Chevron has now fully divested from Alberta’s oilsands. It believes investing in Venezuela is less risky than investing in Mark Carney’s Canada.

'A new report by RBC has estimated that Canada lost $1 trillion in investment between 2015 and 2024' nationalpost.com/opinion/why-ma…

Mark Carney just did a 10 minute national address Saying trade with the United States is broken We just found out that he has not engage engaged in trade negotiation since October Something big is coming in. Canadians are not going to like it.

The Prime Minister’s video is another illusion. He says he wants a permanent rupture with our biggest customer while he keeps 90% of his personal investments in the U.S. He has doubled the deficit, negotiated no new free trade deals with any other country, approved no pipelines, and given Canada the worst food inflation, the worst household debt, the worst housing costs, and the only shrinking economy in the G7. Fear is not a plan. We must reverse Liberal taxes, deficits, and anti-resource laws so we can be affordable, safe, and strong at home.

@ikwilson @MarkJCarney @liberal_party Imagine suggesting this and living your life completely contrary.

@ikwilson @DontEatCats Carney just said to the world “who cares” about Canada-US relations. He destroyed the CUSMA negotiations and is trying to save face.

Imagine having a political leader seriously suggesting we abandon trade with the largest economy in the world--our closest neighbour, lowest-cost partner, and biggest customer. Canada sends ~75% of its exports to the U.S. For Alberta it's closer to ~85–90%. That’s not a minor relationship you can “pivot” away from overnight--it’s the backbone of our economy. You don’t strengthen a country by picking fights with your primary customer. You don’t create jobs by making it harder to sell what we produce. Albertans understand this. We rely on access to U.S. markets, and we have no interest in reckless strategies that gamble with our livelihoods. Strong countries don’t act out of impulse. They act in their economic self-interest. That’s what an independent Alberta will do. Vote yes on Oct. 19. #AlbertaIndependence

Food for thought. Chevron’s move into Venezuela says more about the new world than any communiqué from Ottawa. What Canada needs now is concrete deals and shovels in the ground at home, not another performative boondoggle dressed up as an investor summit. In recent weeks, as war and great‑power tension have snapped energy security back to the top of the agenda, Chevron has signed a deal to pour fresh capital into Venezuela’s Orinoco Belt. It is increasing its stake in a major joint venture and securing new drilling rights in one of the world’s dirtiest heavy‑oil basins, because Gulf Coast refineries need those barrels now. That is how capital behaves when energy security, not climate targets, is the first priority. Against that backdrop, Prime Minister Mark Carney will host 100 of the world’s biggest investors in Toronto this September, pitching Canada as a safe, green home for their trillions. It is an odd spectacle for a country that has spent a decade in an investment drought. Business spending has lagged peers, capital per worker has slipped, and Canadian firms and pension funds have put more money abroad than at home. Trillions have passed through Canadian hands. Too little has stayed. The core irony is that the problem is not the barrel. It is the politics wrapped around it. Canadian heavy crude is already cleaner and more tightly regulated than Venezuelan heavy. Alberta producers operate under carbon pricing, methane rules and environmental standards that Venezuela does not match. If the world is going to burn heavy oil for decades yet, it is rational to prefer more Canadian barrels and fewer Venezuelan ones. Yet the fresh capital is going to Caracas, not Calgary. Canada has turned its advantage into a liability. Ambitious climate policy has often been implemented in a way that feels performative to investors: ever‑shifting rules, sprawling reviews, talk of hard caps and now an emerging expectation that large‑scale carbon capture is a de facto requirement for future growth. Each measure can be defended on its own terms. Taken together, they signal a jurisdiction where politics moves faster than permits and long‑term projects are continually reopened. Pipelines crystallize the issue. For a decade, Canadian leaders have talked about “economic sovereignty” and reducing dependence on the U.S. market. The minimum requirement is obvious: east–west pipelines to tidewater so Canadian oil can reach Europe and Asia. Instead, major projects have been cancelled or delayed, and the only large expansion has required a federal rescue and long overruns. The most reliable route to tidewater for Canadian barrels still runs south, through American pipes and American politics. The environmental outcome is as perverse as the economic one. By making it harder and riskier to invest in relatively cleaner Canadian heavy, Canada constrains supply that could displace higher‑emissions barrels from places like Venezuela. Demand does not disappear; it shifts to producers with weaker standards. On paper, slower growth in domestic output and higher carbon prices can be presented as climate progress. In practice, what matters is which barrels actually get burned. What Canada needs now is not another stage‑managed gathering in Toronto, but bankable projects, clear approvals and real deals on Canadian soil. The world has changed; energy security is back at the top of the hierarchy. Canada, sitting on cleaner crude in a dirtier world, needs to wake up and act like it. cbc.ca/news/business/…

