Proud to have donated non-perishable food to Food Banks Canada. At Christmas especially, we must look after those who are struggling while politicians look the other way. Communities are strongest when we look out for one another, especially when times are hardest 🎄
Will Adams smiles and shakes hands with an Ontario Provincial Police auxiliary officer at an outdoor donation tent. The officer, in uniform and winter hat, holds a jar of jam that was donated to the food drive.

A yellow, formal press-style statement titled “Future Avenir Canada Youth — GTA: STATEMENT.” Dated December 4, 2025, with the heading “FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE.” The body text explains that the writer has met many great people through the Canadian Future Party but feels they no longer fit within the organization. They describe the CFP as a pro-establishment space with institutional guardrails that conflict with their evolving work in journalism through outlets like Left Lane Media Group and The Provincial Times. The statement emphasizes their focus on questioning power, resisting unchallenged authority, and rejecting status-quo narratives from governments, media, and political machines. A continuation of the yellow press-style statement titled “Future Avenir Canada Youth — GTA: STATEMENT.” The text explains that the author’s work focuses on spotlighting overlooked issues and challenging inconvenient narratives. They state that the Canadian Future Party and its youth wing are not built for that kind of independent, anti-establishment work, but they are. The author announces their resignation as Toronto co-lead of CFP Youth, clarifying it is not a dramatic departure but a recognition of their direction toward independent journalism without institutional constraints. They thank members for conversations, camaraderie, and collaboration, and wish them well. The statement ends with “Best regards,” followed by the signature line: “—Will Adams, former Toronto co-lead, CFP Youth.”

Jamil received the publicly funded cancer care that every Canadian deserves. Yet he refuses to call out fellow Conservatives for the privatization that puts that care out of reach for others. Using his story for partisan points while his allies erode universal health care is shameful.
#CDNpoli
A political flyer titled “Pulling Up the Ladder” criticizes MP Jamil Jivani for supporting health-care privatization and failing to address deteriorating hospital conditions in Bowmanville—Oshawa North. The left side contains paragraphs accusing him of politicizing his cancer story while ignoring his party’s harmful policies and not advocating for investment in the local hospital. A bold section highlights that he calls out Doug Ford only when convenient and stays silent on Conservative-driven cuts. The right side shows a black-and-white photo of Jamil Jivani speaking inside a car. A yellow box overlays the bottom right, reading: “Says Nothing About Healthcare Privatization, Claims He’s ‘Canada First.’ Share This If You Are Outraged.” At the bottom, the name “will adams” appears with contact icons and social media handles.

Jamil looks to fascist Washington. I look to the Canadian people.

Bowmanville—Oshawa North deserves better.
A split-screen political graphic. On the left, a black-and-white photo shows a man speaking into a microphone, with bold text reading: “Jamil idolizes Donald Trump, JD Vance, and Stephen Harper’s IDU.” The bottom-left features a blue banner with the name “will adams” and a small Canadian flag. On the right, a colour photo shows a smiling young man holding a microphone in front of the Oshawa House building. Above him, large text reads “I admire Canada.” At the bottom-right, a yellow box contains the slogan “real change starts now.”

“We were friends before politics, we will be friends after politics.”
—Jamil Jivani, Conservative MP for Bowmanville—Oshawa North

#CDNpoli #RestoretheNorth
A political graphic split into two sections. On the left, yellow and white text on a dark background describes reports of Canadians being unlawfully detained by U.S. ICE, including poor conditions and disappearances, and criticizes a Canadian MP for remaining silent despite his friendship with a U.S. vice president. On the right, a black-and-white photo shows two men standing close together with one arm around the other, smiling at the camera. A yellow banner at the bottom reads: ‘Allows His Friend To Kidnap Canadians, Claims He’s “Canada First.” Share This If You Are Outraged.’ The bottom left corner includes the name ‘will adams’ with a small Canadian flag icon, and social/contact icons appear in the bottom right.

Jamil Jivani's record speaks for itself: calls to abolish social programs, targeting trans youth, attacking DEI, and wanting to axe the TFW program overnight. This isn't “Canada First,” it's complete lunacy.

Bowmanville—Oshawa North deserves better than fringe, PPC-style politics.

