Pollievre lost his seat. In a night of neo-nazis eating shit, that is the shit-eatingest shit-eating I could have hoped for even before I stopped hoping for good things because it yielded too fucking much disappointment. #canadavotes2025
For all of my Canadian friends --- PLEASE vote today!
There's so much more I want to talk about, but given that this is my first time as a poll worker in Canada, I'll refrain until more than 60 days after the election because that's how long the DRO has to keep their copy of the Statement of Vote in their home.
I sure hope my DRO has a safe.

Things I Learned about Canada's federal elections:
1. Voters are "electors".
2. When you greet an elector, you must say "Hello, bonjour". Unless you are in Quebec, where you would say "Bonjour, hello" instead.
3. It is the job of individual poll workers known as Deputy Returning Officers (DROs) to count the ballots. If a candidate's representative disputes whether a specific ballot is marked for their candidate, it's the DRO who decides whether the objection will stand. 1/ #CanadaVotes2025
Getting ahead of my poll worker training tonight, going forward, I am going to refrain from writing anything else about any of the federal candidates for this year's election. However, depending on what else I learn in training, I might talk about what it was like helping seniors vote in care homes.
My goal would be encouraging everyone who can to consider becoming a poll worker for the next municipal or provincial elections. #CanadaVotes2025
Got a call from Elections Canada yesterday, who asked me if I was still interested in working the federal election as a poll worker and I said yes. They gave me my choice of assignments; I took the one where I'll be going along with one other poll worker to senior care homes to make sure that all of those who are eligible to and want to can cast their ballots.
I'm so glad to be a poll worker again.
Thank you Canada. I will again do my democratic duty and vote for the best candidate, which onviously is not the Maple MAGA party.
Vote early in the Canadian Federal Election until April 22! 
Employers must give you time off to vote. Choose from 500 locations nationwide, often better located, to beat the lines. Don't wait for Easter weekend or Election Day ~ vote the quickest way!

Over 20 years in parliament and 3 as federal leader of the CPC, and Poilievre's vision for Canada is.... ? #cdnpoli #CanadaVotes2025 #neverpoilievre
An existential election so get out the vote!
I nominate the muskox as the symbolic animal of the resistance: when a crisis show up, they rally together into a defensive circle and protect their future generations.
Canada's existential election.
Poilievre is so inflexible that he can't take a minute to be nice to children A position of strength is held by flexibility and listening skills. Imagine him negotiating with Trump, foreign governments, indigenous leaders or the Premiers? #cdnpoli #elxn2025 #neverpoilievre #CanadaVotes2025
Good to know that if you did lead the country, you've be able to quickly and effectively respond to changing events. It's not like we've had any of those lately. #Cdnpoli #NeverPoilievre #CanadaVotes2025
Dear #Australia
Two main choices for #CanadaVotes2025
A financial guru who helped guide Canada/UK through two huge crises
or
PP, with a BA in international relations, who became a snippy little political attack dog for 20+ years [oxymoron?]
The Libs have a star goalie but IDK if PP can skate.
We can go for the Stanley Cup or we can settle for a typical Leafs' season ending [haven't won since 67].
Bookies would give better odds on PP but hopefully that's a sucker bet.
Like Putin, like Trump, so too does Pierre-Harper, every pre-emptive attack is a false flag attack to cover up their own corrupt/fascist admission of guilt to their claim.
Fascist lie: foreign enviro funds are interference
Fascist exposed: they are the recipients of the fascist foreign funds of interference
Chamberlain, Quisling and Benedict Arnold walk into a bar and meet Mike Myer's elbow...
"In fact, we should consider removing family law matters from the courts altogether. These are disputes that could be moved into a specialized administrative system offering both adversarial and non-adversarial dispute resolution alongside:
education
child development
conflict management
social services
housing and employment support
financial and mental health counselling
parenting assessments"
Hear hear! Contact Carney please.
Canada the Compromised.
Call your MP (and Senator?) today and tell them you DEMAND that premiers (and cabinets) must be subject to the CSIS Security Check, and all the high level politicians MUST pass the security clearance with flying colours, or be denied access to any government building and information. Ideally they would be banned from running in an election.
I demand that Danielle Smith, Scott Moe and their cabinet ministers also MUST pass the CSIS Security Clearance or resign!!!!
Stop the Traitor-Cons from camcelling Canada. Today.
