Poilievre and allies don’t just want to weaken government regulations on zero-emission vehicles.

They aim to kill them.

too bad she didn't win against Poilievre, especially as he came out on his first day back with a queerphobic tirade. and I mean, her politics are not my politics but you can tell she has connections to her community and has contributed deeply there, unlike Mr. parachute candidate.

PM Mark Carney and Minister Hajdu have urgent work to do to ensure flight attendants are paid in FULL for every minute they work, and that section 107 of the Labour Code is abolished so workers are protected from government intervention and their Charter right to collective bargaining is respected. #canada #fediverse #flightattendant #cabincrew #canpoli #cdnpoli #aircanada #westjet #cupe

"Canadian Labour Congress president Bea Bruske told CBC News that she thinks the Liberal government made a mistake in using Section 107 so often, and will now have to face the consequences of an emboldened labour movement. “ https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/section-107-undermines-liberal-government-1.7613820

There's something seriously wrong in the heads of Conservatives in every country where they're found. #canpoli

Project de loi C-2 : « Renforcer la coopération avec un gouvernement américain qui tient pour acquis que les demandeurs d’asile, pourtant protégés par les conventions internationales, sont des « immigrants illégaux », ce n’est pas lutter contre le crime, c’est plutôt coopérer avec des gens qui déterminent à leur fantaisie ce qui constitue un comportement criminel. » #canpoli #polcan

PP victory speech is such BullShit. "For anyone knocked down ..." He went to the safest riding in the country for the Cons.

The liberals must be happy Air Canada stepped in it so badly because it’s taking a little public attention away from just how badly the government messed this one up

“This victory isn’t a noteworthy accomplishment, nor does it indicate a comeback for the Conservatives. Rather, success here was the bare minimum; the start of a much longer journey back to prominence for the Conservatives.” #abpoli #canpoli

Sharing this rant to #EndFossilFuels again since *after* I made this, *another* fire (#underwoodFire) started even closer to #PortAlberni. Like so many other towns this year, it has threatened all of our homes and lives.

There is blame to lay: it is at the feet of the fossil fuel industry.

To every person in Canada, including oil industry workers:

We must transition people out of this destructive work at a wartime pace. We can do it, we just have to want to help each other end fossil fuels as soon as possible.

PP won his by-election. pity. I never want to see or hear that man in public again but it's inevitable now. sadly.

#RIP to Catherine Galliford: a hero former RCMP member who lead the way in exposing the culture of sexual harassment in that force that still exists to this day. She died on August 15 of liver cancer. She suffered from PTSD and Agoraphobia due to her experience not as an RCMP officer, but from speaking out.

Her friend and RCMP colleague says: ”to current RCMP members: In Catherine's name and Catherine memory, you have to find your voice”
