Carney, a year in review "Now, after a year of this Prime Minister being in office, on the promise that he would, quote, negotiate a win with the United States is a good time to take an inventory where we are." "He promised that he would give us the fastest growing economy in the G7. We now have the only shrinking economy in the G7." "He promised affordable food. We have the most food inflation in the G7. "He promised that we would have a solid economy. We now have the worst housing costs and the highest household debt in the G7 and the second highest unemployment in that group." "He said that he would negotiate a win with the President. Here we are today, a year later, no win, no deal." "Tariffs on aluminum and steel have doubled and on Canadian lumber they have tripled." "He promised that he would build projects with record speed. And yet his major projects office, which this house rushed into existence in five days back in June because the Prime Minister said it was an emergency, has still not approved a single project of any kind." "Almost a year later, not a single pipeline has been approved" "And of course when it comes to building homes, he promised he would double home building his own housing agency projects that will drop by 15%." ... and no tax reform, and interprovincial trade barriers remain But boomers and paid media remain smitten with Carney's eloquent deflections from domestic headaches @PierrePoilievre

@JustinRayGolf @grok based on the 2026 pga tour season, who is the top 10 golfers who have a majority of their strokes gained from ball striking?

Since The Players moved back to March, winners at TPC Sawgrass have got 62.4% of their strokes gained total from ball striking (shots off the tee + approach). The PGA Tour average for winners in that same time span is 53.4%.

🚨 Howard Lutnick's family firm bought up the rights to tariff refunds for 20-30 cents on the dollar after Liberation Day last year. Today, the Supreme Court struck the tariffs down. For every $100 invested, Lutnick's sons just made 3-5x. Welcome to Crony Corrupt America.

'In a little-noticed provision included in the government’s latest omnibus bill, Carney government ministers would be able to override almost any non-criminal law they wanted, and provide special treatment to any person or corporation who requested it' nationalpost.com/opinion/little…

INCREDIBLE. The Minister wants the power of a king, not because it is needed, but because it would be "helpful". #cndpoli

"Prime Minister, less than a year ago, you said that China was the biggest security threat to Canada. Do you still believe that?" Carney "And I would say that, well, the threat environment has increased, the risks have multiplied." "So, too, has our resilience and our engagement, which is protecting Canadians, on balance." Q "But is that threat from China still exist?" "I'll refer to my previous answer." 🤦‍♂️ @MarkJCarney

Carney during the election: “The biggest security threat to Canada is China.” Carney today: “Just landed in Beijing… we’re ready to build a new partnership – one that bridges the best of our past, and responds to the challenges of today.”

PM Mark Carney is being criticized today after saying Canada is “ready to build a new partnership” with China, while also stating that “the biggest security threat to Canada is China,” during his run for Prime Minister

The first Olympic test event at Santagiuliana Arena is being delayed because there's a giant hole in the ice. They brought out a watering can to try and patch it.

Thoughts on Team Canada at World Juniors: There's been a lot of discourse today about Canada's performance after bowing out to Czechia again. I've read a lot about roster construction, team toughness, how players were used during the tournament, and other things related to the team's inability to get the job done. These things may have been an issue, but reality is the problem runs way deeper. Here is the biggest thing that people aren't talking about: Canada has WAY fewer youth boys playing hockey than it did a decade ago. Looking at Hockey Canada registration and membership data, it's mind-boggling to see the numbers. And the numbers in the biggest provinces (Ontario and Quebec) are especially egregious. So why is this happening? Hockey is Canada's sport. It shouldn't be like this. It's what we hear every day from families all over North America: Costs are too high. It's professionalized at too young of an age. The stress of the youth hockey experience is too much for kids and families. Community programs have been replaced by for-profit entities leading to higher costs and more pressure. Development has been replaced by super teams and rogue/outlaw leagues outside of Hockey Canada even before kids are 8 years old. At the older ages, hockey academies have become what families believe is the only way their kids will make it - shelling out INSANE amounts of money to send their kids to do so. Ontario just got rid of residency rules which will only lead to less accountability and more club-hopping than there already was in the nation's craziest and biggest youth hockey market. The reason why Canada was the hockey superpower for so long is because it was part of the fabric of the country. There was such a pride and passion for the game and what the game meant to the flag. There was such a sense of playing the game for something bigger than yourself. Now rather than playing for the love of the game, hockey in Canada is like a job for many of these kids in the environment they're being put in. It's less about pride and passion and more about the path to making it. When in all honesty, it's the pride and passion for the game that is the biggest consistency in the kids that do end up making it. If Canada wants to restore its hockey dominance, it better take a long look in the mirror at the grassroots and what is going on in youth hockey. If you have tens of thousands of fewer boys playing the game, you should probably look at that first. The bigger your pool of athletes, the more elite athletes you can develop. "As many as possible, for as long as possible, in the best environment possible". That has to be the guiding principle. There's a lot of great people in Canada doing incredible things for the game, but the system itself is fundamentally broken. If Hockey Canada is serious about getting back to the top, it has to start at the bottom.
