Why tf does North America allow right turns on red? Was this ever a good idea? So proud of
@TheArdenEnglish for his first collaboration with the CBC!

Andy Le, your family raised a kind & noble soul. Choosing generosity amid such a tragic loss, you honor your family’s memory beautifully. May your parents rest peacefully knowing they raised a man the world so deeply needs right now 💔#LapuLapuDay #filipinocommunity 🇵🇭��

Good luck to everyone who ran.

Who ever wins, every CoV council member next week better be asking questions and making changes so no Vancouverite ever has to wait an hour+ to vote. Ever.

I’m the Canadian who was detained by Ice for two weeks. It felt like I had been kidnapped #Immigration

“The reality became clear: Ice detention isn’t just a bureaucratic nightmare. It’s a business. These facilities are privately owned and run for profit.” https://t.co/XCKXP00ilf

Jesus. This is one of the scariest things a US president has uttered in my lifetime.

Congestion pricing is a policy miracle

Affordable childcare "is a foundational building block of what it means to be Canadian." Yes, it is now until 2031 thanks to this government and should stay that way! Great news for Canadian children and families.

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

Good to have you back.

Our front page today. Happy 181st birthday to Canada's national newspaper.

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

Dear @JustinTrudeau, it’s a pleasure to see you in Brussels.

Canada is one of our most trusted allies.

Our partnership is strong and thriving. We are ready to take it even further ↓ https://t.co/ZYemXUBh5z

I’m in Washington, DC this week to remind Americans that we all benefit from our country’s close ties.

We will continue to be good neighbours to Americans. But we will also protect ourselves from threats.

We will never be the 51st state.

[David Eby @Dave_Eby]

Thankful for the time & that we had the chance to listen to each other's concerns. In particular, I'm glad US officials heard directly from Premiers regarding tariff threats & the "51st state".

We have a lot of shared goals & ground, but Canada will never be the 51st state.

[Craig Baird - Canadian History Ehx @CraigBaird]

It is Black History Month and each day this month I am sharing stories from Canada's Black history.

Today it is the story of Vancouver's Citizen of the Century, Joseph Seraphim Fortes!
In his life, he saved over 100 people from drowning and taught hundreds how to swim.

These are the best ones

[sam @sam_d_1995]

it’s kind of incredible to see a policy that’s so effective that it wins over skeptics literally the first week it goes into effect
