I would find a wave of advancing pissed off mama bears absolutely terrifying.

Effin’ finally. Let people make mistakes and apologize for them. It’s too late to run a new candidate and voters shouldn’t be disenfranchised on principle.

He’s been looking so tired in his last few one-on-one interviews. I wouldn’t put it past him to purposely swing too far right into the conservative playbook to hose his party before they boot him.

I hope he stays on with an apology. People are allowed to make mistakes. Especially on the right, so turnabout is fair play.

I didn’t except to see a Mastodon icon. Honestly I kind of hope our little social corner remains low key for as long as possible.

 

Just figured it’s worth a mention. It still has FB and IG but it’s nice to see some distance between the worst offender.

I haven’t received any flyers from other parties yet. This is the first time I’ve seen a Bluesky icon in print from any source so it’s kind of novel.

I’d play the delay card as much as I could, too. Every week we hold off even bigger tariffs is another week to get more trading partners on board.

Let’s see how Carney recounts it before celebrating.

“I don’t know why everybody thinks I’m a cow” says the person standing in a field with cows and loudly chewing grass.

Getting security clearance should not be a partisan issue. Intelligence agencies have reported credible foreign interference going back years and all but one party leader has the ability to act on that knowledge.

I got to meet him in Vegas. He was really nice to a nervous nerd. Now I’m even more impressed he has the courage to change his beliefs in public.

To say a sitting MP is not a member of government is semantics at best. If you can vote in Parliament on government policy you are exerting your opinion on government policy, even if your interpretation differentiates between Parliament and Goverment.

The Liberal Party isn’t the one supplying him with secret information. On issues of concern CSIS (and assuming others) supply it to all parties and individuals with clearance regardless of who’s in power. And in election time this is even more important so a party leader can know which of his ranks are being propped up by foreign governments in exchange for influence.

The hypothetical excuse of being muzzled from sharing secret information is flimsy. Let’s hear all about the earth-shattering privileged information PP has managed to dig up on his own that he’s shared with the public in the interest of democracy. Pffft.

That’s collaboration.

I hear your worry but I really don’t think he has the stones. For all the bluster he has only enabled other countries to do the dirty work. It’s a lot less risky for him to pick on Ukraine or Greenland by threatening to take away money than it is to put US boots on the ground somewhere.

He’s loud and offensive but also very fragile and cowardly. He spins it but he’s backed down every single time.

 

Silly answers only. We need a laugh or two in spite of another day of stupid news.
