It’s insane that Halifax allows a corporation to block a sidewalk for thirteen years.

The scrubs reboot - chef’s kiss for what it’s really like at the hospital (as was the OG scrubs). Excellent work @VDOOZER @zachbraff 👌🙌 #scrubs

Poilievre winning a seat in Battle River - Crowfoot would be roughly equivalent to trump winning a golf tournament at Mar a Lardo.

And now it's time for the Canadian edition of Land Doesn't Vote
When you look at the map it looks like a Conservative super-majority; however, Canada is totally rigged to deliver a Liberal “win” every time. ✅ Atlantic Canada: over-represented with seats and bought-off with equalization money and Liberal spending programs ✅ The North: bought-off and subsidized by Liberal Ottawa ✅ Quebec: bought-off with equalization money and Liberal Ottawa’s constant spending largesse ✅ Montreal, Toronto, Winnipeg and Vancouver’s big-city socialists and immigrants bought-off with Liberal promises of “free stuff” The rest of Canada get’s screwed-over every time: especially Alberta! It’s time for Albertans to stop playing in a rigged game that is designed to abuse and rob us. It’s time to fire Ottawa and free Alberta. It’s time to strike out on our own. We owe it to future generations of Albertans to deliver them an independent Alberta offering prosperity and liberty for all Albertans. Liberal voters made their decision today. They think they control everything and everyone. Let’s give them a dose of reality by leaving Canada’s rigged Liberal clown-show as quickly as possible. Make it happen @ABDanielleSmith. There’s no more excuses to stay in a system that does nothing but harm us. Let’s go.

Let's be very clear: This is wrong. No one should see your ballot when you're marking it except you. You should be alone in the ballot box. The only exception is people who need assistance. That requires a formal declaration Elections Canada severely erred allowing this bc../

On the last day of the campaign, this remains true. #cdnpoli
No one can claim to put “Canada First” while refusing to be briefed on threats to our nation and people. Full stop. #cdnpoli #CanadaStrong

Canada votes tomorrow, and it is blessed to have one of the most fair, secure and accessible voting systems of any democracy. Here's how: 1) Paper Based: every ballot is paper-based and counted by hand. Each ballot is secured by a signature from the local poll officer, so ballot stuffing is impossible. 2) Open Counting - every candidate can send observers (scrutineers) to watch the count, ensuring that it is accurate. I've volunteered to do this many times. Ballot boxes are opened and the ballots placed on a table, and counted in front of everyone. 3) Voter-ID - Every eligible voter gets a voting card in the mail telling them where to vote. This is based on a central voters list which is automatically compiled and updated based on tax returns and other info. This card serves as their ID. If they don't get a card in the mail, they can get added to the voters list with photo ID and a recent bill showing their address. There's no controversy over 'voter-ID' that there is in the US, and no attempts to keep voters off the list. 4) Accessible and Neutral - No election materials are allowed in or near polling stations. Polling stations are everywhere, well advertised, and often walking distance in towns and cities. 5) Limited Corporate Money - No corporate or union donations are allowed for any candidate. They can only accept personal donations, which are capped at $1750 a year, and parties get a subsidy from the government based on how many votes they got in the last election. 6) No Gerrymandering - Electoral districts are set by a non-partisan committee every 10 years, and are fairly simple geometric shapes, nothing like what we see in the US. Make sure to get out and vote tomorrow!

Seeing young Canadian women, (20s - 30s) planning to vote Conservative. I’d like to remind them that many of us alive today remember when women couldn’t open a bank account without their husband’s signature/couldn’t get a bank loan/had no access to abortion. We can’t go back.

Poilievre is right. Vote for change. Vote for the candidate that hasn’t been involved in politics for the past 20 years. Vote for someone not stuck in the past, vote for someone with fresh ideas, someone who knows how to handle Trump & won’t lie down for him Vote for @MarkJCarney

This is genuinely funny👇, at a campaign event Mr. Carney addresses Poilievre supporters protesting some WEF conspiracy nonsense.

If CPC is going to attack Carney's costed plan, the least they can do is release one of their own. Poilievre has had far more time to get his prepared as he's been campaigning for years. What's his excuse now?

Where’s YOUR costed platform? I want to see how you’re going to simultaneously implement big tax cuts while keeping all of Trudeau’s big-spending programs (dental, pharma, day care) and still manage to balance the budget.
$130 billion of new Liberal inflationary spending means higher taxes & rising food & housing costs. Carney is doubling down on the same high-spending Liberal policies that DOUBLED our debt, DOUBLED housing costs, and DOUBLED food bank lineups. You can't afford a 4th Liberal term. Vote for Change. Vote Conservative.

It’s a red flag 🚩 that Poilievre hasn’t released his costed platform and hasn’t received his security clearance. We are 8 days from the election both extremely important things for a candidate.

How can a guy who’s been campaigning across the country for the last 2 years still not have a platform? 20 years on the job and he still doesn’t have a plan.

A reporter asks Poilievre if he would keep in place or repeal Trudeau's freeze on the sale of handguns. He dodges the question and talks about illegal guns crossing the border instead. Unsatisfied that he didn't answer, she asks again. He refuses and points to the next reporter. Not good! WATCH:

#MarkCarney has been Prime Minister for 37 days, of which 27 have been an election campaign He's barely had time to do anything Pierre's scumbag base can oppose in earnest These flags prove these people don't care about nor oppose policy. They never did.. They oppose democracy
