WE DO NOT SWEAR ALLEGIENCE TO THE BRITISH MONARCHY WE SWEAR ALLEGIENCE TO THE CANADIAN CROWN FOR THE LOVE OF GOODNESS The performative separatism is so cringe my man.
J'ai personnellement pris la plume pour demander à la lieutenante-gouverneure de s'abstenir de participer à la cérémonie d’assermentation du nouveau conseil des ministres. Dans cette lettre, j'ai réitéré la position que j’ai soumise aux électeurs lors de la campagne électorale à l’égard de la monarchie britannique, à savoir que nous avons la ferme intention d’abolir sa présence au Québec, tant dans nos institutions démocratiques que dans notre société civile. Nous considérons évidemment que la légitimité des actions politiques et gouvernementales relève de la volonté démocratiquement exprimée par le peuple du Québec et non pas de la permission que pourrait nous octroyer un souverain étranger. Pour cette occasion, c’est donc le secrétaire général du gouvernement du Québec qui fera en sorte que les ministres puissent prêter serment envers le peuple du Québec. La lieutenante-gouverneure nous confirme qu’elle suivra la cérémonie à la télévision depuis son bureau et qu’elle sera en mesure de signer les documents au fur et à mesure qu’ils lui seront transmis. Les ministres pourront ainsi débuter leur travail dès demain, ce qui demeure essentiel dans un contexte où les mandats qui leur seront confiés exigeront un effort immédiat. Les institutions que sont la gouverneure générale et les lieutenants-gouverneurs coûtent 60 millions de dollars aux contribuables du Canada. Je m'engage à rediriger les sommes que nous pouvons récupérer au Québec dans ce symbole archaïque de la domination coloniale britannique vers les besoins en itinérance.

Imagine being so desperate to win an election that your supporters start digging through your opponent's childhood trauma. And you're still losing.

Elections Alberts just confiirmed that they don't know if all of their polls are closed so that's why we don't have results. Given our top resource, it's wild how poorly an oiled machine we are.
Referendum results will start to come after 10:10, as Blood Tribe polling station is staying open to 10:10 p.m. and will be the last to close.

Vivek Ramaswamy registered as an attorney in New York and as a voter in Ohio at different addresses, which would mean he either violated New York State Bar registration laws or Ohio voter registration laws.

I am honestly trying to figure out if this is a troll ... or someone who really doesn't understand what a liturgy is.
I’m watching a Roman Catholic Mass on TV. So far, a priest has bowed to a table and kissed something on the table. He’s reading something and people are saying things back to him. Now he is praying. Now a woman is reading from Isaiah. Singing. The woman is reading one of Paul’s letters to the Thessalonians. Singing. The priest is reading from Matthew. Now he’s explaining the passage that he read which was about paying taxes. Give to Caesar what is Caesar and to God what is God’s. He bows to the table again. He reads something and the congregation responds. The woman reads something else. The woman leads in prayer. The congregation responds again at certain points in the prayer. The priest reads more. Music. The priest is at the table preparing a cup. More words and responses. Singing. More words from the priest. Talking about the last supper. Singing. Priest praying. Priest singing something over the cracker and wine. More singing. Praying the Our Father. More sing. More words from priest. He then eats the cracker and drinks the wine. More singing while the congregation comes to get their crackers. Moment of silence. Prayer. Priest dismisses congregation. Priest kisses something on the table again. Priest bows to table again. The end. My take: The gospel wasn’t preached. It was all ritual and very dry. I don’t see how anyone could come to faith in Jesus in that environment.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Per the post itself, the priest read from the Gospel of Matthew and then preached about it. "The priest is reading from Matthew. Now he’s explaining the passage that he read which was about paying taxes. Give to Caesar what is Caesar and to God what is God’s." Source: x.com/puglistfan82/s…

I had a very jarring dream overnight that is making me rethink some things. If I could get your prayers as I discern what God is trying to get me to do, that would be truly awesome.

PM Mark Carney says 4 service members died and dozens were injured after a fast-moving fire at CFB Wainwright. He described what happened as one of the worst tragedies for the military on Canadian soil in peacetime.

I am on my way to Edmonton. I will get briefed on the latest developments regarding the terrible incident that occurred at CFB Wainwright. The Department of National Defence continues to work closely with the Government of Alberta and local authorities. Thank you to first responders, Canadian Armed Forces members, and provincial officials for their efforts. To the families and everyone in Wainwright: Canada stands with you.
