Iran war the latest crisis affecting food banks as usage in Toronto hits record high cp24.com/local/toronto/…

@21mimi8 @visegrad24 Why aren't her relatives holding her accountable? Like they do to women who are not their relatives in Iran?

@visegrad24 So are we holding people accountable for their relatives now? Where do we draw the line between association and personal responsibility?

The grandniece of slain Iranian terror mastermind Gen. Qasem Soleimani lived a lavish life in the USA whilst her mother promoted the Iranian Regime. Sarinasadat Hosseiny, 25, and her mother, Hamideh Soleimani Afshar, were arrested after the State Department terminated their permanent resident status and had their green cards revoked due to her ties the terrorist Iranian regime.

@Northerman102 @ryangerritsen Crazy that Canadians don't want a $30+/h job at Tim Hortons. Oh wait, that's not what Canadians get paid. My bad.

@ryangerritsen Looks like they are filling a need with lower level jobs, Tim Hortons, Amazon delivery, Bus Drivers etc. Jobs most people don't want.

Ottawa’s OC Transpo just deleted this post.

@JPChamberlainX I wish I was a little bit taller.

I wish I was a bigger account. I wish my voice was louder, and could reach and "influence" more people. It isn't, and I don't. Yet I keep posting, because it's the one thing (besides voting) that I can do to try to preserve the country I love for my children and grandchildren.

@Cappy_Nate @HTBF1968 Yes but those other countries don't have LPC insiders that want in on the action.

High Speed Rail Costs By Country (excl tunnels): 🇨🇳 $25m/km 🇸🇦 $30m/km 🇪🇸 $30m/km 🇫🇷 $35m/km 🇪🇺 $40m/km 🇰🇷 $40m/km 🇯🇵 $50m/km 🇨🇦 $160m/km At similar costs to every other country, this costs $25B. Not $90B.

@MrJoKeR604 Nobody hates HSR. Everyone hates billions of dollars going to LPC insiders for a HSR line that will never be completed.

It's actually insane that Pierre is trying to make improvements to our outdated transportation infrastructure a partisan issue. That's all this guy does, drive a wedge, create division.

@IainMacBets He's probably referring to the human rights violations committed by the Trudeau LPCs.

What in the flying fuck is he talking about. Worry about your own country.

@Reil76 Yes.

Alberta, is this what you want for your LGTBQ community? People mocking them and making fun of them? Is this the Alberta you want for your children?

@devaraj227 @xenocosmography Leaving people alone who want to destroy your civilization has never really worked out that well in the past, unfortunately. Great solution on paper, though.

@xenocosmography White Zionists bomb the crap out of Muslims in the ME... leading to White liberals feeling guilty and wanting to support Islam in the West... leading to more Muslims coming to the West. Maybe leave the Muslims in the ME alone and keep the West White? Just saying.

Never get so racist that you forget white leftists are the worst people in the world. x.com/libsoftiktok/s…

@FechoLarry @LivinTheFringe Why is that corrupt?

@backwards_time @LivinTheFringe That wasn’t the corruption I was talking about.. the Sam Mriache and other corporation corruption.. however, when UCP redid the curriculum without teachers and hired out to a US entity, that is corruption

Copied from Facebook Danielle Smith said this to Alberta NDP leader Naheed Nenshi, when he tried to question her government’s new bill that would remove ideology, politics and ideology flags from schools, and we couldn’t agree with her more: “We saw exactly what we do not want in our schools at the NDP convention last weekend. People showing their equity cards so they can determine what intersectional definitions they have to be able to bump the line so they can bump somebody else and miss naming on pronouns. That has been obsessing the schools for the last ten years. Parents want to get back to the basics. They want their kids to read, be able to do Math, coding and be able to do critical thinking. Not critical theory,” Wow!! This woman says it exactly like it’s. She says what we’re all thinking. We need more leaders like Danielle Smith. 💙🔥

@Reil76 Maybe we'll have to settle for a good deal like Quebec did. Would that make you happy?

