Can someone please remind James Moore that crime went up after Harper increased penalties? #pnpcbc
Boy. I picked a bad day to be busy. Con MPs are totally losing it today. #cdnpoli
The presumptive next PM is reminding us that all our legal rights will be subject to his whim. Presumption of innocence? NWC. Freedom from unreasonable search and seizure? NWC. Right to a trial in a reasonable time? NWC. Right against self-crimination? NWC. All on the table.

Adam, if you and the "six addiction physicians" who collaborated with you so convinced of your analysis, why not submit it for peer-review with @bmj_latest, rather than posting it on a niche blog?

A striking graphic from the Ekos poll released today. CPC voters have, by far, the greatest tendency to believe and trust misinformation. @VoiceOfFranky
The UCP's explanation: They know people don't want these changes, and that's why they're only doing it to the cities that elected a lot of NDP MLAs.

When I was in my 20s, I did the “backpack around Europe” thing. Met hundreds of people who were living and working abroad. Trudeau was super influential even as a boy I guess. #cdnpoli

How much “common sense” do you need to camp out in trailers and whine about things you don’t like instead of actually working and contributing to the world? Is that what we can expect? #cdnpoli

To @CPC_HQ Bring back the Zamboni. Clean up the leader. Hard to maintain that PM in waiting thing, when you look like a hung over Diagolon groupie.
Haha, joke’s on you, Andrew, that’s a graph of child poverty rates in Canada.

This is a trend of news reporting I could do without..... The impulse to create digital click-bait with stories of 'problems' that aren't really problems, the 'poor me' rich guy stories, the half-wit traveller, the harried shopper who has too many bags......enough already.
Man from Tweed, Ont. selling home due to wife's passing set to face higher capital gains tax ottawa.ctvnews.ca/man-from-tweed…
@GailSmithlegal Especially when they are so entitled they have zero clue about how privileged they are.
@Scorpio_Karen18 @LoyalCanadian4u @ctvottawa The capital gains tax does NOT apply to the primary residence.
Poilievre gets kicked for thumbing his nose at authority in the commons. If your reaction is “Trudeau is bad too,” maybe you need to do a gut check?
If Pierre Poilievre doesn't want to be portrayed as an authoritarian leader, maybe he should stop talking like one thestar.com/politics/if-pi… via @TorontoStar
If your take from today was both sides are bad you are part of the problem.
Poilievre spends all day calling people names, disparaging the press, and drumming up outrage. But please, tell me how Fergus was just too hard on him.
You know who #Poilievre models his behaviour and imbecilic language after? Trump. #wacko #whacko
Pretending it’s a both sides issue is the problem.
@corkencor Populism is a problem from both sides. Protectionism and entitlement especially cuts both ways. I have tweeted what I meant. Decency, decorum and humility are almost 100% absent from all sides. I have one vote and it's only good on one day, e-day. Until then I will simply say…
The idea that the questions are asked with any kind of sincere intent is wild.
@ABeducator @mileslunn @prairiecentrist Having actually attended QP, the Liberals inability to answer questions posed to them has been the majority of nonsense. I won’t say sole because that’s just a flatly partisan bias outlook.
So Pierre yells "wacko" in QP and a few minutes later social media is flooded with graphics of "Trudeau is a wacko" by the CPC. 100% theatre.
Wow. The clip just played of Poilievre was unbelievable, or it should be. I do hope the whole segment is on YouTube later. It's frightening. #PnPCBC
The chair is in charge. Glad I could help.
Neither man showed much judgement here, IMO. Poilievre shouldn’t have called the PM “wacko,” and should have simply withdrawn the term when asked. But Speaker should have taken up his offer to replace it with less unparliamentary language.
There is no universe where the Conservative under Poilievre should be this popular. If something is broken in Canada, it's the body politic.
I think we again have to acknowledge that most of the bots are on one side of the political discussion.
@GailSmithlegal YES.....that case in Toronto should be WARNING. The volume of people (pierre included) and their mumbled apologies for playing politics with this case, not to mention the depravity of police lying on the stand should be a big red flag
"I will be the democratically elected PM, accountable to the people & they can make the judgments themselves on whether they think my laws are constitutional" Isn't the idea of a constitution that it's better to have one than just go w public opinion? cbc.ca/news/politics/…
@GillianKolla @bmj_latest Great question! I’d wager it’s cause he’s a liar and even his editors know it. He can’t even get past National Post editors; he’d never make it through peer review! themainlander.com/2024/03/23/ada…
Adam, if you and the "six addiction physicians" who collaborated with you so convinced of your analysis, why not submit it for peer-review with @bmj_latest, rather than posting it on a niche blog?
Nice try, Gillian, but the underlying data from that study actually showed that safer supply has a statistically insignificant impact on mortality. Unfortunately, the study authors, whose research ethics are as good as yours, cherry-picked their data to dramatically inflate…
