Maxime Bernier photographed with members of alleged hate group in Calgary

CBC News

I can't even remember who Bernier was, once upon a time. I know he was part of Harper's government, but what did he do? Off-hand, without researching it. Memory is totally blank.

Regardless, it's not really identity politics. It's divisive politics, meant to divide voting groups against each other. To find some niche way into gaming at least a seat in parliament. Dunno if it'll work. I hope not. I hope there's not single voting group that's somehow attracted to his message of not being either Trudeau or Scheer.

Private Equity is a TERRIBLE Investment... Who Keeps Giving Them Money? — How Money Works

Not too much to comment. Business in the USA and by extension Canada is bad right now. Probably for a generation. We really do need a generational plan to get us out of this mess.

BC Election Preliminary Results Thoughts and Feelings and Some Preliminary Analysis

The BC NDP will possibly hold onto power in the province of BC. With a Confidence and Supply Agreement with the Greens, they should aim for four years of stable government.

For current rent prices, this plays twofold against the NDP. Rent prices as they are now depress voter turnout for the NDP. People see the NDP as ineffe...

Carney speaks after capitulating to Trump's demands

Dunno how else it can be explained other than capitulation. Carney, you weren't elected to kowtow to Trump. You were elected to stand up to him. Canadians may even start to get buyers remorse for ditching Trudeau for you when he showed far more backbone than this. At least he cared more about Canadian sovereignty than this act. What exactly have you extracted for this? What benefit did this provide for Canadians compared to the billions in revenue Canada stood to gain from the Digital Services Tax as well as protecting Canada's ability to create its own taxes?
