HOLY COW. Same oil price. Totally different reality. 2014: $100 oil → $1.30/L gas Today: $100 oil → $1.85/L gas That’s a 50¢ jump with NO change in global price. What changed? Higher taxes More debt Weaker dollar They didn’t fix affordability. They BROKE IT

Look to steep price increases before the May 24 weekend and then, possibly, moves by governments to restrict use as a 1.2 billion (and growing) oil supply deficit won’t be fixed for several months

"To hear our Prime Minister, Mark Carney, describe our relationship with the United States as a weakness is deeply concerning. It's simply a poor choice of words. The largest economy in the history of the world sits just south of us—it cannot be ignored. I’m at a major food innovation show here in Montreal, and Americans are here to do business in Canada, just as Canadian companies are eager to do the same, despite the senseless political rhetoric."

Conservative MP Kelly DeRidder just stood up in the House of Commons and called it exactly what it is. The Carney Liberals aren’t just changing the Standing Orders to stack committees and kill debate — they’re actively approaching and trying to recruit Conservative MPs to cross the floor and prop up their stolen majority. Democracy is DYING in Canada. They couldn’t win the seats at the ballot box, so now they’re trying to BUY or STEAL them behind closed doors. Kelly DeRidder isn’t playing their game. She’s exposing the whole corrupt playbook. This is what a real MP looks like. Stand strong, Kelly. Canada is watching. 🔥🇨🇦 #KellyDeRidder #CDNPoli #PowerGrab #FloorCrossing #DemocracyIsDying

HE SHOWED UP Mark Carney actually showed up in the House of Commons. He probably regrets that decision. Pierre Poilievre obliterate Mark Carney Caucus members are scrambling to pick up all the pieces Even Mark Carney‘s comebacks were weak.

POILIEVRE: Carney, you doubled the deficit. CARNEY: I reduced the deficit. How is increasing the deficit from $31 BILLION to $65 BILLION reducing it? What kind of Liberal math is that??? 🤔

I have an idea...

OUTRAGEOUS!!! Immediately after giving themselves a majority on committee and DESPITE promising they wouldn’t shut down investigations, what was the very first thing they did? Shut down an investigation into a $300 million scandal. Shameful.

The Liberals and CBC do not want you to see this video. It will be TAKEN DOWN We are UNITED 🇨🇦🇺🇸 🔥❤️ America 🇺🇸 is NOT an ENEMY

NO SHOW CARNEY strikes again. While Pierre Poilievre delivered a MASTER CLASS in the House today, Squeaky & Steven MacKinnon got MOPPED UP. Carney dodges Question Period like it's his full-time job. Canadians deserve a PM who shows up not one who hides. Poilievre is ready to lead.

BREAKING @KellyDeRidderMP outlines how the Liberals have been actively trying to recruit her, to cross the floor. She outlines how they do it. How they engage in the conversations. And what they offered her. THIS IS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH DEMOCRACY. It’s all about power

An #OPP officer has died following a motorcycle crash on Highway 401 eastbound near County Road 18 in #Cobourg. The male officer was pronounced dead on scene. Three other officers were transported to hospital with minor injuries after they crashed while responding to the scene. Both directions closed for @OPP_CR investigation. @OPPCommissioner

A civil lawsuit against floor crosser Marilyn Gladu is being organized by the constituents of the Sarnia - Lambton - Bkejwanong riding, for breach of fiduciary duty stating she ran on Conservative promises, took Conservative donations and votes then crossed the floor to Liberals

We are learning that the Liberal government, now holding the slimmest of majorities in the House of Commons, intends to assert control over all parliamentary committees—over votes, witness selection, points of order, agendas, and more. Committee work is among the most important responsibilities of Parliamentarians, full stop. It is where legislation is thoroughly examined to ensure that decisions made by government serve the best interests of all Canadians. While the Liberals are entitled to seek greater control, what I witnessed firsthand in Ottawa last week was troubling: a tone of arrogance, along with the mistreatment of some witnesses who expressed views not aligned with the party in power. This is what is unfolding, and Canadians should be aware. Parliament will look very different over the next three years—even with only a razor-thin majority.

Some of you will remember, Michael Kovrig, a former Canadian diplomat who was held hostage in China for 3 years, while his own government essentially left him to rot. His take here on Mark Carney's move to slide further into bed with the communist regime is bang on IMO. Carney is an embarrasing traitorous cuck to the CCP, IMO.

🇲🇽🇨🇦 A Canadian tourist was shot and killed at the Teotihuacán pyramids near Mexico City. The shooter then turned the gun on himself. One of the most visited sites on Earth. No one is safe anywhere.

FUNNY Mark Carney’s entirely owned by the United States. His kids go to school in the US. His wife lives in the US. Everything about him is American Pierre Poilievre is a Canadian patriot. Canada first. He is not owned by America. Liberals TRICKED Elbows up VOTERS

It was my 27th time testifying in Ottawa yesterday, but my first before the House Affairs Committee. I explained what happened with La Presse, and how my 25-year collaboration with the paper was halted following personal comments I made about how public funding may be influencing editorial decisions across the country. I never once criticized La Presse itself—yet here we are. In Ottawa, several witnesses, including Peter Menzies, former editor of the Calgary Herald and Calgary Sun, expressed similar concerns. Something needs to change. The public is not being properly informed about critical issues affecting agriculture, food security, affordability, and more. No media would report on this today, for obvious reasons. Very few media outlets examined how counter-tariffs impacted food prices. It took the U.S. Ambassador to Canada—an American—to acknowledge that Canada was in breach of CUSMA, not our own media. Prime Minister Mark Carney eliminated those counter-tariffs shortly afterward. It also took three full days before anyone asked where the $14 billion would come from to fund the grocery benefit program. Media are not to blame—they are doing their best under tremendous pressure. Public funding for media is not inherently the problem. The issue is that funding private media has become partisan, and that, in my view, makes a significant difference. After 25 years, I can say something has changed—dramatically—and it is not good for our democracy.

"It took three days for any reporter to ask Prime Minister Mark Carney where the $14 billion would come from to support the grocery benefit program. And it took the U.S. Ambassador to Canada—an American—to tell Canadians in August 2025 that we were in breach of CUSMA and that counter-tariffs were driving grocery prices higher. Prime Minister Carney eliminated those counter-tariffs just two weeks later. Our media is sleepwalking—and that weakens our democracy."
