Today's speech by Pierre Poilievre cohered his key policy announcements—including the de-regulation of major projects and a capital gains tax deferral—in an economic narrative that rightly diagnosed the problem of government disincentives and overreach and the solution of lower

C-69 is *unconstitutional.* This is not optional, Mr. Carney. I challenged the constitutionality of C-69 (which I labelled the ‘No More Pipelines Law’) as a violation of provincial jurisdiction. The Alberta Court of Appealed agreed on a 4 to 1 judgement, ruling that C-69 was a
Canada PM Carney: No intention to repeal C-69, but we will remove duplication in terms of environmental assessements and other approvals for energy projects.

The fact NDP voters are deserting their party in droves for a well-heeled banker, a multimillionaire skilled in the art of tax avoidance, an aristocratic self-described European, is nothing short of hilarious, a phenomenon that will be studied by political scientists for decades.

CANADA: "We have a shitload of natural gas we should sell it." LIBERALS: "This European company said they'd build us a battery factory and all we have to do is pay for the entire thing." CANADA: "Okay, but the gas .. " LIBERALS: "We'll build our OWN auto sector!"

This was you less than a year ago.
By canceling the capital gains tax hike, we’re supporting builders, small businesses, and entrepreneurs—those who take risks to create jobs and drive our economy forward. It’s time to build. https://t.co/D4KxezgRKP

This👇is completely untrue. The Harper government signed free trade agreements with 39 countries, partly through the Canada-Europe Trade Agreement, and the Trans Pacific Partnership, covering almost all European & Asian economies. Canada did so *without* a carbon tax. Carbon
PM Carney claims that having an industrial carbon tax is necessary for Canada to expand trade into European Union, the United Kingdom and emerging Asian markets.

According to the President of the American Aluminum Association - for the US to setup a new Aluminum smelting factory - it would take 8-10 years, *if* they could find a power grid strong enough and willing to commit to 20+ years of service. Every one 🇨🇦 Aluminum job = 13 American

Over on Facebook, Ben Shapiro is asking the question we all want more prominent American conservatives asking openly. Why Canada? We have allies in the American conservative movement. We need them to speak up. Thank you @benshapiro

Mark Carney’s fiscal proposals amount to a semi-sophisticated sounding attempt to wiggle out of an invariable political economy problem. Yet they’re just another version of Justin Trudeau’s empty promise of three years of modest deficits. The significance of a balanced budget

A couple reflections on the quantum computing breakthrough we just announced... Most of us grew up learning there are three main types of matter that matter: solid, liquid, and gas. Today, that changed. After a nearly 20 year pursuit, we’ve created an entirely new state of

Just in case we all forgot. The person leading our country cannot get his calls returned by the US President. He does not have the confidence of his own caucus or parliament. How is he the best person to lead us through this crisis? We are a banana republic because of the vanity

Rona Ambrose goes on a 3 minute schooling of Trudeau, the Liberals and the disaster they’ve created. And she’s 1000% spot on. I miss sane voices in Government.

Spoke to the head of Amazon Canada. I expressed our dismay and frustration after learning in the news that they intend to let go of 1,700 employees and close all seven of their warehouses in Québec. This is not the way business is done in Canada.

Mark Carney soft launching his campaign on The Daily Show is wild. It's the media equivalent of elite Canadians going to private hospitals in the US when they're sick. When push comes to shove, Canadian elites shun the subsidized state-run junk they tell the rest of us to use.

Today, we honour Sir John A. Macdonald, Canada’s first Prime Minister, on his birthday. A nation-builder, he brought Canada together through Confederation and the Canadian Pacific Railway, laying the foundation for a strong and prosperous country. Without his vision, Canada

You know who argued best for a Canada independent from the United States? John A Macdonald. Maybe this government should have spoken up when his statues were being torn down. Maybe our history and heritage of freedom is something we should hold proudly.
