I’m not a journalist. I’m an Alberta dad, husband, and trades worker. Over the past few days, I’ve been reading everything I can about the CSIS findings regarding Pierre Poilievre’s compromised position and lack of security clearance. Here’s what I’ve found. #cdnpoli

Elon Musk’s AI Grok Often Contradicts Him, Noted the Washington Post Moreover, when asked whether the businessman frequently spreads misinformation, the AI responded: “Yes. Elon Musk often spreads misinformation.” The billionaire had previously described Grok as “maximally truth-seeking, even if that truth is sometimes politically incorrect.”

We signed a free trade agreement.Trump tore it up. As for banks and dairy, Canada survived the American 2008 meltdown because our banking laws protected consumers. Theirs didn’t. On dairy the tariff trigger is so high it has never been used. Trump wants our minerals and water!
Why can’t we have an economic union with America where all tariffs are eliminated, including dairy? Why can’t American airlines, banks, cell providers, internet providers and other industries compete in Canada without being obstructed from doing so by our govt. regulators?

President @ZelenskyyUA and I spoke today. He updated me on Ukraine’s defence and global efforts to advance peace.   Canada strongly supports Ukraine’s fight for freedom against Russian aggression. Lasting peace in Ukraine means security for us all.

🔥 11 Years of Occupation — Turkey Stands Firm on Crimea! On the anniversary of Russia’s sham referendum in Crimea, Turkey reaffirms: it does not recognize the illegal annexation. Ankara continues to support Ukraine’s sovereignty.

I’m seeing attacks on PM Carney’s daughter, and I want to implore, as someone whose family has been indiscriminately targeted: In 🇨🇦, members of our family are off limits — leave them out of it. Attack the public office holder, attack our policies, but leave our families alone.

Replying to @elonmusk
It's because you're an oligarch who tries to buy political influence and interfere in elections in countries you know nothing about. People boycott your products because you represent everything that's wrong with politics. Some refer to this as 'FAFO'.

1939: Hitler isn't going to invade Poland. That's crazy! Germans won't support it. 2014: Putin isn't going to invade Ukraine. That's crazy! Russians won't support it. 2025: Trump isn't going to invade Canada and Greenland (Denmark). That's crazy! Americans won't support it.

Marco Rubio in Canada: "The president has made his argument as to why he thinks Canada would be better off joining the United States."

Question for marketing experts and economists who follow me—I’m genuinely curious: Can a brand name like that of Tesla, which has been severely damaged by its CEO, recover? If so, how? Are there any precedents for this? I think for a lot of consumers the picture below is the first thing that comes to their minds now when they think about Tesla and other Musk-associated brands.

Just left Ukraine. What I saw proved to me we can’t give up on the Ukrainian people. Everyone wants this war to end, but any agreement has to protect Ukraine’s security and can’t be a giveaway to Putin. Let me tell you about my trip and why it’s important we stand with Ukraine.🧵

Canadian here. I understand that many Americans don't support Trump. They want to rise above in disbelief of what Trump is doing as fantasy and trolling. They want to believe that they are not part of what he is doing. 1939 Germany did the same thing. Wake the fuck up.

As a Canadian I want Americans to stop telling me how bad they feel. I don’t care. I’m volunteering in Ukraine while the USA is helping russia slaughter Ukrainians and threatening to destroy and annex Canada. I have no emotional energy left to give you absolution. Sorry.

Zelensky has thanked Trump, Congress, and the American people many times. But let's be clear: when Trump and Vance said that THEY are trying to help Ukraine right now, and need to be thanked for the work personally, there are reasons to wonder. 1/ THREAD

It is unconscionable to allow Russia to assault Ukraine’s sovereignty, recruit enemies like North Korea to aid in their fight, and then sell out the Ukrainians by conceding the loss of their territory and NATO security guarantees or membership.  By making these and others concessions before negotiations even started, Trump has effectively surrendered to Putin on Ukraine. 1/3

So far the authorities have yet to arrest Conor Garland for heinously assaulting an Edmonton man on Saturday night. It has been nearly 72 hours, what is the world coming to?

Joe Rogan & Mel Gibson yesterday were dismissing climate change as a hoax while Gibson's house was burning down in a wildfire exacerbated by climate change. Climate change is real, please stop getting (dis)information from contrarian podcasters who'd fail a junior science exam
