This is now the fifth position Prime Minister Carney has taken on Iran. Now we learn that Canada joined the statement only after it had already been issued by the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Japan. Late to the table and changing its stance as events unfold. It’s now clear that inconsistency is the theme, not nuance. Allies are acting while Canada, under Carney, is reacting, recalibrating, and arriving after the fact… again and maybe not even for long. theglobeandmail.com/world/article-…

Hello @danawhite, We Iranians remember when you tried to save Iranian wrestler Navid Afkari. You even reached out to President @realDonaldTrump to stop his execution. Back then, I launched a campaign to boycott the this murderous regime, Millions of Iranians were crying out for help to remove this regime. But no one truly listened. And now… it’s happening again. Today, another young wrestler, just 19, has been executed. Three protesters were hanged today and hundreds are on death row right now. I speak to families, parents terrified their children will be next. We are running out of time.We need your voice again. Please don’t stay silent. No human rights = no real sport.💔

Today, in Iran, in the middle of a war, the regime executed a 19-year-old national wrestling champion for the crime of joining January protests. 💔 After signaling to the world, including President @realDonaldTrump, that they would halt executions of protesters, the regime has done the exact opposite. Three young protesters, Saleh Mohammadi, Mehdi Ghasemi, and Saeed Davoudi, were hanged in Qom after a sham trial. Reports indicate torture. Forced confessions. No access to chosen lawyers. Closed-door proceedings. No right to appeal. I call on @GlobalAthleteHQ to stand with Iranian athletes who are being silenced, imprisoned, and executed simply for raising their voices. This is not just about sports. This is about human dignity.

The disconnect couldn’t be clearer. Canadians tumble down the global happiness rankings and watch their living standards erode, but not to worry, the Bank of Canada has it covered with a royal wave and a cheerful “let them eat cake.” Meanwhile, Mark Carney basks in political adoration, the media swoons on cue, and we’re told it’s not propaganda. Just another day in paradise.

SOUNDING THE ALARM Veteran RCMP Director WARNS Carney's police deal with Beijing is with the SAME Public Security Ministry operating ILLEGAL POLICE STATIONS in Canada. What could go wrong? Carney is SELLING OUT the security of Canadians to our BIGGEST NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT.

“If we're not at the table, we're on the menu." That was Mark Carney in Davos. Funny, we aren't at the table on trade negotiations with the Americans. Guess that means we are on the menu. Meanwhile, the Americans and Mexicans are still moving forward on trade talks.

What's the case for new pipelines? New report finds $31B economic lift — & 112,000 jobs – for Canada from new oil pipelines “I can’t think of anything else that would give such a large jolt to the CDN economy over a 10-yr period,” says ATB's Mark Parsons. calgaryherald.com/opinion/column…

The fact Carney gets so prickly & defensive when the topic of his personal investments comes up speaks volumes. A so-called “blind trust” is no answer. Carney knew what was in his portfolio before those assets went into the “blind trust” so what use is that? We need an inquiry.

"Ask not what your country can do for you…” Fair enough. Because apparently the working model now is: "Who cares what Canadians need."🤷‍♂️ As long as the right deals get done, in the right places, with the right asset managers getting paid, right?📷 #cdnpoli #CarneyConnedCanadians @WorkingCdns @NationalRoast

Canada's issues are broader than weak "business investment". In many cases, the investments that have been made and would be made are driven by government subsidies and partial grants, not by organic business improvements that would make sense on their own. That's not to say that they are all this way, but there is a strong influence especially in the SME space. The more the government seeks to stimulate investment, it often creates incentives for malinvestment. The best it could do is to reduce non-productive regulations, taxes and levies and return agency to businesses.
