🚨 #BREAKING “Race to Replace” is a new 8-week limited podcast series from Air Quotes Media – creators of @CurseOfPolitics, @TheHerleBurly and @HotelPacificoBC – that chronicles the Liberal Party of Canada leadership campaign to decide who becomes Canada's next Prime Minister.

Dear @AndrewScheer. I’m gay. I’m about to marry my partner of 10yrs. We may have kids. Neither I, my partner, or our relationship are akin to a dog’s tail. You’ve continued to vote against major #LGBTQ rights since this. Please try to learn. #cdnpoli.

Trudeau cut income taxes TWICE. In Budgets voted against by the Conservative Party of Canada. There has been no cut to provincial income taxes in almost two decades. But yes it’s Liberals you can’t trust on this. #cdnpoli #onpoli.

So I believe this would make @JustinTrudeau the first G7 leader to meet face to face with President-elect Trump since the election. But we are told by the pundit and political class he’s weak. Am I getting that right?. We have some of the dumbest political discourse. #cdnpoli.
Canadian PM Justin Trudeau has arrived in West Palm Beach, Florida, and is due to meet President-Elect Trump tonight at Mar-a-Lago.

Justin Trudeau’s legacy is a solid one. Consequential but controversial. But a solid one. — CPP bigger.— CCB ⬇️ child poverty.— TMX ✅ and LNG Canada supported.— One of best COVID responses in G7.— CUSMA.— Key investments in AI + ZEVs. And much of that will endure. #cdnpoli.

It just occurred to me but with the change in Ministry in 🇫🇷 a few weeks ago, @cafreeland is now the Dean of the G7 Finance Ministers as the longest serving current head of economic policy in the developed world. And 🇨🇦’s first female finance minister. Congrats. #cdnpoli.

This is unhinged. Regardless of who is our leader now or in the future - all Canadians should stand up for Team Canada when attacked by those who wish to do us harm for their own interests.
The only person to be mad at for Trump's 25% tariff is TRUDEAU. Instead of pushing his WOKE agenda and dancing at Taylor Swift concerts he could have actually done his job and SECURED OUR BORDER. Trump is actually protecting his country unlike our incompetent Prime Minister

Under @JustinTrudeau 🇨🇦 has AAA credit rating, declining debt to GDP ratio that is the best in G7 and a “sustainable” fiscal path over the long term as judged by the Parl Budget Officer. We can disagree about fiscal policy but the blatant rejection of facts has to stop. #cdnpoli.
Justin Trudeau has spent the cupboard bare. His reckless spending and debt are putting Canadians in harm’s way.

I teach at UofT so I’m a CUPE member. I’m also not a right winger and I love unions. Fred Hahn is vile. On Oct 7 - the day Israelis were murdered - he tweeted “Palestine is rising”. War must end & get hostages back. But Hahn isn’t entitled to a platform for hate.#cdnpoli.
Right-wingers calling for Fred Hahn to resign are, surely, committed to a consistent belief that people can and should be canceled for exercising their speech rights. I’m sure they won’t turn around and defend one of their own for saying something controversial.

Considering that Canada was in a recession mid way through 2015 and has come out of it creating 1,000,000+ jobs and lifting 825,000 people out of poverty since @JustinTrudeau took office — the answer most definitely is YES. #cdnpoli.

Over a 10 year period 80% of taxpayers NEVER generate a capital gain ever. Of 20% who do, avg is $5,200. And number who would actually hit $250,000 for cap gains alone would be about 1-2% (of the 20%). This doesn’t cover corps but you get a very clear sense — impact is narrow.

This kind of unnecessary gaslighting is part of the toxicity in #cdnpoli today. Justin Trudeau hasn’t “profited” from student loans. In fact he’s TRIPLED Canada Student Grants in the last 6 years. 2015: up to $2,000.2021: up to $6,000. Do better. #Elxn44.
Since coming to power, Trudeau has profited off of student debt, to the tune of nearly $4 billion in interest payments. I would immediately remove interest from the federal student loans. What would it mean to you if interest were removed?. Text and let me know 👉🏽 613-801-8210.

If we can’t agree that a former Governor General who was appointed and served faithfully under two different parties, and is a leading Canadian lawyer and scholar, is anything but ably qualified as an eminent and independent person — we should all give up. #cdnpoli.
The huffy reaction in certain quarters to any questioning of the Johnston appt is revealing. Where the subject to be investigated includes the conduct of the PM, it is the PM's responsibility — at a minimum — to appoint someone w/ whom he has no personal or prof'l connections. .

This would be funny but for the fact Doug Ford has not cut income taxes for the middle class in the 6 years he and you have been in government. Justin Trudeau did it 2x: once in 2015, and again in 2019. 2 > 0. #cdnpoli.

Telesat’s Lightspeed network is also about building dedicated capacity to run the satellite networks of the Canadian Armed Forces. I’d much prefer that not be run by someone like Elon Musk, personally. Just a thought. And I’d also prefer MPs and commentators do some research.
The lack of critical thought on this, especially from an MP many think could lead the post-Trudeau Liberals, is astounding. Why buy the F35 from @LockheedMartin and not have @Bombardier build us a fighter aircraft?. Why not support @PotentialMotors and 🇨🇦 companies like it to.

As a young gay man, first coming to grips with my identity during the same sex marriage debate, your bravery & courage to live who you are was a major inspiration & sign of hope. Thank you for all that you’ve done to make 🇨🇦 better place. For Canadians from all corners of life.
I would like to share an important family decision: I’ve informed the Prime Minister of my decision to not seek re-election in 2019. As such, I’ve decided to step down from my role as President of the Treasury Board and will work with the PM to ensure a smooth transition.

As we close this week, a big thank you to the many public servants working tirelessly to help 🇨🇦 pulls through this. Working remotely they are going flat out, every day, to deliver the medical supplies, the income benefits, and the business supports we need right now. #cdnpoli.

It's been just under 48 hours since Moody's reaffirmed Canada's Aaa credit rating, with STABLE outlook, following #Budget2024 . Funny how nobody covers this. Not 1 article I can find. Not even in biz press @BNNBloomberg. But we get a daily diet of polls and punditry. #cdnpoli

Facts are facts. Researchers to release new book showing @JustinTrudeau fulfilled 92% of promises in full or in part. Highest % of any govt in 35yrs. Better is always possible and there’s more to do. But let’s keep moving forward. #cdnpoli #realchange.

Banned by Putin 🇷🇺:. — Trudeau and most of Canada’s senior government officials. Not banned by Putin 🇷🇺:. — Modi and his government. I think it’s clear who is on the right side here. #cdnpoli

At first @PierrePoilievre appears confused to find out 2021 @CPC_HQ platform said it would “review” (p 154) not defund CBC. Then, when challenged, he flips to indignant. Then he ends with - but of course what I say is what @erinotoole thinks. #cdnpoli.
