As Europe rearms, Canada has what it needs. That can be the basis of a post-NATO alliance cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-al CBC by Evan Dyer - A potential new defence production partnership with the EU. We lack infrastructure “But common investments, joint ventures of #European investors and #Canada could be a way out.”
Set up factories to make munitions, tanks, anything the #EU needs. Each #Canadian job lost- should be trained to build military defenses. #cdnpoli #CanadianDefence #trustedtoserve

CBCANALYSIS | As Europe rearms, Canada has what it needs. That can be the basis of a post-NATO alliance | CBC NewsThe Canadian government has turned to Europe in search not only of new trade partners, but also hoping to firm up support against the annexation threats coming from the United States. But what can Canada offer in return? And what might such an alliance look like?

Canadian MP Charlie Angus joins global call to avoid the United States due to security risks posed to foreign civilians and Trump's ongoing ICE Ethnic Cleansing operation: "I am here today to urge Canadians to avoid travel to the United States if at all possible." #cdnpoli

Hey #Canada
I live in a riding where traditionally a sack of spuds could get elected on the Con ticket.
My vote might not change the outcome but I will not squander it.

I will ensure that my vote sends a clear message to the world:
- I reject everything that right-wingers like Prem Smith, PP and 47 stand for
- I respect all people
- Canada remains a reliable ally and trading partner to all democracy-loving countries
- #CanadaStrong for ever

Continued thread

I just trolled around the four English party websites.
I will avoid completing their address so one doesn’t get previewed but here they are fyi:

Conservative. Ca
Liberal. Ca
NDP. Ca
Green Party.Ca

Interesting differences.

The #cpc have no candidates listed. Only messages from Dear Leader, and it’s sparse. Mostly just his transcribed words. The ironic part is I have seen door hangers for the CPC candidate in my riding, but no idea what his name is. If it is anything like the provincial election, I expect MASSIVE CPC signage in my riding. It didn’t work provincially… we’ll see what happens now.

The #LPC have many candidates listed and ready, lots of content. No one mentioned for my riding. (They are not generally a contender)

The #NDP has almost all candidates listed but ironically, not mine even though I just received a sign, but the site is ready with similarly lots of content.

The #GPC has only a handful of candidates, but our local candidate @chrismarkevich is listed.

With such an incredibly short campaign there will not be much time for parties to fill out the details. No doubt everyone will be hyper focused on GOTV efforts. Advance voting will begin in just a couple weeks!

Edit: just counted candidates on each page.
CPC: 0
LPC: 185
NDP: 111
GPC: 80
There are 343 ridings.

I can’t help but think back to the election in the last year. The desire to maintain what was in the face of whatever the fuck the is becoming seems inevitable. Yes other countries may not have the insane campaign finance “laws” /sham the US has but if the US hasn’t radicalized you against billionaires I don’t know what the hell is left to convince you
