Good job everyone.
Vote like our country depends on it.
Cause it does.
Show the Mango Mussolini that we do love our country.
I am voterated. #CanPol
Dear Canadians, VOTE. It’s your chance to decide if you want Canada to be this beautiful, independent sovereign nation or if you want to become the 51st play toy of Russia’s puppet state.
Choose wisely. #canpol #Canadavotes #Elexn45
Today and every day.

The #CBC At Issue panel discusses last night's #LeadersDebate: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=q59fq-TsEgY&pp=ygUMY2JjIGF0IGlzc3Vl
It was a good debate for #PierrePoilievre, they say, and #MarkCarney showed his inexperience at politics. (FWIW, #Polymarket's odds for a Liberal win went up about 2% at the end of the debate, and then drifted down by the same amount.)
#ChantalHébert points out that if the #CPC were to go up in overall support, that would likely push more NDP/BQ voters to the Liberals in response.
"I think Parliament should be allowed to specify penalties for crimes. I think that’s the kind of decision that properly belongs to elected legislatures, to people who must encounter and answer to the public from time to time, and not exclusively to ephors in ermine."
It's not 'cruel and unusual' to keep multi-murderers in jail for life

Boom! #MarkCarney serves up a smoking fastball on #PierrePoilievre — no way he can handle that — but he smacks it back, straight at Mr. Carney's head.
(Referring of course to Mr. Carney's question about Mr. Poilievre's lack of security clearance, and the latter replying, then bringing up the slowness in dropping #PaulChiang.)
I hear some fash media representatives got violent outside the big Canadian Election debate tonight?
Fascism is at play here, in every country we see these American style tactics, it is Fascism.
Like WWII, ...that Fascism, ....death camps and boots in the face of Humanity Fascism.
The correct answer to whether Canada should give more support is "Yes". Not the right answer from #PierrePoilievre...
And did Mr. Blanchet just say Hamas must be destroyed/defeated? Good for him if so.
I have to say, every time #PierrePoilievre refers to "a fourth term" for the Liberals, it vexes me. The correct term in a #WestminsterSystem is "mandate", not "term".
I got a Conservative flyer saying they’re going to “fix the budget” literally the same day Doug Ford is caught in a massive scandal selling the waterfront to a scam company from Romania 
So I just found out that @revolutionpartycanada is a thing and I may finally have a party I can support and not just begrudgingly tolerate in order to avoid Conservatives.

Hey, RPC, do y'all have a way to get a lawn sign out? I know candidate count is low now, but I desperately need to break up the blue trend in my neighborhood.
"Maintenant que j'ai repris le contrôle de mon compte, je peux dire qu'objectivement, Poilievre a gagné le débat. Oubliez les analyses à 5 cennes qui disent que Carney a gagné parce qu'il ne s’est pas mis à parler chinois en plein milieu du débat. Il faut évaluer les performances selon les objectifs de chaque candidat."

Does anyone really want to argue that Alexandre Bissonnette didn't deserve 40 years without parole, his original sentence? Probably half of Canadians would like him to be hanged.
It's not hard to list crimes that the public thinks deserve stiffer sentences than what the Supreme Court has decided to permit.
2/2
I think that debate about using the notwithstanding clause to overturn R. v. Bissonnette (thereby permitting longer time without parole) is a winning one for Conservatives.
When the debate is an abstract one about Charter rights and judicial vs. parliamentary supremacy, opponents of the #NotwithstandingClause have reasonable arguments to make. But then the proponents will bring up specific crimes and voters will want stiffer penalties.
For instance...

It surprises me that I don't see any criticism of #MarkCarney from the Left on the #Fediverse this morning. I thought he did reasonably well overall at the #DébatDesChefs, but there were a few points that I'd have expected to upset many people around here who follow #CanPol .
I like this...
