  1. So, I'm watching Power & Politics on CBC-Gem with Katie Simpson. Her "power panel" are all a bunch of right wingers who drool for free trade and no doubt get aroused when they fantasize about Mulroney, Reagan, and Thatcher.

    Simpson asked one of them, Marieke Walsh of the Globe and Mail, whether we need to have a conversation over whether CUSMA is worthwhile pursuing or not. Ms Walsh, of course, said we need it, no matter what.

    In pursuing it, so far we've changed our tax policy (DST), changed our budgetary priorities (and have started austerity of public services to do this), thrown refugees and immigrants overboard, gutted our pursuit of net zero, and have failed to stand up for international law in any meaningful sense.

    Now Carney and his right wing cronies are talking about giving up supply management and are asking the provinces to stock American booze. I can't wait to see what noodle-arm Carney gives up next. (*good lord! That freak has no elbows!*)

    Canada is a vast rich nation with loads of resources. It's utter nonsense that we need to turn ourselves into a de facto territory of the United States. I'm 61, and in my youth before free trade almost everything was made in Canada. People got by okay then.

  3. @jfmezei The only thing Pres. Trump respects is strength. These efforts by the feds to mollify him don't seem to be bringing Canada any gains at all, they just encourage more demands.

    If #MarkCarney has a clever plan, I hope we'll see it working soon.

  4. Two weeks before proposed 50% tariffs take effect, Canadian PM #MarkCarney turned #Trump’s rhetoric back on him, calling #trade talks with the #US “nasty.”

    “Yes, this is a tough negotiation,” #Carney said to reporters Thursday after laughing in response to a question about Trump’s repeated use of the word “nasty”. “We can change the adjective. You can say ‘nasty.’ But I mean, this is a question of Canadian jobs. It’s a question of the future of Canadian businesses.”

  5. Als kanadischer Premierminister lebt sich's schon sehr fein: Man lässt die lokalen Behörden Hitze- und Luftqualitätswarnungen herausgeben, macht sonst rein gar nichts gegen den Klimawandel und kassiert dazu das Geld der Fossilindustrie.

  10. @ChrisCorrigan @dyckron Sure, the PM is centre-right, and if you're a conservative that's good; but a leader who's more to the right would be even better.

    Wait and see, the Canadians on the left who voted for the Liberals and the Canadians who thought he'd be effective at dealing with Pres. Trump will eventually lose their faith in #MarkCarney, then we'll have competitive politics again.

  11. You got played, Canada. Some of us called it every step of the way. You can blame the greasiest of politicians but also blame so much of our national media that failed us in every possible way on this file. #AxeTheTax #CarbonTax #cdnpoli #abpoli #ClimateChange #MarkCarney

  12. "And I can’t help but think that, maybe, a technocrat who has spent his entire life in obeisance to elite power structures — a guy who has probably never had to tell so much as a Burger King manager to fuck off — is perhaps not temperamentally well suited to tell the new American Empire to pound sand."

  13. RE: mstdn.ca/@CanadianPolling/1170

    It's possible that #MarkCarney will achieve the best possible deal (and I hope he does), but his strategy of talking tough to Canadians and Europeans, then making concessions to the Americans hasn't borne much fruit to date.

    The 53% of Canadians must not be paying much attention to what's actually happening.
