A tribute to fossil fuels. (Thread) The thermometer showed -38C here this morning (-47 with wind chill). At 6 am, the furnace warmed the house to 20C. It does this every morning thanks to the natural gas that is piped into my house and burned in that miracle appliance 1/x

Not AI. Not The Walking Dead. It’s Vancouver. This is someone’s son. There’s nothing compassionate about allowing this to happen in our country. It’s heartbreaking.

You don't build sovereignty by giving it away. Anand says partnering with the EU builds Canada's sovereignty. That's backwards. Sovereignty means Canadians decide for Canadians — not Brussels, not an unelected Commission, not a deal nobody ever voted on. They keep saying the word because they know it's the thing they're taking from. They use the word for exactly that reason. "Sovereignty" is the thing Canadians actually want, so they dress the opposite policy in that word. Call it sovereignty enough times and people stop asking what was actually signed away. It's language as cover if. You name the policy after the value you're gutting, the theft sounds like a gift.
Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand on the Canada-EU deal: "We are building Canada's sovereignty, and the way in which we do that is to partner with stable and trusted partners, and the EU is at the very top of that list."

He was head of the company when an insider stole the information of nearly 3 million customers and nearly 200,000 businesses. The had to pay out nearly $80 million to settle lawsuits. cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/…
As former President and CEO of Desjardins, Guy Cormier brings exceptional economic and social leadership. He’s ready to build a stronger future for Laurier—Sainte-Marie, Québec, and Canada, with Mark Carney and our Liberal team.

It was an elderly driver with diabetes who suffered a medical emergency. Everyone agrees it was a tragedy. It’s not clear what the investigation is supposed to uncover.

As of this week, if I take a shower for longer than 3 minutes in Calgary, I face a minimum fine of $3,000. This is called public sector failure and yet the public sector isn’t the one that’s punished.

This happens because there's never pushback from the other side. Sane people who like Harry Potter are generally too busy and happy to make a fuss ... so miserable shut-ins with unlimited time dominate the discourse.
Canada (specifically the province of British Columbia) is so ridiculous that the Town of Gibsons apologized "to those who felt hurt" by their Harry Potter-themed Halloween decor that included a Whomping Willow, Quidditch hoops, and Aragog the giant spider 😐 @jk_rowling

Mark Carney gave Danielle Smith a pipeline promise in October. In November, she got the lawsuits. Ten of them. Ottawa's "fast track" looks an awful lot like the old slow track. Canada is broken.

This is outrageous. Ottawa does not own ‘our’ CPP or its assets; so how can they include it to make our debt look smaller? If you lied about your cash flow when applying for a mortgage you’d get charged with mortgage fraud. This is not Ottawas piggy bank to play with. Shysters.
🚨🚨The Liberals are doing something very dangerous with Canada's finances. They are taking the NATIONAL DEBT and subtracting the PENSION SAVINGS of Canadians to make our debt look smaller. That's almost a trillion dollars in pension assets! And they're using that smaller number to justify borrowing $733 billion more. And when Canadians ask if this is responsible, the government points to our pension savings. But here's my question: Can the government use Canadians' pension money to pay off its debt? If the answer is yes, Canadians deserve to know. And if the answer is no, then stop using our pension savings to make the debt look smaller! #cdnpoli

Trying to join the EU is like becoming Elizabeth Taylor's seventh husband. It's an obviously doomed venture, but you can brag about it to people who haven't read a newspaper in 25 years.

Congrats Canada we have hit the 2% NATO requirement on paper by including base landscaping funding, capital expenditures that should be amortized over a decade or more, in a single year & now counting the Coast Guard in DND’s budget, but keeping a dual chain of command & have absolutely no military capability or integration. The Grand Illusion is action!!
.@CoastGuardCAN confirms it reclassified all 7,378 of its employees including 6-figure executives as national defenders to help cabinet meet @NATO spending targets. Staff were @FishOceansCAN until 2025. blacklocks.ca/all-7378-are-n… @NationalDefence @DavidMcGuinty #cdnpoli

More announcements of "deepening relationships" in a more divided and dangerous world. Maybe more access to consumer markets or an agreement to talk about a future trade agreement? Carney is a fraud.

