I just don't have any patience for folks who jump into my comments to rationalize any criticism of Carney. I don't care if you say we're on the same side. Just don't do it. It's *exhausting*.

Yeah. Like BC. And Indigenous folks. And anyone who cares about climate. And anyone who isn't focused on corporate profits.

Every Canadian deserves to be free from violence. This is not just a moral imperative — it is key to building a safer and more equitable Canada for everyone.

In December 2024, Vinay Prasad was telling the world RFK was going to save vaccines.

RFK is the hero real vaccine advocates have all been waiting for. He would finally provide definitive answers.

IMO, all the alarm bells should be ringing with respect to Carney’s “whole society approach” that binds everything into a duty to state sovereignty through a reorganization around industry and military.

The potential impact of Carney's 'nation-building' projects is up for debate, as many are located in individual provinces or territories, and were previously approved by those jurisdictions.

So the PM intended to inform B.C.'s premier once the negotiations with Alberta have been finalized?

Nation-building promised, sausage-making delivered.

Regardless of whether this pipeline will ever be built, the process itself is profoundly damaging.

And it's not just in areas like federalism - Carney's got pathetically short-term vision on the economy and growth, the very things he's supposed to expert in.
Carney’s approach here is very much in keeping with an observation Paul Wells made back in the summer, that he’s focused on short-term deliverables, not long-term governance challenges.
The problem is, neglecting and failing to improve governance will leave Canada with weaker foundations.

Over many interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Michael Scherer about how he plans to remake America’s public-health system. Can he lead the scientific establishment he’s spent much of his life crusading against?