The Alberta separatist movement isn’t some unstoppable wave, it’s a loud minority that can’t even hit its own targets. You needed around 350k signatures to show real momentum and you came up with 177k. That’s not a movement, that’s barely a warm up. And even if you somehow crossed that threshold, it doesn’t mean Alberta just walks out of Canada. That’s not how this works. You’re talking about years of legal battles, constitutional hurdles, negotiations with the federal government, Indigenous treaty obligations, economic fallout, currency issues, trade barriers, and massive uncertainty for businesses and workers. Not 90 days, regardless of what Keith says. There’s no clean break. No easy exit. No “just vote and we’re gone.” Meanwhile, the idea that Alberta would somehow be stronger alone ignores reality. The province benefits massively from being part of Canada through internal trade, transfer systems, shared infrastructure, and global credibility. Walking away doesn’t make those problems disappear, it multiplies them. So no, Alberta isn’t leaving Canada. Not now, not anytime soon. And a half completed petition isn’t proof of anything except how small the movement actually is. And to all Albertans that don’t want any part of this, the rest of Canada knows, and we don’t group you all in the same basket! We still love you.

@FechoLarry @LivinTheFringe How is separation of ideology and state corrupt?

@LivinTheFringe Keep gaslighting so as Albertans don’t see the corruption and destruction the UCP has and continues to carry out… sad.. true blue supporters can’t see

@VoyceReason Roads fall under provincial and municipal jurisdiction. Except for the TCH.

Gas taxes fund road maintenance. Remove the funding, and the potholes don't get fixed. If the potholes aren't fixed, the line is "Look at all the potholes the Liberals caused!!!" Conservatives aren't interested in making your life better, they're interested in making you angry.

@IraninSA @cduhaime Wasn't that the Persians?

Stone Age? At a time when you were still in caves searching for fire, we were inscribing human rights on the Cyrus Cylinder. We endured the storm of Alexander and the Mongol invasions and remained; because Iran is not just a country, it is a civilization.

@SamHersh01 @brenchie23 More like conservatives don't want $90b going to LPC insiders for a high speed train that will never be built.

Canada is literally the only G7 country without high speed rail. Conservatives want you to continue to pay sky high prices for gas, worsen congestion on roads and make your commute hours longer. We've been "studying" high speed rail for 50 years - time to get it built.

@TrueDerekSloan I can think of another reason why they are limiting visits to once a month.

Canada is facing a moral and spiritual crisis. Most of our problems would still exist to some degree even without some of the glaring mistakes our leaders have made the last few decades, but they have been made significantly worse because of them. Adding millions of extra people to Canada was one such mistake.

@Albertan_1905 @ABDanielleSmith @avilewis @nenshi It is 💯 the party of the mentally unstable.

This weekend, NDP members elected self-declared “eco-socialist” Avi Lewis @avilewis as their leader. Lewis has called for a full ban on new pipelines and all fossil fuel development, at a time when the world needs Alberta energy more than ever. And while Naheed Nenshi @nenshi may try to distance himself, the Alberta NDP’s own constitution makes clear they are tied to the federal party. The truth is, the Alberta NDP has a long track record of opposing pipelines and energy development. Their extreme views are a danger to jobs and affordability. The UCP will never stop fighting against radical forces, including the Alberta NDP, who want to shut down our economy and keep our resources in the ground.

@1StarAtaTyme Did you send a similar email regarding the members that wore keffiyehs? Why not?

I just emailed the Speaker of the House regarding the use of props and decorum during the recent vote on Bill C-9. Feel free to copy and send this email to Speaker.President@parl.gc.ca

@MrJoKeR604 That's interesting. A lot of people feel the same way about the keffiyeh.🤔

I'm all for freedom of religion in Canada, it's one of our fundamental rights. But...wtf? I don't want to see our politicians standing in the House of Commons holding a bible or any religious book to their chest.

@ggrmcd @jamiljivani @JDVance Destruction? Like Charlie Kirk's assassination?

Hey @jamiljivani did your buddy south of the border @JDVance tell you to pull this stunt? Because it doesn’t fly here in Canada the way it would in the US. We have seen the destruction religious extremism has caused down there. Keep this bullshit out of the HOC.
