slightly cranky

@guychristensen_ Covid. FFS. We let a virus that impacts the immune and other systems run rampage through children and adolescents because " it wouldn't kill them". Their parents absolutely failed them.

Why does most of Gen Z have chronic health issues already?

@archop3ga @CTVNews Do you not understand what diplomacy is? Walking out on a war criminal is absolutely diplomacy, and diplomats are absolutely activists for their countries. Leaving signaled to like-minded countries that they are open to discussions. Canada signaled that we have chosen war crimes.

@CTVNews As much as I dislike him — he’s right. These people are supposed to be diplomats. Not activists. Diplomacy means sometimes listening to/engaging with adversaries. If they aren’t going to do that, then what’s the point of the UN?

‘That’s my job’: Bob Rae on why he didn’t walk out on Netanyahu speech at UN ctvnews.ca/politics/artic…

@Tony48Tiger @terry_truchan Of course he did, and if he had stayed in the Conservative Party, Stephen would be fawning all over him.

To all the CONs out there flooding their pages with doom about PM Carney & our economy Harper & his finance minister Flaherty PRAISED Carney for steering 🇨🇦 through the financial collapse of 2008/09 You want housing, pipelines & infrastructure? IT COSTS MONEY TO BUILD! #cdnpoli

@TorontoStar I guess he didn't get the riot he wanted in the other cities, so he's going to try in Portland. Absolutely gross, and there are actually Canadians that want this here.

Trump says he will send troops to Portland, Oregon, in latest deployment to US cities trib.al/B0JX2XW

@IVoteClimate @atrupar Those markets are gone, and they aren't coming back. They have found other suppliers and are much happier making deals with countries that aren't erratic and unreliable.

@atrupar Is Senator Thune unaware that Congress can end the tariffs? That would be the fastest way to make those markets come back. Congressional Republicans apparently put their spines and testicles in jars as Inauguration gifts to their orange asshole.

Thune: "We've got a big harvest coming in here in South Dakota, corn and soybeans, and no place to go with it ... we are looking at potential solutions to make sure we can help support farmers until some of those markets come back."

@ManibalMf @TMSCalgary @globeandmail That's the whole point - this is an untapped market. We can massively increase our trade here. They have a huge population.

@TMSCalgary @globeandmail A whopping 0.35% is our trade with Indonesia. Not even one percent.

Carney defends trips abroad, says visits further agenda on trade, investment theglobeandmail.com/world/article-…

@globeandmail How on earth did we get to a point where the Prime Minister of Canada has to defend flying around the world to meet with international leaders? That's half the job of being PM and it's what all PM's since the beginning have done.

@DalipPrasad @_mamay_47 @JasonOnTheDrums @ABDanielleSmith @Alberta_UCP No, I would not.

@_mamay_47 @JasonOnTheDrums @ABDanielleSmith @Alberta_UCP Would you agree then that Alberta teachers have one on highest income in Canada and the highest disposable income after source deduction.

#ableg #abpoli Since 2019, the UCP has attacked: 🧑‍⚕️ Nurses 👩‍⚕️ Doctors 👨‍🏫 Teachers 👷‍♀️ Frontline workers They’ve fought to cover up: 💰 Health Care Privatization 💴 Funnelling money into Private Schools 💵 Giving $1,000,000,000 to MH Care This isn’t leadership - it’s betrayal

@DalipPrasad @JasonOnTheDrums @ABDanielleSmith @Alberta_UCP I'm sorry? You know you can just Google teacher salaries, right? This isn't even close to true, and if you are this wrong on basics, I can only assume how wrong you are on everything else.

@JasonOnTheDrums @ABDanielleSmith @Alberta_UCP I am very sorry for hyper inflation, but none of us got 30% raise in the last five years either. There is only one taxpayer who is footing the bill. Alberta already has the highest paid teachers in Canada already. @ABDanielleSmith, you are doing a great job. Keep it up.

@SpencerHakimian I don't blame them. America is not a safe place to be for anyone.

