Now in Season 5!!! Incisive (centrist/progressive) commentary on 🇨🇦 Canadian politics and culture with a focus on media and political literacy. Facts First.
Mark Gerretsen nails it. “The Prime Minister gets classified intelligence, Cabinet gets classified intelligence, & the leader of the opposition [Poilievre] is supposed to as well. So that in moments of crisis, every major political leader is working from the same set of facts.”
@TheJasonPugh @PierrePoilievre @joerogan This whole resetting/rebirthing of the Poilievre thing by media every time he talks as though he isn’t the worst asshole in the world for a minute is getting so tiresome. And insulting - are we that dumb that we forgot 22 years of his bullshit?
When you need Japan's help probably not the greatest time to be making Pearl Harbor jokes
The intellectual dishonesty from Doug Ford and Chief Demkiw is staggering. To suggest that we should reject the findings made by an impartial judge during a public trial that were based on the expert evidence called by both Crown and DEF for this OPP’s report is absurd.
Spain's renewables build-out has structurally decoupled its electricity prices from gas markets. Gas now sets the price in only 15% of hours, compared to 90% in Italy. Countries that invested early in clean power are far less exposed to fossil fuel price shocks.
Doug Ford’s key claims about Ontario’s FOI system are inaccurate: Information and Privacy Commissioner Ontario already prohibits the disclosure of personal and cabinet records — and the proposed changes would be more restrictive than the federal regime. thetrillium.ca/news/politics/…
Rogan mentions cannabis being legal in Canada. Poilievre replies, “been legal for 10 years, yeah.” Rogan applauds Canada for voting to legalize marijuana. He says it's about "personal freedom." Poilievre agrees it’s about personal choice. (Poilievre voted against cannabis legalization lol)
