Sure hope Albertans are paying attention to this leadership. Dani says it out loud. In her world the gov shouldn’t be providing services directly. It should be outsourced or privatized.

Not sure those unfamiliar with the geography of Eastern Ontario appreciate how absurd it is Via forced passengers to sleep overnight at the station in Brockville
Brockville is only an hour and a half drive from Ottawa. Via couldn’t get buses to shuttle them back? How is there no contingency plan?

It's not just social media. Looks like visitors to the US from Europe and other countries that are part of the visa waiver program will have to submit an enormous amount of data about themselves and their families, including DNA, if proposed new rules are accepted

The CPC forget about Treaty 6, 7 & 8 that cover the entirety of Alberta.
The Douglas Treaties over BC.

Then 1, 2, & 10 over Manitoba.

Mark NAILS it here.
It's theater to them. They aren't doing any meaningful work to move the government forward. In fact, they actively obstruct progress.
With the AB recalls happening, I'm starting to wonder if there is a federal recall for MPs 🤔
Time for change.

The shift to EVs is happening—fast. Manufacturers can either embrace the long-term transition or chase short-term gains by clinging to petrol and diesel.
China is choosing the long view. Many in Europe aren’t. The risk? Ending up with cars no one wants, lost market share, and shuttered factories.

When compared to price that Canada is already being asked to pay, the cost of walking away from a trade agreement with the US is not so high. Free trade with the US was always a mixed bag. The origina...

In a dangerous and divided world, Canada and Europe are elevating our defence partnership.
That means more access to new equipment for our Armed Forces, more investment in Canada, and massive opportunities for Canadian workers and businesses.
