Dear Americans,

Stop glazing Doug Ford. He's not your friend, he's not our friend. He's a shitty conservative populist that is exactly like Trump in every single way. He's corrupt, he's racist, he ignores our laws and he intimidates our media. He pretends to be against Trump for optics only.

Ford on Tariffs: But there has to be a point that, if Prime Minister Carney can’t get a deal, we have to start hitting back.

We can’t just keep rolling over to President Trump. As he strengthens his case, we seem to be weakening our case by continuously pulling off tariffs.

Why is a person with "vote blue no matter who" in their profile getting this upset at people pointing out the Democrat leadership is not voting blue no matter who?

The fall out of Carney's latest visit with Trump:
After bragging about Canada joining the US, Trump made it clear he is determined to destroy our autoworkers and steelworkers.
But Danielle Smith and the planet burners are over the moon.
They say this is "love language."

Oh yeah, Carney sucked his dick hard. That doesn't change the fact dem leadership sucks balls and are responsible for the conditions that allowed for a POTUS like Trump. Listen to your goddamn base for once.

We're going to have to retire that saying. They've been saying it out loud the day Trump came down the elevator, declared the American dead and started calling brown people rapists.

Guy has 1.3 million followers on Bluesky alone. Has he once said "Let's do socialized healthcare" or is he doing cringy Trump style Truth Social posts promoting his own personal businesses? His class interests don't align with yours, americans deserve free healthcare.

Cuban is not fighting to change the system. He's not advocating to change it. He is profiting from it. He is looking out for his class, not yours. You're sucking his dick. You're getting free healthcare and telling americans they can't have the same. You are an asshole.

And I empathize with you, being the only developed nation in the world to allow your citizens to die of preventable causes due to being poor. But hey, at least a guy that never worries about that is selling discount medication to the lower middle class for profit.

Canada's Border Czar @goodie-fx.bsky.social · 11h

Yes, you are fawning over him. His class interests are diametrically opposed to yours and the majority of americans. He is not fighting to get you free healthcare. Which is what you and every other american deserve.

You're fawning over a guy that benefits immensely from having healthcare too expensive for millions and millions of people. He is not looking out for you, he only protects his own class. You deserve free healthcare. You don't have to be beholden to insurance companies.

Canada's Border Czar @goodie-fx.bsky.social · 12h

You applaud him for reinforcing the system that keeps your healthcare unfordable to millions and millions of people so he can hawk some discount drugs on the side? Wake up. Americans are the only people in the industrialized where this is acceptable. You deserve free healthcare, not Mark Cuban.

Keep buying medication from Canada. We keep prices low through government subsidizes because we believe healthcare is a basic human right. You don't have to enrich this billionaire to get the care you need. Americans, you deserve free healthcare just like the rest of the world.

This is disgusting behaviour from Carney towards Karina Gould.

And frankly, coupled with the “boys club” stuff sources have previously told me and the way he tended to lose patience more quickly with female journalists during the campaign…he may need to “look inside himself.”

MACLEAN'S excerpt:

The attacks were genteel compared to most political mud-slinging, and Liberals warmed to her during the campaign. They embraced her as both a cherished member of the
Liberal family and, increasingly, the standard bearer for its left flank. But her needling got under Carney's skin, even though he was the front-runner (she ultimately received only three per cent of the vote). He and his staff made their irritation plain; one member of Gould's team told me that many of them were aggressive in their vitriol toward her.

MACLEAN'S excerpt continued:

“When someone from Gould's team texted to ask if she could stop by and congratulate the winner, Carney said no. In fact, according to one source I spoke with, he said he didn't ever want to see her again. Carney's staff sent Gould a non-committal answer, trying not to offend her, but she showed up anyway. That led to a brief, awkward meeting with Carney.
The incident rattled some of the people around the newly elected leader. Many had worked under Justin Trudeau, who, after a lifetime in politics, had skin like a crocodile.
Carney, after years of being celebrated, venerated and treated with the deference accorded to a titan of the financial world, seems to have a skin like a peach.”
