For those who keep trying to tell me I don’t understand how this all works, allow me to help you understand what’s happened here: There was about to be a be vote of no-confidence in Parliament, which would have forced Trudeau’s resignation and an election, which Poilievre was guaranteed to win. Knowing this and to avoid this, Trudeau froze parliament for two and a half months so he and the party could gin up another “emergency,” which only the Liberals and their new chosen leader, Carney, who shares Trudeau and his team’s agenda, can fight. Trump is their invented enemy, who they are working very hard to paint as exactly like Poilievre. Isn’t that convenient? Anyway, many Canadians have fallen for this and now the Liberals are up in the polls thanks to their plan, fear-mongering, and propagandizing. The party was done, now they’re back, and the economy is about to get even more fucked that it already was because the Liberals care about power, not Canadians.
Dear @MarkJCarney: as you may have concluded from my review of your book Values, I have my doubts about the validity of your ideas--all of them.

If you'd be willing to debate any of my analysis and claims, you have an open invitation to my podcast.
My recent discussion with @PierrePoilievre was arguably the most watched Canadian political discussion ever: 50 million plus views--in case you're wondering about my reach.
I've had my producer reach out to your team, but thought I should make my offer public.
Alternatively, you could continue talking to a few hundred people at a time on @CBC.
Our societies are too enslaved to market logic, and everything risks being subject to self-interest and the quest for profit. Volunteering is prophecy and a sign of hope, because it bears witness to the primacy of gratuitousness, solidarity, and service to those most in need.
During lectures, I switched from asking "does anyone have a question before I move on?" to telling "someone ask me a question before I move on" and it is so simple but SUCH a game changer. #AcademicTwitter
