To quote Cons themselves, Jivani needs to “get out of the way” and let the elected government handle trade talks. His comments to Brietbart are all the evidence we need to see he (like most Cons) is in it for himself. #CDNpoli

Frustrated after posting this article. Biden objected to the DST in 2022—this convo would happen under Harris too. Implementing it now would stall talks with any admin. Carney didn’t hand Trump a win—we’re watching the move, not the game. Let’s focus on policy, not caricatures. #CDNpoli #DST
