If there’s one learning lesson you need to take away in 2026 it’s that the truth doesn’t matter anymore and reality isn’t real.

People will invent narratives and facts to suit desired objectives and if enough people agree, that’s the new reality. People who point out that the emperor has no clothes will be crushed. Katherine Maher of Wikimedia said it best herself. “Our reverence for the truth is a hindrance to getting things done.” (Paraphrasing)

We’re living in a world where lies don’t matter anymore. There are only words and how effective they are to reaching desired outcomes. People don’t care about the truth. They care about achieving their goals.

We’re living in Demon times.

Mr. Carney,

You stood at a podium yesterday and told Canadians that this country thrives because we are Canadian.

It was a beautiful line. Polished. Applause ready. It was also insulting.

Because it confuses thriving with surviving, and only someone who has never had to do either could make that mistake so confidently.

Canadians do not thrive the way you describe.

We endure. We adapt. We make do. We get through.

We get up early not because it is inspiring, but because bills do not care about speeches. We work late not because it is fulfilling, but because standing still is not an option. We shovel our own driveways because help is expensive, unreliable, or nonexistent, and we still show up on time.

That is not thriving, Mr. Carney. That is survival with dignity.

We survive when systems fail. We adjust when costs rise. We absorb broken promises and carry on anyway. There is no applause line for that, because survival does not photograph well.

We survive because farmers plant knowing Ottawa might change the rules halfway through the season. Because tradespeople build while being taxed, regulated, and lectured by people who have never risked payroll on a slow month. Because parents budget groceries like a tactical exercise and still manage to raise decent kids without permission from a federal narrative.

We survive because Canadians are practical. When something breaks, we fix it ourselves. Not because we want to, but because waiting for government help usually means waiting forever. Or being told the service exists on paper.

You speak of thriving while Canadians quietly ask which services you are referring to.

Healthcare that exists in theory. Housing plans that never house anyone. Affordability programs that arrive long after the damage is done.

We survive because communities step in when institutions step back. Not because systems are strong, but because neighbours are. We rely on each other because experience has taught us not to rely on governments that measure success by how well they explain failure.

We survive because small businesses stayed open through lockdowns, fines, shortages, and paperwork that multiplied faster than revenue. Because families absorbed inflation while being told it was temporary. Because seniors adapted quietly to shrinking purchasing power while politicians assured them relief was coming.

You call this thriving.

Canadians call it getting through.

We survive because we know how to get through winters. Literal ones and political ones. We stock up. We brace ourselves. We do not expect rescue, especially from people who have never had to wait for it.

We survive because we question authority. Just ask the Freedom Convoy. Canadians have an instinctive allergy to being ordered around by people who exempt themselves from the consequences. We remember what happens when compliance is mistaken for unity.

We survive because we do not confuse slogans with reality, no matter how high the elbows go or how loudly we are told to clap. We know the difference between leadership and performance. Between patriotism and appropriation.

And while governments waste money, restrict rights, censor speech, divide citizens, and congratulate themselves, Canadians quietly keep the country functioning anyway.

That is not thriving. That is resilience under pressure.

So when you tell Canadians they thrive because they are Canadian, it lands differently on those of us who have actually lived it.

Because confusing survival with thriving is easy if you have never had to survive.

And that is the problem.

Mark Carney speaks of thriving from a life buffered by boards, institutions, and global forums. A life spent above the consequences does not teach you the difference between getting ahead and just getting through.

Those who have never had to survive often mistake endurance for success, and then try to take credit for it.

So no, Mr. Carney.

Canadians are not thriving because of you.

We are surviving despite a government that made life harder, more expensive, more divided, and then attempted to dress our endurance up as its achievement.

Our resilience is not your accomplishment.

It is proof of a people who carried each other while being lectured by someone who does not recognize the difference.

And Canadians are done applauding the performance.

My advice to you Mr. Carney?

Before defining Canadians, try surviving as one.

As always,
Melanie in Saskatchewan

I’m worn out hearing people moan, “Our grandparents could buy a house on one paycheck, but now we can’t even afford rent on two!”

Yeah, maybe because Grandma wasn’t dropping half her income on $14 iced lattes and avocado toast shaped like art projects. Back then, if they wanted coffee, they boiled it at home in a dented pot. It tasted like burnt rubber and regret — but it woke you up and cleaned your pipes.

And Grandma wasn’t “out to brunch.” You think she had time for mimosas and hashtags? She was making something called whatever’s left in the fridge and feeding six people with it.

Don’t even start with Uber Eats. You think Grandpa was out here paying $38 to have a burger delivered three blocks away? Please. He grilled mystery meat on a rusted barbecue, and everyone called it dinner.

Now people cry about being broke while sitting in a house full of gadgets. Two SUVs in the driveway, six streaming services, three air fryers, and matching tattoos that cost more than their light bill. You think Grandpa had a tattoo? He did. It said “Korea, 1951,” and it came with trauma, not Instagram likes.

And the kids—Lord help us. “We can’t make ends meet, but Brayden needs the new iPhone!” No, he doesn’t. You’re handing an $1100 device to a child who still eats crayons and forgets to flush.

When we were kids, there was one phone. It hung on the wall like a family relic. The cord stretched just far enough for you to whisper secrets before someone yelled, “Get off, I need to make a call!” And guess what? We lived.

The TV? One. In the living room. With three channels and a dial that clicked like a safe. And if Dad wanted to watch bowling, you were a fan of bowling, end of story.

Now there’s a flat screen in every room, the baby’s got an iPad, the dog’s got a camera, and everyone’s wondering why they can’t afford rent.
Because you’re living like rock stars on retail salaries, that’s why.

Grandpa wasn’t leasing Teslas or buying $12 smoothies called “Green Zen Awakening.” He drove a truck that coughed smoke, rattled like a storm, and smelled like oil and hard work.

They lived within their means. Whatever Grandpa brought home on Friday — that’s what they had. They weren’t keeping up with the Joneses; they were keeping the lights on.

So yeah, Grandpa bought a house on one salary. But he also didn’t have a gym membership, three delivery apps, and emotional support crystals on his nightstand. His only support system was Grandma, who told him to quit whining and mow the yard.

Nowadays, everyone’s broke, anxious, and “manifesting abundance” while ordering tacos on DoorDash for the fourth time this week.

It’s not the economy — it’s the lifestyle.

Wake up, turn off your subscriptions, make your own coffee, and maybe—just maybe—you’ll smell the truth.

Hey, @grok, who was the most famous person to visit my profile? It doesn't need to be a mutual, don't tag them, just say who it was

[Collin Rugg @CollinRugg]

Indian man in Canada who tried paying for s*x from a 15-year-old gets a conditional discharge simply because he's an immigrant and a conviction would "delay his citizenship."

Utter insanity. Canada is a joke.

According to Justice Paul Thomas O’Marra, treating 30-year-old Akashkumar Khant like a Canadian citizen is unfair because the conviction would unfairly impact his life.

"Mr. Khant is a permanent resident seeking Canadian citizenship and professional licensing," said O’Marra.

"A conviction would not only delay his citizenship by four years but could also prevent him from sponsoring his wife and obtaining his engineering licence."

"These immigration and professional consequences are far more severe than those faced by (an offender in a similar previous case), who was a Canadian citizen with no such vulnerabilities."

"Courts have recognized that such consequences can justify a more lenient sentence, including a discharge."

"A conviction would lead to severe collateral consequences, such as jeopardizing his immigration status, delaying his citizenship, and preventing him from sponsoring his wife, which would likely result in their separation."

"These consequences would be disproportionate to the offence and would undermine his rehabilitative progress."
