@AishaEstey27 @P_Ratchford A total dick move.

With respect, I'd gently push back on the characterization being made here.

Labelling a man a Liberal simply because he chooses to offer counsel in a moment of national importance is neither fair nor particularly thoughtful. Erin O'Toole served under the Harper government as a Cabinet Minister, led the Conservative Party of Canada, and has dedicated a significant chapter of his life to advancing conservative values in this country. That record doesn't dissolve because he elects to be useful when Canada needs steady hands.

Patriotism is not the exclusive property of any one party. The willingness to set aside partisan comfort and contribute to Canada's well-being — even under a government one did not support — is not weakness or betrayal. It is, in fact, one of the finest expressions of what it means to put country before politics.

I know Erin O'Toole personally. And while he and I may not be the same type of conservative, I can tell you with confidence that he has done immeasurably more for this country — through his years of service in the Canadian Armed Forces, his time as a Cabinet Minister, and his leadership of the Conservative Party — than those who now sit in judgment of him from a safe distance. That kind of record commands respect, not ridicule.

Cheap shots from the sidelines may feel satisfying in the moment, but they do nothing to advance the conservative cause. Worse, they send a troubling signal: that partisan purity matters more to some than Canada's actual success. That is not a message any serious conservative should want to broadcast.

So please, sit this one out. Because frankly, this reflects far more poorly on you than it does on him.

True conservatives have always put Canada first. Mr. O'Toole is doing exactly that. Perhaps the more productive question isn't why he stepped up — but whether the rest of us are willing to do the same.

@kareemformayor These boat owners pay thousands in strata or Moorage fees and contribute to the Vancouver economy. Not to mention fuel and other services to support the small businesses.

[Jacquie Prokopanko @jacquieproko]

Absolutely. When I lived in the Broughtons as a children the mail came once a week or twice a week either by a float plane or Steamship with other cargo. Our parents then had to go pick it up.

Most rural people, including small town folks, go to post office or multi-box systems.

We went two weeks ago and it was amazing. It is a family run and supports local producers.

Richmond City Council doesn’t support local agriculture.They allowed the City to shut down a farmers’ market selling locally-grown food to appease apartment dwellers who don’t want their bucolic views over farm fields disrupted by activities. #richmondbc #athianaacres #localagriculture #alr #humanscalelocalagricture #agraarianurbanism #agriculturalurbanism #farmersmarkets #steveston #stevestonbc #localfarming #farmfieldsjustforshow #richmomdcitycouncil #cityofrichmond #mayormalcolmbrodie

Well done!

The announcement that Greta Thunberg heard from the EL AL pilot when her plane landed: thanks for brave IDF soldiers and prayers for the real hostages - to applause from passengers.

A wonderful article on my Uncle Billy. A true legend.

Let me fix it for you @AP you mean brutally murdered.

@BenMulroney remember going to that concert with you guys as well!

[Ben Mulroney @BenMulroney]

We recap the wildest day in Ottawa since me and my siblings caught Huey Lewis and the News at the Ex, on the #BenMulroneyShow.

[Jacquie Prokopanko @jacquieproko]

It also demonstrates he knows nothing about your dad who was enormously proud of all of you!

[Ben Mulroney @BenMulroney]

I have never spoken for my dad. I find it curious that you would feel entitled to do so… stranger who has never met him.

[Jacquie Prokopanko @jacquieproko]

I thought of you friend @Anthony__Koch last night as I watched the horrific scenes of hate in Montreal. I can’t believe this is tolerated in Canada.

[Jacquie Prokopanko @jacquieproko]

And a lot of people have already done their Xmas shopping.

[John Ibbitson @JohnIbbitson]

What’s the point of eliminating the GST on Christmas trees starting on Dec 14? Most trees are up by then.

[Jacquie Prokopanko @jacquieproko]

Perhaps if someone/anyone would do something about this in advance this would not keep happening.

Fellow feminists, please just do one thing for me today. Go on the Instagram stories, grids and Twitter profiles of all your female human rights lawyer champs and feminist commentators and writers, and check if they have posted Eden Yerushalmi's face. All of the ones who have not do not care about women. They care about their own grift.

Absolutely it works amazing in the most remote areas. I don’t understand why it is not the solution versus the expensive of broadband.

[Laureen Teskey Harper @LaureenHarper]

Great service. My old internet was 15 mbps, basically dial-up. Starlink varies, 50 to 175 mbps. Changes everything.

[Jacquie Prokopanko @jacquieproko]

@steeletalk as someone who boats in FC the problem is the “shared jurisdiction” which means constant passing of the buck. The majority of the boats do not register/ have proper anchors/heads that function etc. VPD Marine Unit do what they can but the laws have no teeth.

[Lynda Steele 🇨🇦 @steeletalk]

@42kareemallam Hmm. There must be a better way to recoup salvage costs.
