Last chance. If you want to have your signature on the real life letter that goes to Canada's House of Commons Speaker and others, you must tell me before 9AM PDT (about 40 minutes).

You do not have to be Canadian to sign.

Signatures received after 9AM will be on the web version.

I've made some updates to the letter including more supporting links and sources.

The Conservatives are still quoting the "great Margaret Thatcher".

I just hit send on the Open Letter to the Speaker, Clerks of the House and Senate and the Chair of the House Procedures and House Affairs Committee. (and cc'ed to other relevant Ministers, MPs and Senator)

67 signatures included! Anyone can still add one on the web version.

Thanks 🙏 for helping to push this. There may be a third (and final!) push, but it will be Canada only.
THANK YOU!

The #Fediverse will come to ParliamentI

Definition of utter insanity - Ontario will be cancelling funding of wastewater surveillance for ALL diseases - this as Covid is once again on the rise and H5N1 is lurking as a potential new pandemic

Have you heard this from the Conservatives or your annoying family member?

"In a press release, the Conservatives argued that given their proposed tax break, the average Canadian family could save $670 this summer with people in Alberta saving the most at $955 per family."

To save that much, people would have to drive 37,000 kilometres during their holidays. 37,000 kilometres!!!!!

https://www.nationalobserver.com/2024/05/28/news/PBO-carbon-price-report-Liberals - turns out the PBO fudged the numbers the CPC's been citing for how horrible the consumer carbon price is, then quietly retracted their fudged numbers over a month ago. I'm sure we'll see this reported widely any second now...

@npilon And now there has been prominent reporting: it was on the At Issue Panel this week. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncS9EqBOBis

For reference for the curious, the Parliamentary Budget Office has announced that they miscalculated the effect of the on Canadian citizens. A correction will be issued in Fall 2024.

Curious where the marketing / storytelling potential is for companies who do NOT use the various forms of AI, especially given the myriad of issues (water & resources, excuses to cut staff, further enshitification of customer service) etc etc. I bet some smart folks could really do good storytelling around this on brand recognition etc

Hi, fellow I have heard that yall are nice. you to do a nice thing and call this premier and tell him how this statement is hurtful.

onpoli he has no problem saying “this is an ongoing investigation and it is hard to comment on it” but dragging immigrants into it is easy for him?

his phone is 416-325-1941 and more ways to contact https://correspondence.premier.gov.on.ca/EN/feedback/default.aspx

many countries, including Canada, do not let convicted criminals to visit, so really wonder what happens if Trump does actually win (or take) the presidency - like will there actually be G7 summits, or 3 amigos meetings?

Ms. Elizabeth May: Madam Speaker, when we adopted by unanimous consent that we could meet until midnight, I did not put on the record, but I would like to now, that I think there should be nursing stations available for those of us who work midnight, night after night, and there should be very available places for at least quick naps to be able to continue our work. We do get elected to work. We work hard, but we should not put our lives at risk.

👏 Same for everyone else who has to work so much more because of this.

Let me stop now from the run-away American-inspired narrative that only Trudeau can save us from Poilievre. We don’t have a two party system and Trudeau is turning into an unaffordable police state. So get over that Singh is in a turban and vote for someone who actually represents your long-term interests.

And don’t tell me how PM mcDreamy is protecting my bodily autonomy while access to abortion has DECREASED not increased under his rule. It is a load of malarkey! No one serious should vote for Pierre but Justin ain’t it. And his harem Cabinet of ghouls can go with him, starting with Freeland who is a nazi.

When it comes to how we experience inflation, not all goods are created equal.

My latest for @TheHubCanada on why inflation may feel higher than the statistics suggest: https://thehub.ca/2024/05/30/trevor-tombe-the-experts-who-downplay-affordability-issues-are-wrong-youre-right-to-be-worried-about-the-pinch/ #cdnecon #cdnpoli
