@BenMulroney While I didn’t agree with your fathers politics, I did think he had already a modicum of ethics. Too bad he didn’t pass that down to you. I get you have always been jealous of Justin, but flat out lying while pretending to be a journalist is disgusting.

We have allowed for the creation of a permission structure on the left to do and say some pretty abhorrent things that simply does not exist on the right. We need to tear it down in order to reestablish respectful dialogue. podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the…

@McAllisterBruce Sit down sparky. No one is buying the BS you and Marlaina are selling. What’s nauseating is the giant waste of tax payer money you and the every member of the UCP are. May karma deliver everything you deserve.

It’s becoming more clear by the day that this teacher’s strike is purely political for the NDP & ATA - and the media is conducting the orchestra. Why don’t they want our children back in classrooms? Why are the media and Gil McGowan types hyping this - using words like “War” and “showdown?” Has anybody seen a msm story on the impacts to kids of being out of class this long? This kind of coordinated activism is nauseating - I suspect a great number of teachers are sick of it as well. ATA/NDP - Stop using our kids as pawns!

@64BadHat @trevortombe The unemployment rate in Canada, excluding COVID, has been lower this decade than under Harper. He started with a UR of about 6.5% , jumped it to 8.4% before dropping to approx. 7%. Trudeau got it to 5.7% before COVID got down to 5.28% in 2022, but has settled at 6.7% last month.

@FoodProfessor @laurby @CalladineT Your inability to grasp what the word freelancer means doesn’t make him a CBC employee. Court records are public & he has never been sued like that. One would hope someone who refers to himself with the title of professor would deal more in facts than defamation but here we are.

The academic hard-left (including you Jim) has consistently attempted to silence dissenting voices and, more often than not, has managed to get away with it. However, that time is over. So, we should look at Trevor Tombe’s claims about the carbon tax over the years. As you know, Tombe is often associated with the "carbon tax intellectual mob," which includes Leach, Winter, and Fellows. While Tombe’s arguments are rooted in theory, many haven’t stood the test of time. Here's a quick breakdown of his most challenged claims: 1⃣ "Revenue can easily replace other taxes" (2016) In 2016, Tombe suggested carbon tax revenue could halve Saskatchewan’s income taxes. Reality check: revenue neutrality remains rare, as provinces often allocate funds elsewhere. 2⃣ "Carbon tax has no significant impact on food prices" (2019 and 2024) The compounded effects on transportation and production disproportionately impact rural and northern areas. This oversimplification has been widely criticized. 3⃣ "Carbon tax is the most effective emissions tool" (2020) While efficient in theory, its success depends heavily on complementary policies. Alone, it hasn’t spurred rapid decarbonization in many provinces. Notably, Canada’s emissions have increased in several years since 2019. 4⃣ "No harm to economic competitiveness" (2021) Farmers and manufacturers bear rising costs, such as grain drying, with rebates doing little to offset these expenses. Wholesale food prices in Canada have risen almost 40% more than in the U.S., partially due to the carbon tax, further impacting competitiveness. This remains a glaring blind spot in his analysis. Tombe’s theories might look solid on paper, but they often fail to account for regional disparities, sectoral realities, and political complexities. Theory ≠ Practice. Interestingly, while Tombe may come across as polite on X, he frequently amplifies posts from his close allies and goons like Leach and Fellows, who often double down on his claims. With this track record, it’s puzzling why he continues to write for @TheHubCanada and is paid by @CBCNews for regular commentary on the carbon tax.
Jim Stanford@JimboStanford

These comments defending the integrity of @trevortombe’s work are bang-on and important. But they are missing the bigger issue, which isn’t about Trevor or others like him who are being similarly witch-hunted. It’s about a dangerous trend by the hard-right to silence anyone… /2

@mark_slapinski Are the policies in the room with us? In 20+ years in government PP hasn’t fled after or passed a single price of legislation, so no one is buying him drafting policies on a Friday night.

@TonyHinchcliffe The pet that you missed, and still fail to grasp, is that jokes are supposed to be funny. Which explains why you are best known for judging comedians than being one, because you lack the sense of humour to tell a joke that’s actually funny.

These people have no sense of humor. Wild that a vice presidential candidate would take time out of his “busy schedule” to analyze a joke taken out of context to make it seem racist. I love Puerto Rico and vacation there. I made fun of everyone…watch the whole set. I’m a comedian Tim…might be time to change your tampon.
Headquarters@HQNewsNow

Gov. Walz and @AOC react to this clip: “When you have some a-hole calling Puerto Rico ‘floating garbage,’ know that that's what they think about you. It's what they think about anyone who makes less money than them… I want every Puerto Rican in Philadelphia and Reading and across the country to see this clip”

You have a principal at Seminole High school, Mr Dean, who thinks it's appropriate to make private contact w students who are not in his school. Who thinks it's appropriate to search students and not contact parents. To discipline students and not contact parents. You better get him under control. And I nor Mt son have been contacted so you haven't looked into the allegations.

The Harris-Walz ticket is the most radical ticket we have ever seen running for president. On the other hand, you have the most qualified and best case for President with @realDonaldTrump .

@RyanWaltersSupt @realDonaldTrump Interesting take for someone who used to be an educator. Is that how you are justifying your illegal order to teach the bible in public schools as a ruse to fund his campaign. What were you promised? And how were you stupid enough to believe Trump would follow through?

@RyanWaltersSupt @realDonaldTrump Just curious how much money you are receiving for this. What did you sell your soul for? As a former public educator you are a gross embarrassment. May karma deliver to you everything you deserve.

@putey_pute @IanSimpson15309 @jk_rowling They also attacked transgendered people. So it seems you and your trash author share more in common with them than a family that got rid of their own trash.
