The emails from the former Manning Centre are getting increasingly unhinged.

CANADA STRONG & FREE NETWORK

Dale,

The Liberals are playing a DANGEROUS game with our country! They’re pushing the Supreme Court to SLASH the Notwithstanding Clause.

THIS IS THE GLUE THAT HOLDS OUR CONSTITUTION TOGETHER.

We’re really worried, Dale. This could spark a crisis and tear our nation apart!

Even the experts are warning this is a “SHOCKING” move that could lead to a full-blown CONSTITUTIONAL MELTDOWN!

Tell Us Where You Stand!
Should the Radicals mess with our Constitution?
No way! Protect Provincial Rights!
Yes, Let Ottawa Rule
I’m Concerned – Need More Info

This is called nipping a problem in the bud and I’m ok with that.

There really are some places a woman doesn’t belong. 😉

Thank you so much for reading my article. Who knew a woman plowing into a man’s world would be like this?

The first woman - in the this case the first Canadian woman - to do the job is often not appreciated at the time and I usually disagree.

This time, it’s different…

Thank you, Kara. I don’t know why Canadians are concentrating on 🇺🇸and ignoring the dangers in our own country. I know he’s loud and all over the news, but Canada matters and we shouldn’t be distracted

Great reminder. While there’s so much chaos and uncertainty churning in the US that has global impact, it’s important to keep our eye on the prize here at home, such as the values we stand for, speak out about, influence and vote for. It’s about our own free, independent and very 🇨🇦 way of life.

Mary Fernando M.D. 🇨🇦 @maryfernando.bsky.social · 12h

I will keep drumming this drum: don’t get distracted by 🇺🇸politics: we have our own homegrown variety.

From climate change denial to attacks on vaccines and science to eliminating birthright citizenship and a woman’s right to choose, we have our own extremism.

Thank you, Jonathan. I’m appalled at how many Canadians are talking about the dangers in 🇺🇸politics but ignoring the same policies as Conservatives throw them out at home.

Regardless, just talking about him and ignoring the Conservative platform helps no one.

We need to take Canadian politics seriously or we will be in serious trouble.

I think we should keep our eyes on Canada and not on Trump. The Canadian conservatives are trying to end birthright citizenship and also every one of their MPs has voted against women’s rights. So look to Canada and worry about what is already happening here.

Thanks @geoffypjohnston.bsky.social for an excellent interview with @cathmckenna.bsky.social

It brilliantly describes how misogyny isn’t a side issue but a major one that impedes progress.

“We will have to hold some media companies accountable,” @cathmckenna.bsky.social said of online hate & misogyny. “There are no controls, because these large U.S. companies, run by billionaire tech bros, use algorithms to amplify hate.” www.thewhig.com/opinion/run-...