CATOSTOPHIC FOR LIBERALS CBC just Fact Checked Mark Carney Election Promise Build Canada Homes. Only 2,000 Homes have started in 18 Months. Mark Carney Promised 500,000 new homes per year. Imagine FAILING this Much and now selling EU as our Savior. WE ARE SO COOKED

Allowing the concept of gender identity into our education system in the mid-2010s was a catastrophic safeguarding failure. To be sure, back then no one could have understood the madness occurring in the field of gender medicine nor the reckless experiment of transing kids that was just ramping up. But that doesn't excuse the fact that schools allowed a totally incoherent, nonsensical concept to be taught to children as if it's scientific fact. It doesn't excuse the lack of curiosity. The lack of common sense. Why didn't anyone stop to question what would happen if we taught impressionable kids that they each possess a gender soul and it is that which makes them boys or girls? Why couldn't anyone see the obvious harm of untethering kids from reality during a crucial stage of identity development? It was inexcusable then. But what's even worse is that today, in 2026, there are still legions of people defending SOGI in our schools, refusing to face the catastrophic mistake that has caused so much harm. Watch Episode 3 of @genspect's REPATH series that explains the decade of this devastating perfect storm in all its madness.

Who could have predicted that connecting everything to the internet would have massively increased the attack surface of a society in inconceivable ways?
BREAKING: This morning’s cyberattack against supermarket fridges and freezers has now spread to Belgium, Sweden, Luxembourg and Estonia. The hackers increased the temperature up to 50C. Food worth millions of euros has been spoiled. Experts warn that such cyberattacks on supply chains and logistics can constitute a threat to national food security in many Western states.

The ability to look CDN’s straight in the eyes & lie by omission is truly a skill that must be mastered to become a @liberal_party gov Minister. In the first 9 months of 2026, Canada has LOST a net of 41,200 jobs. In the first 9 months of 2026, the US has GAINED a net of 728,000 jobs.
Champagne: "We have created almost twice as many jobs per capita as the United States."

Failed Windsor city councillor candidate & radical Islamist Rasha Zaid was pictured alongside @NDP leader @avilewis. Do you think he is going to enforce her call to jail all Zionists aka those who believe Israel has a right to exist? 🤔
Rasha Zaid is a Windsor based Aesthetician & leader of Windsor4Palestine who is using her skillset to run for @CityWindsorON Councillor in Ward 4, which is currently held by @markmckenzie519 A weekly protestor in Windsor for almost 3 years, Rasha Zaid has called for anyone that identifies as a Zionist, one who believes that Israel has a right to exist, “must be locked up” and that “we are not free until they are not amongst us.” Rasha Zaid accuses Israelis, including professors, doctors, and other professionals of being “serial killers on the loose” and that “they must be held accountable.” Rasha Zaid will also let out the occasional “Allahu Akhbar” and “All The Zionist Are Racist” chants at her protests. According to posts online Rasha Zaid believes “there is no such thing as antisemitic” and that Israelis wearing “Jude” stars as seen in the Holocaust stage their own attacks to get sympathy from the world. Given the recent announcement of doctors leaving Canada due to growing safety concerns of Jews, you can find no better example of those creating this environment than Rasha Zaid, who may be in a position of power to make it much worse if she wins her city councilor seat in Windsor Ward 4 come this October. Further, she will be travelling to Toronto this Sunday to the Walk With Israel for the sole purpose of harassing the families attending with their children as they walk through a gauntlet of terrorist supporters while being yelled at. Predictably Rasha Zaid has been platformed heavily by @CTVWindsor @CBCWindsor without actually looking into her digital footprint to see what her radical rhetoric is. This is a Notice of Public Interest to the Israeli community of Windsor regarding this radical who is applying for a position of power that holds extreme prejudice towards their minority. All materials provided were obtained via publicly available sources & does not contain any forms of private media. @drewdilkens

Any guesses on how much that inflight meal 🍽️ will be? 140K? 150K? 175K? NEW RECORD??
Mark Carney is heading to Antigua and Barbuda on Monday, where he will engage with heads of government from other Commonwealth countries — and with King Charles III. Much of the meetings taking place this week will focus on investment and trade says the PMO.

Minister of Finance: “Every dollar we [will] borrow [will only go] to capital investment.” Truth #1: Every dollar collected in GST is now needed to pay interest on existing national debt and cannot be spent on services Canadians value. Truth #2: The Liberal government invented a new, broader definition of capital investment. According to the Parliamentary Budget Officer, this allows the government to count approximately $94 billion more as capital investment over six years. Truth #3: Calling spending an investment doesn't make it one and doesn't guarantee a return for Canadians. And borrowing more while interest costs keep rising buries my generation under a mountain of Liberal debt.
