How about this for building a “Team Canada 🇨🇦” approach?
1. Stop threatening the livelihoods of tens of thousands of Albertans & Canadians via an energy export tax or ban.
2. Immediately start construction on the Northern Gateway & Energy East pipelines to diversify our customer base to Europe, Asia and our own country
3. Tell Germany, Japan and the rest of the world that there is, in fact, a “business case” for Canadian oil and gas to be sold to them
4. Repeal the unconstitutional and job killing production cap, electricity regs and C-69
5. Treat with respect, and as an equal partner, the Alberta taxpayers that have been transferring hundreds of billions to Quebec, the Maritimes and even Ontario, for decades.
Let’s start there on building our “Team Canada” approach shall we?
When the general is losing his most loyal soldiers on the eve of a (tariff) war, the country desperately needs a new general.
@JustinTrudeau—#itstime, long past time to go.
I am sorry you were harassed today.
Of course, it shouldn’t be that way.
There’s better language, and a time and place to debate policies and what’s best for our country.
Mr. Singh, what country are you exactly suggesting my husband wants?
People out there are hurting. And yes, they are angry. But my husband has not been the man in charge for the last eight years. That’s your friend, Justin Trudeau. People didn’t wake up angry one day without reason. The policies implemented by the government that YOU support have caused much harm.
Why are criminals released so easily? Why are so many court cases tossed? You want safe streets? Then why are you continuously supporting the harmful Liberal policies that caused this mess?
You want to talk about the country Pierre Poilievre, my husband, wants? Then listen carefully to his policies and actually watch the man he is. I’m tired of you and your friends portraying my husband as someone he is NOT.
He married a Latino woman and fully embraces my culture. He married a strong woman and is proud of it. He supports, celebrates, and promotes strong women around him. He is a loving father of two and incredibly protective of our young, vulnerable daughter. He loves to read books to bebé Cruz. Just tonight, he was reading *Le Petit Prince* to him.
The country my husband wants is a country where hard work pays off, so that blue-collar workers like cabinet makers like my brother don’t have to choose between rent or food. Where housing is affordable, so that immigrants can adapt to their new home and actually afford one, like my parents were able to do many years ago. A country that is proud and where our military men and women are supported, because it is only fair that we support the people willing to give their lives for our country and freedom, like my other younger brother.
Mr. Singh, the only person you have to blame for the current state of our country and people’s mood and desperation is the man currently in charge, and those who keep him in charge.
Hi there @s_guilbeault
Has it occurred to you that Alberta will simply not put up with what you are doing?
That the inhabitants of that province will dissolve the country first?
And maybe it's because you couldn't be more wrong?
You and your idiot compatriots will plunge everyone in the world into a counterproductive poverty just to virtue signal.
Anytime you want to discuss this publicly I'm available.
As Guilbeault and Trudeau commit to move away from fossil fuels, let’s have a look at the new equalization payments to provinces for 2024-25 to see how energy producing provinces help support the rest of Canada.

Welcome, Canada, to a stark revelation of the state of our nation under Justin Trudeau's government. The recent 30-hour marathon session in the House of Commons, a Conservative-led protest against the carbon tax, has been downplayed by the Liberals as mere formalities. However, this couldn't be further from the truth.
This session was far from a mere formality. It was a vital demonstration of resistance against a government that's running rampant with its spending and elitist policies. The Conservatives, under Pierre Poilievre, knew they were unlikely to stop any of these bills with the Bloc and NDP in lockstep with the Liberals. But that wasn't the point. The point was to make the Liberals work for their decisions, to make them physically present in the House to face the consequences of their actions.
Let's cut through the spin and face the stark reality of Justin Trudeau's Canada. We're witnessing a food inflation rate that's estimated to be a staggering 32.7% from 2021 to 2024. Think about that – nearly one-third of your buying power has evaporated under this government. Every trip to the grocery store is now a financial struggle for the average Canadian. Your dollar just doesn't stretch as far as it used to, and families across the nation are feeling the pinch.
The root of this economic hardship? Look no further than the Liberal government's inflationary budgets and policies. Take the carbon tax, for instance. It's not just an environmental measure; it's a direct contributor to the rising cost of living that's making life increasingly unaffordable for millions of Canadians.
