OK - lot's of news today. Carney likely to call the election next week, e-day possibly May 12th

Aggregate polls put LPC 8 points ahead, Carney net favourable 12+ points over PP, 20+ on handling Trump

CPC saying no media on campaign bus or plane, no pool cameras, strict access to events (they don't want hard questions, on the defensive)

Buckle up, it will be a ride folks!!

Confirming the con collapse trend first revealed by Ekos, then by Angus Reid yesterday, and today by Ipsos

IMO this isn't just a Carney bump, it's a fundamental shift on how Canadians are viewing the CPC, the Poilievre brand is tanking

Frank Graves at Ekos was largely derided, called an outlier for predicting a CPC collapse, LPC heading into majority territory weeks ago

Now Angus Reid has confirmed the trend, CPC continue to decline, NDP collapsing with the Carney effect and Trump's continuing threats fueling the Liberal surge

OMG this is so powerful

Any US Trumpists thinking they can take Canada, bullet right in the forehead fuckers

I dare you, try it

Supreme Court of Canada has left Twitter, good, now the rest of government, at all levels, should do the same

Well, fuck - Quebec considering limiting family doctors only for those seriously ill, basically we called it saying Covid would collapse Canada's health system

Primary care is vital, without it literally every other level quickly folds into critical care only, and that will be heavily triaged

Health collapses, then everything else from education to the justice system

The future of care is for the wealthy only

If you need a reason not to vote for PP and the entire Con list of shit candidates, look no further than their leader Poilievre refusing a security clearance since he took oppo leadership - he is a member of the Privy Council, and staff have to deny him documents and comms

That's not leadership, that's ghosts in the closet, and basically admitting he's compromised

Good!! Quebec court rejects injunction call brought by 2 students to end the McGill #Gaza protests

Police are also not acting on the university request to move in and clear the encampment

UBC encampment growing

The pandemic must for sure be over now that tax exemptions for masks and PPE have been repealed...

'The provincial finance ministry says in its news release that the Quebec Sales Tax (QST) system will also be modified to align with the federal measure by abolishing the temporary exemption for medical and non-medical masks and face shields'

The Quebec Health minister looked a tad freaked today announcing 10 confirmed cases of measles in the province with at least 3 determined to be community spread

1 case of measles can exponentially spread, R012-15, to 216 cases within 12 days - with each new case compounding

Quebec MMR immunization is 80% - far below the 95% considered necessary for community protection

Clusterfuck with Covid

1 confirmed measles case in BC
