Oops! Illegally accessed the Quebec National Assembly mobile website in English by accident. Do I turn myself in to the OQLF? #qcpoli #assnat #polqc Image
TIL that if I were still working as a journalist, I wouldn't be allowed to access, read and quote the English version of #Bill96 via the National Assembly website. #catch96 #qcpoli #assnat Image
That is, unless I drove to Ontario and did it from there. #catch96 #qcpoli #assnat

Rich immigrants who moved to #Vancouver through Quebec's back-door investor program now own, on avg, $4.6m worth of housing. But they're only paying taxes on annual incomes of a paltry $100k. A gov.-enabled scam. Via @GoldinYVR, #vanre #vanpoli #cdnpoli theglobeandmail.com/real-estate/va…
2/ @Ayan604 says the system is failing new immigrants who’ve arrived to work and settle, if it also allows new immigrants who are here (simply) because they are wealthy and have an appetite for real estate investment. #vanre #torontorealestate #onpoli #Cdnimm #bcpoli #vanpoli
3 / And what's more ... Quebec gets 10 times more than B.C. and Ontario to settle immigrants. #ICYMI #BCpoli #Cdnimm #cdnpolitics #onpoli #abpoli #qcpoli #immigration.

Enfilade de bienvenue

Monsieur Boileau, vous avez une grande décision à prendre dans les prochaines heures qui impactera la vie de nombreuses familles, des enfants et du personnel scolaire.

Les écoles sont des vecteurs importants de transmission, représentant lorsqu’elles sont ouvertes plus de 50% des éclosions actives.
Si on rajoute le milieu de garde et CPE, ce sera 6 éclosions sur 10 qui émaneront de lieux physiques mal ventilés dans lesquels nos enfants passent leurs journées

It’a time to take notice of what’s happening in Nova Scotia.

“[Anti-maskers are] nothing more than an alt-right group that wants to protest things like science.”

@IainTRankin, Premier of NS.

Why are other leaders hesitant to say this?

#nspoli

On May 14th, the Nova Scotia Supreme Court granted an injunction to "prevent Freedom Nova Scotia and similar groups from staging illegal gatherings in defiance of Nova Scotia's public health orders."

I'm so envious. 😭

@JustinTrudeau starts off his news conference by stating situation w/ #COVID19 very serious across country.
"Everyone is working around the clock to get as many Canadians vaccinated as quickly as possible," he says, a few hours after we've heard @US_FDA reco to hit pause on Johnson and Johnson vaccine. (BG here: cbc.ca/news/world/joh…)
"On est tous tannés de la #COVID19 ," @JustinTrudeau says, saying the events in Montreal (storefronts were shattered a couple of nights ago) show everyone is tired, but have to keep following public health guidelines. #cdnpoli #qcpoli #yul

🧵 Far-right, anti-choice #Conservatives in public office.

This is Michael Barrett, #CPC shadow minister for “ethics”. Barrett routinely sends profoundly dishonest mail-outs to his constituents, which only occasionally get challenged by the targets of his disinformation #cdnpoli
Barrett is cut from the same broad cloth as #PierrePoilievre, Derek Sloan & other #Conservative members across 🇨🇦. All of them helped into power by far right anti-choice organizations like Campaign Life Coalition & “RightNow”. #cdnpoli #CPC
Both CLC & RightNow are far right disinformation dispensing anti-choice groups whose members oppose abortion even in the case of rape & incest. Their extremist positions even target #Conservatives with less extreme views. #cdnpoli

1) Conservative Premiers & #cdnmedia are blaming PMJT for vaccine delays & want to see Pharma contracts.

Some are accusing PMJT for taking vaccines from poor countries (COVAX) which is not true.

#abpoli #skpoli #mbpoli #qcpoli #onpoli #qcpoli #cdnpoli
globalnews.ca/news/7621318/t…
2) Vaccines coming thru COVAX were always meant to benefit Canada & poor countries. We're also one of COVAX's top donors so that poor countries have access to vaccines.

PMJT "...encouraged premiers to tell their constituents ... that weekly disruptions in supplies are to be
3) expected, but that he has been assured by the CEOs of both Pfizer and Moderna that they will meet their contractual obligations to Canada to provide a combined 6 million doses by the end of March."

Take a look at this vile lie being spread by #ErinOToole #JeffBallingall & #CPC. Look at this & tell me the political right isn’t colluding to overthrow democracy. Btw, the strengthened election laws are designed to limit #DarkMoney funding. #cdnpoli #TrumpTreason

I’m attaching this old thread on Jeff Ballingall, since people need to know just how dangerous to democracy the #CPC has become.

1. They keep denying it, but now Masschusetts, France, and Canada have seen #COVID19 medical equipment diverted to the USA.

45 is letting other countries/states do the hard work of sourcing materials, then swooping in to outbid in order to hijack them.

2. Les gouvernments de l'état du Massachusets, de la France, et du Canada remarquent que de l'équipement vitale pour lutter au #COVID19 a été détourné et redirigé aux États-Unis

Reading Adam King’s piece yesterday in The Conversation made be think about @BernieSanders’s workplace democracy plan and what a similar plan might look like in #cdnpoli berniesanders.com/en/issues/work…
@BernieSanders First, many of Bernie’s plans are uniquely American. #canlab does not have to worry about public medicare (already exists!) or right-to-work laws (don’t exist in #cdnpoli). Bernie’s plan is so radical in part because the situation for workers in the US is so bad.
@BernieSanders And some of Bernie's plan has been in place in #cdnpoli provs for decades: first contract arbitration; right of public workers to strike (#skpoli since 1944); banning replacement workers (#bcpoli & #qcpoli since 1990s); stopping companies from shifting ownership to avoid a union

Well, la Journée internationale des Patriotes (Quebec’s Patriots’ Day) is almost upon us and, as in years prior, there seems to be little consensus as to its significance, as to what it means. #cdnhist #qcpoli 1/8
Historians and political commentators have described the Lower Canadian Patriots who rebelled in 1837 (and for several days in 1838) as deeply egalitarian – but also as a predominantly middle-class group seeking to extend its influence and jealously guarding its privileges. 2/8
Sometimes democrats, sometimes decolonizers, the Patriots have been made into French-Canadian nationalists, but also into representatives of a Canada-wide push for colonial autonomy (regardless of ethnicity), and into Americanizers and annexationists. 3/8

1 of 80) Please bear with me, because the following is filled with plenty of foul language & I'm taking off the professional mask to speak with you as a human being. I've had enough & I've hit my limit, putting up with all the #MeToo bullshit in #CDNpoli, #ONpoli, & #CDNmedia
2) For the past 2 years, you've been ruining my #FamilyDay because the lot of you picked this holiday to shove an alleged child molester down my throat. It's the ultimate in sick behaviour & your choice of holiday is astounding, to champion the cause of #ChildPorn in #CDNpoli
3) What's worse is that forcing me to say those words actually makes me appear like I'm out-to-lunch. Your outrageous acts of gaslighting, censorship, & obstruction, have made it impossible for anyone to tell the most important #MeToo story in #CDNpoli currently
