President Trump is calling today Liberation Day. But his tariffs won't liberate anyone—they'll hurt American workers, American families, and the American economy.

Until his threats are off the table, we will be united and stand strong to protect Ontario.

The biggest threat to Canadian unity? First-past-the-post.

When millions are shut out, it breeds division and undermines our democracy.

Demand proportional representation!

This is why New Democrats fight—for people like Michael and Riley.

I’ve been told to give up. That’s not who I am, and it’s not who we are.

If our movement can make a difference for families like Michael’s, it’s worth it.

Thank you, Michael and Riley, for reminding us why progressive voices matter.

It's never going to happen.

Donald Trump is scheming with American health care CEOs to replace our public health care with U.S.-style for-profit care. They don't know what's coming to them.

Today is International Fact-Checking Day ✔️

Independent fact-checking is more important than ever.

Before you share:

✅ Is it from a reliable source?

🔍 Can it be verified elsewhere?

📢 Is it informing or manipulating?

First-past-the-post gave us Trump.

Proportional representation gave us the world’s top 10 democracies.

It’s time to get on the right side of history. Demand PR.

What a beautiful moment.

A hotel worker in Hamilton heard we were going to be in town, so he showed up to work in his orange tie.

Big bosses, billionaires and CEOs have Liberals and Conservatives — but I promise you, New Democrats will always have your back.

All Canadians deserve access to medication.

Pharmacare, driven by the NDP, delivers that—while easing the strain on hospitals and saving the health care system money in the long run.

It's disappointing that Carney and the Liberals won’t commit to expanding it.

[Charlie Angus]'s right here. In Canada, our corporate-led media is incredibly sensitive to manipulation.

You want to see a stronger, and respectful democracy?

Support [independent] and non-profit journalism.

@ctvyourmorning.bsky.social should air it with an apology.

If you are worried about disinformation and media manipulation in this election give a pass to @ctvyourmorning.bsky.social

They caved to pressure from Pierre [Poilievre]'s online posse in their continual harassment of @rachelgilmore.bsky.social

She is a truth teller.

CTV is not.

The Green Party will participate in two federal leaders' debates this month after meeting the minimum requirements to attend, organizers said Tuesday.

The Leaders' Debates Commission said the party met two of the three required criteria to have its leader invited to both the French debate on April 16 and the English debate April 17.

Both debates will take place at 7 p.m. in Montreal.

It hadn't been certain whether the Greens would qualify, because the threshold to attend was higher this year than in 2021. Back then, parties only had to meet one of three criteria.

This year, it was two of the following three:

• The leader's party had to be represented in the House of Commons by at least one MP before dissolution.
• The leader's party must be polling at least four per cent 28 days before voting day, based on the most recent results of "leading national public opinion polling organizations."
• The party must have candidates nominated in at least 90 per cent of federal ridings across Canada, also 28 days before the federal election.

The Greens made the cut for the first and third criteria. The party has two co-leaders: Jonathan Pedneault and Elizabeth May, but it is Pedneault taking on "singular leadership roles" when required during the campaign.

Solidarity forever!

Thank you CUPE, for your voices and support in this fight.

It's us against the billionaires and the big bosses and it's a privilege to have the support of Canada's largest union.

With New Democrats, working people win. ✊🏽

In the wake of ongoing tariffs imposed by the Trump Administration, Canadians are looking for local alternatives to American products. For folks hoping to purchase the favour of a government official, we’ve assembled a list of some of the finest cowards, puppets, and shills that Canada has to offer.

Danielle Smith

For the low, low, price of 10,000 elk killed in an open-pit mine, folks with coal money can purchase a Premier who is as morally corrupt as her American counterparts – yet retains that uniquely Canadian ability to suffocate pristine landscape under a sea of bitumen like it’s the future of a healthcare employee. Plus, every purchase of Danielle Smith comes with a free Kevin O’Leary, who is only one set of dogshit hair plugs away from going Full Musk.

Doug Ford

While the best buy for condo developers, this late model Ford is still a worthy purchase as long as you can get a family discount. Plus he comes with a bunch of neat hats which makes him look very cool and not at all like a giant loser who everyone talks shit about the second you leave the room, Doug.

Justin Trudeau

If ethics aren’t your thing, this gently used PM-turned-MP is all yours for a little light bribery – plus, he comes in a variety of colours!

Pierre Poilievre

Don’t let your dream of owning a potato-faced dork be limited to members of the GOP! With the charm of a hemorrhoid and the charisma of a bowl of cold chowder smeared across a Circle K bathroom, Poilievre is an effective multi-tool capable of capitulating to big business all while knee-capping affordable housing. He is currently in the process of blowing a slam-dunk election, however, so be sure to snatch him up before he’s gone!

"In a surprise announcement today, Liberal leader Mark Carney has committed to implementing proportional representation within the first 100 days of forming government after the April 28th election.

'We have heard Canadians loud and clear,' Carney stated during a campaign stop in Winnipeg. 'The time for electoral reform is now, and we are fully committed to ensuring every vote counts.'

The Liberal plan would introduce a Mixed Member Proportional system similar to New Zealand's, with the legislation to be drafted immediately after the election.

'This isn't just a promise,' Carney added. 'We've already prepared the draft legislation and have secured cross-party support.'

When asked about the party's previous broken promise on electoral reform in 2015, Carney displayed a calendar prominently showing today's date — April 1st, 2025.

'April Fools!' the Liberal leader laughed. 'We've been making this same promise since Mackenzie King in 1919. Did you really think we'd follow through this time?'

Carney then unveiled the party's actual platform: 'Making Every Vote Count*'

*Fine print: Terms and conditions apply. Promise valid only until election day. Not available in provinces where electoral reform is desired."
