Pierre Poilievre says he wants to β€œrestore merit.” He needed to be handed arguably the safest, most impossible to lose conservative seat in all of Canada after losing his own seat.

Seems like the opposite of merit. #Poilievre

(oh, and he still refuses to complete a check for a security clearance)

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Another thing we need to manufacture more of, menstruation products. I have only been able to find one brand locally that's a made in Canada. At shoppers drug Mart, the life brand makes pads that are made in Canada. But the selection is super limited.

Oh yeah, they're super pricey. I found good luck at London drugs or shoppers drug Mart when they go on sale, but the price at Costco can't be beat

I have found a surprising amount of quality shampoo & conditioner sets at Costco that are made in Canada. Including Marc Anthony hair products & Nutrius Brazilian Shampoo & Conditioner & John Frieda hair kits.
