Mark Carney managed to trade a pipeline that will never get built for meaningful progress on industrial carbon pricing and electricity interties — both of which will get more wind and solar built. Remember when people thought he wasn't good at politics? www.nationalobserver.com/2025/11/27/o...

The method to Mark Carney’s madness
The memorandum of understanding with Alberta might look like surrender. Look closer

Why can so many Canadians not understand we are in both an immediate economic and sovereignty crisis and a long term climate and economic crisis and it is entirely rational for a government to compromise and develop a long term strategic plan to deal with both at the same time? #canpoli

You know what's never gotten enough attention, imo? In the PM debate when PP dodged MC's question about security clearance? When everyone was asked about what they saw as Canada's biggest threat, Mark Carney basically gave a one word answer. "China."

At some point we're going to have to stop asking "when is (insert name) going to step up and say he's gone to far" and realize that maybe they are ok with the president's actions. We must realize that no one is going to swoop in and "save" us, it has to be us... we the people. Good morning

Mark Carney could have jerked Pierre Poilievre around and delayed his by-election -- just ask Naheed Nenshi what that looks like. Instead, he used the opportunity to make it clear what his government will be about: "no games." #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2025/05/06/o...

Mark Carney isn’t here to play
By letting his opponents expose the smallness of their politics, Carney’s will start to look bigger by comparison.

For those spreading the word that Polievre is going to lose his riding. Aggregate polling numbers on 338 Canada don't come near to supporting that claim. He holds an 8 point lead over Fanjoy with a +/- of 8%. That's a wide margin of error, but a very low likelihood of hitting the tails.

For those questioning why Carney wasn't at the Pope's funeral. The caretaker convention states that during an election period ministers must "avoid participating in high-profile government-related..., international visits..." He's following election rules. We are well represented by GG Mary Simon.

How has the Trump-Carney phone call devolved to a "scandal"? Trump raising the 51st state does not automatically negate a full conversation and agreement for two separate countries' leaders to talk again after an election. Diplomacy is not reality TV.

I’m not Roman Catholic. My father was Jewish, my mother of Lutheran/Mennonite descent. But Pope Francis was my favourite Pope - who showed real courage in living his faith and working to heal damage inflicted by his Church. I was privileged to witness his pilgrimage to Lac Ste. Anne. #PopeFrancis
Pope Francis, in his white papal robes and black shoes, sits in a wheel chair, as he is pushed down a fresh paved path towards the shore of Lac Ste Anne, west of Edmonton. He is surrounded by First Nations community leaders, some in full feather headdresses. To his left we see Métis leader Audrey Poitras, wearing moccasins, a orange scarf symbolizing child victims of residential school, and a blue purse with the white Métis infinity symbol.

Am I the only one seriously terrified for my country and my financial future right now? Has Canada forgotten about Danielle Smith's recommendation to have Trump put tariffs on hold until they could get Polievre elected because he is more "in sync" with the Trump administration? 1/5
