- Reposted by patatasThis is such a good rundown of the valid reasons we should be wary of Carney and that Davos speech. He’s not going to save us, and I’m still not convinced he’s any better than Poilievre. Read the article and you’ll understand why.
- New, from me: The Value Of Our Fear: PM Mark Carney is using Canadians’ fear of Trump’s expansionism to quietly sell us out to his true allies: US finance & tech oligarchs. thedabbler.patatas.ca/pages/value-... fair warning, it’s a long one. Enjoy, hopefully? #CdnPoli
