Oil futures rose 65% after invasion of Ukraine, even though world oil supply kept growing. That cost Cdns $200b ($12K/household) over next 3 yrs. It's financialized speculation, not supply shocks, that facilitates this price gouging. Get ready for it to happen all over. #cdnecon /2

On the line in Ottawa: Unifor National President @lanapayne.bsky.social stood in solidarity with locked-out DHL Express Canada workers who are now on strike. These Unifor members are fighting back against rollbacks and concessions that would hurt them and their families. #canlab

When a Government is scientifically illiterate, but doesn’t know it, then its actions (or inactions) can be a recipe for the dismantling of an informed and enlightened Democracy.

A prematurely smug Conservative troll (echoing a prematurely smug Conservative leader) challenged me to update my chart from last year regarding the non-relationship between the carbon price and inflation. OK, let's do it. #cdnecon #canlab /2

Please also see our 'False Profits' report that shows oil company profits, not the carbon tax, were the biggest driver of peak inflation in the post-COVID period: falseprofits.ca/reports.

Conservatives shout out "Change" as their main theme.

But beware what will happen with Conservative Change.

Just look at what "change" did to America. Do you want that?

Realize that COVID was in the middle of the last 10 years of Liberal rule. Blame COVID, not Liberal rule for negative issues!

Poilievre is really a dirtbag. He doesn't support the human rights of Canadians that are different from himself.

PP showing so much desperation...

Watching Pierre Poilievre’s press conference in Hamilton right now, and his speech has devoted extended amounts of time to repeating two debunked claims:

1) that the Liberal platform was written for Trudeau (it wasn’t, Janyce McGregor already fact checked this)

David, many many more of us appreciate you for doing your job so well.
Keep at it.
Awful.
It’s only one federal party that denigrates the CBC.
I hope Pollievre and conservatives get destroyed this election.
You are valued David

There is something deeply wrong and broken within #PierrePoilieve. His demands to be photographed at a distance, while press is kept many meters away so that it’s more difficult to ask questions, is but one indicator that this is a weird authoritarian wannabe. #StopPoilievre #Elxn2025 #cdnpoli

Never forget Pierre Poilievre went by the name “Jeff” until he had political ambitions and Harper told him it would play better in Québec. #polcan #cdnpoli

To be super clear:

CTV Your Morning *approached* @rachelgilmore.bsky.social to do a weekly segment

CTV announced on *national TV* she would be returning each week

Then CTV *cancels* her segment after Poilievre’s staffer denounces the announcement on X

pressprogress.ca/ctv-cancelle...
Absolutely shameful that CTV caved to a disingenuous right-wing pressure campaign instead of standing their ground. It presents even more red flags about the state of the media in Canada.

@rachelgilmore.bsky.social did not deserve to be treated this way.
NEW: CTV cancelled a fact-checking segment in response to political pressure from Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives

An audio recording obtained by PressProgress shows CTV cancelled an ‘election misinformation’ segment with journalist Rachel Gilmore after online backlash from conservatives

NEW: Elon Musk’s X has suspended accounts of Turkish opposition groups, suppressing footage of anti-government protests.

So, best we share all the footage we can here!

This was last night’s massive demo against Erdogan’s government, which follows the arrest of his rival Ekrem İmamoğlu.

When a man advises on government efficiency while facing his own regulatory troubles, we witness a peculiar American tradition: the fox not only guardin' the henhouse but redesignin' it while under investigation for previous henhouse incidents.
