From before Carney was PM and throughout the last year he and the Liberals have been telling Canadians how they’ve been “growing the economy” they repeatedly said the IMF predicts Canada to have the fastest growing economy” It’s been an endless drum beat from them. Anyone who questioned it was ignored or ridiculed. Will people finally wake up & understand that this is what they do, tell us day in and day out that everything is great when in reality it’s not. Here are some clips highlighting the nonstop gaslighting from the PM & others.

Column: The laughable claims of Trudeau’s climate warriors Myths die hard in Ottawa & one of the hardest to kill is that Trudeau was on track to meet Canada’s climate change targets under his failed $200-billion-plus strategy, before Carney blew it up. torontosun.com/news/national/…

Labour Minister Patty Hajdu is the latest cabinet minister to be caught red handed lying to the public. She invoked Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code on August 16, 2025 to impose binding arbitration on 10,517 Air Canada flight attendants. Her justification was that organ and tissue deliveries were at risk. A Blacklock's ATIP filed on April 27, 2026 revealed there was no evidence for that claim. Records showed Air Canada's actual concern was over lost tourism fares. This was not a one-off. Since June 2024 alone the federal government used Section 107 five times: WestJet, CN and CPKC railways, BC and Quebec ports, Canada Post, and Air Canada. The Air Canada flight attendant ban was the eighth strike intervention in a year, a record for any federal government. The government ended the CN/CPKC strike less than 17 hours in. The Air Canada strike lasted less than 12 hours before Section 107 was invoked. In 2015 the Supreme Court of Canada ruled the right to strike is a constitutional right. A 2016 Ontario court confirmed outright strike bans are unconstitutional. Legal experts say the repeated use of Section 107 likely violates workers' constitutional right to strike under the Charter. The flight attendants were fighting in part for pay for work performed before the plane left the ground. Unpaid work. They were ordered back on the basis of a claim about organ transplants that no government department has any record of. The Liberal Party campaigns as the party of workers. How can they reconcile that with their ongoing refusal to allow workers to strike?

"Chicken farmers in Canada will need to be more honest with Canadians about the shortcomings of supply management, the record amount of American chicken entering Canada, and growing concerns about halal chicken. These issues aren't going away."

If Canada (still) has the best US trade deal in the world like @MarkJCarney says, then why is Canada the only G7 in recession? ⬇️

As an Ontarian watching this… I’m actually speechless 🤦🏻‍♂️ Doug Ford is now out here saying “we can’t keep delaying” US trade talks and “we need to get to the table” ASAP ahead of the CUSMA deadline. This is the **SAME** Doug Ford who ordered **ALL** American booze pulled from LCBO shelves in 2025 — and still refuses to put it back until the US “concedes” in the trade war. The same guy whose government blew **$75 MILLION** of Ontario taxpayer dollars on big anti-tariff ads in the US (that even Mark Carney reportedly begged him to pull). But now — literally the day after Carney goes south and says a “strong Canada will help Make America Great Again” — Ford suddenly flips the script and wants urgency? This is what “leadership” looks like in Ontario? Pure political theatre. Ontario — be honest, are you buying this sudden change of heart?

🚨SECRET ORDERS IN C-22🚨 Meta warned Parliament that Bill C-22 could secretly force companies to make privacy-altering changes, then legally prevent them from telling Canadians what changed. So I submitted a parliamentary brief of my own.

Six hundred generators “missing” from Alberta’s biggest proposed data centre application. And we’re told these billion-dollar AI projects are being carefully planned? I’m pro-growth. I’m pro-data centres. But if you forget 600 generators in the paperwork, maybe the problem isn’t the regulators. albertatribune.ca/technology/alb…

Canada’s technical recession has more troubling implications than many would consider at first glance… “For months all of this has been blamed on Tariffs” Melanie Paradis absolutely nails it here. It doesn’t matter how much you rely on what various economists say, or try to sweep it under a rug. This is not good for the people on the ground who have to live with it.

1 in 10 people in Canada’s biggest city can’t afford to eat. It took 38 years for Toronto food banks to reach 1 million visits. Two years to reach 2 million. One year to reach 3 million. The most recent report recorded 4.1 million visits. In Canada's richest city. In a country with the third largest oil reserves in the world. Carney says affordability has never been better in over a decade. Do you believe him?

The Economic LongWave@TheELongWave·
Canada Real Home Prices vs Real Wages 1921-2022 This is not 1989–1996. This is not 2008–2012. And this is not even 1929–1933. The chart tells you why. In every previous Canadian housing downturn, prices were stretched, but the relationship between real house prices and real wages had not completely broken. This time, it has. From 1921 to 2000, Canadian real house prices and real wages moved in the same broad economic universe. After 2000, house prices detached from wages and became purely credit-backed assets. By 2022: Real house prices: 1,223 Real wages: 453 That gap is the bubble. It means housing prices were no longer supported by income growth. They were supported by falling interest rates, expanding mortgage credit, longer amortizations, investor speculation, HELOCs, and the belief that government and banks would never allow prices to fall. That is why this is different. 1989–1996 was a regional housing bust. 2008–2012 was interrupted by a massive monetary rescue. 1929–1933 was a debt-deflation collapse, but Canada’s modern household debt and real estate exposure are far larger relative to wages. This chart shows the central problem: The blue line is the credit economy. The orange line is the real economy. Economic Winter begins when the credit economy is forced back toward the real economy. That is why the coming adjustment is not just a housing correction. It is the unwinding of an entire financialized economic model.

Canada -- from "Elbows up" and "catalyzing the economy" to "make American Great again" and "recession" in under a year.

A single dose of doxycycline can decrease the risk of contracting Lyme disease after a tick bite from 3% to 1%. Allergic reactions to doxycycline are extremely rare - the lowest of all antibiotics. @US_FDA should make single-dose doxycycline available to the public without a prescription.

Carson Binda of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation on CBC discussing the billion dollars taxpayers are footing for the FIFA games "They told us it would cost $230 million to host a handful of World cup soccer games. Now they're telling us the final price tag will be closer to $729 million. That's a 217% increase for B.C. taxpayers." "And we're not hosting any of those big games that draw thousands, millions of viewers from around the world." "So I find those projections from FIFA very hard to believe" "But this big party is coming at a cost of about $104 million per minute. That is a heck of a bill for a party." @BindaCarson @taxpayerDOTcom
