@UnpopularO41346 @PierrePoilievre He's flailing. And his arguments are ridiculous. What else am I looking at then?

@BenLP9 @PierrePoilievre Like saying 'sodomize yourself with class' Retarded take...

Liberal Mark Carney is spending $200 million of your money to turn a gravel pit into a money pit for Liberal insiders.

@TrendPolCa @MarkJCarney See full clip and make up your own mind. She gets another question after. She asks her questions @ 43 minutes cpac.ca/headline-polit…

WATCH: Prime Minister @MarkJCarney has spat with Bloomberg reporter, repeatedly interrupting and lecturing her about not reading into his answer.

@JeffBallingall This clip is overblown. He continues to take her questions after. At 43:00: cpac.ca/headline-polit…

If this was Harper or Pierre, it’d be wall to wall coverage and fodder for dozens of columns and panels.

@47_Ronin1 @ezralevant Had O'Toole been around after Trudeau he probably would've scored very differently. O'Toole was likeable and could sway Liberals.

@ezralevant That’s a lie, O’Toole’s 2021 CPC won popular vote (33.7%) but lost 2 seats (119 total) vs Scheer 2019, failing to form government. Levant loves cherry-picking data to make his statements be seem credible —O’Toole’s moderate strategy underperformed Ezra’s always a lying bitch

O’Toole got 8% fewer votes and 25 fewer seats than Poilievre. Not sure he’s the best advisor on how to win. But O’Toole is an expert on carbon taxes and Covid mandates, and banning MPs from supporting the truckers. And on being disloyal for a few pieces of silver

@shuvmajumdar So you were the slow kid in class, huh? 🥺

So Canada is STILL the ONLY G7 country that hasn’t concluded a deal with the US. France, Germany, Italy (via EU), Japan, and the UK have all secured agreements or frameworks with the Trump administration to address or reduce the broad “reciprocal” tariffs (and related Section 232/301 measures) imposed starting in 2025. And here the CBC is misleading Canadians on Canada-US trade. The public deserves accuracy, not false narratives that distract. “In 2024, Canadian exports to the US amounted to $419 billion USD, our next biggest market was China at $21 billion USD. We can’t pivot away from that kind of market overnight; we need to stop playing games, get to the table and get a deal.” - @brianlilley torontosun.com/opinion/column…

@ForMYCanada Absolutely but AFAIK this bill doesn't even go there. They'll have to but it's probably a more contentious topic.

@BenLP9 Why my lunch yesterday cost less €3 per person, including wine. Competitive pricing laws. Less grocery conglomerats, more independent grocers, weekly farmers markets, community gardens.

🧾 Pierre Poilievre spent two years screaming about grocery prices. Yesterday, Parliament voted on Bill C-226, a national framework to improve food price transparency, and force grocery chains to show Canadians where the money actually goes. Poilievre voted NO. Every Conservative voted NO. 📊 Final tally: 168 Yea. 150 Nay. The bill passed, no thanks to the party that built its entire brand on "axe the tax" and grocery affordability. 🎭 This is the pattern. The grievance is the product. Solving the problem would end the grift. When there's an actual mechanism to hold grocers accountable, Conservatives fold for the industry every single time. Poilievre doesn't want lower food prices. He wants the issue. #cdnpoli x.com/i/status/20470…

@JigglyPants44 I don't mind someone going down swinging I just struggle with the fact he doesn't seem to care if Canada is in the way.

This is the Dunning Kruger Effect, right?

@chriswarkentin He didn't cut her off - he clarified and then also answered her follow-up question. She's on at ~43 minutes: cpac.ca/headline-polit…

Hmmmm…..yesterday this guy said he would rather answer questions from reporters than MP’s. Apparently he doesn’t much like answering their questions either.

@emilyabrown2025 @43 minutes. Watch for yourself: cpac.ca/headline-polit…

@emilyabrown2025 She was mischaracterizating... He corrected her. The dialogue didn't end there because the clip did.

It seems Prime Minister Mark Carney doesn't like answering questions, period.

@smith71jason @JoelleAdler @PierrePoilievre It has arrows... It must be true. Someone has be n having too much fun with AI rendering infographics. Even the US stopped calling money to Ukraine a scam - they've been actively auditing all donations. It's not 100% perfect like it isn't in Canada but it's pretty damn good.

@JoelleAdler @PierrePoilievre Here are the connections to UKRAINE. Never-ending money scams. 4 more years.

@ForMYCanada Text of the bill (1 page - anyone can understand this): parl.ca/DocumentViewer…

@ForMYCanada To everyone saying it adds costs, it's a known fact that transparency in an economic system improves efficiency (i.e.: reduces prices). The intent is to set a national standard so food prices are easier to compare. Ex: Bananas: 0.10$/ 100g Organic bananas: 0.20$/ 100g

@ForMYCanada Some grocery stores and chains already do this but it's not always easy to see, to read or the unit comparison can change Ex: per gram here, per ml there That's it.

@WalterB691727 @ForMYCanada The text is like 2 pages long. It's super straightforward: parl.ca/DocumentViewer… Poilievre just doesn't want to "give" anything to Carney. His only agenda is making him look bad, even if that hurts our country.

@ForMYCanada Did you think to ask why? Pierre Poilievre and Conservatives voted against it because , “It won’t lower food prices”, the bill Adds bureaucracy / red tape and increases regulation rather than fix affordability. It would also be a Federal overreach into provincial/market areas.

@BiankaB12 @EdBraiman @goodstructure @anneapplebaum Great summary Bianka 👌 We're all thankful for the US contribution but the US will probably be net positive after you account for all : repairs, replacement parts, training, services, ammunition, etc. that UKR & the West continues to purchase from US

For what it's worth, I find it genuinely unfair that so many American citizens have been misled by their own government, and by much of the media, about how aid to Ukraine actually works. You're quoting the top-line figure in good faith - that's what's been put in front of the public - but those numbers don't tell the full story. Of the ~$188B Congress has made available since 2022, about $ 130B reached Ukraine, and even that figure is inflated by how military aid is valued. Most (not all) military deliveries came through as old equipment pulled from US stockpiles, much of it sitting in warehouses for decades, long since paid for. It's priced at replacement cost, not depreciated book value. The DoD itself later admitted it had overvalued PDA transfers by $6B and corrected the books. For items like DPICM cluster munitions, the US was going to pay to demilitarise them anyway - roughly $2,000 per ton, out of a $16B disposal stockpile. Donating them instead saved taxpayers tens to hundreds of millions in destruction costs alone. Sending an aging Stinger or an artillery shell bound for the incinerator to a country that can actually use it was, on any honest accounting, a bargain. And the replenishment money - the dollars appropriated to "backfill" what was drawn down - overwhelmingly never leaves the US. Estimates I've seen put roughly $60–70B of the $113B appropriated at that point flowing straight to Raytheon, Lockheed, and contractors across dozens of states. That isn't aid to Ukraine in any meaningful sense, but a domestic industrial stimulus that upgrades US stockpiles with newer variants of the old gear shipped out. None of this is a scandal in itself. It's a defensible arrangement - the US offloads inventory it was going to destroy, revitalises its manufacturing base, and helps a partner defend itself, all on the same line item. What's dishonest is how flat and unqualified the number has been presented to the public. Average citizens can't be expected to dig through GAO filings and Kiel tracker methodology notes - that's precisely the job of government, institutions, and the press. People deserve the facts.

This alone is more money than the US ever spent in Ukraine

@MaxymLab Ou comme dirait Pérusse... Regarde donc ça j'ai mis un soulier pis un patin à matin 🤪
