Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.
It looks as if Poilievre could potentially lose his own seat in Ottawa-Carlton - and that would be fun - so that's what this is about #cdnpoli
Linda@ljjlinda.bsky.social · last yr.Just go to the Federal Liberal site and select Carlton as the riding for your donation. Easy-peasy.

The Tyee@thetyee.ca · last yr.A Canadian misinformation researcher says Tim Pool’s and Ian Miles Cheong’s amplification and exaggeration of Trump’s message is typical of the way right-wing influencers pick up and spread the president’s talking points.
