Dean you said it a little more bluntly 😂 But seriously, Mark Carney studied economics at Harvard, earned a master’s and doctorate from Oxford, spent 13 years at Goldman Sachs, then ran both the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England. You can disagree with the deal, but pretending this man doesn’t understand finance is just embarrassing.

To anyone who keeps repeating “51st state,” you’re free to keep saying it. But saying it over and over doesn’t make it any more realistic. Canada is not becoming part of the United States. We’re our own country, Canadians don’t want it, and it’s simply not going to happen. Feel free to bookmark this. 🇨🇦

@DrStoxx 😂We will never be the 51st state 🤣 You may know stocks, but you clearly don’t know Canadians. A few businesses considering a move doesn’t mean Canada is giving up its country. Feel free to bookmark this🥱we’re not becoming America. 🇨🇦

“You’re a paid Liberal, a bot, a commie, an idiot, a pedophile…” It’s always the same insults the second you disagree with them. Oh and the famous r-word, like that makes you more legitimate. Just have a normal conversation lets disagree, Without losing your ability to type a normal response. I’m just a regular Canadian living my life. I go out every day, talk to real people and see what’s happening around me in real time. I’m not sitting behind a keyboard all day, getting angry at everything and repeating whatever political account tells me to believe. Disagree with me all you want, but calling everyone names isn’t an argument. It just shows you’ve got nothing else. And this is why PP wil never be PM!

@jamiljivani x.com/i/status/20755… Jivani needs to step down. Instead of building rage-bait websites, maybe help the people in Clarington who elected you. They need an MP, not another full-time culture war influencer.
Bev 🇨🇦@Garnet_2203

An Open Letter to MP Jamil Jivani Mr. Jivani, As the Member of Parliament for Bowmanville–Oshawa North, your voice carries weight in this community. That is exactly why your silence on what has unfolded in Clarington is so troubling. Over the past weeks, a Muslim family in Clarington has been subjected to relentless public targeting, hostility, and rhetoric that many in this community view as racially and religiously charged, deeply harmful, and entirely unacceptable. Municipal officials stated there was no evidence to support the allegations being made, and the family was cleared of any wrongdoing. And yet, even after that, the public attacks, online commentary, and attempts to inflame division have continued. So I am asking plainly: why have you not publicly condemned it? Why have you not spoken out against the harassment, the racialized and religious hostility, and the public pile-on directed at a Muslim family that was cleared of any wrongdoing? Leadership is not just about speaking when it is politically convenient. It is about showing up when a community is being torn apart by fear, misinformation, and division. It is about making it clear that in Bowmanville, in Clarington, and anywhere in Durham Region, people should not be targeted because of their faith, race, background, where they come from, or the community they belong to. At a time when tensions are already high, rhetoric about “liberal racism,” reverse racism, and culture-war grievance politics does not heal communities. It does not calm fears. It does not bring neighbours together. It adds fuel to an already volatile situation and gives cover to the kind of division many of us are desperately trying to push back against. What makes your silence all the more glaring is that others have found the courage to speak. Mayor Adrian Foster publicly condemned the hate and division unfolding in Clarington. Yet from the federal representative for this riding, there has been no clear public condemnation of the attacks directed at this family. I have retained screenshots and documentation related to the public comments, posts, and exchanges referenced here. I am not reposting them publicly because I will not contribute to amplifying hateful content or further exposing a family that has already been targeted. However, that documentation can be provided privately to the appropriate authorities, elected officials, or media if necessary. People in this community deserve leadership that is clear, responsible, and unifying. They deserve an MP who will condemn hate without hedging, reject racism without qualification, and speak up when a family is being publicly vilified despite having been cleared of any wrongdoing. This should not be a partisan issue. It should not be a left-right issue. It should be a basic human issue. So again, I ask: where are you? Where is your voice for community safety, fairness, and decency? Where is your condemnation of the hate and harassment this family has faced? And how do you believe rhetoric that pits people against one another helps Clarington move forward? Our community does not need more division. It needs leadership, courage, and moral clarity. Sincerely, Bev. cbc.ca/news/canada/to…

Liberals Elites want to decide if you and your family get to be successful in Canada. They use words like "equity" and "diversity" to sound noble. But, really, they just want to control the distribution of opportunity. endliberalracism.ca

An Open Letter to MPP Todd McCarthy Mr. McCarthy, As the Member of Provincial Parliament for Durham, your responsibility extends far beyond Queen’s Park. You represent people here in Clarington, Bowmanville, Courtice, Newcastle, and the surrounding communities. That is why your silence on what has unfolded in Clarington is so troubling. Over the past weeks, a Muslim family in Clarington has been subjected to relentless public targeting, hostility, and rhetoric that many in this community view as racially and religiously charged, deeply harmful, and entirely unacceptable. Municipal officials stated there was no evidence to support the allegations being made, and the family was cleared of any wrongdoing. And yet, even after that, the public attacks, online commentary, and attempts to inflame division have continued. So I am asking plainly: why have you not spoken out? Why have you not publicly condemned the harassment, the racialized and religious hostility, and the public pile-on directed at a Muslim family in your own riding that was cleared of any wrongdoing? Leadership is not only about legislation, budgets, and government announcements. It is also about standing up when fear, misinformation, and scapegoating are tearing at the fabric of a community. It is about making it clear that in Durham Region, no family should be targeted because of their faith, race, background, where they come from, or the community they belong to. What makes your silence even harder to understand is that others have found the courage to speak. Mayor Adrian Foster publicly condemned the hate and division unfolding in Clarington. Yet from Durham’s provincial representative, there has been no clear public condemnation of the attacks directed at this family. And that raises a larger question: if Premier Doug Ford and his government are prepared to speak publicly about standing against Islamophobia and hate when it happens elsewhere in Ontario, why has there been no clear condemnation from his own Durham MPP when a Muslim family in Clarington has been publicly targeted after being cleared of any wrongdoing? If this government believes hate has no place in Ontario, that principle should not stop at the edge of Queen’s Park. It should apply here too. People in this community deserve leadership that is clear, responsible, and unifying. They deserve an MPP who will condemn hate without hedging, reject racism without qualification, and speak up when a family in his riding is being publicly vilified despite having been cleared of any wrongdoing. This should not be a partisan issue. It should not be a left-right issue. It should be a basic human issue. So again, I ask: where are you? Where is your voice for community safety, fairness, and decency? Where is your condemnation of the hate and harassment this family has faced? And why have you remained silent while a Muslim family in your own riding has been publicly targeted after being cleared of any wrongdoing? Clarington does not need more silence from those elected to lead. It needs courage, moral clarity, and representatives willing to stand up for the people they serve when it matters most. Sincerely, Bev durhamregion.com/news/outbreak-…

@myabradshaw78 Keep him. PLEASE KEEP HIM! He’s not a threat to Carney, he’s Carney’s best campaign ad. Every election needs a runner-up, and Pierre seems pretty committed to the role. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: PP will never be PM.

TDSB controls up to $20 billion in property, and the takeover handed a province appointed supervisor control over the Toronto Lands Corporation too. Add the new powers over school land sales and the lack of transparency,and people have every right to ask whether this was really only about the budget or whether valuable public land could end up benefiting developers close to the Ford government.

Ontario’s second-largest school board is facing questions after it unveiled an unexpected $42.3M surge in capital spending, while spec-ed funding falls. Critics argue the Ford government is investing in the wrong parts of the education system, prioritizing infrastructure over classroom needs. thetrillium.ca/insider-news/e…

Mario you know as well as I do that conservatives are the ones leading the way on trying to get rid of immigrants like us. Even though we came Here the proper way, we'll I don't know your true story but my family came here fleeing the Civil war. I get that it's not just conservative people all political party's have there own racists but conservatives just do it so much better and openly. Entonces digame Mario, como respondes al hecho de que to propose partido quiera deportarnos a los dos?

