Carney says “lecturing from afar” on human rights is ineffective. He should know: men much like him have ensured it stayed ineffective. But tellingly, he proposes no alternative approach. There's no "here's what might work better." Carney's 🇨🇦 simply no longer tries. 🧵1/ www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

Oops. When I listed some examples of Carney showing complete contempt for Canadian rights, I meant to include his repeatedly tabling privacy violations that the Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled unconstitutional. My bad. So much contempt for rights to keep track of! 28/ bsky.app/profile/sust...
The Carney government is so dedicated to imposing a police-state-style warrantless surveillance bill on Canadian citizens that when their first attempt failed, they decided to try, try again. Now that he has his unaccountable majority, the vile current version's passage seems near inevitable. 🧵1/
Carney stans tout Carney's frequent jet setting on trade missions, but they're not about soft power at all. Soft power grows from generosity to the vulnerable. Carney reserves all his generosity for the investor class. Comparatively, the world's poor might as well be NPCs. 24/ shrlnk.ca/s/mKWdKOng
Are foreign investors coming to build Canada, or just buy it?
Parsing through the finer details in the Carney government's investment playbook, it is becoming increasingly clear that there is little distinction, or preference, for investment that builds.

Since lecturing from afar on human rights is ineffective, we just won't attempt to promote human rights at all. Let's let foreign oligarchs buy & control our public assets. No more "Canada the good." Instead, we'll try "Canada for sale." UAE can invest! 23/ canadiandimension.com/articles/vie...

We aren't just helping ICE. Canada is also arming ICE, so we can add one more to the list of countries widely violating human rights using Canadian made hardware. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a... While Carney's Canada also emulates ICE tactics here at home. 22/ shrlnk.ca/s/zH3RYJbN

Arming multiple genocides, firing seasoned diplomats, abandoning those in desperate need of aid, & walking away from peacekeeping is the opposite of the "middle powers embodying values like respect for human rights" in Carney's Davos speech (that he meant none of). 20/ bsky.app/profile/sust...
Mark Carney vs Mark Carney. Carney made an exemplary speech at the WEF. Sadly, his words and his actual policies tell two very different stories. When words & actions don't match, actions matter most. Orator Carney really needs to sit PM Carney down & give him a stern talking to. A 🇨🇦 poli 🧵 1/

These costs seep into struggling families’ pockets, with the average cost of building a new home in the five states with the highest immigrant share of their labor force jumping 13.1% — from $304,312 to $344,112 — compared to just 2.0% in the rest of the country👇🏽
Thanks to Stephen Miller’s mass deportation obsessions, the construction industry is shedding skilled workers at the absolute worst time. The field has already been facing a “significant shortage” since the mid-2000s. This means higher prices for Americans:

Sophie Cunningham was booed during last night’s WNBA game in Toronto. I think that’s a good thing. Cunningham is enjoying a right-wing media machine that’s embracing her. If this is the reward for engaging in hate, what’s the deterrent? Social consequences -- like booing:
