@elonmusk@grok@DOGE CPAC applauds cruelty. There must always be a show. Could have done this in a way that didn't humiliate and terrify people, but MAGA's not about that. It's not even about saving money. It's the show that matters.
@joerogan@JohnCleese We're not Americans, Joe. Your idea of free speech isn't ours. A person who really valued free speech would respect that.
Stop imposing your norms and values on us, and calling that "freedom".
@PierrePoilievre If we allow Canadian culture to be shaped by private market-forces alone, we'll become American by default. You don't have to like the CBC as is, but you'll need robust public broadcasting to defend the idea of Canada. Unless you're an American proxy.
@SemperVeritasX American talking point. "Communism" is an American paranoid fantasy that doesn't actually exist. They just talk about it when they want to justify interfering in another country's affairs. Wake us up when you have a legitimate Canadian perspective.
@WBrettWilson Right? If only we vote conservative and become de-facto Americans, everything will be fine. Almost as though we're being pressured into doing that. Like we couldn't be trusted with having the choice to oust Trudeau on our own.
@ztisdale Reminder that there's no such thing as a "Canadian libertarian". Libertarianism is only coherent with reference to the American constitutional framework. People pushing American norms & values on Canadians - in the current environment especially - are traitors by definition.
@brianlilley And if she'd been allowed in, you would have been attacking her for "foreign interference". Relax, Bri: we see you for exactly what you are.
@calgaryherald Under Lougheed, our royalty share came to ~30% of oil & gas sector revenues. That's why healthcare worked fine under him. Under UCP, our royalty share is less than 5% of corporate revenues, and shrinking. That's it. That's all there is to this issue.
@mark_slapinski You're really banking on being one of the chosen conservative elite who will be rewarded for suppressing Canadian resistance to the Americans stealing our resources. Not sure you're gonna make the cut, kid. You could wind up in the same concentration camp as the rest of us.
@elonmusk So, just like the Saudis then. You gave the Saudis a free pass - even rewarded them after killing an American journalist. Kind of a mixed message there, boss.
The Luigi Mangione case reminds us that even aggressive, young, white, American males in their primes need universal healthcare. Only lobbyists for various private interests think otherwise.
@brianlilley Always remember: The point of Trump's pressure campaign/info-war against us is to empower our Right Wing elements, destabilize Canadian democracy, undermine Trudeau & install a conservative American proxy govt. And none of it works without people like you.
@calgaryherald Looks like somebody's feeling the heat from corruption/cronyism allegations. Better break out the ol' Ottawa's-out-to-get-us routine. Works every time.
@calgaryherald Such an obviously fake narrative. Worst thing Ottawa has done to us is buy us a pipeline we said we had to have; a pipeline that adds 10 billion a year to our treasury. It's exhausting, pretending to believe Smith's diatribes are real. About as real as Trump's border hysteria.
