Well, I misspoke. Sh*t happens. Lesson learned 🤦‍♀️ … I have always been clear that I supported Jean Charest to stop Pierre Poilievre. Not backing away from that. He’s the most divisive politician we’ve seen in years and I felt it was my duty as a Cdn to stop him in his tracks. I’m thinking carefully about running because he still needs to be stopped. But if we want to do that, our party has to accept change. Sticking with the status quo is a losing strategy.

Christy Clark won a greater share of seats in the 2013 and 2017 provincial elections than any federal Liberal Leader won in B.C. in any election in Canadian history.

Well said.
After a lifetime of public service Justin Trudeau has stepped aside as both Leader of the Liberal Party and Prime Minister of Canada. I want to thank him as a Canadian for his service to the country that he so clearly loves. I wish him and his family well. As a lifelong Liberal I look forward to joining tens of thousands of Canadians to choose our next Leader. This is the biggest opportunity in over a decade that we’ve had to grow our Party and welcome new Liberals - including Canadians concerned about the future of our country - let’s seize it!

A different Supreme Court could have saved Marcellus Williams. All 3 Democratic judges dissented. All 6 majority Republicans approved his execution. Presidents appoint them. Please stop acting like this election doesn't matter. Please stop acting like voting doesn't matter.

My mom called me to tell me that when she passes away, she wants me to have her buried in England because she wants Freddie from #LoveIsBlindUK to be the funeral director. “Might as well have something beautiful to look at. Like my final gift to everyone.” Oh ok, mom.

I’m not saying it has to be the campaign song but the Harris-Walz ticket sure seems like Janet’s prophesy foretold in Rhythm Nation….🤔 #Harris2024

With more abortion bans being implemented infant mortality rate will only increase.

Zero patience for this behavior. Only lunatics are going to end up wanting to go into politics. I’d like to see more cross-partisan solidarity about this kind of thing.
Convoy protester appears to spit on former public safety minister (and current MP) Marco Mendicino. The guy in the red cap in the video is well-known for yelling at MPs and journalists on Parliament Hill. reddit.com/r/themayormcchees…

Thank you, Calgary! We hit a record low in our water use on Saturday at 438 millions of litres per day. Please keep it up. Every drop counts. 🚽 Flush only when needed 🍽️ Wash dishes on full loads only 🚿 Keep showers to 3 mins or less ➡ calgary.ca/16AveWaterMain

If there’s one thing I know about Calgarians, it’s that we know how to handle a crisis. This is hard. But we can do hard things. I know my extraordinary former colleagues at the @cityofcalgary are working around the clock to resolve this and I’m grateful for them as I am for all citizens working hard to save water.
Update June 14: Critical water main break affecting city-wide water usage. The repairs are now estimated to take an additional 3-5 weeks to complete. Following further investigation of our water feedermain, significant additional damage has been found.
