Some people clearly don’t understand how spending works!

No - government is not cutting, as the story Avi refers to, Canada Post NINETY EIGHT PERCENT.
And it’s absurd to think that becuase people don’t get Parliamentary process (fair!)
A thread 🧵 1/n

Danielle Martin is an experienced family physician and health care leader with deep roots in University—Rosedale.
We’re thrilled to welcome her as our Liberal candidate in the upcoming federal by-election.
Deeply saddened to learn of the passing of the Hon. Ken Dryden, a Canadian hockey legend and hall of famer, public servant and inspiration. He was a 6-time Stanley Cup Champion, 5-time Vezina trophy winner, Minister of Social Development, and dedicated Parliamentarian.
Ken Dryden was the reason I became a goalie, although I never mastered his ability to lean on his stick let alone keep the puck out of the net.
His return to university at the height of his playing career taught the importance of balance in life. His post-hockey career demonstrated the value of public service.
Few Canadians have given more, or stood taller, for our country.
Ken Dryden was Big Canada. And he was Best Canada. Rest in peace.
A tale of two tax cuts.
Pierre Poilievre has quietly walked back his own promise, delivering less for Canadians for the next two years as we head into an economic crisis.
There's a lot at stake in this election, but the core ballot question is still this: who is best placed to defend our economic and national security against Donald Trump?
We deserve serious leadership.
"In 2025, Mr. Harper is being called on to save Pierre Poilievre from a historic drop in support, but no amount of revisionist history can take away from Mr. Carney’s proven record of economic leadership," the Carney team said in response #cdnpoli#cdnelxn https://t.co/aIiLbuncSm
I’ve been watching this announcement, I just have to say that @MarkJCarney is making commitments on housing more substantial than I would have expected.
- Build Canada Homes, a new public agency devoted to building housing directly
- $25B in financing and loan garuntees for pre-fabricated and modular builders
- Halving development charges and taxes for the next 5 years (if @fordnation can match - HUGE)
And talking about the municipal red tape and restrictions on housing, addressing it in language that focuses on generational fairness.
@beynate has clearly been working hard behind the scenes on this.
Not much to say other than WOW. I am very used to being disappointed on housing announcements but not today.
Dr. Margaret Meyer, Mark Carney’s doctoral supervisor, is unequivocal: there is no evidence of plagiarism in his PhD thesis.
Despite this, the American-owned National Post ignored this evidence and ran a story based on the “analysis” of a Conservative donor and activist.

Most of these donations were under $100. Thousands of people are chipping in to help Mark Carney become the next Leader of the Liberal Party.

"Clever, able to speak like a human being, and unwilling to be a lemming, Erskine-Smith is exactly the kind of Liberal that the country needs right now."

I was happy to contribute a quick reaction for The Hub, because this is an important discussion for the Liberal Party of Canada, but mostly so I could call @harrisonlowman "boss" for a day.
