One in four Canadians live in poverty, new report says calgaryherald.com/news/one-in-fo…
Poilievre is lying. Trudeau doesn’t tax food or groceries. Not even the carbon tax. Unless it’s prepared food. The carbon tax on gas is minuscule. Poilievre says here that people are living in poverty. And that’s after he voted against a national food program for kids. Asshole.
Why is the debate about the capital gains inclusion rate so deranged? Because associations of very rich people have paid think tanks and foundation to operate a constant non-stop misinformation campaign about tax policy for 50+ years aimed at lowering their own tax rates. (1/3)
A sad day in Calgary. Calgary's first municipal political party has been established @yyc flip.it/JNA2Sd
Poilievre supported the occupation of Ottawa. He supported Modi, India’s PM, instead of Trudeau when a Canadian was murdered in Surrey, B.C. He voted against the Canada/Ukraine free trade agreement & the Federal Food School Program. Is this who Canadians really want to be our PM.
Step away from the political commentary and just take a moment to breathe this in @yyc
BREAKING: A Chicago teen by the name of Dorothy Jean Tillman just became youngest person to earn doctoral degree at the age of 17. - She took her first college course at age 10. - By age 14, Dorothy Jean Tillman had obtained an associate's, bachelor's and master's degree.
This is hilarious. Better than @AndrewScheer shaking hands with a voter from across a hedge. 🤷🏼🤭🤷🏼

Poilievre’s refusal to undergo a national security clearance background check is not going away especially in light of the recent NSICOP report alleging foreign interference in the 2022 Conservative leadership race. He Is the only leader who hasn’t applied for the clearance. Why?
50 years of tax cuts for the rich failed to trickle down, economics study says - CBS News @acoyne @DonBraid cbsnews.com/news/tax-cuts-…
Don't be misinformed about the new #CapitalGains tax; only 0.13% of us are affected. Learn about the "disingenuous myths being propagated" by the #Cons & the wealthy. #NeverVoteConservative #cdnpoli thestar.com/business/opini…

Blaming Gondek, Nenshi, Trudeau or Notley for our water main break? It's actually thanks to Mayor Rod Sykes and city council in 1975 for cheaping out. piperepair.co.uk/2021/06/13/the…
Remember #CalgaryStrong, how Calgarians came together in the face of adversity during the flood of 2013? Rick Bell is the extreme opposite of that, rage farming daily for the @calgaryherald. A slimeball & a pathetic little man. #yyc #yyccc

Harassers and abusers are ramping up their toxic attacks against progressive women in politics. Significantly, many of the harassers are in positions of power, like police & media. “As long as the system lets them get away with it, they will keep winning.” thetyee.ca/Opinion/2024/0…