Subaru announces it is closing American production facilities and is moving back to Japan. x.com/financedystop/…

@danielzambrano @CTVNews Why? Trump would probably have ICE arrest him for not licking his boots properly. The US can come to us. Their tourism is tanking, their farmers are running out of potash, and they are becoming increasingly isolated.

@CTVNews He could drive a couple of hours south, with his elbows down, to this country in which 95 percent of our exports usually go to. And if you reached Mexico, you drove south way too much.

Carney says international meetings are ‘necessary’ to opening new markets ctvnews.ca/sports/article…

@Sonsof1977 @CanadianPolling Canada is part of the entire global economy, and what happens globally affects us. I'm not even a Liberal. I'm just tired of the CPC complaining with no solutions offered. If you want an American economy, go South, just check your rights at the border.

And yet 1.1% is still abismal compared to nearly 4% in the US. Why would you think that was even a reasonably valid argument? I don't care about the rest of the world, the Liberal party is responsible for Canada. You people have become awefully comfortable making justifications for failure, as long as it's anyone but a conservative. If the Conservatives performed like that, you would all be crying.

Would you trust Pierre Poilievre with the economy? 🔵

@Sl1m15Y @jakerattlesnk There are some kids playing in the background, but other than that I don't see any other people. What swarms are you talking about?

@jakerattlesnk I live in vienna, its much worse than shown on video. Women are afraid to walk the streets after 8pm, you have to watch over your shoulder so you dont get stabbed. And in the 10th district, numerous knife attacks and what did the Gov. do? Put up a "Weapon Restricion" sign

I’m in Vienna… If you’re a Christian, brace yourself.

@Sonsof1977 @CanadianPolling The only g7 country that beat us in GDP growth last year was the US. GDP growth was affected globally in the last decade, so unless you think the Canadian Liberal Party is powerful enough to affect the economies of the developed world, that doesn't really fly.

We have zero new trade deals, we have talk and non binding agreements of understanding. Trump had very little to do with our low GDP. Take a look at the negligible GDP Growth in the last ten years. You can blame anything you want but the blame lies in one place. If Trump wanted to "crush" us he would have. There would have been 100%+ tariffs on every single export. Tariffs are used for trade negotiations, it isn't like Canada doesn't do it.

@RydiaLockheart @NHLPA Oddly, in Canada, crime dropped in the three years where we had high immigration and in the US immigrants have much lower rates of committing crimes than US born citizens, so I guess that sucks for you

@ephenas @NHLPA You're right, women are unsafe in Canada as long as you continue importing foreigners with a 7th-century mindset

NHLPA statement on Dillon Dube, Cal Foote, Alex Formenton, Carter Hart and Michael McLeod:

@RydiaLockheart @drewmacck @NHLPA I don't think anyone in America is in a good position to talk about legal systems right now as your legal rights get stripped away.

@drewmacck @ephenas @NHLPA We don't want her here either.

@angryirishmac @NHLPA Yes, she did. She won the civil suit against them and never wanted this one. It was filed by the state.

@ephenas @NHLPA What suit did she win? You realize she never filed a suit against them right?

@Sonsof1977 @CanadianPolling The GDP finanlly rebounded after Trump tried to crush us, keeping us out of a recession. We have new trade deals with multiple countries to protect our market from the Americans. Pierre would have no ability to make international deals and would just roll over for the US.

Well seeing as Mark Carney, the "world renowned economist" has failed for six months, I am willing to give Poilievre the chance. It isnt complicated, it doesnt require a degree or PhD. Cut government spending, balance the budget, reduce taxes to induce investment and spending, and get out of the way.

@CanadianPolling absolutely not.

@emilyinvc A straight, white man, making gaming references who came from a republican gun-loving family killed him. Look to your own house.

Charlie Kirk’s positions were actually fairly moderate. And yet they killed him for them and celebrated the murder. If you or your loved ones held those beliefs, they would do the same to you without remorse.