Exactly. Comparing Canadian media to North Korean propaganda isn’t serious criticism it’s hysterical hyperbole. Ryan is literally sharing a Financial Post/Bloomberg story reporting on a poll he doesn’t like, and somehow the existence of public opinion he disagrees with becomes “North Korean propaganda.” 😂 Canadians are allowed to think Carney is doing a good job. They’re also allowed to think he’s doing a terrible job. That’s called democracy. The irony is incredible-openly criticize the government, openly criticize the media, post it publicly to thousands of people without fear then claim you’re living under North Korean level propaganda. Gator you nailed it. This kind of ridiculous exaggeration is exactly why serious political criticism gets lost in the noise.

Jamil, here you go again. You see one adult in a costume you dislike, and somehow within a few sentences you have dragged in “moms and dads,” “leave their kids alone,” and “degeneracy.” Why the constant need to connect LGBTQ people with children and sexual danger? I’m a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. I know firsthand that predators don’t belong to one sexuality, one religion, one profession, one race or one political party. Yet people like you keep aiming the suspicion in one convenient direction while some of the most powerful institutions in society have documented histories of failing children. If you dislike the costume, criticize the costume. But stop using children as props for your culture war. Some of us actually lived through childhood sexual abuse.

According to Globe & Mail, calling out PM Carney for shaking hands with a guy wearing a pervert costume makes me a “prudish killjoy." No, it makes me normal. Go talk to more moms and dads and many of them will tell you to leave their kids alone and stop the public degeneracy.

Roman Why do you keep backing this loser? Pierre Poilievre went into the last election with a massive polling lead, years of campaigning, endless slogans and every opportunity to win and still lost to a guy who had barely entered electoral politics. At some point, maybe the problem is the candidate. Choose someone better. Someone who can actually expand the Conservative vote instead of endlessly feeding the same angry base. Better yet, keep Pierre. 😂 Run him again. Lose again. Then blame the media, the CBC, immigrants, “woke Canada,” Justin Trudeau,Elections Canada and everyone except the guy who couldn’t close the deal. Works for me. 🇨🇦

Steve, you say I’m spreading “brainrot” and pretending to be smart then underneath you, someone from the same side calls people “morons” and uses the R-word. And that’s exactly what I keep noticing about Poilievre’s online base. Disagree with them? You’re stupid. Question them?You’re an idiot. Vote differently? You’re a moron. Challenge their narrative? Out comes the R-word. Then they wonder why Pierre Poilievre struggles to expand beyond his angry, permanently online base. You don’t win a country by treating everyone outside your political tribe like they’re intellectually defective. So thank you both, @FBP24H and @sol_ip_sis_tik . genuinely. One accused me of “brainrot,” and the other immediately demonstrated my point. Perfect teamwork. 😂🇨🇦

And that right there is exactly the problem. You’re still using God as the final authority in a discussion about human morality, as if asserting what God will or won’t forgive settles the argument. As a survivor of childhood sexual abuse in the Catholic Church, I’ve seen where that thinking can lead. Scripture, forgiveness and God’s name can become shields while actual human beings carry the damage. I don’t need a promise of divine punishment someday. I need accountability here, among the living. Conscience. Empathy. Justice. Accountability. Those matter whether someone believes in God or not. They warned me not to take His name in vain. Yet they used His name to hide the pain. They preached His love, protected their own. Tell me again who took His name in vain.

As a survivor of childhood sexual abuse in the Roman Catholic Church, thank you for saying this, John. Anyone who claims childhood sexual abuse has little effect on later life should spend five minutes listening to those of us who have lived with the consequences for decades. The trauma doesn't simply end when the abuse ends. It follows people into adulthood in silence, in shame In addiction, in anger, in broken relationships and years spent trying to understand what happened to us. I know. I lived it. I am evidence of what the Roman Catholic Church refuses to beleive. And strangely, after decades of silence, speaking out now is revitalizing me. Every time someone with a voice like yours acknowledges the reality of what survivors carry, it reminds me that my voice matters too. So genuinely, thank you, @JohnCleese. You may never know what a few public words can mean to someone who spent most of his life carrying this in silence. I have carried their shame long enough No more silence.

Ruth Hunt once disgracefully lied to a room full of people and said 50% of children denied puberty blockers attempted suicide. That alone should frankly disqualify her from public life. She is a key architect of the gender ideology movement in the UK and an absolute disgrace.
