Carney's record so far?
- Capitulation on first big stand-off w/Trump
- Border bill with major rights & privacy issues
- A new law that spits on Indigenous rights
- Another bill giving political parties immunity from privacy rights
Poilievre would probably be doing worse, but that ain't saying much.
Because Drumpf used the excuse of our border to hit us with tariffs, Carney folded & hasn't stopped folding.
Maybe we'll get a trade/defence agreement out of it, with Drumpf's worthless signature. Why would we want the golden dome idiocy or trade with them?

Alberta announcing tax cuts is a death knell for our public institutions like education and healthcare - another blatant push to blow it all up in order to push for privatization. But most Albertans cannot link the two, unaware of division of powers. They'll still blame Trudeau.

A First Nation leader from northern Ontario had a warning for the federal government Tuesday at a protest over Bill 5, the federal government’s proposed national project-building legislation.

Realize there’s a lot going on but if bill C5 gets through intact, after all the inquiries and reports and apologies, Canada is just stomping on Indigenous people again in the name of keeping white people safe and there’s a name for that type of country.

Whatever your personal beliefs on Assisted Dying, we should all be able to agree on 2 fundamentals:
No means no. If a patient doesn’t want it, end of discussion.
It should never be offered in lieu of care or social supports.
If it is, it’s not compassion.
It’s eugenics 🧵
The second component of this bill, Carney says, enables the federal government to "identify and expedite nation-building projects."
Two very big, separate topics in one bill. Two massive pieces of legislation in one week.

Good and bad news here. Good--more people reporting abusive workplaces. The abuse is not new, but more people reporting it. Bad--Canada's TFW program continues to be exploitative, precarious, abusive. We need more protections for people in this program incl. the freedom to seek other employment.

“Alberta is a place soaked in self-deception.” Alberta's politicians have been fueling baseless grievance politics for decades and Albertans eat it up like candy. "The record shows that, since the mid-1970s, Ottawa has facilitated and supported the oilsands sector."
No one should dispute the National Energy Program’s devastating impact on Alberta’s conventional oil and gas sector 40 years ago.
But the oilsands, not conventional oil, propelled Canada to its position as the world’s fourth-largest oil producer.
