Watching Kate Harrison’s BS on Power & Politics right now and I honestly think my head might explode. She’s talking about the evils of trading with China - as if the USA is some kind of utopia.
Are you f*cking kidding me?

We already trade with China. Harper signed a 31 yr deal in 2014.
She isn't well informed and seems to blame PM Carney instead of Trump...ugh!

YouTube video by Senator Paula Simons CBC stays on X to reach audiences despite hate speech concerns - but isn't on Bluesky or Mastodon.

The CBC maintains an account on X - but not on Bluesky (nor on Mastodon.) Why? I asked CE0 Marie-Philippe Bouchard and Editor-in-Chief @brodiefenlon.bsky.social when they appeared at the Senate Transport and Communications Committee this morning. #CBC #SRC #SenateofCanada #cdnpoli #X #Bluesky #TRCM

If resources are scarce to ensure you are, as a public broadcaster, not only hitting your audience but seeing where the debates are and, let's be honest @brodiefenlon.bsky.social Bluesky is now where the experts are, maybe scarce resources can be found in executive bonuses.

I still use X but it's not a place for good debate. I see very little anger on BlueSky...it's a refuge of peace. CBC and all MP's etc should either restrict replies on X or leave entirely.
When the PMJT tweeted most responses were bots or vile. And amplified by every 'like'

With a demented POTUS...that's a tough one to answer.

Carney can't stop Trump, from day one every serious person understood the grave consequences for our economy. To sit here now and pretend this was avoidable, or someone else would bring a different result, is fanciful fiction. Buy Canadian, don't travel south and redirect our economy. #cdnpoli

CANADA STRONG & FREE NETWORK Dale, The Liberals are playing a DANGEROUS game with our country! They’re pushing the Supreme Court to SLASH the Notwithstanding Clause. THIS IS THE GLUE THAT HOLDS OUR CONSTITUTION TOGETHER. We’re really worried, Dale. This could spark a crisis and tear our nation apart! Even the experts are warning this is a “SHOCKING” move that could lead to a full-blown CONSTITUTIONAL MELTDOWN! Tell Us Where You Stand! Should the Radicals mess with our Constitution? No way! Protect Provincial Rights! Yes, Let Ottawa Rule I’m Concerned – Need More Info

The emails from the former Manning Centre are getting increasingly unhinged.

It's worth about $5 million.

Glory!

How Law Enforcement Got the Man Suspected of Killing Charlie Kirk F.B.I. leaders touted the immense federal deployment assigned to find the assassin. But their big break came with a single tip — from the suspect’s own family.

Elon Musk has gone completely out of his mind.

He's ranting and raving violently by the hour now.

I believe this is what is called stochastic terrorism. It is a direct attempt to incite mass violence. He even reposted a *hit list*.

As dangerous a man as America has ever seen.

Again CBC news @cbcnews.ca stop airing racists spewing inaccurate information regarding our immigration policies. Your watchers who don’t know any better will believe these people. Stop with the misinformation!!!

thebaseddad 16h If a democrat was assassinated could you imagine what would be going on right now? michaelandwicket 12h Yes. I can. Because it happened literally 3 months ago. And guess what? Democrats called for gun reform and right wingers made jokes about it. Trump said calling anybody to give his condolences would be a waste of time and then skipped the funeral. So we don't have to imagine. It literally just happened. And not a single person on the left called for a war, or called for the Republican party to be labeled a domestic terrorist organization. You cared so little that you don't even remember it.

I don’t know who these people are, but it’s well said.

There's no reason to take any reporting about Tyler Robinson at face value right now. Countless officials, law enforcement agencies, politicians, influencers, and reporters have been wrong, hoaxed, or caught making things up. Social media is making us all crazy and stupid.

On the other hand we don't know what cuts and how they will be implemented.

The tariffs that PM Carney cancelled will help small biz & grocery prices and they seem to be happy with the decision.
Now Canadians have a personal choice to make, buy Canadian if possible.

Opinion: Poilievre’s closest adviser Jenni Byrne tells a perfect election story On a recent podcast, Byrne told the tale of a winning campaign that lost only because the rest of the world misunderstood the assignment

"This argument falls apart pretty quickly, if you squint even a little. Ms. Byrne’s party was auditioning to be the govt – until everything flipped upside down, they were the govt in waiting..." via @sproudfoot.bsky.social and @theglobeandmail.com

That wasn't important, an easy give.

Wab should talk to small biz and grocery stores who are feeling great relief. Those tariffis meant higher prices in Canada.

You seem to have no faith in quiet negotiations. Or the potential side deals that are happening behind Trumps back.
Weakness isn't loud...it plans 10 steps ahead.

#Canada and #Sweden are building a new kind of #geopolitical partnership—one based on #digitalsovereignty, #subseafiberoptic cables, #defense #autonomy, and #climate-aligned infrastructure.

Luke is a 'journalist'
He really doesn't understand the nature of negotiations or how they can change on a dime.
BTW 'Elbows Up' was intended to unite the country as we face the Trump challenge. PM Carney knew it wouldn't be easy & most intelligent Cdns also know.

Not surprised. I hear less talk about it and we talk less about it online but we are still avoiding all US goods possible and buying Canadian whenever we can. Discussion with friends, family, acquaintances tells me that many are taking this strategy for supporting 🍁 seriously.

Canada’s non-U.S. trade continues to grow at double digits! #cdnpoli
