Are Carney's remarks directed at Ford or at Trump? We will never know.
Q: Are you upset at Premier Ford for running this ad?

PM Carney: In any complicated, high-stakes negotiation, you can get unexpected twists and turns, and you have to keep your cool during those situations. It doesn't pay to be upset—emotions don't carry you very far.

Wow! 12 days in the last 3 months. Actually Trump is running the country anyway.
Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
I know I will remember.
The 37 ballroom donors won’t be remembered for generosity, but for funding a monument to authoritarian vanity during a shutdown, at a venue nicknamed after a sex trafficker, while Americans wonder how they’ll eat. History keeps receipts & their names aren’t coming off those walls
Exactly!
Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.
The good news is those dollars presently going to the USA can go to buy cars from Europe and Japan. Canadians have choices. Just got to make different choices.
Did you know, at present, about half of all vehicles purchased in Canada are made in the United States.

That means half the money Canadians spend on cars — tens of billions of dollars every year — leaves our economy to fuel someone else’s.

Certainly. The difference is if the Democrats were to do anything about the Trumps there would be open civil war. Easy to pretend not to see the corruption.
Anyone paying attention to important economic indicators like unemployment numbers? That is because Trump does not want you to know. He controls the numbers.

See... all the distractions work.

Trump’s recent obsession with Venezuela is increasingly looking like a shake down for oil & rare earth minerals.

It has little to do with drug boats.

The tech bros have him in a tizzy over rare earth minerals needed for next gen tech.

It’s why he wanted Greenland.

If you're considering a run for president in 2028 your highest priority needs to be fighting to ensure that the midterm election is free and fair.

There's no 2028 without a legitimate 2026 where the results are respected. Something I pray that everyone with presidental ambitions understands.

building a giant golden ballroom while cutting SNAP has very Marie Antoinette vibes.

I don't understand how anyone can make the case that we still have constitutional government at this point. The president is collecting revenue *AND* spending money without Congressional authorization, refusing to spend money that Congress appropriated, disobeying whatever laws he feels like.