Trudeau & Carney are ALL IN on Net Zero 🤦🏻‍♂️ Canada is only **1.7%** of global emissions… yet they’re willing to push us into poverty, kill our manufacturing, and ship everything to China & India — who together pump out approximately **80%** of global emissions. This isn’t about saving the planet. It’s about making Canada 🇨🇦 100% dependent on the countries that are the biggest threat to us and the USA 🇺🇸 Meanwhile the Liberals scream “Trump is the BIG BAD Orange 🍊 Man” to keep their base scared… while Carney acts like a schoolgirl with a crush every time he’s near TRUMP and has publicly praised him multiple times. The hypocrisy is **UNLIMITED** ❌ What’s the one Net Zero lie you’re most tired of hearing? Drop it below 👇 #cdnpoli #NetZero

@MarkJCarney @CarrieDraws What about the trillions that we already have lost? “According to a 2026 RBC analysis, Canada has experienced a $1-trillion+ net investment outflow (capital flight) between 2015 and 2024, the largest in its history” Wake up!!!!!

Canada has what the world wants. The Canada Investment Summit will help catalyse billions in new investments right here at home — and that means more opportunity for Canadian businesses, and more high-paying careers for Canadian workers.

@CarrieDraws @MarkJCarney

@Eric_LVX @MarkJCarney Oh look, yet another Canadian vomiting American talking points! It's really ramped up now, because Canada is going to succeed, and oh no, America won't be able to access the vast resources without competition. Hope you're getting paid for being a dishonest 🧰

@MarioNawfal Mario - Here is what 10 yrs of globalist liberals have done to the great canada I grew up in: China✅ Ukraine✅ Palestine✅ NATO✅ WEF ✅ Canadian economy ❌ US Trade War ❌ High cost housing ❌ High taxes ❌ Unemployment ❌ Immigration Control 🥷 ❌ Pathetic 🙏🇨🇦

🇨🇦 Canada's PM just called the US relationship a weakness Mark Carney's first major message is that sending 70% of your exports to one country, especially when that country is threatening your economy, is a strategic liability. He invoked the War of 1812. That's the Canadian version of "we've been here before and we didn't fold." The trade treaty review is coming, and US officials are already telegraphing major changes. Carney is signaling he won't be passive when it happens. Source: NY Post, Reuters

@CarrieDraws @MarkJCarney @CarrieDraws Time will tell if Carney and the Liberals will come out on top. Unfortunately, you seem to have your head in the sand. It’s been 10 years that Canada has been in decline. Look at the economic situation the numbers don’t lie…wake up!

🚨🇨🇦 Mark Carney just told the nation that Canada’s ties to the U.S. 🇺🇸 are a "weakness." 🚫 If that’s true, why is 91% of his personal wealth still sitting in U.S. holdings? 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 Why are his kids at U.S. universities? 🇺🇸 Why is Diana Carney still collecting checks from U.S. corporations? If the U.S. is such a threat to Canada, lead by example: Liquidate. Sell the stocks. 🇺🇸 Bring the kids home. 🏛️ You can’t lecture us on "independence" while your family's future is built on the American economy. 🇺🇸 Pure hypocrisy. 🤔 @MarkJCarney #CdnPoli #MarkCarney #ConflictOfInterest #Trump #USA #Hypocrisy

🇺🇸 Nick Shirley's response to the bill against him: "I'm just trying to help U.S. They should be working with me to crack down on this fraud. Instead, they want to make me look like the bad person." Saying the obvious won't get you safe from trouble💀 x.com/EricLDaugh/sta…

@nypost Canada if done

PM Carney says Canada's US ties have become a weakness trib.al/I4t0Ejy
