While I can't wait for the Ottawa leg of this tour because I have so many questions for these two, they've also given me the idea of doing my own tour.
I talk to Canadians all the time who are just bewildered by this era and the medical scandal unfolding in plain sight.
I think an Ask Mia Anything Tour would be just fabulous.

From my reporting during the Freedom Convoy, one of my favourite moments was when a protestor said to me pointing to Parliament behind us: When Quebeckers and Albertans come together, either those guys did something very bad or something right." 🤣
I haven't posted about a run in a while, b/c I haven't gone for a good run in a while.
Today I ran a 5K. Not my best time, but not a bad time at all.
It's almost a year on this health and wellness journey.
I feel fantastic & am looking forward to one-year apart comparison photos.
Run fatty, run!
@Provokatov Gay men are addicted to the chase. It's free & easy validation with zero risk to their ego. It provides a fake sense of power & control for weak men. If online is a testament of gay culture, the so-called community deserves any hatred it gets. It's a hateful culture.
Well done! You must persist! Your progress and commitment is impressive!
I can relate to the shoulder woes. I snapped a screw in my arm two-months ago doing chin-ups. I've had to change all my upper body training. It sucks; I feel every pull and every push.
Like you, I still persist!

I JUST FILED my Application for Leave to Appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada.
The Crown’s politically motivated Freedom Convoy charges against me have dragged on for OVER 4 YEARS.
A Superior Court judge stayed the case for violating my s. 11(b) Charter right to a speedy trial. The Ontario Court of Appeal overturned it by calling judicial errors summer scheduling “exceptional circumstances.”
This is how they erase your rights. Full story + application in the replies

Upside: Canada is institutionally credible that one of the world’s biggest companies borrowed large sums of money here.
Downside: Canada is increasingly a place that finances other countries' innovation and growth rather than generating enough of our own. https://t.co/Mf4LYqOdFb
@baret_mcauley@rupasubramanya You know what's stupid about your comment? I support Alberta independence. I also lean conservative.
Moreover, your comment is proof of the stupidity of Canadians on both the Left and Right. The Left does not have the market on stupidity.
You're projecting, dumbass!
If our Parliament were a kennel, here’s the bird’s-eye view of the last five years:
JT (Afghan Hound) & Pierre (Chow Chow): One regal and handsome but stubbornly independent and untrainable. The other, attractive, but with lots of fluff, aggressive, self-absorbed, and set in his ways.
Both spent years chained to their benches, barking, snarling, and growling at each other, barely landing a bite.
Now it’s Carney (Golden Retriever) & Pierre (still a Chow Chow): One calm, approachable, and reliably steady with an easygoing charm. The other is still a Chow Chow.
Only one is barking and snarling nonstop. It's not the one landing the bites. The crowd is losing interest in the Chow. Even non-dog people are charmed by a Golden’s chill confidence.
The CPC is barking itself straight into Canada’s dog house, across all demographics.
🚨 Nearly died over the past 2 weeks and spent days inside Vancouver ERs undergoing tests.
While sitting in the ER at Vancouver General Hospital, flyers were being handed out offering patients $360 cash, breakfast, and lunch to smoke medical cannabis and do driving simulator studies.
I’ve been sober 29 years. Sitting in an emergency room being offered drugs felt absolutely dystopian.
Nothing against the doctors and nurses — this is about how broken the system has become.

You're telling me to seek help; I am full of hate b/c I disapprove of @PierrePoilievre & believe he is bad for the CPC.
There's that anger Pierre's leadership nurtures.
I don't hate Pierre; I'm not the one clinging on to a bitter end.
I no longer have any respect for him; he needs to go.
His on-line die hard sycophants - case & point - are souring the party.
You're missing the forest for the trees, while the stump that was Pierre's dream of being PM rots the culture of the party.
You say conservatives will be fine, ignoring or right-out rejecting that I am a conservative voter.
That's a bit hateful.
It's also not a winning strategy.
I'll be alright!
"Poilievre and his defenders point to the vote share, the number of Canadians who voted Conservative, the closeness of the result, the media, the elites, the Liberals, and the political class. But politics doesn’t reward what you think you earned. It rewards what you actually win." Another great read from @t7_linda .
He finally realized there is no momentum behind him. The cloud of hot air and anger he'd been coasting on for the last few years is being eclipsed by a calm leadership Carney brings, like him or not.
Canadians are not an angry population by default. Pierre is an angry MP, be default. His loss last year dropped the veil on his phoney "stateman" persona.
His makeover was superficial.
His inability to evolve and lead runs deep.
"unethical majority".
C'mon. This is how our system works. The CPC has never done anything to change it - because it works as it is for the political parties, not for the people.
Winston Churchill crossed the floor twice. According to current CPC dogma, that makes Churchill a traitor.
Zero logic, because emotions are what Pierre is playing with. It's all he has.
This argument about floor-crossing is built on hypocrisy, idiocy, and sore losing.
The CPC argues @PierrePoilievre alone is responsible for the "historical" popular vote in the 2025 election. That would mean Canadians voted for him, not their local MP. But the floor-crossers: they are betraying their constituents, because the constituents voted for the local candidate, not Pierre.
Which is it CPC? Pick a lane.
An MP crossing the floor is perfectly ethical within our system and it empowers an MP to make a decision that best serves their community. That is what they are elected for. Not for blind loyalty to a single individual chosen by only a select number of delegates. Canadians did not choose Pierre to lead anything. Only loyal, active conservatives did. When asked, Canadians told Pierre he shouldn't lead anything.
I know, I know. Canadians who didn't vote CPC have been corrupted by media propaganda. Donald Trump interfered in the election, 'causing Pierre to lose. Anyone who didn't vote for PIerre, clearly can't hink for themselves.
Bla, bla bla.
A Liberal can argue Pierre is great for the CPC, because from their side of the isle, the LPC keeps beating him. A conservative talks themselves in circles trying to argue he is good for the CPC.
It would seem very much the CPC struggles with Canadians thinking for themselves. If there are Canadians that have been blinded by anger and propaganda, it's the die-hard conservative sector.
They can't see the forest for the trees.
