Conservative Premier Designate Lorne Doerkson's victory in BC is a political earthquake.

[Lorne Doerkson @LDoerkson]

Thank you, British Columbia.

Tonight, you voted for change. You voted for a government that will listen, keep life affordable, and never take your hard-earned money for granted.

I want to thank every volunteer who knocked on doors, made calls, and put up signs in the rain. I want to thank our candidates, who stepped forward in a snap election with no time to spare. And I want to thank my wife Shelley and my family for standing beside me every step of the way.

To those who didn’t vote for us: I will work just as hard for you. This is your government too.

The work starts now. Let’s get to it.

Fact Check do Estadão:

"Flavio afirmou que 40 milhões de brasileiros não têm água potável".

Estadão: "FALSO, número real é 34 milhões".

"Lula afirmou que nunca se exportou tanto quanto no governo dele".

Estadão: "VERDADEIRO, mas em números absolutos e não corrigidos pela inflação. Se corrigir pela inflação perde para o Bolsonaro".

Essa gente é criminosa!

Pra quem não sabe o Tarcísio tem a maior nota da história do curso de Engenharia Civil do Instituto Militar de Engenharia (IME, um dos vestibulares mais difíceis da América Latina), onde se formou em 2002.

O futuro é verde e amarelo 🇧🇷

Campanha de Flávio Bolsonaro convida ex-mulher de Janones para o debate da Globo.

Ela tem uma medida protetiva contra Janones, o que impediria o parlamentar de ir até a emissora.

JUST IN: Mark Carney basically said out loud its OKAY to erase English Canada's culture.

He told reporters today that when its comes to English Canadian provinces getting more immigration powers: "We'll see"

BUT

Goes on to say: "Quebec is distinct, it's unique because of its culture, its language and other aspects of its nature."

So IT gets to keep its immigration powers.

CHEGA DE CENSURA INSTITUCIONALIZADA CONTRA NOVOS CANDIDATOS!

Testemunhamos nestas eleições um dos maiores absurdos eleitorais da história brasileira: a restrição das redes sociais de candidatos durante a campanha eleitoral. Essa medida sufocou a comunicação política e penalizou desproporcionalmente as candidaturas com menor capacidade financeira, que não possuem recursos para impulsionamento constante de postagens, o que acaba por violar os princípios da isonomia e da proporcionalidade no pleito.

Por isso apresentei este projeto com o objetivo de proibir expressamente a censura na forma de shadowban nas redes sociais dos candidatos durante o período eleitoral.

Com ele, garantiremos que os perfis e conteúdos dos candidatos possam ser exibidos regularmente nos mecanismos de busca e recomendados também para não seguidores nas plataformas.

The Left won’t stop stealing elections

In Canada, a NDP (New Democratic Party) volunteer was caught “bringing a group of 30-40 people without identification” to a polling station to vote

“A bus came. He was asking them vote for the New Democratic Party in front of the booth which is illegal. The people he brought has confessed that they are voting for New Democratic Party”

NDP is the New Democratic Party which is a left-wing social democratic political party in Canada

Liberals are the same everywhere. They steal elections

I've lived in the same apartment building in Tokyo for 11 years.

I know zero names.

That's normal here. We nod in the elevator. We do not speak.

Then Mike moved in on the third floor.

Ohio. Six-foot-four. Laughs like a truck starting up.

Day 1: He knocked on every door with a plate of cookies.
(In Japan, when you move in, you give your neighbors a small towel. Then you leave. Mike gave cookies. Then he stayed and talked.)

Week 1: He knew everyone's name. Including the dog's.

Then there was Mrs. Sato on the first floor.

She's 84. Her husband passed away ten years ago. She lives alone.

In 11 years, I had never heard her voice.

Every Tuesday, Mike carried her groceries up the steps. She didn't speak English. He didn't speak Japanese.

They talked anyway. Mostly about the photo of her husband by the door.

Then one morning, her curtains stayed closed.

Mike noticed.

Nobody else did. I didn't.

He knocked. No answer. He called the building manager.

She had fallen the night before. She'd been on the floor all night.

She's okay now.

But the building isn't the same.

People say good morning. The elevator has conversations.

Last month, we had our first rooftop potluck. Nobody knew what a potluck was. Mike explained it twice.

Mrs. Sato brought 40 rice balls.

And then she laughed at something Mike said.

That was the first time I ever heard her voice.

Mike moved back to Ohio this week.

On his last morning, the whole building came down to the lobby. Kids. Grandparents. The dog.

Mrs. Sato handed him a box.

Inside: one thousand paper cranes.

In Japan, you fold a thousand cranes for someone you want to protect. Her hands shake. She had been folding them since the day he found her.

Then she said the English sentence she had practiced every day for a week.

"Please... come back."

Mike was crying too hard to answer in English.

So he answered in the Japanese he had been secretly practicing.

"Kanarazu kaette kimasu."

In Japanese, that doesn't mean "I'll visit."

It's what you say when you're coming home.

#REPORT: The BC Conservatives have filed a complaint against the BC NDP after David Eby's party allegedly sent out campaign literature disguised as "voting information" from Elections BC, in which they spread misinformation about Conservative healthcare policies.

[Northern Perspective @NorthrnPrspectv]

🚨 THIS IS THE END 🚨

David Eby sent out a letter to voters that looked like it came from Elections BC. Now allegations of cheating are being filed by the BC Conservatives.

Between that, his former finance minister slamming him, and disgracefully invoking Wainright...surely this is the end for him.
