Your periodic reminder that the #LNP Nasty Party wants to kill #Medicare and would privatise education, social security, education, and the entire bloody government, given half a chance. Now the #Coalition has a playbook: US's #Project2025.

"...both stupidity and bad intentions... have made Social Security a special target...even though it’s one of the [US] federal government’s cleanest, most efficient programs, and has done an immense amount to reduce poverty among the elderly.

"Musk and company see crippling the Social Security Administration as a feature, not a bug, part of their overarching plan to undermine the safety net and make America safe for profiteering."

Paul Krugman · Incompetent or Evil: A False DichotomyBy Paul Krugman

@pedrobizbikedu @somecanuckchick

Of all he possible outcomes that appears to be the least likely.

A goodly number, there is no maximum, of NDP MPs seems to be the thing to work for.

Carney is competent, but an actual partnership with people who arent billionaires is going to be necessary.

Carney knows we are not moving fast enough on climate, making sure its paid for by WEALTH is probably the Question Of The Election.

Canadians are facing the most consequential election in generations. It's not business as usual. ⬇️

'So, if you find yourself sitting with a calculator comparing the federal contenders' various tax cut promises - just stop.
If we are to meet this moment we need investment in public services, public infrastructure & 🇨🇦 national security"

Tomorrow, #Alberta Premier Danielle Smith & Ben Shapiro, editor-in-chief of Breitbart news are the keynote speakers at a $1,500 per ticket fundraiser for Prager University in Florida.

“I’m not saying Canadians should vote in American elections, God forbid. I mean, we can just annex 🇨🇦 and then call it an outlying territory or something like Puerto Rico.
Shapiro finished his comments with "Poilievre can’t win soon enough"

Winner-take-all voting has failed millions of Canadians—PR is how we fix it. With proportional representation, your vote actually counts and your voice is heard. Help us spread the message during this federal election by delivering door hangers—link in the reply! #cdnpoli #election2025

@ddmgmgh Look what's going on in #Alberta - #Poilievre's template for the entire country.

Former PM Stephen Harper - "A man diametrically opposed to the concept of defined pension benefit plans for public sector workers is now responsible for managing the investments of 375,000 Alberta pensioners."

To be clear, Poilievre's mentor built his political career campaigning against pensions.

@KimberlyN @Crispius 😒Poilievre's Conservative candidate "Dr Matt effing Strauss — fired by Queen’s University med school, anti-vax"

We have an acquaintance, early 50s, nearly died from covid - months in hospital - never returned to work.
He has a blue sign on his lawn.

I will never understand.

🚨 "Folks, the fact #Poilievre remains so smug despite many unforced errors in his campaign should alarm everyone .. it could be a misinformation blitz in the waning days, false accusers, anything.

As a former campaign operative I can tell you there is no way a 20+ year politician & Jenni Byrne are being this amateurish unconsciously. Suspecting a huge “surprise” late in the campaign to shock & give Carney's campaign little to no time to respond. Expect it"

#cdnpoli #election2025 @mikemontreal@bsky

"Conservative Leader Pierre #Poilievre is desperately trying to pivot. Desperately trying.
But the shift from nasty to nice is tough for someone who prides themselves in never changing their mind.

There may have been a time when Canadians were willing to countenance the idea of electing a prime minister whose intellectual development apparently ended when he was in university."

Those days are now over.
