"Should we be surprised that a banker is acting like a banker and inviting other bankers to come to Canada? Probably not. But I think the extent to which he is foregrounding fossil fuel infrastructure is a bit surprising, even to me."
I think it's primarily a subsidy to the fossil fuel industry who don't have to build their own pipelines. Why would they invest in this expensive infrastructure? What they want to do is export oil in the pipeline. So what we have is the privatized profits. And it's not just the pipeline. A lot of the risk offloaded onto the public.

For every taxpayer dollar Mark Carney uses to promote the use of household heat pumps, which are a good move for the climate, he is directing twenty taxpayer dollars towards a new pipeline which is unspeakably catastrophic for the climate, & that's only a fraction of his climate hostile spending.

Selling off Canada’s public infrastructure won't lower costs or build a fairer future for working families—it just guarantees higher corporate profits. You don’t build a stronger country by selling it off. My latest op-ed in @TheHillTimes www.hilltimes.com/2026/10/07/y... #cdnpoli #VancouverEast

The choice is not between doing nothing and privatizing everything. It is between building an economy that serves people, and building one that serves investors.

As Mark Carney & Danielle Smith ram through yet another new pipeline, remember that our leaders (at all levels) have failed to clean up over 300,000 wells and 450,000 kilometres of pipeline across Alberta after a century of development. No cleanup = no new pipelines!!! #ABLeg #ABPoli #CDNPoli

Opposition to genocide is not hatred of a people, it is a principled stance against war crimes and a defence of human rights. The Carney government is escalating its support for Netanyahu's war crimes by criminalizing its own citizens' ethics. www.ijvcanada.org/tell-canada-...
Four images in sequence. First is an image of a child in a convenience store stealing a candy bar, with overlaying text that reads "If I see a child shoplift, & tell them it's wrong & not to do that, it doesnt mean that I hate children."

Second is an image of a bomb exploding in Gaza, with overlaying text which reads "When I see Israel committing genocide, & say it'sw wrong & not to do that, it doesn't mean that I hate Jewish people. What I hate is war crimes."

Third is an image of Canadian prime minister Mark Carney, with overlaying text that reads "But Mark Carney now defines any opposition to the war crimes of the Israeli government as antisemitism"

Fourth is an image of Avi Lewis, leader of Canada's federal NDP (New Democratic Party), with overlaying text that reads "even when criticism of Zionism's genocide comes from people who are themselves Jewish."

Privatization wasn’t on the ballot when Canadians voted for Mark Carney. Really foul the way he’s using the blind trust so many continue to have in him to make massive, fundamental changes to Canada (hurting normal Canadians) so big companies can profit. Please pay attention.

I am a scientist – and the answer is climate change. Yes, there is nuance. Yes, it could take a long time to identify the precise mechanisms. But there is no question why ice and snow-related disasters are on the rise. Our planet is warming at an unprecedented rate, and humans are responsible.

For decades, the IRS has been required to audit every sitting president annually; a critical safeguard to ensure no president has a secret financial stake in betting against the American people they swore to serve. Every president accepted those audits without question. - Until now.
