Canadian looking for Canadians to keep Canada super. Sometimes I think I'm funny, but I'm probably not.

What everyone is calling g "scrapping" (like greenwashing), are tweeks. They're still there, just modified to work better (hopefully).

I wonder where this fits with eu climate mandates & preferred trading status.

This is state monopoly capitalism, a late Marxist system

I think he's a narcissistic sociopath, like trump, who cares not one whit for anyone or anything but himself. I think he's ambivalent to Canada.

Masked?

All cowards. Spineless worms. Thing is, if they had stood up then, they wouldn't be in this position now. Thing is, it only gets worse from here, as each act of aggressive threat that's successful reinforces it's success.

100%.

Sure. Expecting the 4th pillar to hold (of which you're a part) is obvs delusional.
I do see tons of debunking, but it's drowned by the misinfo, esp when msm uncritically repeats, while ignoring truth. Curious to hear your thoughts on improvement.

Kmacky @kmacky.bsky.social · 1d

Don't get me wrong, I think their comms suck, but there's more to it than just that.

When msm doesn't cover it, it's not their choice. When cbc, ctv, global choose to run with the mis/disinformation without push back, it's no longer a matter of "vacuous pablum" it's more a matter of being ignored for more sensational click bait.

How do you refute bs that's pulled out of someone's 9th field ass? If you can't get in front of it (which you can't when it's made up), then you're always behind, playing catch-up.

Kmacky @kmacky.bsky.social · 1d

Bullshit. Trudeau faced enormous headwinds, esp in the form of mis & disinfo from foreign actors. Carney's headwinds are no different. You're allowing mal-actors to define gov actions. You should stand up for truth instead of blithely rollin' with vibes.

Teen Vogue was a clear true voice in the chaos. I'm sad for you, and sad for us all.

Honestly, I prefer they see it first before they decide.

Not "wasn't designed," more "actively punished."

Sure she is, she's just smarter than the rest & is hiding it better.

Should we invest in people instead of corps? Yes. Should we nationalize o&g, rail, steel, aluminum, critical minerals & auto? Or leave it to corps? Where do we draw the line?
We have big commits to WAGE, housing & infrastructure. Let's wait & see what else there is before we light our hair on fire.

Kmacky @kmacky.bsky.social · 3d

We need investment in these things to make this happen. Do I want to see better HC & ed? Yes, but I also realize getting rid of Ford is pivotal here. Do I want clean energy investment? Yes, but we need to be realistic in the here & now, while realizing both possibilities should be built out. 3/

We also have 80% of our trade heading to the US, and at this moment antagonizing them is idiotic. We can't turn trade on a dime, as China did, cuz we don't have the port capacity, rail infrastructure or frankly energy capacity to do so. We can't defend ourselves against nominal attack. 2/

Might I point out the only actual wise thing you said here..
"Maybe we should wait and see the budget..."
You have no idea what's in it, to announce what they're walking back.
We have Carney asking for dept cut proposals, while also running on "prepare for the worst, hope for the best" rhetoric. 1/

She's still all those things. She also sees the writing on the wall (re trumps failing health), and is positioning herself for leadership.
