A proof is a proof. Tired of people not doing even the most basic research for themselves.

Follow me if you agree facts exist & should be used. Period.

Re 24 Sussex Drive:

No other country in the world would have had generational paralysis over something like this.

Finally an adult decision. Thank you PMs Harper and Chrétien for helping break the cycle.

Let’s move on now.

Chronically unable to reach past the pinched, partisan take. If PP feels renovation of 24 Sussex is such an insult, let him haul ass out of Stornoway tomorrow. Carney has pulled a page from Pearson and the flag design competition of the 60s. In time, it will be celebrated.

Jenni Byrne + Associates, the company owned by Poilievre's campaign manager Jenni Byrne, is a registered lobbyist for Penny Lane Entertainment, the company that owns Cowboys.

True, it shouldn't be a big preoccupation, but also it shouldn't take you long to formulate a position, especially since you live in an official residence, and presumably you believe there is value in having them.

A spineless response.

I already liked the sound of him. Stop selling me what I already want.

This will not bode well for Labour, as well intentioned as it is

I fear disunity leads to more disunity

Was not expecting a Canadian Parliament connection in this one.

@MichelleRempel any idea how your name got involved in this?

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

More than 40 years ago, I arrived in Chicago in search of an idea. I was a young man looking for purpose, who believed deeply in America, was inspired by the Civil Rights Movement, and wanted to be a part of something larger. The America I believed in was one where everyone has opportunity, everyone is seen, everyone belongs—because that was an America that had a place for me, too.

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Michelle Obama to Barack Obama: You were doing the people's work. Rescuing our economy. Expanding healthcare. Ending a war. Ordering the Bin Laden raid. Saving the auto industry. Winning a peace prize. Keeping us safe from Ebola. Regulating the banks. Standing up for marriage equality. Listening to science. And comforting an entire nation. And you did it all with such grace, and class, and cool.

[CNN @CNN]

Former President Barack Obama is viewed positively by 57% of Americans, a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS finds, far surpassing the ratings for his two Oval Office successors. Only 34% of the public offers a favorable opinion of President Donald Trump, with former President Joe Biden's favorability trailing at just 30%. https://t.co/5yRK0iqSGr