Now, Chrystia Freeland might boast about lifting people out of poverty, but let's juxtapose that claim with the harrowing reality of food bank usage in Canada. In March 2023, there were almost 2 million visits to food banks across the country. That’s a 32% increase compared to March 2022, and a shocking 78.5% increase compared to March 2019. We’re talking about the highest year-over-year increase ever reported. These numbers don't just tell a story of poverty; they scream of a crisis.
This is the true face of the Trudeau government's economic policies. While they parade their supposed successes, Canadians are quietly suffering, forced to rely on food banks to feed their families. It's a national disgrace, a clear sign that the policies of this government are failing the very people they claim to protect and uplift.
Now, contrast this with the criticism being levied at Pierre Poilievre for not being physically present for the full 30 hours of his filibuster. The point here is being entirely missed. The filibuster wasn't about Pierre Poilievre putting on a 30 hour show; it was a symbolic protest against the very policies that are driving Canadians into poverty. The carbon tax, a cornerstone of the Liberal agenda, is a prime example of a policy that's causing more harm than good. It's forcing Canadians to make impossible choices between heating their homes and feeding their families.
The onus of responsibility for these inflationary policies lies not with Pierre Poilievre or the Conservatives, but squarely on the shoulders of Justin Trudeau and his government. They are the ones passing these bills, they are the ones driving these inflationary policies, and they are the ones who should be held accountable. The physical presence of Pierre Poilievre in the House of Commons for the entire duration of the filibuster is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. The real issue is the impact of the government's policies on the day-to-day lives of Canadians.
Now that the 30-hour session in the House of Commons has wrapped up, the Liberals are stepping up to the podium, trying to sell you the narrative that they've done a great job. It's like watching that colleague who's a notorious screw-up but insists on telling everyone how fantastic they are. They're boasting about their achievements, from putting tampons in men's washrooms to sending half a billion dollars to Ukraine, right after inviting a controversial figure to the House on the eve of the Ukrainian leader's visit. And let's not forget the ArriveCAN app debacle, a $53 million project with $11 million going to GC Strategies for what seems like glorified LinkedIn recruitment work. But of course, they're not bragging about that.
The Liberal Party lead by Justin Trudeau, Chrystia Freeland and Karina Gould are standing there, telling us to be grateful for Canada's triple-A credit rating, while Canadians grapple with a housing crisis, runaway inflation, and sky-high interest rates. As a Canadian, I find it hard to be grateful when I can barely afford to heat my home, thanks to Justin Trudeau's punishing taxes. And while Canadians struggle, the government is busy handing over $5.3 billion to the UN for a dubious climate defense initiative.
Living in British Columbia my entire life, I've seen firsthand the ineffectiveness of the carbon tax. It hasn't prevented a single forest fire. This tax is nothing more than a shiny, deceptive facade, pretending to fight for the environment while it picks the pockets of hardworking Canadians.
Let's face the harsh truth about Justin Trudeau's leadership. Under his watch, we've seen a government more interested in its image than the well-being of its people. And now, Trudeau is pushing for a move that could spell disaster for every Canadian household: tripling the carbon tax. This isn't just a policy misstep; it's a direct attack on the financial stability of every Canadian.
Trudeau's penchant for photo ops and international applause has blinded him to the struggles of the average Canadian. He's living in a bubble of elitism, detached from the harsh realities of living under his government's policies. The carbon tax, already a burden for many, is set to become an unbearable weight, squeezing the pockets of hardworking Canadians even further.
This isn't leadership; it's recklessness disguised as environmental concern. While Trudeau parades on the global stage, Canadians are left to grapple with the increasing costs of basic necessities. Heating your home, putting food on the table, and even driving to work are becoming luxuries under his regime.
The Conservative filibuster, led by Pierre Poilievre, was a necessary stand against these harmful policies. It wasn't about physical presence; it was about sending a clear message: Canadians won't stand for this. We're tired of a government that spends without thought, taxes without mercy, and governs without understanding the real impact of its decisions.
It's time for a change. We need a leader who respects the struggles of ordinary Canadians, not one who adds to them. We need policies that support growth and prosperity, not ones that drive us into poverty. Trudeau's plan to triple the carbon tax is a slap in the face to every Canadian who's working hard to make ends meet.
As Canadians, we must unite and send a clear message to our government. We will no longer tolerate policies that harm more than they help. We demand a government that serves its people, not one that burdens them with unfair taxes and inflationary budgets. The future of Canada should be one of hope and opportunity, not one of financial struggle under the weight of misguided leadership. It's time for Trudeau to listen to the people, not just his inner circle of advisors and international admirers. Enough is enough.
