An OPS cruiser drove right past these two bike lane blockers, because of course it did.

He can be, but is he? What proof do we have that he suffers from mental health issues?

Why wouldn’t he keep his job in January? Do you think large chunks of the CPC aren’t also infected with the same far-right brain rot that he’s exhibiting?

Yes, because cyclists regularly come out on top against truck drivers angry enough to pull alongside someone just trying and yapping at them for a couple of blocks.

Are you actually this dense? Get a grip.

TIL the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services doesn't know what a parent is.

Do you think everyone with mental health issues are scumbags, or just the ones you see on the street?

You say "bonkers", I say "about what I'd expect, given what we've seen over the years".

Anyone that says kids don't paying attention to politics and the effects leaders can have needs to be sent a copy of this game.

The game board being shaped like the Pentagon is a smart touch.

Went for a walk from Bowesville Station back to Centretown. It’s wild how in-the-middle-of-nowhere that station is. Would have walked from Linebank but I don’t relish walking on the shoulder for 2-3 kms next to 80+km/h traffic.

As always, Ottawa is so far behind that we aren’t seriously trying to catch up… and we’ll continue to fall
behind with the sort of leadership we’ve been experiencing on both sides of the aisle at Council.

Bike share revenue is up over 30% compared to last year, and now has close to 300k unique customers. That is 10% of the population of Toronto! I also think that their internal forecasts are a little pessimistic pinning 2025 rides at 8.1 million. I forecast closer to 8.3M when the year is over.

Gotta wonder how much she’s made from donations by other far-right nutjobs. I imagine the $ she’s been given makes her councillor salary look like peanuts.

Best way to avoid bike theft is to go beyond bike ownership: make serious investments in bikeshare programs, and ensure e-bikes are part of the fleet.

It’s a "crisis" when immigrants "take jobs away", but "innovation" when machines do. Funny.

PP casually telling extremely obvious lies that not only completely defy logic, but defy what we all witnessed with our own eyes.

And 41% of Canadians voted for his party less than a year ago.

We are not immune to what’s happening in the States.

Mr. Tough-on-Crime wishes the convoy leaders a peaceful and happy life.

@PierrePoilievre
Tamara Lich and Chris Barber peacefully protested the imposition of emergency measures that the Federal Court found to be unlawful and unconstitutional.

Instead of pursuing rapists, drug dealers and other monsters, the Crown sought lengthy prison sentences.

Justice Perkins-McVey rightly rejected the Crown's request, and sent Tamara and Chris home to their families.

We must get to a justice system that ensures the security and freedom of all Canadians.

I wish Chris and Tamara a peaceful and happy life.

This isn’t even true, either; they weren’t protesting the use of the Emergencies Act, they were protesting masking mandates.

The lies this man tells… they’re endless.
