Less than 2 weeks ago @MarkJCarney told me in person that C-69 was a barrier to large national energy projects and needed to be dealt with. Now he says he has no intention to do anything with it.
Make no mistake. If this law stays there will be few if any large scale energy infrastructure projects built in this country and Alberta and Saskatchewan will be cut off from international markets.
This means Canada will become MORE vulnerable to and overly dependent on the United States.
Albertans will not tolerate this and neither will I. Hopefully this election results in a new Prime Minister that can be trusted to get rid of these terrible policies.
Bob Fife on how Mark Carney doesn’t like to answer tough questions, especially about his finances and any conflicts of interest.
Fife notes how Carney gets testy with journalists who ask him questions he doesn’t like.
Thank you to @glen_savoie and @pcnbca caucus members for listening to the priorities and concerns of CFIB members in New Brunswick.

This morning, I met with Mark Carney, Canada’s incoming prime minister for a positive and productive discussion. We agreed on the need to stand firm and strong in the face of President Trump’s threats, including additional retaliatory tariffs in response to U.S. tariffs on steel and aluminum, which will raise costs for American businesses and families. Team Canada has risen to the challenge and proven that no one should ever underestimate the strength and resilience of the Canadian people. Together, we will get through this more united than ever before.
Canada won’t relent until the threat of tariffs is gone for good. I look forward to sitting down with U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick and members of the Trump administration’s economic team tomorrow. Facing the cost of Ontario’s 25 per cent surcharge on electricity exports, Secretary Lutnick extended an olive branch to start a conversation about the future of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. Over the coming weeks and months, I’m going to work with Secretary Lutnick, our federal partners and every premier in good faith toward a free trade deal that’s fair for both countries.
After Canadians stood firm, Secretary Lutnick today extended an olive branch. I’m going to work with him in good faith toward a free trade deal that’s fair for both countries.
Globe reporter Laura Stone: Mr Carney seems like he doesn’t feel like he owes the public an explanation. He feels like he doesn’t owe clarity on things he doesn’t want to talk about.
Mr. President, it is true.
I am not MAGA.
I am for Canada First. Always.
Canada has always been America’s best friend & ally.
But we will NEVER be the 51st state.
This exchange between Pierre Poilievre & Mark Carney was almost 4yrs ago, when Carney was at Brookfield & advising the Liberal government.
Carney supports making billions on foreign pipelines while suppressing Canada’s potential for virtue signalling ideological alliances with Liberals here.
I don’t care if Poilievre was “badgering the witness.” I’m sick of people whining about Poilievre’s aggressive manner.
This is what Canada needs to bring about REAL change for Canada.
Sneaky Carney said in BC in English that he will use emergency federal powers to force provinces to accept big projects.
In French, he says he will not force projects on unwilling provinces.
Sneaky. Sneaky. #JustlikeJustin
The RCMP now has Black Hawk helicopters that will be used to increase surveillance of our borders, helping to ensure border security. Black Hawks will be in New Brunswick tomorrow as part of this initiative. #BorderSecurity
