Thanks to Hansard (and ParlVu), we have access to the flip-flop receipts (from May 28 - less than a week ago).
I think today's announcement by @MarcMillerVM gives the win to @RachaelThomasAB for the win over @Kevin_Lamoureux and @mylesdavid

BREAKING: New reporting from @althiaraj reveals growing internal tension within the Liberal caucus, with MPs alleging that Prime Minister @MarkJCarney is tightly centralizing power and reacting harshly to internal dissent. 👇🧵 (1/5)
Danielle Smith today in Quebec calls Steven Guilbeault the most destructive politician to national unity that we’ve ever seen.
She says of she was proposing an alternative referendum question that Steven Guilbeault should never be allowed to run for political office again she would get 100 percent support.
She goes on to make a very good point, imagine she went to Quebec and told the people there that she was going to make sure they would never produce hydro electric power or aluminum ever again how would they feel?
A man was detained and escorted out of a Toronto public library after allegedly entering while carrying several weapons. He stated the items were connected to his religious beliefs.
The incident comes as Canada continues debating religious accommodation policies involving ceremonial blades and similar items.
What are your thoughts?
BREAKING: The Senate has REJECTED the Senate Human Rights Committee’s amendments to Bill C-9, including the criminalization of residential school “downplaying.”
The NDP voted to give the Liberals a majority on all Parliamentary committees after they stole a majority through floor-crossings.
Now, over a month later, the NDP is pretending to do something about it when they know that the Liberals can safely vote down anything they want.
That is why Canadians need to ask a more careful question before expanding the Criminal Code: what is the right tool for the problem we are trying to solve? Sometimes the answer is law. Sometimes it is education. Sometimes it is cultural change, public debate, better journalism, archival research or institutional accountability. A mature society must be able to distinguish between conduct that should be criminalized and speech that should be challenged, debated, corrected or rejected.
There is a real difference between someone promoting hatred against Indigenous people and someone questioning a media report, a government statement or a public claim. The former may properly attract legal scrutiny in narrow circumstances. The latter is part of democratic life.
The history of residential schools deserves seriousness. So does freedom of expression. A confident democracy should be able to protect both.
In 2018, Australia passed the Telecommunications and Other Legislation Amendment. The bill bears strong similarities to C-22. 🇦🇺
What happened after?
- 22% of firms cut R&D investment
- 36% of firms reported TOLA made their global risk environment worse
- Australian firms lost contracts. Big ones.
The problem is, 🇨🇦 is much more exposed than Australia ever could be.
Just yesterday the entire @liberal_party gov voted against the motion by the @CPC_HQ to reverse this ridiculous tax increase, today @MarkJCarney does exactly what the @PierrePoilievre asked him to do yesterday???
Seriously WTF is wrong with this Parliament & Gov???
Today's announcement to review the CRTC’s Online Streaming tax decision is welcome. American firms want to invest in Canada's creative sector, and a fair, nonburdensome framework makes that possible.

BREAKING: Toronto star leak on Carney government inner workings:
“He yells”
“He punches down at caucus all the time.”
"He told them not to speak to journalists or write to the prime minister with their concerns because their letters could leak."
These stories often noted the contrast with Carney's public push for diversity, inclusion, and a "speak up" culture (e.g., his speeches on leadership and ethnicity). Critics highlighted the numbers as evidence of cultural issues under his watch, while the Bank emphasized investigations as a sign of improved reporting mechanisms.
September 2019: Disproportionate impact on women and minorities — The Times reported that women and ethnic minorities were more likely to experience bullying/harassment at the Bank, despite Carney's diversity initiatives. One summary noted 25 incidents investigated between June 2009 and January 2019.

🚨 OMG. SEC. SCOTT BESSENT JUST WENT THERE 🔥
SEN WYDEN (D): We don't want ramblings about the most corrupt regime in history, we want facts
BESSENT: "And we'd like to hear what Adam Wyden and Jeffrey EPSTEIN talked about. Your son's largest investment position was Rick's Cabaret. So, did your son and Jeffrey Epstein talk about pole dancing as he begged him for money using your limited credibility?"
ASSASSIN.
