Carney raised Keystone XL pipeline revival in meeting with Trump | CBC News

Relief for Canada from U.S. tariffs on steel and aluminum may come thanks to renewed interest in a pipeline project first proposed more than 15 years ago.

As we watch the growing resistance to Danielle Smith's MAGA agenda in Alberta let's remember the powerful roots of true prairie populism. We have national health care because that generation stood up for a better vision of Canada.

Meanwhile, we still don't need American alcohol.
BC and Ontario wines are better.
We distill all manner of excellent whiskies across the country.
We show our defiance with our wallets and our liquor cabinets.

They think they can come up to Canada and sweet talk us into buying their shit.
Ain't gonna happen.

Poilievre launches an attack on the PM on the eve of a high-stakes meeting with a regime that wants to break our nation.
MAGA Pierre claims he will be open to talking with MAGA America.
His only other job experience was working at Dairy Queen (apparently).
Put a sock in it Pierre.

MAGA MAPLE declared that a youth that asked a question at a public event should be "spanked."
Danielle Smith accused the school board of being "viciously compliant" when they released the list of books the MAGA morons were trying to ban.
In Alberta, the kids are alright.

Last week Alberta quislings were in Washington to further the break up of our nation. Meanwhile Danielle Smith is setting up a fight over a pipeline that no-one is trying to build.
It is about stoking the base and driving rage against Canada.

Seeing all the great work @charlieangus104.bsky.social is doing lately, I am once again reminded how wrong the #NDP was in not selecting him as their leader after Jack Layton passed. He is a natural. Not perfect, of course, but quite good. #CDNpoli www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmMl...

Don't be suckered in by Poilievre's campaign to launch a campaign over Canadian Christians suffering "persecution." He is running the same playbook as the AfD in Germany, Trump in the States and Farage in the UK.

Grievance politics fuel far right extremism and work to instill a narrative in the target demographic (Christians, especially white ones in this case) that they are under attack and mobilized them. @charlieangus104.bsky.social makes it easy to understand. Very important work.
