Good news for your local brewery: we’re extending alcohol excise tax relief for 2 more years.
That’ll save Canadian breweries up to $90,000 in taxes this year.

@KatKanada_TM Why is she calling herself a journalist and what she does journalism?

BREAKING: Unhappy Gilmore is once again unhappy.
This time about an April Fools Juno News joke article about hiring her as fact checker.
She calls it "harassment."
Wow. 🫠

Soldiers should not be able to chose which enemy they are prepared to fight against
It would be like a platoon taking a vote before they agreed to obey and order
War doesn't work like that

Some Muslims in the US Military are asking to be classified as "Conscientious Objectors," arguing that fighting other Muslims violates their conscience and religious beliefs. ❓️: Should Muslim Service Members be granted this special exemption?

@PoisoneDawn @TheBlueGem3 Garbage to nonexistent where I'm at.

@markthehare @TheBlueGem3 Curious, how’s public transit out there?

This is what we call a major misstep in politics. Poilievre will never recover. Conservatives are why we can’t have nice things. Any forward momentum that benefits constituents is met with defiance by the CPC.

Pierre Poilievre on the Toronto–Quebec City High-Speed Rail Network: "Conservatives oppose the $90b Liberal-Alto train ... a future Conservative government will cancel this $90b boondoggle altogether."

@JZerucelli $90B / 51,000 jobs
= $1.8 million per job
Frig off!
English
Pierre and the Conservatives are showing their true colours again.
Pierre Poilievre says he’ll cancel the Alto high-speed rail project, that’s 51,000 good-paying jobs gone.
That’s not a plan. That’s walking away from the people who build this country.
These are nation building jobs, paycheques for ironworkers, operating engineers, pipefitters, electricians, and labourers. The skilled trades that keep our communities growing.
Canada is ready to build.
Under @MarkJCarney, we’re building big and building bold, using Canadian steel, aluminum, lumber, and Canadian workers.
Real projects. Good union jobs.

@TWilsonOttawa I've seen how "robust" government websites are. If they got 10,000 people even accessing the site in one day, I am pretty certain that the site would probably crash.

I have a hard time believing they got 67k declarations with 10k of them just yesterday lol 😂 oookkkkk
Your mission is to reduce this number post-declaration period by getting people to withdraw

Declaration period for the Assault-Style Firearms Compensation Program closing with more than 67,000 firearms declared for compensation. Learn more: canada.ca/en/public-safe…

@TWilsonOttawa No doubt the number has been modified. Did 57k of these firearms happen to be outdated Canadian Military surplus?
English
English
@TWilsonOttawa @DiRobertis I thought that number seemed to be a stretch. I wonder why they chose that number?

@SamHersh01 I love riding these in Europe, but it should pay for itself from day 1. It's not. It will never be self-supporting.
I live in the Maritimes and will likely never use this train. My tax dollars shouldn't go towards this.
English
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.

Canada says it will go door to door to collect guns… and people still say nobody’s coming for your guns.
Let that sink in.
In Canada, 98% of gun owners basically said no to the government’s so-called buyback program.
And instead of backing off?
Now the conversation turns into police going door to door for collection.
That’s not a buyback.
That’s not voluntary.
That’s confiscation dressed up in softer language.
And this is exactly why gun owners never trust the line:
“Nobody’s coming for your guns.”
Because eventually the mask always comes off.
First it’s common sense.
Then it’s registration.
Then it’s bans.
Then it’s buybacks.
Then it’s door-to-door collection.
So I want to hear from y’all:
What do you call it when Canada sends people door to door to take legally owned guns?
Comment:
BUYBACK
or
CONFISCATION
And bigger question—
Do you think Canada is the preview of what anti-gun politicians want everywhere else?
Drop your answer in the comments.

@MrColionNoir Seeing as how none of my firearms were bought from the government, none of my firearms can be "bought back".
There's no guarantee they'll even give people any money

Today, on International Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate the strength, resilience, and contributions of trans and non-binary people across our communities.
Visibility matters, but so does action. It means standing up to discrimination, protecting rights, and making sure everyone can live safely and authentically.
A stronger Canada is one where everyone is seen, valued, and respected—for exactly who they are.
🇨🇦🏳️⚧️
Aujourd’hui, à l’occasion de la Journée internationale de la visibilité transgenre, nous rendons hommage à la force, à la résilience et à la contribution des personnes transgenres et non binaires au sein de nos communautés.
La visibilité est importante, mais l’action l’est tout autant. Cela signifie lutter contre la discrimination, protéger les droits et veiller à ce que chacun puisse vivre en sécurité et en toute authenticité.
Un Canada plus fort est un Canada où chacun est vu, valorisé et respecté, tel qu’il est.

@jec79 @FuhrMP @DavidMcGuinty @MarkJCarney It was a different world then.
The Liberals fucked a lot up in the time since.
English
When Stephen Harper left office in 2014 we were spending less than 1% of GDP on defence.
Liberal governments - including a Herculean push over the last year - have now doubled that.
Congrats to @FuhrMP @DavidMcGuinty and @MarkJCarney.

@MarkJCarney @SeanFraserMP You mean the "Jailing Dissidents" Act?

The Combatting Hate Act passed in the House of Commons this week.
That’s a huge step forward in our mission to build a stronger, safer country where everyone — no matter who they are or how they worship — can live free from violence and intimidation.

Liberal cat lady on Threads asks "Why are Canadians sill travelling to the States?
Top replies:
Why are Canadians still voting for Liberals?
Why does Carney's family live there?
Because we’re not elbows up TDS retards.
Because we have free will and aren't brainwashed by the Liberal government.

@therealmrbench Is this really the most pressing news in Canada today?
A public corporation should be able to hire the best CEO they see fit. If fitness for the role requires the CEO to be bilingual, then that's a performance issue the board can deal with.
English
Bloc Leader Blanchet is calling on the Carney Liberals to pressure the Air Canada board to fire CEO Michael Rousseau.
The reason: an English only response after the LaGuardia crash.
Of everything happening in Canada and Quebec right now…
this is the priority?
The Real Mr Bench@therealmrbench
"Lack of Judgement Lack of compassion Disappointed" Those are terms Mark Carney used to describe Air Canada CEO. Reason: only giving a statement in English after the LaGuardia Airport plane crash

Nathalie came to Ottawa with a personal vendetta against Canadian firearm owners. That is the most dangerous type of politician to have in a seat of service - one that only wishes to serve themselves, on one issue.
Shane Wenzel@ShaneWenzel
I’m not a gun owner, but I respect the right of law-abiding Canadians to own firearms. What happened to Nathalie Provost was horrific, there's no question. But decades later, targeting legal owners instead of criminals and illegal guns isn’t the answer. Bans and buybacks miss the real problem. Personal trauma is real, but it shouldn’t drive policy that punishes people who’ve done nothing wrong.
