Because the facts supported the reality that the consumer carbon tax was useless & a hardship for Cdns that other countries weren’t stupid enough to implement. Yet Liberals are still in power & ruining Canada. Why?
People are divided as to whether this is good or bad; I'm going with "this is unsurprising". During the campaign, Carney came across very well in scripted appearances, and became annoyed and rude when challenged. Have we forgotten "Look inside yourself"? This was on the label!
Coyne's classic both-sides shuffle, perfectly executed
He mocks Pierre Poilievre (and anyone noticing reality) for daring to call two quarters of negative growth a recession — "silly ritual," "we don't turn into pumpkins," etc
Then, in the same breath, he admits: Long-run growth has been glacially slow for decades.
The Justin Trudeau Liberals "probably did more damage" than Harper.
The current Carney government has "no new ideas" to fix it
Yet somehow the party that's held power for the last decade gets the gentle "both sides" treatment and zero accountability for the mess they're currently presiding over
It's peak Coyne: scold the opposition for stating the obvious, sprinkle some faux-evenhandedness, quietly admit the governing Liberals suck at growth... then pivot back to defending the vibe
Unbelievable mental gymnastics. Is he afraid boomers won't hire him for retirement home speaking engagements? @acoyne
I wish we could ban election outcome gambling, not because its worse than other types of e-gambling (though I'd support banning all online gambling) but because people are retarded about it and think degenerates are good at predicting elections.
The problem with Canada is that you have to wait for the failure to be fully realized and entrenched before anyone acknowledges the common sense in all the warnings for years leading up to it.

It really is just a Liberal propaganda network. The CBC legitimately thinks its job is to run interference for the Liberals.
Plenty of economists would call this a full blown recession. Cochrane is taking a side and fighting for it and it is ridiculous our taxes pay for it.
Someone else said this, but the real revolution in the GOP since Mitt Romney's defeat is that successful GOP politicians hold their opponents in open disdain and are not afraid to show it
It's interesting that the left considers JK Rowling an enemy even though they only disagree with her on one specific issue, while the right considers her an ally even though they only agree with her on one specific issue.
Classic Liberal bait and switch. The *press conference* was about antisemitism. The *actual council thingy* is about "racism and hate in all their forms."
The fact of the matter is Indiana had half of Alabama's NIL budget, a roster full of FCS transfers no SEC program would sniff at, and still beat Bama like a rented mule. That's not destroying CFB, that's saving it
