Gladu on January 11, 2026, “Really, the whole point of being an MP is to represent your constituents. So if they’re voting you in under one platform –for you to switch for whatever reasons, just seems to me to not be representing what you’re supposed to be there to represent. “We elected you under this banner, and if you don’t want to be under that banner, then we deserve a chance to have a redo.”

@MarkJCarney So we are just ignoring the electorate now? We are becoming a dictatorship and canadiens are too weak to do anything about it.

Mark Carney
Mark Carney@MarkJCarney·
At this important moment for our country’s future, Canadians with a broad range of experience and perspectives are uniting to build Canada strong. I am honoured to welcome Marilyn Gladu today as the newest member of this government and our Liberal caucus. In a time of global economic uncertainty, Canada’s success will depend on how we build ambition into progress and strengths into sustained advantage. Marilyn brings the practical, results-driven leadership this effort demands. Having spent decades of her career in engineering and international business, she understands what it takes to create good jobs, strengthen supply chains, and ensure Canadian industry can compete in a rapidly changing global economy. She has been elected by the people of Sarnia—Lambton–Bkejwanong in four straight elections since 2015, and repeatedly earned recognition from colleagues across Parliament for her proven willingness to work constructively across party lines. I’m looking forward to working closely with Marilyn to build a stronger and more independent Canadian economy, meeting the challenges of a changing world with lasting opportunities for all.

@E_R_Sepulveda No, it's because nobody wants to be in the presence of an insane migrant or a drug addict having an episode on the subway. Subways smell like shit and literally, everyone hates them now.

Toronto's wealthy are opting out of the TTC, increasingly taking Uber and Lyft—and leaving a fiscal hole in the public system the rest of us depend on. In transportation, we're now seeing the same high-income flight that we've already seen in health and education. The rich exit. The public system suffers fiscally—and, because of the service cuts that follow, politically too. Progressive taxation has always been the answer: tax the private luxury good to fund the public good. New York figured this out in 2018. They capped ride-hailing vehicles and slapped a $2.75/trip levy on every Uber and Lyft ride. That single policy now generates more than $300 million a year—plowed directly into the transit system used by working-class New Yorkers. Toronto has done nothing. No cap. No levy. No accountability. Just 80,000 licensed ride-hailing drivers—more per capita than NYC—circling a city whose transit system still sits at only 82% of pre-pandemic ridership. The math isn't complicated: ride-hailing mostly used by the wealthy is cannibalizing the TTC. A per-trip levy on every ride should fund the public transit those trips displace. My latest in @jacobin in the reply.

This house is near a nice elementary school in my area. In 1974, on a $12k teacher's salary, this home could easily be purchased for $18,700. In 2026, teachers make $55k. They can't afford a $485k house. Why don't boomers understand how bad it is out there?!

Boomer here. I bought my first house after ten years of saving like crazy. And the interest was 14.5%. I don’t know where kids got the idea that they were due a house and new car at college graduation, but that’s NOT how it ever was.

@ReiverHall @athabaskanelite Legalize institutionalizing boomers and older generation Xers. Take away their vote power and confiscate their assets. Boomers and older Gen Xers are by far the greediest and most selfish generation in history. It's time to act.

@athabaskanelite 1. Gen X, not a boomer; 2. I wasn’t aware you wanted a radical redistribution of property, will that extend to the means of production so we achieve true communism, or did you just want a handout?

We need to put all boomers into camps, have the state appropriate all their property for distribution to millenials and zoomers, and then put all the boomers in old folks homes to be forgotten about.

@Mareusque @athabaskanelite What have you done to merit the privilege of being Canadian? You’re not a pioneer, etc. You’re just content to live in what you see as their reflected glory.

🚨🇨🇦 Mark Carney could possibly be the first Canadian Prime Minister in our history to achieve a majority government that nobody voted for. Between floor-crossers and the April 13 byelections, we are seeing a "technical majority" engineered in backrooms, not at the ballot box. When this happens, we no longer have a Democracy. 🇨🇦 @MarkJCarney @liberal_party #cdnpoli #MarkCarney #Democracy #GeneralElectionNow #AxeTheTax

Toronto neighbourhood of Rosedale has so much crime and break ins that they are hiring private security guards to patrol the streets. They voted 64% Liberal last election for Chrystia Freeland. There is a by-election there now. You think they learned their lesson?

India's policy of deliberately exporting its excess population to create obedient diasporas which poison every country they occupy is a genuine grounds for a just war.
Juno News@junonewscom

PM Mark Carney on Canada–India relations: "Canada's relations with India have evolved. It's one of respect, one of engagement, and one of deepening commercial ties." Should Canada pursue closer ties with India despite persistent concerns over foreign interference?

This is a great new ad from the Conservative Party of Canada. The next time you go to vote, ask yourself this question: After 11 years of Liberal government, are you better or worse off?

🚨HUGE CBC DOCUMENT LEAK🚨 CBC acknowledged “political concerns” and the need to defend itself ahead of the 2025 election. Then pushed the CRTC for rules that would shape what Canadians see online. This is bigger than it looks.

Bro. You see that quick resume and Backward compatibility that the Xbox has? It trumps everything that the PlayStation has. You can turn off your game, unplug it from the socket for 2 months and when you plug it back in, your game will resume from where you last stopped like you didn’t turn it off at all. No loading up or anything. Just jump right back into the game. The only thing PlayStation has over Xbox is better exclusives for choice of games like The last of us, Ghost of Tsushima, Spiderman, God of War, Uncharted and the rest
