Hey 🇨🇦! 👋
China covertly funded 11 MP candidates in the Federal election, funneled through an Ontario MPP & campaign staffer.
Shouldn’t it be public knowledge who these people are—especially the MPP who was/is sitting in office? 🧐

Don’t let the corporate Canadian media fool you into thinking inflation is not Trudeau’s fault. He forced the Bank of Canada to print all that money to fund his spending. More money chasing fewer goods = higher prices.
Before an audience filled with members of the corporate press, @MaxBlumenthal and @aaronjmate explain how mainstream US media is the most destructive source of disinformation on the planet, promoting war and protecting the oligarchy that controls it https://t.co/G7hzggVitG
We insist on a full embargo for Russian oil and gas. Buying them now means paying for the murder of Ukrainian men, women and children. I welcome the first decisive steps by a number of European states in this regard and urge others to proceed resolutely and without delay.
Oil and gas is one of the most important economic sectors in many Indigenous communities. The continued extraction of oil and gas is key to reconciliation.
Is this a comedy?
The Bank of Canada prints almost a half-trillion dollars for people to borrow & buy expensive houses and then warns against borrowing to buy expensive houses.
A year ago, I taught a course inspired by The Deficit Myth by @StephanieKelton and Doughnut Economics by @KateRaworth. Best course I ever taught, I thought. I have been teaching for 73 semesters and I think I know what I am talking about.
This year's version was even better.
