And all this is not anti-business. It's one way to bring back competition and break up monopolies.
When the system is rigged for the rich while the 99% struggle to afford the basics, public ownership is how we take back the economy.

Saskatchewan was the home of Canadaβs first democratic socialist government, led by the great Tommy Douglas. It was the first province to achieve public healthcare, and the catalyst for our universal system that Canadians hold dear. I'm excited to kick off our Saskatchewan tour next week. Join us!

Whether itβs Carney in Ottawa or Danielle Smith in Alberta, anti-worker politicians are embracing authoritarianism instead of addressing the every day struggles of workers. Through my #BillC247, weβre going to give power back to workers and uphold the right to strike.
Through the Liberalsβ repeated use of Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code, they are violating the Charter-protected right to strike and attacking workersβ ability to fight for a liveable wage.
They love DEAD socialists. They never ask awkward questions.
Seeing the universal and well-earned outpouring of love for Stephen Lewis from media and political figures to the outright smearing of his son NDP leader Avi Lewis, who is carrying on the same fight for human rights and climate as his father, is a little jarring.
Holy shit, Bruce. You had me at "I'm going to defeat PP in his home riding". That was enough. But now you're going to actually follow your conscience & promote sensible policies that help Canadians? I'm just having a lot of feelings right now...
Liberal MP Bruce Fanjoy from the Ottawa-area riding or Carleton is breaking ranks with the Carney government on its Return to Office policy for public servants: βThere is little to no evidence that a one-size-fits-all RTO policy will improve productivity or service to Canadiansβ
Heartbreaking and enraging. Either the federal government steps up with an actual systemic solution β including public or worker ownership β or weβll be reading these headlines and watching communities gutted for years to come. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Thomas Jefferson was 44 when he began what many in 2025 STILL consider a romantic tryst or loving affair with Sally Hemings. Ms. Hemings had no legal capacity to consent to such a relationship not only because she was enslaved, Jefferson's property, BUT ALSO BECAUSE SHE WAS 14-YEARS-OLD. /1

Our markets are open to the tune of purchasing $349 billion in goods from the U.S. in 2024. That's $8,400 per capita based on our population of 41.5 million. We exported close to $413 billion in goods to the U.S. That's a per capita rate of roughly $1,180 per American. Proportionately, we buy more!
I'm not sure why they think a country with a 10th of the US population will somehow save their country from their bad business decisions.
I prefer my butter without added faeces, thanks.
Nutlick can go to hell! Canadians are not interested in US products of any kind. We donβt take orders from the US. Howβs that message about the US not needing anything from Canada π¨π¦ working out for you Nutlick?
When I lived in the US, I could not stand the taste of their milk or butter. Bland and watery would be a good way to describe it. I donβt know a Canadian alive that would buy that crap over our own even if you didnβt despise the Trump regime.
U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick was on Face The Nation spouting off about Canada needing to "open our markets"... The sheer arrogant ignorance of assuming that Canadians would buy US crap if only markets were "open"... Howard, the cow will die long before I'll buy that butter... π€£ ππβ
Howard Nutlick reminds me of that creepy old man with the get rich quick scheme

security clearance. This was a big deal to Canadians during the last election, and he has done nothing to get his clearance so it isn't still a sore spot for Canadians. Dear friends in Battle River-Crowfoot, he just wants your vote. And then he's gone. He will go back to being paid to disrupt ...
independent candidate. If voting for any other party gives you sleepless nights, how about voting for an independent who knows you, your community, your values, your goals as Albertans, and will represent you well in Ottawa. Poilievre won't. He'll be gone as soon as the election is over.
and cause chaos every single day in our House of Commons. He doesn't work for Canadians. He didn't work for Carleton. He won't work for #BattleRiver-Crowfoot. Can he even name a single street in your town? Does he know any of you by name? You know who does? @bonniecritchley.bsky.social and she' an..
