The man accused of burning down a historic St. Thomas building on the weekend was a “prolific” offender who was out on bail for more than a dozen charges. He was also on probation for another arson. This has to stop.
Disappointing, yet unsurprising. Carney's Public Safety Minister is completely out of the loop on basic firearm safety requirements. Watch the latest episode of the Blueprint: Canada's Conservative Podcast with @AndrewLawton below: youtube.com/watch?v=3zjtgW…
Yup. Violent criminals are back on the streets in hours. Antisemitic mobs block traffic, intimidate families, and trash businesses with zero consequences. Meanwhile, the Crown wants 7 and 8-year prison sentences—over a non-violent protest from 3 years ago. If the Crown suddenly…
The prosecution of @LichTamara and @ChrisBarber1975 has been excessive and vindictive. The Crown is seeking a seven year sentence (eight for Chris) for a three-week peaceful protest almost three and a half years ago. All while violent offenders are given slaps on the wrist.
At this juncture, they'd probably be better off they were temporary residents:

Let’s get this straight: while rampant violent offenders are released hours after their most recent charges & antisemitic rioters vandalize businesses, terrorize daycares & block traffic without consequences, the Crown wants 7 years prison time for the charge of mischief for Lich…
Any day spent with puppies is a good day! Great turnout at this year’s Pawsitively Elgin Dog Festival.
SHOCKING. Global News revealed Liberal Vaccine Injury Program blew $35 million on consultant fees while a majority of the cases still aren't processed. THEN: Liberals shutdown Conservative attempts to summon Health Committee about this. What are they hiding? @MBDan7…
Thank you for this statement on the First Ave. CN rail crossing, @joeprestonmayor. My office has been working on this as well as CN falls under federal jurisdiction. Despite CN telling one constituent that this was a municipal issue, they have never communicated this position to…
We hear you, St. Thomas. The Mayor has issued a statement addressing concerns about the railway crossing on First Avenue, clarifying responsibilities and outlining the steps we’re taking to get it fixed. It’s a team effort, and we’re pushing for progress.🤝 #TheRailwayCity
False.
No one is taking guns from competing sports shooters, you fat fuck.
That thud you just heard was the prime minister’s elbows hitting the floor.
Canada has some of the best sport shooters in the world. They are competitors, not criminals. I enjoyed watching and meeting with participants of the @IPSCWorld Ontario Handgun Provincials at my home gun club, the East Elgin Sportsmen’s Association.
The Liberals put $50 million away to compensate vaccine injured Canadians. So far, the consultants have pocketed $34 million and the vaccine injured received only $16 million. And less than half of the claims have even been processed! This is a complete breach of trust.
BREAKING NEWS Conservatives are calling for an investigation into the Liberal government's $50 MILLION Vaccine Injury Support Program contract. The Liberals awarded a $50 MILLION contract to a high-priced consultant with no apparent expertise in handling health-related claims.…
It was a pleasure to attend the Multicultural Festival at Covent Garden Market in downtown London! 🌎🎉 An incredible celebration of the cultures, traditions, and people that make our community so vibrant and strong. Thank you to the organizers, performers, and vendors for…
A small town's worth of people illegally crossed the border into Canada from the United States in just a few days. The Liberals allowed them to claim asylum. They will be able to claim taxpayer funded benefits and get health care. Liberal border management at its finest.
I enjoyed catching up with @ianscityscope to discuss crime and the urgent need for bail reform. ianscityscope.com/2025/07/12/a-s…
The latest tariff threats are another unjustified attack on Canada’s economy. Canada has long been a reliable partner and trusted friend to the United States. These tariffs will damage both our countries. All Canadians must come together to defend our economy. Conservatives…
Soo.....Carney canceled the DST to get <checks notes> a tariff increase to 35%? Harvard business case study in negotiating right there. 👏🏻
Trump threatens a 35% Canada tariff, up from the current two-tiered rate of 10% and 25%. The letter is silent on whether current exclusions for USMCA-compliant trade will be extended.
