“So to leadership candidates, my best piece of advice? Win,” Kinew said to cheers from the crowd at the RBC Convention Centre. “It’s way better than the alternative.”

Generally avoid posting idiotic things this guy says, but as most people know as offensive as this guy is he's been sure not to offend anyone powerful and it seems like he's finally picked a side. Hopefully this will the straw that break the camel back for the Conservatives.

The Conservative leader called for a ban on Chinese software, matching the US.

“We will protect the North American supply chains by keeping the 75% rule in place, harmonise the North American cybersecurity rules by banning Chinese software, and align with our partners on the tariff against China to counter unfair trade and increase our negotiating leverage,” he stated.

Do want to point out there was a post about how poor of a journalist this guy is and his crap show on Global News. Then subsequently it seems like there has been a giant uptick of Global News posts many which are either just very superficial article or just straight up wire feed repost.

For a country whom just had their Attorney General justify the president being a pedophile because the Dow is up slightly you'd think they'd be appluading Eileen for getting paid.

Just to provide context that the narrative Trump conveys is fake as usual and extremely hypocritical. America by sheer numbers trades more with China but even by percentage:

He's a piece of shit.

But also to signal that he's on a specific side. People would call these dog whistles but I think it's bit to overt for that.

I can't believe we pay for people to post this stuff.

The article is relatively short and has tons of stuff, highly recommend people read through it.

British Columbia legislator Dallas Brodie, whose OneBC party has removed her as leader, says the split happened after colleagues tried to stop her from firing a caucus staffer whose views on Jewish people were "disgusting" and antisemitic.

Brodie said she wanted the man removed because she is not a "neo-Nazi," and it was "obscene" to think that the man's views could be in the party.

......

Thielmann says in a social media post on Monday that he and Ratchford advised Brodie against firing the staffer, who he calls "a 22-year-old brown kid who was being made out to be a 'white supremacist'" and they instead wanted to "mentor" him.

.......

Brodie said she had clashed with the young staffer over a message he wanted to post under her name on social media platform X.

"I think it said the NDP or somebody is anti-civilizational, and that they want the province to be run on drum circles and powwows," she said.

This was the lady that was too nutty for the BC Conservatives and got removed 9 months ago to form her own party to get seemingly removed today from her own party.

It's unbelievable how little we've done to regulate social media and allowed it to damage society.

What a idiot.

Chief executive officer of GameStop, Ryan Cohen, announced back in February that he was looking to sell the Canadian division of the company, telling interested parties to email GameStop's mergers and acquisitions division, saying "High taxes, Liberalism, Socialism, Progressivism, Wokeness and DEI included at no additional cost if you buy today!"

That's actually something interesting.

I'm a little conflicted because Maxime is a real piece of shit but Pierre losing twice would be kinda amazing. This is pretty much the only way Pierre has any significant potential of losing the by-election.

Completely insane and as usual what Conservatives have to say about Conservatives is more damning than anything.

When fraud occurs on Shopify and you use them as a merchant your lose your time, inventory and shipping cost. While they still charge you the transaction fee on top of a fraud claim fee.

This is the company CEO that is defending Trump while criticizing Canada. The COO runs True North the media outlet that makes Postmedia look almost sane.
