On March 27, Bank of China donates medical supplies (including 30000 medical masks, 10000 sets of protective clothing, 10000 goggles and 50000 pairs of gloves, followed by N95 medical masks) to Canada fighting against COVID-19. We are together!
Thé Prime Minister of New Zealand hitched a ride with Canada to NYC for the UN general assembly
Here she is meeting with members of the Canadian delegation.
Last night Canadians tuned in and CBC won the night on all platforms, with record numbers on digital, and peaking at almost 2 million viewers on TV. Thank you for spending the night with us and for trusting us to deliver on such an important night. 🔥🔥🔥
Worth noting: Conservative MP Rachael Thomas (née Harder) on Monday in the House of Commons said "many Canadians" hold the view that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau fits the definition of a dictator. She did not cite a poll.
Trudeau: we will list the IRGC and the leadership under the most powerful part of the Immigration and Refugee Act. This will make the top 50% of the leadership inadmissible to Canada. This is a permanent decision. 10k members of the leadership will be banned from Canada.
As just reported by

the leadership of the Liberals and the NDP have reached a tentative agreement that would see the NDP support the Liberal govt and keep it in power until 2025 in exchange for movement on key NDP priorities, CBC News has learned.

while he hosted election night. Tonight I get to sit here myself. It’s a big deal and I could not be happier to guide you through the night with the best in the business.
An incredible team of producers, crew and journalists put together that election special. I hope you watched. I hope we delivered. There is nothing I like doing more than covering a story that matters to all of you. And politics is just my jam. More tomorrow.
A man getting his first vaccine at a vaccine clinic in Ottawa just told the PM he's finally getting it because he realized he "can't do shit" until he gets it.
Ontario will begin offering AZ to people 40 and older as of Tuesday. This comes hours after the provincial govt wrong suggested it was up to the federal govt to make that change. It was not.

on Thursday questioned Kentucky Senator Rand Paul about his objection to an attempt to quickly pass a bill ensuring the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund never runs out of money. Here is video of their exchange.
This is not factual.
The protests in Ottawa were cleared starting Friday after invoking the Emergencies act. The Windsor border was cleared before the EA. You can debate whether it was needed but good to start from a position of facts.
After clearing the protests in Ottawa and blockades at the borders BEFORE implementing the Emergencies Act.
Liberals forced a confidence motion on the EA on a Monday night.
Announced a revocation of the EA on a Wednesday afternoon.
It’s time for an inquiry.

Public Health has released CLEARER language about who can go for a walk outside: You can go for a walk if you: have not been diagnosed with COVID-19;
do not have symptoms of COVID-19; have not travelled outside of Canada in the past 14 days.
Media is ramping up a campaign to protect Trudeau from accountability sessions. They know he can’t handle tough questions. He left the borders open to 2000 people from COVID hotspots & giving away our medical stockpiles. No wonder he is hiding from questions.
An update on Sophie Grégoire-Trudeau’s health, we are told she still has mild flu-like symptoms and headaches. PM still doing well health-wise as are the Trudeau kids.
Hi Stan, I do appreciate the feedback. I'm from Manitoba. We should totally grab a coffee next time I'm there. You sound like a lot of fun. A total gentleman. Thanks for watching.

Is it true that
@RosieBarton
gets her clothes off a dead clown? Are you not paying her enough money? BTW, her laugh sounds more like a cackle and it is really annoying. The other three hosts are quite good and professional, especially Ms. Arsenault.
I was just at the coffee shop where the young employees were all standing around closely together. Don’t do this. Spread out. Find space. This is not a test. (And yes I told them this).
I have never received so many tweets and emails from all of you looking for information and help. Reading all them. Doing my best to get you answers with the help of all my colleagues. Hang in there.
“They met every day to coordinate their coverage”. With all due respect to the former Prime Minister this is untrue. As are many other claims here. It’s too bad time has not allowed for a more nuanced analysis of the results.
Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson wants the NBA champion Toronto Raptors to skip the traditional White House visit and head to Parliament Hill instead. He's tweeted at PM Justin Trudeau, suggesting an invite should be issued. Background:
Any politician worth his salt would have known of that anniversary. I don't care what you tweet. I do care that you won't answer questions about. I report facts based on what people say and tweet. The interview request stands and we can clear this all up. Any time you like.
Whether or not I give interviews, your job is to report facts, not unfounded and calumnious speculation. You admit you have no idea if there was a connection. I tweet almost every day and was not even aware of this event in the US. You are biased and unprofessional.
PMJT: yes, it was upsetting to see the pandemic turn some people towards fury and anger and against government and science. But that won't define our country.
1/2 A lot of people on Twitter complain of its toxicity. I don’t find it toxic at all. One solution is not to follow toxic people, or people who retweet toxic people. Another is to refuse to get into arguments on Twitter. Ever. With anyone. Period.
PM says as a Catholic, he is "deeply disappointed" by the response of the Catholic Church in their resistance to release documents, and participate in the process of truth and healing. "We expect the church to take responsiblity for its role in this". We are still waiting.
PM says his wife Sophie and kids have gone to Harrington lake. He will remain in isolation because he was living with someone who was still showing symptoms just a few days ago.
PM: we have worked tirelessly for the past 2.5 years to get them home. Want to highlight the work done by diplomats including our ambassador in getting the men out.
New Zealand prime minister Jacinda Ardern confirms Easter Bunny is classed as an “essential worker” but it might be “difficult for the bunny to get everywhere” in current circumstances.
Tooth fairy also confirmed as an essential worker.
Dr Tam confirms more than a million years have now happened in Canada. 6% have tested positive. Now doing about 25k tests daily. Reminder there is a hope to reach 60k.
The Conservative Party will always oppose a carbon tax – because we know the real cost it imposes on real people. We are working hard to promote real ideas, like investing in green technology – not taxes, to protect the environment.
Min Hajdu said something that I’m still thinking about today. She called again on people to stay home to protect themselves and others. And if we do it the govt won’t have to fine us arrest us + order us to stay in. It protects our civil liberties and our health was her point.
Senior govt source says the Prime Minister Trudeau has just spoken to President Zelensky about the attack and fire at a nuclear power plant in Ukraine.
"We're just having a bit of an earthquake here": New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern barely skipped a beat when a quake struck during a live TV interview.
How do we you didn't time to coincide with that anniversary given you won't give any interviews to anyone about anything you tweet? How about you answer some questions and defend your position in front of people then we can talk about what is fake. Thanks for watching.

Just saw this report which implies a “timing” between my tweets last Sunday and some violent demonstration in the US. How do you know that I “chose to send (my) messages on the first anniversary of the riots in Charlottesville”
@CBCTheNational
? This is despicable.

PM says he too is frustrated to not see vaccines administered faster. Will discuss with Premiers on Thursday how the federal govt can help get it done faster.
Premier Kenney says they have accepted support from Canadian Armed Forces, Canadian Red Cross and after rejecting support from Newfoundland, Alberta has now decided to accept it.
