As Canada becomes increasingly known for exporting wildfire smoke, is now the time to build oil pipelines? I speak to Jaime Poisson at CBC’s Front Burner about what Carney is prioritizing for investment with little to no public debate.

This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

Canadians will officially never recoup the costs of ***TMX*** and the government is going to drive the orcas to extinction for ANOTHER oil pipeline. Isn’t Carney supposed to be a great economic brain or something?? Why are we killing the whales for nothing?!

@mark-carney.bsky.social should not be making deals with big American companies. We should avoid them. Look to Canadian companies & investors first, then EU or other non-American investors. It is our over reliance on American corps that has caused our troubles in the first place. We need to learn!

The US media is describing the Draganfly drone deal as a "TAMPA-BASED" company getting US investors (Don Jr. & a secret company) to expand US capabilities while feeding on a contract with the Canadian military. Why are we using taxpayers money to support US interests? tbbwmag.com/2026/09/28/t...

The whole merit conversation has to be thrown in the garbage. People get to where they are because they conform, not due to merit. There are many people who have the merit to hold positions or spaces of affluence. The determining factor is “fit” which is actually compliance

We had the opportunity to limit catastrophic damage to a 1.5 degree increase but that meant calling on the oil giants to do their part. Canada is now predicting a 3.5 to 5 degrees increase. That will spell the end of civilization. And we are still going all in on a $100 billion pipeline?
