I know it’s fall because people are openly coughing and sneezing at scale into one another’s face at the airport. 🍂

These two things are simultaneously true: 1) Carney is exactly the right person to lead Canada at this moment, and he may be on the brink of turning Canada into a powerhouse of world politics and 2) if he doesn't start to take the environment and public health seriously we're all gonna suffer.

Justin Baragona@justinbaragona.bsky.social · 4d agoNetanyahu directly attacks Zohran Mamdani (and his wife) from the UNGA podium, calling him the "antisemitic mayor of New York City," parroting The Free Press's stories about Rama Duwaji, tying Mamdani to Hasan Piker, and claiming the mayor is "buddies" with Hamas.
PM Carney: "I'd like to take this opportunity to congratulate the Leader of the Opposition on his 20th anniversary of the HOC. We will build Canada strong ... they will have an opportunity to join us, and he will have an opportunity to do something for the first time in two decades." 🔥😂
For those upset that most Canadians want stronger ties with the EU: You’re always free to strengthen your ties with the U.S. 😏 Don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya. Bye. 😂🇨🇦🇪🇺

Zelenskyy: "For first time in Russia’s history, we now hear that its oil industry is running on fumes. Our target is Russia’s ability to finance this war, to drag it out, to make it more brutal & destructive. Russia’s finances & Russia’s production are what must be stopped if Putin is to be stopped”
Shaheen: "He seemed to say Russian children have also been displaced & kidnapped, & that's just not true. It's Ukrainian children the Russians have taken back to Russia. They've taken them from their families, thousands of them. It is very clear who is violating intl law here, & it's not Ukraine."
LMFAO -- Trump is holding an event at the White House right now but there's no audio because the press pool isn't there. The Newsmax host notes that this is an example of Trump's attacks on the press "backfiring just a little bit"

Carney welcomes Norwegian PM to Ottawa to discuss Arctic security, energy
OTTAWA - Prime Minister Mark Carney is meeting with Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store in Ottawa today.

Mark Carney - a LIBERAL PM - is more popular in Alberta than Danielle Smith, by a full 9 points. He’s more popular than Pierre Poilievre. He’s more popular than anyone & everyone. And despite being the conservative heartland of the nation, Alberta resoundingly rejects Donald Trump. #cdnpoli
“We will have a series of debates, I’m sure, in Parliament, relevant committees, and ultimately there will be a vote in the Canadian Parliament for the final structure of the alliance that we’re working on," says PM Carney, discussing proposed EU associate membership. #cdnpoli
Me and my UCP have repeated the equalization lie so many times, the truth about how equalization works no longer matters. Our supporters desperately want to be victims and they want to believe only a conservative government can save them! Read: thetyee.ca/Opinion/2026... #abpoli

1. Some facts to consider amongst the swarming misinformation. (Perhaps Lewis should learn how airports currently operate?). What Carney is considering involves 4 airports that are already run by forms of PPP. Private airlines & private food services already employ most of the workers. #cdnpoli
Mark Shaw 🇨🇦✌️🇪🇺@markshawtoronto.bsky.social · 2w agoSee I just think criticism should be more... true? No one is privatizing assets that already exist, it's raising $1 trillion to build new things - mostly mining.
"The Liberal PM leaves the keys to Harper to close up when he leaves at a summit that is being criticized, ridiculed even, by the current leader of the Conservative Party. The problem for Poilievre is that it underlines that he wouldn't be in those rooms, he wouldn't be doing those things" #cdnpoli
