Scroll your @Twitter feed this morning. If *everyone* you follow is saying the same things about #Vote2020 you’re doing it wrong. Build a balanced virtual newspaper. Follow Trump and Biden supporters. Left and right media. A wide variety of opinions paint the complete picture.

It’s remarkable how absent any real message of healthy living (diet/exercise/outdoors) has been from public health communications during the pandemic.

People who are overweight or obese are at a much higher risk of much more severe disease and even death from Covid-19 -- and one new study suggests that losing weight can reduce that risk.

Early observation on the @CPC_HQ leadership race: it feels like a lot of the social media content is created by people who don’t really know the candidates (yet). The result? Posts that feel disconnected from the person. Reminder, authenticity is what matters most. #cdnpoli

This is one of the best contrast ads I’ve ever seen. Can be risky to put your own candidate next to the sharpest attacks, but it really works. cc @DeeEhRosenberg and @TheHerleBurly

Small but important advice for all ⁦ @CPC_HQ ⁩ leadership candidates: run your own social accounts. Get help, but make sure it’s your voice and your style. Let voters get to know you. Ditch the canned lines and fake authenticity. #cdnpoli

This is a mistake of epic proportions for @theJagmeetSingh . Accept an open riding on your home turf as what it is: an unexpected gift. Awkward to change plans? Yes, but so what. It’s completely understandable given rarity of by-election opportunities. #cdnpoli

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh is sticking to his plan to run in the British Columbia riding of Burnaby South, even after the sudden resignation of a Liberal MP in Brampton creates an opening on his former home turf.

Campaigns are about big moments. Most voters don’t pay attention to day to day, just big things that punch through (debates, major announcements, scandals). This is a moment. Maybe, THE moment of 2019. Cuts against everything brand @JustinTrudeau claims to be. #cdnpoli