A political infographic criticizing MP Jamil Jivani. On the left, a black panel titled “WHERE MP JAMIL JIVANI STANDS” lists four points accusing him of harmful positions: cutting the national school food program, restricting gender-affirming care and LGBTQ-inclusive education, opposing DEI programs, and calling for the abolition of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program. Each point argues the real-world consequences for families, youth, and workers. On the right is a black-and-white photo of Jamil Jivani speaking into a microphone and pointing forward. A yellow box overlays the bottom of the photo with the text: “Panders To Fringe, PPC-Style Politics, Claims He’s ‘Canada First.’ Share This If You Are Outraged.” The bottom banner includes “will adams” with a Canadian flag icon and social media/contact handles.

A Threads post by user "realwilladams" shared to "CanadianThreads" that reads: "I submitted this question for the upcoming #NDP leadership debate. Over 150 Canadians are stuck in ICE detention, held without due process, in conditions that would make any decent person sick. Some may have even vanished. This is a blatant violation of international law, and the NDP needs to actually treat it like one." Below the main text is a preview box for a submitted question: "Submit a question Over 150 CDN's are being held in ICE detention without due process, in appalling conditions, and some may have even disappeared. Will you hold the U.S. accountable and push for the release of CDN's unlawfully detained?" Below the question is an orange "RSVP" button. The "Event Details" below the button say: "Thursday, November 27, 2025".

When asked about the 150 Canadians held in ICE concentration camps, NDP leadership hopeful Yves Engler actually gave a straight answer. He laid out how Canada should hold Washington's feet to the fire, starting with demanding our people be released.

Every November, I wear a poppy for my great-grandfather, who left home to fight the Nazis. He didn't do it for glory or theatrics, but because fascism was a real threat. His sacrifice, and those of millions like him, will always command my respect.

I'm proud. I'm grateful. 🇨🇦 #lestweforget

Finally getting around to posting some photos from Thursday at the Marriott. These didn't fit my op-ed, but they're perfect for social media. First up, me with Jonathan Rowe. My mom was very jealous that I got to meet an MP from back in pirate country 🏴‍☠️
Jonathan Rowe smiles at the camera while holding a drink in a hotel lobby. Next to him, Will Adams drinks from a glass; his friend's face is covered by a pink circle labeled ‘My friend who did not want to be posted online.’ Several people stand and walk in the background of the brightly lit lobby.

My latest op-ed from Thursday's Poilievre rally: a room full of Zoomers, big emotions, zero policies, and a whole lot of sloganeering. Why young people keep showing up, and why progressives keep losing them. Read below 🔽
A magazine cover for The Provincial Times dated November 2nd, 2025. The background image shows a crumpled political sign on a carpet that reads “DON’T SACRAFICE OUR FUTURE…” and includes the Conservative Party logo. Bold headline text across the image says “ZOOMERS SHOWS UP. POILIEVRE DOESN’T.” Subheading reads “Poilievre’s promised Gen Z answers but delivered a tedious joke and zero policy.” A small text box on the right contains an excerpt criticizing Poilievre for offering no real solutions despite inviting students to share their struggles. The top banner includes the paper’s slogan, “Independent. Progressive. Unapologetic.” and a note that it’s brought to readers by Left Lane Media Group.

Apparently, every problem in Canada can be solved with just one more pipeline. Incredible stuff.

In Ontario, we may not be able to agree on everything, but one thing we can all get behind is the @bluejays .

Good luck in the World Series!

Here’s an accessible alt text description you can use for this graphic: **Alt Text:** A promotional graphic from the Ontario Liberal Party wishing the Toronto Blue Jays good luck in the World Series. The image features a stylized baseball stadium background in blue and red tones. Large white text in the center reads “Good Luck Toronto Blue Jays” with “in the World Series” below it inside a white rectangular border. The Ontario Liberal Party logo appears at the bottom in a red box with the word “LIBÉRAL.” Decorative white paint splatter and dotted patterns appear in the corners.

