Canada’s Corrupt Liberal Government

Leader of Liberals, who appear to have made a remarkable turnaround, has said old relationship with the US is over

At the beginning of the year, Canada’s Conservatives had a 25-point lead over the Liberal government, and their leader, Pierre Poilievre, looked certain to be the country’s next prime minister. But as the votes cast in Monday’s election have been counted, the story of the campaign has been confirmed: victory for the Liberals and their new leader, Mark Carney, who have extended their decade of rule by as much as another five years.

Mark Carney is expected to name a new cabinet within two weeks of his election victory and recall Parliament soon after.

A senior Liberal official told The Globe and Mail that by Canada Day, the new government plans to bring in a new budget that includes a promised middle class tax cut and legislation to remove federal impediments to interprovincial trade.

The Globe and Mail is not identifying the official who was not authorized to discuss the Carney government’s plans.

Asked to name the biggest threat to Canada’s security during an election debate, Mark Carney, the country’s prime minister and Liberal Party leader running to win a full term, gave a surprising answer: “China.”

Analysts saw it as an attempt to distance himself from the country amid heightened scrutiny on his own past work there.

Mr. Carney, a former central banker and business executive, dealt with the Chinese establishment in his recent private-sector roles for companies with investments in China.

Nice of the NYTimes to whitewash Carney’s China links.

Nope no China class in this country.

2 days before the Canadian election day, Wang Di (王镝), PRC Amabassador in Canada, met the Desmarais family in his residence.

No Canadian flag there.

One common narrative of this election has been “The Boomers vs. Everyone Else.” Poll after poll after poll has shown Mark Carney and his band of Trudeau Liberals with big leads among Boomers — Canadians over the age of 60, or so — with younger age groups favouring Pierre Poilievre and the Conservatives, sometimes by quite a lot.

Tomorrow’s election will be one of the most important in Canadian history. The results hang on one crucial question: what’s the biggest threat to Canada right now?

The Liberals, under the guidance of Mark Carney, have used every tool at their disposal to frighten, persuade, and cajole voters into believing the biggest threat to Canada is American tariffs and America’s president.

But while relations with America are indeed something Canadians should care about, let’s hope that they’re not quite gullible enough to fall for that one. Let’s hope they recognise what Liberals have spent ten years proving over and over: the greatest threat to Canada as we know it isn’t in some other country. It’s right at home in Canada, nestling comfortably in the nation’s biggest armchair: the feckless and arrogant Liberal Party, with Mark Carney at its head.

Friday afternoon, I received a tele-marketing call from the Liberal candidate in my riding in Calgary. She went through the usual spiel of “having a strong voice to speak on my behalf in Ottawa”.

She added the polls in the riding look like it’s a toss-up between her and the Conservative candidate, but if I cast my vote for her, “we can elect a government and a prime minister in Mark Carney that will stand up to Donald Trump and protect Canadian sovereignty”.

If the latest polling is accurate, Canadian voters on Monday may grant Canada’s Liberal government another four years in power.

The party, which has been in power since 2015, was given a new lease of life in the form of former central banker Mark Carney – who has boosted its standing in the opinion polls.

But despite the Liberals’ makeover, all Carney represents is the continuity of Justin Trudeau’s appalling legacy.

At a recent Liberal Party rally, Prime Minister Mark Carney responded to a heckler who accused Israel of perpetrating a genocide in Gaza with the words: “I’m aware. It’s why we have an arms embargo.” That sentence was not just a deflection — it was a tacit endorsement of one of the most dangerous and legally baseless accusations circulating in today’s global discourse.

Canada is tragically a nation in decline. For a number of years, the key economic and quality of life metrics have slowly but surely worsened. This has happened while comparable countries have done much better. And it’s largely been a policy choice. We are not in accidental decline, but managed decline.

This is where we find ourselves, as we are on the cusp of a momentous national election. The choice voters face on Monday is whether to continue down this path or to turn things around by going in a different direction.

He dominated Canadian politics for a decade. But almost nothing has been seen or heard of Justin Trudeau since he stepped down as prime minister last month.

His Liberal Party, with a new leader, has the advantage as the country heads into a general election on Monday.

Just so long as it can avoid reminding people of the scandals and missteps that eventually ended his political career.

Think your quality of life has declined since 2015?

Data suggests you’re right.

In 2015, Canada ranked 9th for quality of life — considering factors like cost of living, climate, access to home ownership, and more.

Today, it barely holds onto a spot in the top 30. ⬇️ pic.twitter.com/hh8xj0m5gh

Of all the reasons not to elect Mark Carney as the next prime minister of Canada on Monday, his history as the world’s leading corporate booster of achieving “net zero emissions” by 2050 is the biggest.

Putting Carney, the UN’s Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance, and co-chair of the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero — “relentlessly, ruthlessly, absolutely focused on the transition to net zero” in Carney’s words — will mean cutting our own economic throat.

AC/DC’s Thunderstruck is blasted when Mark Carney walks into rallies and events.

Odd song choice for an expensive suit trying to portray the image of a solid, steady banker whose economic brilliance will rescue Canadians from the wreckage caused by the Liberal party members he leads, endorses, and advised for years.
