Investment in the Arts is a meaningful investment in ourselves... 🍁
“A new report from the Canadian Chamber of Commerce says every dollar the government invests in the arts generates $29 in economic activity.
…the arts and culture sector contributed $65 billion to the economy last year.”
That is a solid return on investment.

But here’s the thing — the budget isn’t about spending.
It’s about investing.
You don’t grow stronger by standing still,
and you don’t build resilience by cutting corners.
Carney’s plan isn’t reckless — it’s strategic.

Pierre Poilievre's own MPs wouldn't defend his reckless comments, so he tried to backtrack.
When that didn't work, he just pretended it never happened.

We often forget or take for granted what we have in Canada. If I may, I would also add two other plusses:
🍁 A woman's right to manage her own health care, including reproductive care; and
🍁 An independent judiciary.

Far more worrying for me than any specifics, is the tone of "my political opponent should be in jail" that PP is importing from South of the border. But I guess none of these right-wingers have any positive policy ideas to put forward - just astro-turfed hatred and division.
Mini-Trump wants the "despicable" RCMP to jail Justin Trudeau.
When PP was in government we had:
Fraud king Arthur Porter-jailed
Pm chief of staff Bruce Carson-jailed
Del Maestro-jailed
Nigel Wright-$90,000 secret pay out.
btw, who directed Pierre Poutine?
Putting the con in conservative

Middle East crisis – live updates
Spain’s prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, has stepped up his scathing criticism of Israel’s actions in Gaza, accusing Benjamin Netanyahu’s government of “exterminating a defenceless people” by bombing hospitals and “killing innocent boys and girls with hunger”.
Speaking on Monday morning to announce a raft of measures designed to increase the pressure on Netanyahu to stop the military campaign, Sánchez said that while the Spanish government would always support Israel’s right to exist and to defend itself, it felt compelled to try to “stop a massacre”.
