Prime Minister Mark Carney announced his plan to launch a comprehensive trade deal with India. @carlena joined @PnPCBC to unpack the broader context of this move. #cdnpoli

Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne tabled #Budget2025 earlier today. Read through our main takeaways here: #cdnpoli #budget2025 https://t.co/zbgMJqbGlD

Is the cost-of-living crisis elbowing out Trump as Canadians' top worry? If it does, it'll force PM Carney to split focus. Summa's @carlena spoke to @BBCWorld during Carney's visit to the White House yesterday. #CDNpoli

[Carlene Variyan @carlena]

A class act and a great Saskatchewanian, whose contributions to building the Liberal movement in his home province these last few years will not soon be forgotten.
Thank you for your service!

Today, Summa’s @carlena and @powerstim were pleased to join our friends at the @CDNTrades for a post-election political panel. Summa is proud to support the CBTU through our work with the Heat and Frost @InsulatorsUnion #buildingtrades #construction #workers #trades #cdnpoli

Canada's Building Trades unions are among the best in the business. Great to spend some time with members today!

[CDN Building Trades @CDNTrades]

Kicking things off today was David Coletto, Chair and CEO of @abacusdataca, who shared the results of a fascinating poll from Building Trades members. 📈

Thank you to David for sharing key concerns for our members, including the cost of living and heightened concern about employment.

The poll’s findings underscore the urgent need for specific policies that safeguard and promote well-paid, unionized jobs in the construction sector. 🏗️

Could a Liberal defeat Pierre Poilievre in his own riding? Bruce Fanjoy thinks so https://t.co/Y53bwKr2P2

"Mr. Manning proposes that, if he doesn’t get his way in the federal election, we should be pulling apart the country. It is the agenda of our enemies, not our friends."
- our former premier, Roy Romanow, and former Deputy Prime Minister Anne McLellan.

The suggestion that Westerners are only conditionally committed to being Canadian is beyond offensive. This Saskatchewanian would very much like to hear every political party leader disavow Manning’s malignant rhetoric in this election campaign. I’ll wait.

[Dan Arnold @calgarygrit]

This is fantastic. Corey is a super smart guy who gets politics and comms, cares about policy. He'd be a big addition to the Liberal caucus.

Confed is winnable at current support levels. Corey ran the 2015 Matt Grant campaign in the same riding that same oh so close to winning.

🇨🇦 4 reasons Pierre Poilievre isn't connecting with Canadian women 🤷‍♀️
1. Conflated a woman's biological clock with Canada's housing market
2. Joined Jordan Peterson in chat sponsored by pro-life group
3. Said no to making contraceptives free
4. Used misogynistic #MGTOW hashtags

What parent *hasn't* thought this at the end of March Break?

[Karl Bélanger ✖ @KarlBelanger]

After spending more time with my family, I figured it was too much time.

[Carlene Variyan @carlena]

Unlike a totally yawnworthy 2k in the middle of the GTA … this is actually an impressive showing.

Could’ve used some pipe + drape, and the flags are hung too low, but kudos to the organizers. Lot of work goes into these.

[Laura Stone @l_stone]

The scene at Pierre Poilievre’s rally in Stoney Creek awaiting the Conservative leader. Organizers estimate 4,500 people are here. #cdnpoli

[Catherine McKenna @cathmckenna]

The fact that Poilievre refused to get his security clearance given long-time allegations of foreign interference and now serious allegations of meddling by Indian agents and their proxies in his leadership bid is disqualifying for an aspiring Prime Minister.

[Naheed Nenshi @nenshi]

Danielle Smith’s comments during her Breitbart interview are antithetical to democracy.

At a moment when our nation is under attack, and our sovereignty is under threat, she put her need for attention above all Albertans and all Canadians.

I'm old enough to know just how fragile this beautiful nation is, and I’ll be damned if I let a reckless, incompetent and unethical Premier undermine what we’ve built here together. 🇨🇦

[Kevin Bosch @kevinjbosch]

Steve Maher confirms the Conservative war room discussed trying to get a message to Trump to distance himself from them.

Can’t be a coincidence that Trump reversed himself and did exactly that a week ago.

Not smart for the CPC to be colluding with Trump’s team. #cdnpoli

A great past Natural Resources minister at a great annual gotta-be-there event. Love to see it.

It was a week ago tonight that Daylight Saving Time ended in the UK. At 2am Sunday, this indignity will end in Canada too. Saskatchewan is one of the few places in the world that does not suffer this time-trauma twice a year, b/c we’re on the same time all year round. #Sensible!
