Glad to see my Minister of Finance, Nate Horner, being properly compensated with $1.65 MILLION taxpayer dollars for the drought conditions affecting his ranch.

To the rest of Alberta farmers also affected by the drought, you don't get anything, but keep voting conservative!

What a waste of money. Conservatives like to spend our money on slogans for their propaganda machine.

If Carney permits this, Canada is screwed!
Carney will lose all support, and then we'll end up with a right-wing maple-maga nutjob as prime minister.

California just banned employers from forcing workers to pay a debt, fee, or penalty to leave their job.

Bosses have increasingly been trapping workers with debts incurred in training and other exploitative fees.

Now that's illegal in the nation's biggest state.

Canada Post is exactly the type of nation-building project Mark Carney was elected to carry out. Instead, the lucrative parcel market is being given to fly-by-night operators who exploit burnout-track employees, compromise our safety and pollute the air.

To Carney, "Elbows up" means buying American jets, building a pipeline to sell our oil to the US, joining a US missile defence system, opening our markets to more American dairy, and kissing the American president's ass at every opportunity.

This is what you voted for, is it?

Carney selling out our digital sovereignty just to provide OpenAI with cheap electricity and water would be phenomenally stupid

Social Media Lab @socialmedialab.ca · 2d
Canada has a long history of being surprisingly provincial. However, relinquishing digital sovereignty without a fight represents a strategic misstep in the broader project of nation-building, as technological autonomy increasingly shapes economic security, cultural identity, & political legitimacy.

Mark Carney #Liberals oppose democratic elections. Democracy is defined as “Government by all of the people.” Canada’s voting system gives many voters less power in government decision making, or none at all. Proportional Representation is the answer, but Liberals don’t want equal power for all.
