I don't think Canadians who voted for Carney in the last election realized they were voting for the second coming of Stephen Harper
Carney's announcement on bail/sentencing reform. Doing pretty much the opposite of what the legal community says.
(I have a story on this coming out shortly)

Prime Minister Carney announces new measures to combat crime, protect Canadians, and build safer communities


October 16, 2025
Etobicoke, Ontario



In a rapidly changing and more dangerous world, Canada is focused on what we can control. We are building our economy with major projects and millions more homes, we are empowering Canadians with lower costs and new opportunities to help you get ahead, and we are protecting our communities and our country. We cannot control what other nations do, but we can control what we choose to build – and we are building Canada strong.

Safe, resilient communities are the backbone of a strong Canada. They attract people, families, businesses, and investment, and enable greater certainty and prosperity. To that end, the Prime Minister, Mark Carney, announced new measures today that will protect Canadians and keep our communities safe. Canada’s new government will:

Strengthen Canada’s Criminal Code to keep violent and repeat offenders out of our communities. Next week, the government will table legislation to amend the Criminal Code for crimes committed by violent and repeat offenders – those accused of serious crimes like violent auto theft, breaking and entering, human trafficking, violent assault, and sexual assault. The legislation will include the following amendments:
Introducing reverse-onus bail for major crimes.
Allowing consecutive sentencing so multiple crimes mean longer time behind bars.
Imposing harsher penalties for organised retail theft.
Restricting conditional sentences for a number of sexual offences.
Hire 1,000 Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) personnel. In Budget 2025, the government will invest $1.8 billion over four years to increase federal policing capacity across Canada to combat crime – including online fraud, money laundering, online child sexual exploitation, and organised criminal networks that threaten Canada’s economic and national security.

Canada's Prime Minister is announcing law-and-order measures today. The last time the feds put forward measures placing the onus on the accused to prove they deserved bail for some crimes, the then-minister said they had no evidence for it. www.reuters.com/world/americ...

The Carney government's revealed preference is for deeper US integration. Literally everything Carney has done is consistent with this position.
If any other politician at any other time was doing what Carney is doing, this wouldn't even be up for debate.

New analysis of Prime Minister Mark Carney’s first 100 days after the federal election show oil and gas, mining and other industrial groups made up about 60 per cent of lobbying records. Environmental groups couldn’t get a word in. thenarwhal.ca/carney-natur...

Need to start asking this!
what did he think trump was gonna do, exactly. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Longtime Florida insurance agent Alan Reynolds, 65, predicts many of his customers will allow their policies to lapse when the price hikes become clear. An independent who leans conservative, Reynolds, of Port St. Lucie, called the Affordable Care Act flawed but said he favors the continuation of the enhanced subsidies “and not pulling the rug out from under people.”

His family is also affected. The loss of his wife’s subsidy means she is likely to pay about $1,200 or more each month, up from about $500 in 2024, he said. “I voted for Trump,” Reynolds said. “I didn’t expect this.”

Once American democracy made it possible for a Black man to be elected president, American conservatives decided that it had to be destroyed
While Vought traces the “leftwing revolution” back a hundred years, to the progressive era, there is no question that the election of Barack Obama was a radicalizing moment for him and many key thinkers on the radical Right - as were the multiracial protests in the summer of 2020.

Hint: A renegotiated agreement won’t solve anything. Because the country on the other end of it can’t be trusted to keep its word.
The US has changed the terms of North American governance. That, not tariffs, is the real problem. Certainty is no longer on the table. Canada needs to act accordingly.
Truth! #cdnpoli
There’s no more North American auto sector, because “North America” no longer exists. There‘s simply a giant US market, and satellite Canadian and Mexican suppliers.
That’s the reality, which isn’t reflected in Carney’s or Ford’s strategies.

i hate to be on my usual fucking bullshit but it really needs to be said that these are rape threats.

they also stripped her and filmed her.
Greta Thunberg was beaten and tortured by the Israelis. They learned how to call her a whore in Swedish, and forced her to wear the Israeli flag.

The Swedish foreign ministry abandoned its citizens in Israel, and downplayed what they went through.

www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/a/25...
Beating, kicking, and threats of being
gassed in cages. Greta Thunberg and several others from the flotilla are now sharing details about their five days in Israeli captivity - and how Swedish Foreign Ministry staff left
them without help. Aftonbladet's investigation shows how the Foreign Ministry downplayed the
abuse in its communications. Her red suitcase lies in the hall. "Whore Greta"
someone has written in large black letters. Around the text: an Israeli flag and an erect
penis. The bag was confiscated by the Israeli military from the boat - and returned to her like this. She
laughs.
- They're like five-year-olds! - They dragged me to the opposite side from where the others were sitting, and I had the flag around me the whole time. They hit and kicked me.
Greta laughs.
- Then they ripped off my frog hat, threw it on the ground, stomped and kicked it, and kind of threw a tantrum.
- They moved me very brutally to a corner that I was turned towards. 'A special place for a special lady', they said. And then they had learned 'Lilla hora' (Little whore) and 'Hora Greta' (Whore Greta) in Swedish, which they repeated all the time.
Hope you are covering the "Restore the North" tour Jamil Jivani is on, targeting universities.

Pierre Poilievre and his wife tag teaming the world with misinformation about Nazis and socialism, are all you need to know about what he wants to focus on. Rewriting history. This is stuff most of use learned in Jr. High #cdnpoli

The official government account for DHS appears to be run by far-right trolls deliberately trying to provoke a response by using a term openly associated with ethnic cleansing. They will attack anyone who points this out and express faux outrage at the suggestion. They know what they are doing.
Remigration Wikipedia Page.


Not to be confused with Return migration.
Remigration is an originally European far-right proposal of ethnic cleansing via the mass deportation of non-white immigrants and their descendants, sometimes including those born in Europe, to their place of racial ancestry.
It is popular especially within the Identitarian movement. Some proponents of remigration suggest excluding some persons with non-European background from such a mass deportation, based on a varyingly defined degree of assimilation into European culture.

I just checked and this is real. It's on Border Patrol's official Instagram (I don't see it on Facebook) and is being celebrated by Nazis on Twitter, as you can see in the screenshot.

The clip is just 13 seconds long too, so it's a very intentional thing. We've got a Nazi government.

This must rank as one of the more hilarious headlines I have seen in a long time.
Nothing like the political media in Ottawa for continually missing the moment as we watch democracy and the rule of law disintegrate on our unguarded border.

Spoiler alert- it was a Catholic hospital. I’ve been reading stories about people being denied miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy care at Catholic hospitals for well over a decade now, and people have definitely died because of these policies, but maternal mortality data is imperfect.
“Please someone listen to me, I don’t want to die”

These are the words of a woman named Harmonie who had an ectopic pregnancy

Her obgyn refused to help, citing a
1% chance the fetus could survive

She lives in a blue state & still couldn’t access the life saving care she needed
