Wherein the man-who-wishes-to-be-PM: - Confuses GDP with wealth; - Confuses one year with five; - Confuses a statement of fact with a contract term; and - Shows that he doesn't know what an investment is. This is either absurdly cynical or terrifyingly economically illiterate.
Mark Carney says his new agreement will push $1 trillion of investment out of Canada to the U.S. That is equal to 1/3 of Canada’s entire GDP. Where is he going to get the trillion dollars?

“Mark Carney is one of the most respected voices on the economy worldwide and by far the most qualified to steer Canada through the second Trump presidency. Canada already has the best trade deal with the United States, and Canadians trust the prime minister to build on that

While #Canada’s violent crime rate is dropping (zero would be ideal), Pierre Poilievre tells Canadians that killers lurk around every corner. He thrives on fear because dividing Canadians is his preferred political strategy. @PierrePoilievre

An ill considered line of attack by the Conservative leader.. because it misleads Canadians and is an unfortunate intervention in a delicate situation, for the sake of a weak political jab.
"Where in his platform did he promise to give a trillion of our investment dollars to the Americans?" Poilievre asked in question period. I mean, I wouldn’t even expect this level of economic illiteracy from the NDP.

Fact of the matter is - if this was a Provincial Liberal government or Justin Trudeau. The media and Conservative would be up in arms and give this story triple oxygen Since this is Doug Ford (whom men running the media support) - they protect Ford at all costs c @Red_Toryism

NEW: David Piccini, the minister whose office picks Skills Development Fund recipients, was in Paris this weekend at the wedding of a lobbyist whose clients received millions from that fund. From me and @CharliePinkerto. https://t.co/kCDDhmX0dh

Two clients of lobbyist Michael Rudderham have received more than $8.5 million in Skills Development Fund grants, records show

Confirmation he won’t be running in his former Ottawa riding again. The two guilty parties put Ottawa residents, businesses, and those working at those businesses through hell. And again, they were found guilty so square that with the “jail not bail” slogans.

Dominic LeBlanc says after a detailed conversation between PM Carney and President Trump, officials have been directed to reach a deal quickly to bring more certainty to sectors hit hard by tariffs, steel, aluminum, and the energy sector.

U.S. tariffs have upended global trade. Because of how integrated our economies have been, nowhere is more affected than Canada. This is a challenging moment. Industry is hit hard. We've done better than others, but there's more work to do to reduce tariffs & support Canadians.

Ask yourself: does this letter strengthen or weaken the PM's position in conversations with Washington? By extension, does this letter strengthen or weaken Canada? We currently have the lowest effective tariff rate in the world. But many industries are hurting, and for them
Dear Prime Minister, You promised to “negotiate a win” with the U.S. Tomorrow is the big day you get U.S. tariffs off all Canadian goods. Like you promised. Don’t let us down.

Why haven't we heard more about South Carolina Judge Diane Goodstein's house being set on fire, after ruling against Trump. Arson is suspected. Her husband and family is hospitalized. MEDIA: Do your f**king job.

This little prick has me blocked so I will leave it up to you to voice your views on bringing Maga bullshit into our Universities. Tell @jamiljivani to keep his christo-fascist nonsense OUT of our schools and our country. Conservatives are out to destroy Canada. Don't let them

A rare Carney interview -with fellow economist ZMB (formidable). Let’s hope the full version goes well beyond econ which he clearly enjoys too much (just look at his face when he says “comparative advantage” -twice!)
On Tuesday @MarkJCarney, Canada’s prime minister, will meet Donald Trump at the White House. In an interview in Ottawa last week, I asked him what America’s president was like to deal with. Watch the full interview on Thursday at 7pm London time: https://t.co/eCAirNXlnu

Stephen Harper once tried hiring Mark Carney as finance minister. He didn’t try hiring Poilievre for that most important role. Pierre needs to sit this one out again.

@gator_gum Pierre Poilievre's blatant exploitation of a grieving mother's unimaginable pain for political gain is a disgrace. This isn't leadership; it's a cold, calculated move by someone who clearly lacks the empathy and humanity required to lead a nation. #NeverPoilievre
