It is coming.

[Nita Kang @NitaKang]

Wake up Canada.

Starmer, Macron, and Carney are simultaneously coming for our right to free speech.

It's not a coincidence.

It's not about the kids.

@WallStreetMav I do $25 per week, but the deal is half goes into an investment, and half for spending - he's much more interested in what's happening in the investment account.

Whatever is going on in the world, Thomas Sowell always got there first and summed it up perfectly.

🚨 Canada’s institutional capture is now complete.

Since 2015 the Liberals have appointed:

⚖️ 740 of 1,000 federal judges
🏛️ 7 of 9 Supreme Court justices
📜 100 of 105 senators
📰 Fund 30% of every reporter’s salary in Canada

And that’s just the foundation.

Add to that:

📺 CBC: $1.4B annually to defend the Liberal narrative

🏦 Bank of Canada: Redefining recession in real time

📊 StatsCan: Counting Census workers as permanent jobs

📬 Senate: Hiding 240,000 democratic postcards in a warehouse

🌐 Bill C-8: MPs can delete you from the internet without a judge

🎙️ Carney on tape: Admitting central bankers bypassed voters on ESG

They control the courts.
They control the Senate.
They control the Supreme Court.
They control the media funding.
They control the state broadcaster.

Now they want to control the internet.
Not one institution left standing independently.

This is not democracy.
This is managed decline with Canadian characteristics.

And most Canadians are still waiting for CBC to tell them about it.

@ThouDothProtest @RealNicoLagan You're right. My mistake. Carney is completely responsible for the TSX results. I was sadly mistaken for thinking that it's a complex system with many influencing factors. Sorry about that.

[Mark @rmarka]

The TSX rally is real but says little about Carney's greatness - it's mostly luck of the cycle, not leadership genius.

1. The gains are mostly global/commodity-driven: Gold/oil surges, materials & energy sectors.

2. The weak Canadian dollar has also been very good for exporter profits.

3. Rate cuts and market rotation also helped.

4. Stocks do not equal the economy: consumer insolvencies have hit record highs (highest since 2009 financial crisis), household debt is 103% of GDP, and food bank usage doubled. These are not great metrics.

5. Markets are forward-looking and volatile. Crediting one leader for a strong 12-months ignores many pre-existing trends and broader struggles like mortgage renewals and business stress.

@GregviiGreg @KatKanada_TM @liberal_party Sure thing champ. I'm not a supporter of anyone. I'm a supporter of good/interesting ideas. You asked a question and then didn't like the answers. That's a you problem, not a me problem.

[Mark @rmarka]

Here's some additional reading for you:

On capital flight from Canada: A recent RBC report documented that between 2015 and 2024, more than $1 trillion of investment exited Canada.

Here is the exact quote:
" Canada is emerging from an unprecedented capital recession. The renewed interest comes after a decade of weak business investment, stalling productivity, and stagnating living standards. Between 2015 and 2024, more than $1 trillion of investment exited Canada—the largest capital exodus in Canadian history. For every dollar of inward FDI, two dollars exited."

You asked a question and I answered it, then you moved the goal posts...then you moved them again. I'm not sure why you'd bring a red herring like Poilievre into this. You may buy into a particular cult of personality but I don't. Stop trying to make assumptions that don't hold water.

[Mark @rmarka]

What's your problem? You said no businesses had left. I gave you a handful of documented tax paying businesses. You used the term business - you didn't say "manufacturing business with market cap of $1B". These companies pay high wages to skilled workers - and they have chosen to move out of Canada for a number of reasons. When you're ready to pull your head of your behind, and have a proper discussion, let me know, but you're just being a turd.

@GregviiGreg @KatKanada_TM @liberal_party GFL

[Mark @rmarka]

Here's a handful of publically traded off the top of my head that have moved headquarters to the US recently: Brookfield, Laidlaw, GFL, Richie Bros, Waste Connections. Im sure I've missed some. TFI International, Shopify and Barrick Gold have also talked about moving but not pulled the trigger. There are 100s if not 1000s of smaller companies who have moved, especially in the technology field. I know a few personally.

Canada is in Jeopardy.
This is excellent. You may have to watch it twice to catch everything.
Canada needs the U.S. & boycotting them is a futile endeavor.

🌍 Three energy rich countries.

Three different choices. 🇨🇦

🇳🇴 Norway:
Found oil → Built fund →
$1.7 Trillion in wealth ✅

🇦🇪 UAE:
Has oil → Builds pipeline →
Secures Asian markets ✅

🇨🇦 Canada:
Has MORE oil than both →
Debates carbon markets →
Signs MOUs →
Misses every window 💸

Same resource.
Different governments.
Completely different outcomes.

This is a choice. 🇨🇦

[Pierre Poilievre @PierrePoilievre]

Here is how you get something built fast to respond to a crisis:

FEB. 2022 – Germany decides it needs to break its dependence on Russia for gas.

APR. 2022 – 60 days later, the German gov't permits a brand-new import terminal and pipeline.

DEC. 2022 – Project complete. Gas flowing.

They told me how they did it 👇

C-22 is looking like a huge mistake. It worries me a great deal. There is so much nonsense in there that It may well end up dealing a death blow to Canadian tech viability.

[Windscribe @windscribecom]

We won't be far behind if C-22 passes. In its current state, VPNs would almost certainly require us to log identifying user data.
Signal isn't headquartered in Canada so they can just shut off Canadian servers, but our HQ is. We pay an ungodly amount of taxes to this corrupt government, and in return they want to destroy the entire essence of our service to basically spy on its own citizens.
Not happening. We'll move HQ and take our taxes elsewhere.
