1/ THREE new by-elections were just announced for North Vancouver—Capilano, Beaches—East York, and Chicoutimi—Le Fjord. That means we're going to be busy organizing, and we need your help.

Nearly 400 people attended our Disability Tax Credit workshops across the riding—a clear sign the federal system is too hard to navigate. Thanks to our hosts, my team and Alex Hunter. Watch Alex's presentation on my July 25 Facebook post.

1/ This summer, wildfires are raging, communities are being evacuated and people are losing their homes. Mark Carney's response? Cut the jobs that protect Canadians.

1/ The climate emergency is at our doorstep. Cities are choked in smoke, families are being displaced and entire communities are burning. Canadians deserve a plan that tackles the climate crisis head-on. That's what the Green New Deal is about.

Uncontrolled AI is a threat to our jobs, our environment, and our communities. Canadians across the political divide know this, and that’s why they’re fighting back. The public must assert its role in the technologies shaping our lives, and draw hard lines where AI causes nothing but harm.

Major and concerning development from the chaos of the AI arms race. 🧵 Last week, an AI company called Hugging Face was subject to a completely new kind of cyberattack. For the first time, an AI agent has executed an autonomous attack on another system. www.axios.com/2026/07/21/o...

Hugging Face breach: OpenAI claims its models were responsible

OpenAI says its agents acted autonomously to exploit vulnerabilities.

The announcement of 50% tariffs on a range of Canadian goods is the latest economic grenade thrown over the border by an out of control President who has lost touch with reality. /1

1/ Nearly 1000 wildfires are burning across Canada right now. Entire communities have been lost, and the impacts of the climate crisis are being felt coast to coast. Canada is warming at nearly twice the global average. And after decades of Liberal inaction, Canadians are the ones paying the price.

1/ We're building a party rooted in justice, solidarity, and the belief that we can create a better future together. Our Equity Commissions play a key role in bringing together communities and leaders to shape policy, and actually strengthen representation.

1/ Congratulations to Nima Machouf and Pierre Céré who were nominated last night as our candidates in the federal ridings of Laurier–Sainte-Marie and in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie!

1/ Trump is fuelling a new McCarthyism that is both delusional and dangerous. It’s clearly intended to crack down on Americans who are resisting his anti-democratic agenda. It’s also a serious escalation of violent authoritarianism from our next door neighbour.

Toronto Star@thestar.com · 3w ago

The Trump administration is hosting a high-level global meeting on combating “political terrorism” in Washington — a move experts have described as a politically-motivated crackdown on left-wing movements. Canada is one of more than 60 countries attending. Just in from @markramzy.bsky.social:

1/ Climate change is not some far-off threat. It is here. It is happening.   And it is caused by the burning of fossil fuels that the Liberal government is pouring billions of public money into expanding.   This is the crisis we cannot afford to ignore.

Incredibly brazen for the Prime Minister to boast about the “lasting benefits” of expanding fossil fuel production on a day like today. Record-breaking heatwaves. Toxic smoke engulfing cities and towns. Out of control wildfires forcing entire communities to evacuate. /1

Mark Carney@mark-carney.bsky.social · 3w ago

The world wants to do more with Canada. Our MOU with Alberta will unlock those opportunities in energy — and create lasting benefits for Canadians.

Yesterday's pipeline announcement is yet another reminder that Prime Minister Carney cares more about lining the pockets of his corporate friends than upholding the Constitutional rights of Indigenous peoples and protecting the public from the escalating climate emergency. (1/6)