Just published my new piece on Restore the North. What I witnessed at TMU, the good, the bad, and the truth behind the “dialogue” Conservatives claim to champion. If we want real debate in Canada, we must demand better than scripted talking points. 👇
A magazine cover for *The Provincial Times* dated October 25th, 2025. The tagline reads: “Independent. Progressive. Unapologetic.” The cover features a photo of two smiling people standing together indoors. The person on the left is wearing a dark jacket and cap, while the person on the right is wearing a “Make Canada Great Again” hat and a long-haired wig or long hair. The headline reads: “RESTORE THE MUTE BUTTON — How Jamil Jivani’s ‘Restore the North’ tour turned debate into theatre and what it says about Canada’s new right.” A pull-quote on the right says: “Instead of genuine engagement, attendees got prepackaged slogans lifted straight from campaign pamphlets, with no follow-through, no explanation, and no nuance. I also want to point out: you just can’t solve every problem by building another pipeline. At some point, you’ve gotta bring something else to the table.” The cover is branded “Brought to you by Left Lane Media Group,” with photo credit to Will Adams.

Daniel Tyrie is the perfect example of why I can't take modern “anti-woke” conservatism seriously. It's people paying actual money to be told their heritage somehow makes them more legitimate than their neighbours. It's arrogance dressed up as patriotism, and it's pathetic. 🔽
A newspaper front page with the headline "HERITAGE HUCKSTER! Tyrie's 'Dominion Society' pitch called out as self-serving spin in bombshell report" from The Provincial Times. The date is October 22nd, 2025. The main photo shows a smiling young man, Daniel Tyrie, in a pinstripe shirt and bow tie, standing in front of a person in a large brown beaver mascot costume labeled "WATERLOO". A smaller block of text in the lower right corner, attributed to Author: Will Adams, reads: "The contradiction lies in how Tyrie's entire political persona is built around drawing lines that would exclude families exactly like his. When you claim Mark Carney's children or Pierre Poilievre's children are 'at most, half Canadian,' you are defining national belonging by patricide. And by that definition, Daniel Tyrie himself—son of a foreign-born father—would also be 'at most, half Canadian.' " The photo credit is Rob Tyrie/X.

Do NOT lend credibility to far-right narratives by arguing on their terms. That's exactly what they want: to drag you into a bad-faith debate so they can twist your words and control the narrative. Instead, stand your ground. Everyone has the right to bodily autonomy.
An image of a Threads post by Will Adams 1/2 (@realWillAdams) on a black background. The text reads: "“nO aCtUaLlY tRaNs PeOpLe dOnT wAnT tO tRaNsItIoN kIdS”" "This is a terrible argument." "It plays defence against a lie and validates a moral panic that shouldn't exist. The moment you argue on their terms, you've already lost. You're accepting that trans lives are something to be explained or defended instead of lived." There is a small circular profile picture of Will Adams smiling, and a logo at the bottom with the text "WILL ADAMS." An image of a Threads post by Will Adams 2/2 (@realWillAdams) on a black background. This is the second part of a thread. The text reads: "The issue isn’t proving trans people aren’t a threat, it’s making sure everyone has autonomy, dignity, and access to care without the political aristocracy deciding who’s “appropriate.”" "Stop debating existence. Start defending it." There is a small circular profile picture of Will Adams smiling, and a logo at the bottom with the text "WILL ADAMS."

On Thursday, I had the honour of meeting @beynate.bsky.social and watching a live episode of Uncommons, one of my favourite podcasts. It was a great experience. Nate's a genuinely thoughtful, down-to-earth guy.

Always nice when someone you respect actually lives up to it.

A tweet by Yves Engler (@EnglerYves) quoting an article from the Provincial Times that describes him as "A long-time activist, author, & political provocateur... among anti-imperialist grassroots organizers, he has been a lightning rod with a career spent challenging Canadian foreign policy, exposing corporate power & clashing with political elites."

Just rewatched The Lorax after many years. I'd forgotten about Cy, the O'Hare delivery guy who says trees are “worth a try.” Think about it: he basically spoke out against his own employer & lost his job for a better world. That's courage. That's public service.

Bravo, Cy! 🌳
A close-up of Cy, the O'Hare delivery guy, from the movie The Lorax. He is a large man with a very thick, dark brown mustache and a bald head. He wears a light blue button-up shirt, a white baker's apron with straps, and a white paper hat with a light blue stripe and the "O'Hare" logo on the front. He has a melancholy or downtrodden expression, with his eyes cast downward. The background is a blurry, purplish-blue.
