The best part of this is that aside from every other best part of you at the bottom you see there might easily have been video of waltz verifying his pin which is amazing

You asked, I listened As an act of civic journalism, I contacted the Privy Council Office and the Speaker of the House of Commons to clarify if Pierre Poilievre can still serve as Leader of the Opposition and if he can continue living in his public mansion The official answers: No and no

Pierre Poilievre no longer entitled to live at public mansion: Privy Council Office Poilievre ineligible to live at Stornoway after losing his own seat

Here's some advice from the guy who has never had a job in the real world. Now about that 19-room taxpayer funded mansion you live in Pierre.... #evictthesquatter

To know that our Country’s relationship has changed because of a fascist felon is heartbreaking. I only hope that Prime Minister Carney and the people of Canada know that America loves and values your Country! 🇨🇦Congratulations, Canada, You voted for a great leader 🇨🇦

I really wish we had a leader as strong and caring for his nation as Mark Carney. So happy for Canada. Take no shit from Trump.

Congratulations to all Canadians 🇨🇦 Mark, why don't you build a wall and make America pay for it. 😁👍

Who is going to report it first? Pierre Poilievre got a shit kicking inn Canada because Canadians are not stupid. #cdnpoli P.S. Women voters found him particularly distasteful because they also are not stupid. Nor are they #StepfordWives

I love you my Canadian brothers and sisters. Thank you for showing up. You give us decent Americans hope.

😁 😁 😁 😁 😁

@carterab.bsky.social so.. what's the score for your boy? Ready to make a prediction? Were advance votes counted early or still to be counted? The 64,000 dollar question tonight. For ALL ridings, apparently. Arghhhh!! Rosie Barton said THAT needs to be 'solidified' by Elections Canada for next time

@thestrategists.ca well? Did he win??

Dear Canada- Please accept our deepest apologies from all decent Americans embarrassed by the obnoxious trolling from our man-baby-in-chief who is lacking in both intelligence & any impulse-control whatsoever. ❤️ from your neighbors below, 🇺🇸 #MakeAmericaNormalAgain

I just heard about an Ontario couple who has been crossing the border at Buffalo for decades. The last time, CBP asked how they feel about the Trump admin. The wife made a joke about being glad he’s not their president. They are now both banned from coming into the US for three years.

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes. We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

Election day in a country that has had a fair and free vote for generations. Where all the opposition parties are free to take power. Where virtually everyone will accept the election result. After my last year, it’s a history and a privilege I’m more grateful for than ever. Let’s get at it.

Just a couple of Alberta boys, trying to get to Ottawa to do some good.

Son found this on beach on Hornby Island today. It belonged to original natives of Turtle Island and could be as old as 10,000 years

They haven’t changed. They’ve just been quiet.

WELKER: Does the US still want to make Canada the 51st state? MARCO RUBIO: I think the president has stated repeatedly he thinks Canada would be better off as a state

There's never been an event like this in Vancouver's history, so hard to say what "typical" is. In general, Canadian police release information about an ongoing situation much more slowly than American counterparts, for all sorts of procedural and cultural reasons. bsky.app/profile/elle...

Is this a typical amount of information to be released at this stage?

NEW: Vancouver Police say a 30-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the mass casualty incident tonight at the Lapu Lapu Day block party near E43/Fraser. To speak with media shortly. Still no confirmation on fatalities and injuries - hearing range of numbers.

Our immediate story on the tragedy. Multiple people confirmed dead and one person in custody. We’ll have more information as we verify information through the night. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
