How are you gonna get a pipeline through Quebec when you cut the industrial carbon tax? Then how do you sell it to Europe – they’ll protest and make it political if you aren’t good caretakers at the source.
On the election. I just can’t. But I will ask one simple question.
Was this member of both cabinets lying then(as anyone with a brain maintained much to the chagrin of the Tru-anon lunatics-Justin’s defence of the .13% is STILL on his X feed) or is she and Carney lying now? Pretty straightforward question. Anyone?
She is saying people will literally die in the streets without this capital gains tax increase that they have now cancelled. And that was only about 10 seconds ago.
I will give you a hint. Look to Carney’s billionaire donors.
Being called a globalist is an antisemitic. I have family in Europe, Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the United States – why is that so bad – why is it bad to see Canada as part of the broader global community – we have to be to survive tariffs from America so it’s much better to be a globalist than an isolationist nativist
Of course it’s anti-semitic. It goes back to the “rootless Jew” thing that anti-semites pushed in Europe and the UK in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It’s why the Rothschilds were such bete noires of the anti-Semitic movement then, it’s all over the Protocols of the Elders of Zion etc.
And you could watch it developing in the US via Breitbart, which was absolutely obsessed with George Soros. Guess which religion he is? “Globalist” really got into the MAGA verbal currency via Bannon and Breitbart, who held him out as the #1 Globalist.
And the word “slave” was originally a racist epithet against people of eastern European origin.
I don’t know the exact origin of the term globalist but the modern usage describes those who place the ideals of supranational bodies like Davos and the UN ahead of the needs and well-being of their own citizens.
Moreover I don’t think this line of attack will scare citizens out of increasingly demanding their political leaders prioritize citizens above foreign nationals. Otherwise what is the point of nation states?
I’m not out to scare anybody. Just calling out anti-Semitic dog whistles for what they are. If you don’t think the US far right’s hyperbolic demonization of George Soros isn’t anti-Semitic I don’t know what else to say. And the fact that “globalist” was the go-to epithet has obvious parallels to the “rootless stateless international Jew” tropes that anti-Semites have been pushing for centuries now.
I studied this stuff in university. It’s real and if you want to deny that it’s real that’s your problem.
Hey Doc since you are now issuing left-wing compelled-speech diktats, what word are we allowed to use to describe those who put the interests of unelected supranational bodies ahead of the interests of their own countrymen and particularly the working class of their country? Internationalists?
I should clarify that I’m not Jewish – I read my comment and thought somebody might think I’m Jewish from reading it – I’m catholic, but if I were Jewish I’d be damn proud of it

Jesus Christ…if globalism has been demonstrably shown to be anti-semitic or hateful speech of any kind, then you fucking don’t use it in a campaign! Period. You’ve got to be pretty thick as a brick not to get that one. Political Since 101. And for the record, if I have used it in the past, then I apologize for having done so.
Pierre is playing right into LyingAssCarney’sTM hands: Carney is making things up and totally lying about the CPC position on dental care and other issues because our leader refuses to take questions on those issues. When you leave a deliberate political void rather than honestly answer, then voters are ENTITLED to assume/presume the worst against you. So maybe, just maybe, we should stop handing ammunition to Carney that he can use to blow us the hell up? Get your position straight and release it publicly N-O-W.
The CPC war room needs to be supplemented. Our strategists are not good enough to turn this around so bluntly put, you can listen to me, Martin, Douglas, Doc and others and then we will turn this around and win a majority government. Listen to yourselves and your woefully inadequate echo chamber and we will lose big. The LyingAssCarneyLiberalsTM will come in with a health majority. So it’s Pierre’s choice to make right now. Live or die politically. Better get it right.
Poilievre and his tax cut put us on the same track as Trumps America / if you are paying attention to what’s happening there it’s a complete disaster. Why would we want the same for Canada? No
They’re cutting Medicaid and what little they have for health care security in the states – in Canada Poilievre will have to cut into healthcare – gonna have to cut into to everything for that tax cut just like is happening in the states – and in America what’s happening is an absolute disaster for their country – such a shame – why let us fall victim to the same – they’re raging ideologues who won’t let good research and facts get in their way –
Well, Curious. I will give you this: Quebec will need to be bribed bigly in order for the province to permit a pipeline to cross its territory all the way to Saint John. Don’t you just love Canadian federalism?!

Looks like Danielle smith is working with Trump and the fringe media to meddle in the election
My instinct when Trump said he didn’t like Poilievre is that they’re working together – just like Smith
Curious,
Your instinct is full of shit. Smith, on her best day, is a first-class moron and it really shows…
Great music this week. My go to Wire is:

Wasn’t familiar with Ecco Vandal. Really good. Thank-you. The track had a real Go Gos’ We Got The Beat vibe at the start.
And her latest has some Gandharvas vibe.

Accusations of “dog-whistling” are nothing more than voodoo claims to be able to read minds.
There’s a river in Egypt called de nile.
Hey Doc since you are now issuing left-wing compelled-speech diktats, what word are we allowed to use to describe those who put the interests of unelected supranational bodies ahead of the interests of their own countrymen and particularly the working class of their country? Internationalists?
Fair question.
Depends on perspective.
Globalism has been horrifically bad for Canada’s youth unless they have wealthy parents.

Mike Myers last paid income taxes in Canada in 1988.
I’m glad he found fame and fortune in the US making funny voices, but his image of Canada is frozen in a vastly different time.
Mike Meyers was paid for his work, about $50,000.
Gilbert,
You mean he didn’t do it out of pure unadulterated conviction and principle? Oh yeah, I forgot he endorsed the Carney Liberals. Birds of a feather.
Vive la resistance!

Mark Carney ne veut pas participer dans le debate en français. À mon avis, c’est une grosse erreur.
Gilbert,
Le débat de TVA aura été le deuxième débat en français. Le débat du consortium ira de l’avant à Montréal.
For the french challenged types(including me):
“Mark Carney doesn’t want to participate in the French debate. In my opinion, this is a big mistake.”
“The TVA debate was the second debate held in French. The consortium debate will move forward in Montreal.”
Carney’s excuse was that he didn’t want to pay the 75k and Pierre has magnanimously offered to pay and aslo invite May. So we should be good to go!
Martin,
Carney’s French is garbage so they definitely aren’t for a second debate.
Warren,
The CPC war room needs to be supplemented. Our strategists are not good enough to turn this around so bluntly put, you can listen to me, Martin, Douglas, Doc and others and then we will turn this around and win a majority government.

Ronald,
Have you seen the price of crystal balls these days?
He might not be able to afford it
Douglas,
Pierre needs all the help he can get in order to win. That’s the election in a nutshell.
Hey! I am just here for the tunes and stock tips!
Martin,
We’ve covered quite a few natural resource stock picks already. LOL.

No he won’t but I appreciate that you have been brainwashed from birth that he will.
Curious,
Wrong again. Our tax cuts are working to middle class tax cuts. Try to pay attention.
Curious,
You need to buy a new crystal ball since this one is way off as usual.
lol –
So what chance do the conservatives have of getting a pipeline through Quebec? zero and especially when they cut the industrial carbon tax –
It’s very simple. They allow a pipeline ot get a reduction in their transfer paynents.
Gilbert,
Can’t unilaterally do that since it’s constitutional in nature. It’s probably seven out of ten provinces. Don’t feel like checking.
Well, Curious. I will give you this: Quebec will need to be bribed bigly in order for the province to permit a pipeline to cross its territory all the way to Saint John. Don’t you just love Canadian federalism?!
