government is good for Canada. As long as the Liberal Party is not changing its policies to accommodate her, there is no reason to question where we stand on the issues on which she disagrees. Any Canadian willing to support the Liberals despite holding some views that the Liberal Party opposes should be welcome as long as they do not try to change what we stand for or make statements that would sow division. #cdnpoli

@BobPickard @natnewswatch Correct. Only they can decide their values, beliefs, and opinions can completely change overnight.

@natnewswatch If they do cross, I am sure it will be all their fault and nobody else’s. 🧐

Two anonymous Liberal sources tell CBC News Network that nine opposition MPs are in talks to cross the floor and join the Liberals.

@dkreative1 @natnewswatch @MarcLevesqueEco @PierrePoilievre 'How long until long term LPC leave in disgust?' Never. If 10 years of Trudeau wasn't enough, nothing would be.

This is Mark Carney living high on a power trip. These floor crosses aren’t crossing because they believe in him. The CPC are leaving @PierrePoilievre because they don’t believe in him. They’re all leaving because they’re getting great roles in the Liberal government. How long until long term LPC leave in disgust? Careful what you wish for

@RoarringFlames @nimmity_anna @natnewswatch People do vote for the individual in their riding. But it's based on that individuals party affiliation, meaning people are voting for a party leader and platform. To pretend otherwise is nonsense.

@nimmity_anna @natnewswatch 1. You vote in individual MPs that represent your riding. Party affiliation is secondary in our system, hence why the party whip exists. 2. Floor crossing has been in the constitution from day 1 3. Why would you call an election when you're on the verge of having a majority???

@TheGameSheet @nimmity_anna @natnewswatch I'd bet real money that the number of people voting for the person rather than their party affiliation is under 1 in 10. To pretend the vast majority don't vote locally based on who they want to run the country and implement their party platform is nonsense.

@nimmity_anna @natnewswatch 1. Because their vote elects people, not parties and it has always been this way. It’s how our system functions. 2. Because no party on earth in his position would. But I agree it would be nice and would support that! 3. Because the alternative is clearly worse.

@helps_sama @AnneF1610602 @natnewswatch The Liberals should be toast because they have made it plainly obvious they have no values, morals, or ethics. But 50+ % of voters in this country are idiots so they'll be fine.

@AnneF1610602 @natnewswatch No the Liberal party is toast. Who will ever trust a party of no values or integrity ever again? But unfortunately, Canada will be toast first.

@Thankmar2 @YoungStreete @Puffingtonpete2 The definition of 'fiscal conservative' is calling. You should pick up. And what is repulsive about Poilievre? Please be specific.

@YoungStreete @Puffingtonpete2 🤣🤣🤣 You don't trust that they would? Poilievre is so repulsive and Carney is a fiscal conservative so they are crossing

It’s time for the conservative MP’s, who have been approached by the Liberal Party, and chose not to defect, to disclose what they were offered.

@CanadianPolling I feel like I just said this the other day, but almost every day now, a poll comes out supporting my opinion that 6 or 7 of every 10 Canadians are stupid.

New polling finds 76% of Canadians say NATO should move on without the US

A foreigner named Mouhamad Al Jalmoud killed two Canadians and badly injured a third with a vehicle while fleeing police. He was given a complete discharge due to a PTSD defense. He hasn't learned English in 8 years. He didn't have a driver's license. He won't be deported.

@hollyanndoan @SCC_eng @JCCFCanada And he attended at least one private fundraiser for Mark Carney during the Liberal leadership race. #99.

Any Freedom Convoy appeal to Supreme Court @SCC_eng will be heard by Chief Justice who publicly called protestors anarchists and hostage takers. Chief Justice Richard Wagner's remarks were "highly inappropriate," said one legal group. blacklocks.ca/chief-judge-ca… @JCCFCanada #cdnpoli

Privy Council documents reveal Liberals' promise to build 500,000 homes per year was the result of what slogan a series of focus groups preferred, not an actual plan. junonews.com/p/building-hom…

Presumably the Prime Minister (with his much-touted intellect) knows and understands that his actions are undermining Canada’s multi-party democratic system, and slowly destroying voter confidence in elections. One can only conclude, therefore, that he simply doesn’t care.☹️

Chris d'Entremont - 23,024 votes Michael Ma - 27,055 votes Matt Jeneroux - 30,343 votes Marilyn Gladu - 26,292 votes We're now at 106,714 Conservative voters disenfranchised by the Prime Minister Carney and the Members of Parliament themselves. And don't tell me this is how our democracy works. In practice, it hasn't worked this way for 50+ years. Those voters reasonably expected to get Conservative MPs and now they're getting Liberals.

@MarkJCarney Neither of you have any integrity or shame. How far this country has fallen in just 11 years. I don't see a path back at this point. Voting is clearly meaningless. It's just a necessary show for the powers that be to keep enough believing Canada is a real democracy.

At this important moment for our country’s future, Canadians with a broad range of experience and perspectives are uniting to build Canada strong. I am honoured to welcome Marilyn Gladu today as the newest member of this government and our Liberal caucus. In a time of global economic uncertainty, Canada’s success will depend on how we build ambition into progress and strengths into sustained advantage. Marilyn brings the practical, results-driven leadership this effort demands. Having spent decades of her career in engineering and international business, she understands what it takes to create good jobs, strengthen supply chains, and ensure Canadian industry can compete in a rapidly changing global economy. She has been elected by the people of Sarnia—Lambton–Bkejwanong in four straight elections since 2015, and repeatedly earned recognition from colleagues across Parliament for her proven willingness to work constructively across party lines. I’m looking forward to working closely with Marilyn to build a stronger and more independent Canadian economy, meeting the challenges of a changing world with lasting opportunities for all.
