Hugh Hewitt Show, Jan 6 2025
Hugh Hewitt: ”I think Trudeau might resign today. Are you looking forward to working with Pierre Poilievre, the new guy?”
Donald J Trump: ”I am. I am, if that’s what happens. Certainly, it will be very good. Our views would be more aligned, certainly.” #cdnpoli #Liberals

Every time Mark Carney meets with workers or business people and talks about the economy, a traditional conservative unhappy with Poilievre jumps to the Liberals and a frustrated CPC staffer lets out a sigh. This is the way. Take away his left flank and leave him the far right.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?

It's not because of immigrants, trans people, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. 

It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

Add to the long list of Americans Trump and Musk are sticking it to.

Prime Minister Carney will eliminate GST for first-time homebuyers Prime Minister Carney today announced that the Government of Canada will eliminate the Goods and Services Tax (GST) for first-time homebuyers on homes at or under $1 million

Another move by the new PM. This one will help new home buyers, the construction industry, and workers. Might also provide some support for lumber being tariffed by the US I would suspect?

Canadians to Maine: No Thanks! | CNN Canadian tourists make up about 30-40% of the revenue for many businesses in Old Orchard Beach, Maine. This year, many are choosing to skip their regular getaway, given President Trump’s antagonistic ...

Does this impact any Republican districts in Maine ?

If so, Ask that representative why he is putting Trump ahead of his district !

Stopping deforestation is the one of the largest, fastest, cheapest, and most effective climate solutions we have.

Not to mention it’s the best way to stem biodiversity loss, too.

But we don’t give it nearly enough attention.

Let’s change that!

This is really the whole ball game right now, *particularly* among the institutions that make up civil society.

The Liberals are running with a strong leader this time, Bonnie Crombie. The NDP leader is also very good, Marit Stiles. People should vote strategically in their own riding. Which candidate is likely to win? NDP or Liberal? We can’t afford to split the vote. Thank you!!♥️♥️🇨🇦🇨🇦

He had 2 terms to do this. More election BS.

The provincial government says it has a plan to connect every Ontario resident with a family doctor within four years by spending $1.4 billion, in addition to $400 million that was previously committed to primary care.

Found Mark Carney to be surprisingly quite charming and funny on last night's show with Jon Stewart. Rolled with the jokes, and came off quite sincere and capable. A huge contrast to the nasty social media swamp creature that the Conservatives are running with. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zs8S...
