Pierre Poilievre (@PierrePoilievre) shares his vision for making Canada the world's best place to build a life—with practical solutions for a more prosperous future.

TKP is not a political podcast—and won't become one. I've invited both major party leaders to share their visions because I'm deeply concerned about how public discourse has degraded into angry soundbites. We've lost the ability to explore complex issues with patience and good faith. This conversation is my small effort to model what better dialogue might look like.

Shopify’s Q4 Earnings are out and let’s just say Q4 was a hell of a quarter on top of one hell of a year.

Here’s a snapshot of @Shopify in 2024:
- @Shopify is now over 12% of ecommerce in the US
- Powered nearly $300 billion in GMV - that’s nearly 2.5x more than 2020
- Hit nearly $9 billion in revenue - that’s 3x more than 2020
- Paid out $1 billion to partners for apps benefiting our merchants
- Crossed $1 Trillion in cumulative GMV
- And over 875 million people bought something from a @Shopify merchant’s online store

I’ve done 39 earnings calls at this point in my 15 years here at @Shopify. What you’re seeing is the best version of Shopify to date...and we’re still just getting started.

This is the best team, product, business model, and operational discipline since I joined. It’s incredibly exciting - and I can’t wait for what we are going to do in 2025.

Shopify has lowered the cost of failure dramatically. That’s why you see more merchants of all sizes, across all verticals, coming to both start and scale their businesses. We have created the most unified commerce platform so that everything in your business works together really really well.

BANGLADESH 🇧🇩: @amnesty has analysed and authenticated witness testimonies, video and photographic evidence which confirms that the police used unlawful force against student protesters.

Further witness testimonies confirm the continuation of a multi-year pattern of violence against protesters, allegedly committed by members of the Bangladesh Chatra League (BCL), a group affiliated with the ruling party.

Our analysis finds that the shooting of student protestor Abu Sayed in Rangpur, was a seemingly intentional, unprovoked attack on an individual posing no threat to police officers, using ammunition designed for hunting which is extremely dangerous and unlawful for use in the policing of protests.

"We urgently call on the Government of Bangladesh to rehabilitate all those injured and ensure they receive proper medical treatment. The authorities must also ensure that all those engaged in the attacks on peaceful protesters are held to account, and that an impartial, independent, and swift investigation is conducted against these attackers as well as the police officers who have directly perpetrated or failed to prevent such breaches of the law" said Taqbir Huda, Regional Researcher for South Asia at Amnesty International.
