I take issue with Carney showing up there at all. But Trump is absolutely a transformative President. Not in a good way, obviously, but therein lies the genius of the comment: Trump's not bright enough to understand it as anything other than sucking up, despite that not being the meaning.

Thank you. You said CUSMA is currently operating as agreed. Demonstrably false. Just trying to clear up the obvious. Cheers.

"effectively." When one side doesn't stick to the agreement, there is no agreement. Acting like we're going to get some kind of nice deal with the guy already breaking the deal is just silly.

To be clear, it's not due to end; it's effectively already dead.

If we already have a deal, why is the PM going to Washington to negotiate a deal? Because Trump doesn't stick to the deals he makes. CUSMA IS Trump's deal. And it's dead. The relationship is dead for now. We're just getting jerked around. Not sure what you think will be accomplished.

There has been some progress on the Ontario Line, yes. That said, the Eglinton line was nearly done when Ford became Premier. I can't think of anything that has been started and completed in Ford's 8 years, let alone anything completed or improved. Pretty sad given the record spending.

I don't think anyone is suggesting we stop doing business with US businesses and consumers. But thinking that there's any kind of deal to be made with a fascist with no short term memory is a waste of time and makes us look stupid.

We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

Ford changes the laws and breaks the budget to benefit himself and his wealthy friends. And how do Ontarians benefit from 8 years of Ford? What has he accomplished?

Every day it's a new corruption scandal with Ford. So many I can't count them all. Yet name two things Ford has completed in his 8 years as Premier - what has he accomplished other than piles of debt, no housing, broken schools, hospitals and highways. His wealthy backers are wealthier, that's it.

Does a day pass when there isn't a Ford corruption scandal? His debt would make even Trudeau or Harper blush, yet hes built nothing and done nothing in 8 years? Where's all money? In the pockets of his cronies. They win, Ontarians lose.

There are no deals with Trump. Why are we sucking up to a guy who is gassing his own police and crashing his own economy?

Clients of lobby firms connected to premier, his nephew given tens of millions in training funds Groups represented by a lobbying firm owned by the premier’s campaign manager got more than $100 million in grant money, a Trillium analysis has found

Another day, another Ford Conservative corruption scandal. In case Ontarians are wondering where Ford's record breaking debt has gone, now you know: to the donors and lobbyists linked to his campaign and corrupt deals.

Honest question: since these ICE folk are disguised, there's no way to know if they are indeed ICE or just regular violent far-right agitators. So would a response to their violence not be considered "Stand Your Ground"?

Vehicles registered to Ford cabinet ministers caught by speed cameras more than 20 times | Globalnews.ca Documents obtained by Global News reveal that, over three years, vehicles registered to Ford’s cabinet minister received more than $3,300 in fines for speeding.

To be fair, who among us hasn't been caught doing 70 in a 40 when we were running a little late for a ribbon cutting at a new private healthcare clinic or to pick up a bag of donations from real estate developers?

I’m beginning to think the American Left needs to consider a broad β€œdefence in depth” to deal with military deployments/police militarization in American cities

Keep scheduling protests but stop showing up to them

Let the enemy over extend themselves, tire themselves out, grow demoralized

Eglinton Crosstown LRT documents reveal potential plans for opening, possible delays Confidential documents viewed by the Star show that testing of the Crosstown could extend beyond the expected opening date of September.

The Eglinton line was well on its way to being completed when Doug Ford became Premier 7 years ago. Now it's 5 years late and counting. Ford spends record amounts of taxpayer money and makes a lot of announcements, but... Name 2 things Ford has completed. Good luck.
