@johannab There's no way in which a candidate for Parliament should ever say, even in jest, that a Canadian should be turned over to another country for a bounty. Are we concerned about foreign interference in Canadian politics or not?

Do you remember this story from 2012? cbc.ca/news/politics/jerry-ban

This is much worse. It's really hard to understand why Mr. Carney hasn't acted quickly.

CBCMan caught on camera peeing in mug no longer Conservative candidate | CBC NewsA service technician caught on hidden camera urinating into a coffee mug during a 2012 house call to repair a leaky sink before he became a Conservative election candidate is no longer running for the Oct. 19 federal vote, the Tories said today.

@gemelliz The Tyee article was a chilling read. It is easier to read about 'those' kinds of people if they are American but to be reminded, once again, that Canadians also have 'those' kinds of people reminds me that we can never rest on our laurels. #elxn45 #cdnpoli

[Jenni Byrne's] reputation is fearsome; some people were even afraid to talk or be quoted.
“I fear attribution because I fear retribution.”

If Pierre #Poilievre becomes prime minister, Jenni Byrne could easily be appointed his chief of staff, and she will certainly be one of the most powerful people in #Canada."

🇨🇦 If you had doubt that today's CPC is the face of PM Harper's Reform Party, this article will remove any doubt.

Much of Conservative leader Poilievre’s caucus is already in sync with his political style: confrontational, rigidly ideological & comfortable with conspiracy.

What is unique is the number of #Poilievre candidates who were seemingly chosen in spite, or because, of their proximity to controversy or extreme views. Disturbing stances, including ties to American vice president JD Vance, seem to offer an edge rather than barrier to being selected.

I hate strategic voting. If climate destroying, wealth transfer policies aren't what you want, why are you intending to endorse them at the ballot box? Also the amount of people who push strategic voting, but say not voting is an endorsement of the conservatives is insane. Only one of you is endorsing anti climate plutocratic policies and it isn't the non-voter.

In 4 Monday's we will be having #elxn45 in Canada!

If it were held today, according to 338canada.com, the networks would likely call it almost immediately if these projections bear out. Eastern Canada will send 151 Liberals. Only 172 seats are needed for a majority.

I still think the NDP projection is way too low, and I expect 2 Greens, but neither of those will change the overall outcome.

That said, 4 weeks is a long time!

I wonder how many #Poilievre supporters have figured out that none of his campaign promises are going to help them? People need to have surplus income to take advantage of TFSA limit increases, capital gains changes. Tax breaks - people need jobs to take advantage of them. What is PP going to do to help those that lose their jobs (eg auto workers) during this tariff war?? #elxn45 #cdnpoli
