"In 2025 millions of Canadians rallied behind what they took to be a promise of renewed economic sovereignty and progressive nation-building. Over the past year, the government they elected has effectively delivered the exact opposite." #cdnpoli
Mark Carney promised to take on Donald Trump. He’s done anything but
While Prime Minister Mark Carney said he be “Elbows up” to Trump, his policy choices have essentially aligned Canada with America.

This is happening in Canada as well. Conservative premiers and a compliant Mark Carney are eroding our civil liberties. Meta - a world leader in surveillance and privacy issues has even said that the Liberal government is going too far with bill C-22. If Meta is saying you’re spying too much…
Lucy Hamilton@lucyham.bsky.social · 5d agoThe UK gov is almost able to make protest untenable now. You can only protest if you are invisible. UK has made political prisoners of Grannies and church folk holding signs. The UK’s slide to illiberalism is better dressed than the US version, but it’s the same trajectory.

Well they also want to destroy books so they can be the final arbiter of truth and thus rewrite history.

Fraudulent activity by bad US actors will surely cross the border. AI is increasingly turbocharging fraud. So Mark Carney emulates Trump by defunding Canada's Office of Consumer Affairs, which closes its doors in March 2027. More open season on scams. 10/ www.donotpassgo.ca/p/carney-gov...

How does Mark Carney respond to groceries coming up to Canada from the USA now being less safe? He eliminates 587 food inspector jobs. Trump makes it awful. Carney makes it worse. Trump creates new risks for Canadians, Carney doubles down on them. 5/ www.realagriculture.com/2026/01/carn...

To this PM, big oil matters, and your health very much does not. This colossal cut to health care will almost cover a new publicly funded pipeline & expanding fossil fuel infrastructure on a west coast port. Handouts to climate non-solution CCS will require further cuts. shrlnk.ca/s/7SgMK3Vs

The claim “RFK Jr. does not fuck chickens” is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that RFK Jr. fucks chickens.
