⚠️Premier Smith has gone too far.😔

🔴From banning books 📚 & silencing teachers 👩‍🏫 to rushing anti-democratic bills through the #Alberta legislature — she’s importing U.S🇺🇸 extremism into Canada🇨🇦.

🚨This is #Authoritarianism in disguise.👎

"The more I think about Mark Carney’s Oval Office performance, the more impressed I am. No. It wasn’t capitulation. It was statecraft."

Marie 🇨🇦 @pawbaby2.bsky.social · 2d

Dean Blundell nails it: PM Carney didn’t go to D.C. to trend, he went to trade blows and gain leverage. He praised, corrected, joked, and swallowed hard when it mattered. Bottom line: he walked out ahead.

VIDEO: Canada's Mark Carney Played the Oval Office Again this Week - And What He Didn't Say Might Have Been More Impressive Than What He Did.

He made Trump feel like a king—and used the moment to buy room for Canada’s interests while muting himself in a moment everyone missed.

The US can take that bill and shove it where the sun doesn't shine. What's the rationale? I don't think any Canadian in their right mind would agree to give an inch of our sovereign land to a fascist regime. The takeover of the USA is a severe warning how quickly & brutally insane they've become.

What would you expect from PoiLIEvre & failed leader Andy Sneer, mocking a letter from a 7th Grader's letter thanking MPs for supporting Canada’s national school lunch program.
PoiLIEvre himself voted against that program.
He opposed it & then mocked a child who simply said thank you for it.
