Thank you, #JustinTrudeau. #GoodSense again prevails in Canadian policy.
What I am taking from today's #QuestionPeriod: the Canadian economy is Roaring while #PierrePolievre is Boring and the #Liberals are Scoring. #JustinTrudeau and his #GoodSense housing policy is building homes for middle class and lower income folks across the country.

A quotation from Milne, A. A.:

«
“Rabbit,” said Pooh to himself. “I like talking to Rabbit. He talks about sensible things. He doesn’t use long, difficult words, like Owl. He uses short, easy words, like ‘What about lunch?’ and ‘Help yourself, Pooh.'”

A principle I shared today with one of the saints: Anyone affected by a potential decision should be, at minimum, consulted before it's taken. Good sense and biblical.

Mine never left me at all. My sense of poor taste has always been pretty bad, though. #PoorTaste #Brotherhood #GoodSense
