Hundreds of hardworking folks on the Sunshine Coast just lost their livelihoods to NDP land-use gridlock and permitting delays. What just happened at Howe Sound Pulp and Paper was avoidable.

15,000 jobs already wiped out in just four years under the NDP. Forestry families are left to pick up the pieces.

The BC Conservatives stand with the workers this government has abandoned.

MUST WATCH

CBC cuts away from Poilievre moments after he calls on PM Carney to put "all of our leverage on the table" and deliver the trade deal he promised Canadians.

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

This should never be a headline in our country.

Criminals broke into his house.

Shot his son.

He disarmed them.

Then shot at intruders.

Got 2 YEARS OF HOUSE ARREST!

THE CROWN APPEALED & WANTED A LONGER SENTENCE.

Canada is run by insane activists.

[Dallas Brodie @Dallas_Brodie]

It's been a year since I filed the private prosecution against Charlotte Kates, the director of the terrorist organization Samidoun.

To this day, neither the federal Liberal AG Sean Fraser nor the provincial BC NDP AG Niki Sharma have done anything to protect Canadians from terrorism.

[Gary Lamphier @lamphieryeg]

Some. Not all. To be fair, I know some FN entrepreneurs and chiefs who are very pro-development. Osoyoos chief Clarence Louie for one. But they're largely ignored by the Liberal funded Cdn media and eco activists. They prefer to portray FNs as victims.

[Brian Lilley @brianlilley]

If I said this about a CBC reporter then David Cochrane would be in my DMs attacking me for questioning the reporter.
How do I know that?
Because Cochrane has done that to me when I knew who was "leaking" to a CBC reporter.
Cochrane is a partisan, he just doesn't think he is one.

[Brian Matthews @resaleTOhomes]

At the end of the day remember this, at the end of it Mark Carney will get to jet off into the sunset with his stock options, while the rest of us have no options.

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

Teletubby Ford went silent.

Trudeau trying to contain the Carney fallout.

Freeland saying it’s a bad outcome.

Liberal media playing defence.

Counter tariffs dropped.

Online News Act likely repealed.

Liberals won’t announce a single thing.

WHAT. HAS. CARNEY. DONE?!

[Melanie In Saskatchewan @saskatchewan_in]

Kory Teneycke, enough.

There is a name for this pathetic behaviour of yours lately...

attention-seeking public humiliation politics.

And from a grown man who has spent years telling everyone else how professional politics works, it's painfully embarrassing to watch feom a so-called grown man.

You want to criticize Pierre Poilievre? Use your big-boy vocabulary and make an argument.

Calling him a “pussy” or an "asshole" in public while sitting around with Liberal strategists isn't analysis. It isn't courage, and it certainly isn't the sophisticated political insight you seem to think we're witnessing.

It's a pompous middle-aged man in leather pants with copious media attention performing for the cameras because apparently being watched has become confused with being important or relevant.

It's juvenile.

Worse, you know exactly what you're doing. You know how clips work. You know how headlines work. You know perfectly well that every cheap insult becomes ammunition against the party you supposedly want to improve.

So stop preening like you're bravely speaking truth to power.

Nobody elected you. Nobody appointed you guardian of conservatism. And having Scott Reid and David Herle nearby doesn't magically transform schoolyard behaviour into statesmanship.

If a young Conservative staffer behaved this way publicly, people like you would have them hauled into an office and told to smarten the hell up.

Consider yourself hauled in.

And Kory, perhaps ease up on mocking Pierre Poilievre for going to the gym while parading around in a reported $10,000 Gucci leather jacket, leather pants, soft paunchy belly and no discernable leg muscle.

Leather. Pants.
On a political strategist.

If Kory wants to spend ten grand dressing like black Twizzler licorice, that's between him, Gucci and whatever happened in the fitting-room mirror.

But that's not quite the position from which I'd be handing out unsolicited assessments of another man's masculinity. You showed up looking like Temu’s idea of an aging rock star’s second divorce, dressed for a Whitesnake reunion where even Whitesnake would have security remove you for excessive leather, and decided to talk smack about Pierre. How very pedantic and puerile.

You're old enough to know better, experienced enough to know exactly what you're doing, and apparently far too impressed with yourself to notice the spectacle. You should be embarrassed of yourself.

For a man who fancies himself a sophisticated political strategist, you're behaving like a caveman who learned to grunt louder in the mistaken belief volume equals validity.

The self-awareness shortage among performative acting pundits may actually be Canada's most pressing supply-chain problem.

[The Buck You Will @TheBuckYouWill]

🔥🔥🔥THIS NEEDS TO CHANGE.🔥🔥🔥

In Canada, 10 provinces & 3 territories can hold bartenders accountable if the customers they over serve kill someone...

...but 0 regions hold Judges accountable if the criminals they release kill someone.

MAKE. THEM. ACCOUNTABLE.

(Canadians have had enough.)

Explain this to me like I am five.

There is a crisis.

People are told they must give up fundamental civil liberties, close their businesses, sacrifice their livelihoods, and comply with extraordinary government measures “for the public good.”

And most people do.

But some of those people are harmed by what was asked of them. Some suffer physical injuries. Some suffer financially.

If society demanded the sacrifice “for the public good,” then society does not get to abandon the people who were harmed making it.

Where is the compassion?
Where is the kindness?
Where is the collective responsibility?

If the benefit belonged to all of us, the burden also belongs to all of us.

And to every elected official and person in a position of influence who continues to ignore those who were harmed, dismiss or disparage their experiences, or tell them it is time to “move on”: you have lost all credibility. Your conduct shows a complete lack of integrity, character, and moral courage.

You demanded sacrifice when it was politically convenient, and now you dismiss, disparage, or ignore the people who paid the price. That is a reflection of your character, not theirs.

That is not leadership. It is cowardice.

[Canada has gone mad 🍎 @HaveWeAllGoneM1]

One point...
Why DID it take a year to get back to roughly where we were a year ago?

It’s cost us billions...job losses, businesses relocating, plants closing, and taxpayers subsidising industry losses.
Add the global humiliation from the temper tantrums, the sports-game booing, pouring out American booze, and the “Elbows Up” campaign that will go down as one of Canada’s most embarrassing political slogans.

And for what?
Carney globe-trotting and delivering self-serving speeches while pouring money into a Net-Zero agenda that benefits Brookfield.

Yeah… we should be pissed 🇨🇦

[Jasmin Laine @JasminLaine]

Canada has become one big institutional cult of people telling each other what they're allowed to do, say, think, and know.

[Tokyo Rosie @RosieRocks28]

I fucking knew it!
Carney will rule over the ashes.

[Wyatt Claypool @wyatt_claypool]

Liberals are trying to dunk on Pierre Poilievre because he had nothing to do with the trade deal.

That is not the gotcha you think it is...

Will they also try and dunk on Pierre for not being involved in the Condo Bailout or the Alto Train?

[Our MSM is the enemy of democracy! @LanceNadeau3]

This is Carney’s Canada

[jimmy 📣 @JFN1971]

People like @WabKinew have zero self awareness…such arrogance. Most people with his background would have the awareness to not bring up the “bad people” narrative knowing very well that the conversation will 180 back to himself….this asshole has zero foresight…

[Tracey Wilson @TWilsonOttawa]

They’re not happy unless you’re a victim.
