I’m always disappointed when politicians say they will cut “waste” to invest more elsewhere. It’s lazy and intellectually dishonest. It implies Departments don’t implement decisions as efficiently as possible. Cutting “waste” usually means cutting services. Are they are to timid to admit that?
To build the Canada we want for ourselves, we have to make responsible choices and bet big on Canadians.
We’re going to cut waste and spend less on government operations — so we can make the big investments that will grow our economy and create new opportunities for Canadians.

According to Anna Wong and Danielle Demartino Booth, US data show that 90-100% of tariffs is passed through to the US. Suppliers are not cutting costs. 70-80% is paid by wholesalers/logistics (squeezing profits) and about 15% is paid by consumers

Good conversation with RBC chief economist, Frances Donald, on the Hurley Burley podcast. She is pretty optimistic about how well Canada has performed so far in the face of global trade disruption

Today I’m visiting Fort Wellington, which played an important role in protecting Canada from the Americans in the war of 1812 and subsequent rebellions in 1830s and Fenian raids of 1866. Its guns are still pointed at America

Some party leaders are avoiding an interview with @nardwuarserviette.bsky.social. How did Nardwuar become Canada’s Joe Rogan? 🤣

Liberals say, “Vote for us and we will solve your problems.”
Conservatives say, “Vote for us and we will get out of the way of making problems.”
Right now Canadians want gov involved in solving problems. For conservatives to win, they must change their ideology of who they fundamentally are.
