“...the perspective that Pierre would bring would be very much in sync with, I think … the new direction in America. And I think we’d have a really great relationship for the period of time they’re both in.” - Danielle Smith, Breitbart, 8 Mar 2025 #canpoli #cdnpoli

#Google Ads is a piece of garbage like most other Google products. The only thing that is worse is their complete lack of being able to provide service their product. @Google

"They were sick of the robotic slogans. They didn’t like how Ferreri spent time with angry, anti-LGBTQ, pro-convoy, Trudeau-hating people. They were embarrassed by her behaviour here and in Ottawa." *Carleton has just joined the chat* thepeterboroughexaminer.com/…

Yes, I wrote this. And I still believe it to be true.
A truck is not a speech. A horn is not a voice. An occupation is not a protest. A blockade is not freedom, it blocks the liberty of all. A demand to overthrow a government is not a dialogue. The expression of hatred is not a difference of opinion. A lie is not the truth.

If you ever wanted to any more evidence that @CTVNews is a biased right wing dumpster you only have to notice that the removal of @atRachelGilmore from their program. Fact checking absurd statements is not in CTVs interest it seems. #elections2025 #cdnpoli

If you’ve never been on a national campaign it’s easy to believe that crowd size at a rally has any influence over anything.
Pierre Poilievre's rally scheduled tomorrow in Surrey BC had to change to a bigger venue due to overwhelming demand Are you paying attention yet?

Braid: « Earlier in this monumental conflict with Trump, I’ve supported Smith’s lobbying efforts in the States. No more. Her advocacy has shaded into political meddling. »
Smith's cosy ties in U.S. wrecked Poilievre campaign opening. The premier seriously damaged the Conservative campaign right out of the gate.., @DonBraid writes. calgaryherald.com/news/braid… Find out more at nationalnewswatch.com

Danielle Smith’s comments during her Breitbart interview are antithetical to democracy. At a moment when our nation is under attack, and our sovereignty is under threat, she put her need for attention above all Albertans and all Canadians. I'm old enough to know just how fragile this beautiful nation is, and I’ll be damned if I let a reckless, incompetent and unethical Premier undermine what we’ve built here together. 🇨🇦

Wherein Alberta premier Danielle Smith says that she attempted to influence the US administration to hold off on tariffs to give Pierre Poilievre the best chance at winning the upcoming election... Because he'll align Canada with Trump the most. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Danielle Smith’s interview with a far right outlet is evidence that the Alberta premier has courted American interference in the federal election. She asked Trump to pause the trade war, because it is driving support for the Liberals. And she also made a pitch for Poilievre.
