Canada’s Corrupt Liberal Government

On the surface, the results of last night’s Canadian by-elections would be significant enough. The Liberals, under Prime Minister Mark Carney, achieved majority status by winning two safe downtown Toronto seats, also eking out a win against the Bloc Québécois in suburban Montreal. But the truth is that Carney won his majority even before Monday, after an extraordinary string of floor-crossings in which five opposition MPs defected to the Liberals, with more rumored on the way. It has decisively put an end to the precarious minority status which emerged from last year’s general election.

In trying to address his inability to strike a trade deal with the US, Prime Minister Mark Carney’s alternative to gain access to the European Union (EU) market is something I wanted to argue poses a threat to Canada’s sovereignty. That’s how I feel, particularly about Canada joining the EU as a member state.

But, while I found that Carney’s solution to perceived overreliance on the US does indeed contain a serious threat to Canada, it’s not from the EU.

OTTAWA — Nearly one year after the spring election that led to the election of his minority government, Prime Minister Mark Carney now has his majority.

Now what?

Monday evening’s byelection results — with the Liberals retaining two Toronto-area seats — coupled with the stunning floor-crossing of Conservative MP Marilyn Gladu to Carney’s ranks last week, pushed the Liberals solidly into majority government territory. Another byelection on Monday, in Quebec’s Terrebonne riding, could add to the Liberal margin if the party can fend of a fierce challenge from the Bloc Québécois.

‘It’s time to get serious,’ Carney says after byelection sweep delivers him a majority government

Prime Minister Mark Carney says he will use his newly won majority to push through legislation that the opposition parties have stymied in recent years, saying his immediate focus will be quickly passing affordability measures and a bill designed to turbocharge home construction.

The Liberal candidates in two Toronto ridings trounced their opponents in Monday’s byelections, improving on the party’s already strong showing in both seats at the last general election. The party also won a closely fought contest in Terrebonne, a Montreal-area riding that has long been a Bloc Québécois stronghold.

Carney framed those victories, particularly the one in Quebec, as a strong endorsement of the government’s agenda.

A day after sweeping three byelections in Ontario and Quebec that gave him a majority in the House of Commons, Prime Minister Mark Carney has announced that he is temporarily removing the federal excise tax on gas and diesel.

The move means that the cost of gas will drop by ten cents on a litre of gasoline and four cents per litre of diesel starting Monday and lasting until Labour Day.

The fuel tax holiday, which Carney said would also see the four cent per litre excise tax removed on aviation fuel, is expected to cost an estimated $2.4 billion.

In his address to last weekend’s Liberal convention, Prime Minister Mark Carney once again emphasized the need for Canada to rethink its dependence on the U.S.

“A good number of our historic strengths, which came from our close ties with the U.S., have become our weaknesses,” Carney said in French to the Montreal crowd.

Prime Minister Mark Carney has secured the first Liberal government since 2019. That’s right — in case you hadn’t noticed, Canada has been operating under minority governments for seven years. Two were won by Justin Trudeau in 2019 and 2021, one by Carney in 2025. Trudeau’s minorities necessitated significant compromise with the NDP; from 2021 until the fall of 2024, he was bound by a supply and confidence agreement with then NDP leader Jagmeet Singh, who extracted a series of concessions on childcare, dental care, and pharmacare.

Blah blah blah

This is a time to come together so we can build a Canada strong for all.

OTTAWA — Mark Carney’s minority government transformed into a slim but workable majority in Parliament courtesy of two Monday night byelection victories in Toronto, meaning the prime minister can now more easily advance his high-spending economic and defence agenda over any opposition objections.

The majority gives Carney greater control over parliamentary committee membership and votes in the House of Commons. More importantly, it gives him the luxury of time to govern as he sees fit amid global turmoil.

With 173 of 343 seats in the House of Commons, Carney has up to three more years before he will need to call a federal election.

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s minority government has become a majority thanks to a projected Liberal win in University-Rosedale.

Results are still coming in Scarborough Southwest, another Toronto riding the Liberals won comfortably in last year’s federal election, and Terrebonne, which they won by a single vote.

The federal Liberals are now the strongest party in the country, as was amply on display at their convention in Montreal over the weekend.

It’s not their politics that have put them there, as was also clear in Montreal. It’s the absence of politics — the ability to shape-shift into a force that can’t be pinned down as right or left, progressive or conservative.

Aside from Carney it’s the same grifters working the same grifts.
