Why do some Canadians think @markjcarney is doing a good job? 🤔 In this clip, Jonathan Harvey breaks down why so many Canadians think Mark Carney is doing a strong job — and why that perception may be misleading.

He explains the bar was set incredibly low by Justin Trudeau… 👉 So all Carney has to do is communicate better and look more controlled. But beneath that image, a different reality is unfolding: 👉 What’s being praised as foreign investment isn’t actually benefiting Canada the way people think.

Countries are bringing money in — but they’re not buying our LNG, energy, or goods. Instead… They’re buying our infrastructure, assets, and production.

Short term, it looks like growth. Long term? 👉 Canada risks giving up control of the very things that generate wealth. What’s being sold as progress… …may actually be a slow loss of economic independence.

I don’t care anymore.

I’m just gonna say it.

This never sat well with me.

The Liberal MP resigned, over an accident on the way to Ottawa (classifies as work),

A YEAR AGO,

that was so bad, that no one knew about it until yesterday.

And the accident was so bad that he could still work for almost a full year before resigning?

And now I’m finding out from @RealAndyLeeShow that he went to China?

But can’t travel to Ottawa?

And he’s LIKELY eligible for 70% of his MP pay for the next 20 years (retirement or until he “recovers”) through the long term disability benefit MPs get via their PSMIP?

The media doesn’t question it.

At all?

And yet, when a Conservative MP resigns, immediately MSM finds a way to attack Pierre?

Meanwhile Carney has had 2 MINISTERS QUIT, and others leave with ZERO backup prospects or job lined up?

HOW IS NO ONE INVESTIGATING OR QUESTIONING THIS?

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

🚨 JUST IN: The Liberal government gave Permanent Residency to a Jordanian immigrant who openly said “Allah is the greatest” in reference to murdered women left in a pool of blood.

Are these the values our Prime Minister welcomes with open arms?

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

BREAKING: Canadians returning from ISIS are “highly likely” to pose a violent extremist threat.

Who would have guessed?

And here’s the kicker: the Liberals have been bringing them home!

-Repatriated 9 ISIS affiliated women (they only charged 3 of them)

-Toronto woman who married an ISIS fighter, returned to Canada

-4 ISIS men may be next, including self admitted sniper, Muhammad Ali, of Mississauga

-Most of these ISIS members coming back to Canada, are placed are on peace bonds, not in prison, a bond.

CSIS says these people have received “weapons and explosives training.”

Our own intelligence agency says they are highly likely, a threat.

The Liberals, they booked their flights anyway.

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

A public apology & correction is owed.

@MarkGerretsen has “quit” X

But is active on Facebook & Instagram.

He lied to 750,000+ Canadians regarding the Gordie Howe bridge.

He also defamed Poilievre in the process.

Accused him of misinformation.

But it was in fact HIM & the Liberals who were LYING to the public.

Not Pierre.

His video is still up.

No apology.

No correction.

The Liberal government owes us all an apology & explanation of why they lied, withheld the agreement from the public & defamed the Leader of the Opposition in the process.

[Barton S. Zowtuck @zowtuck]

@TheoFleury14 Absolutely NOT!

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

‼️ BREAKING: Carney just caved to Donald Trump on the Gordie Howe Bridge.

Canada paid the entire $6.4 billion. Michigan paid ZERO.

Carney’s record with Trump:

-Retaliatory tariffs: dropped

-Digital Services Tax: dropped

And now the Gordie Howe Bridge?

Trump has surrendered nothing.

Carney has surrendered everything.

Elected to handle Trump.

Handled by Trump.

This is capitulation.

NO WONDER CARNEY GOT MAD WHEN HE WAS ASKED ABOUT TRUMP.

Carney’s response when asked if he’d renegotiate: “We’re willing to clarify aspects of the current arrangements.”

Trump’s response: “MUCH BETTER DEAL for America.”

Carney failed and got mad when asked about it.

Politically, he knows this will hurt him.

The pattern is clear.

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

‼️ BREAKING: The Trump administration is holding hearings this week on 10% tariffs against Canadian goods.

Every serious country sent delegations to Washington to make their case.

Canada sent nobody.

Not a minister.

Not an ambassador.

Not a trade official.

A Canadian citizen paid his own airfare to Washington to defend Canadian jobs.

He testified in front of the US Trade Representative because his own government would not.

CANADA WAS ELECTED A PRIME MINISTER BECAUSE HE WAS THE ONLY PERSON WHO COULD HANDLE TRUMP.

Trump held a hearing on tariffs against Canada.

Carney sent a nobody.

A private Canadian did the Prime Minister’s job.

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

The most disgusting example of malicious political prosecution.

The Emergencies Act was used illegally.

And nothing happened to the government!

They get away with it.

Meanwhile, they’re still actively trying to destroy Chris & Tamara’s lives.

USING OUR TAXES!

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

Bro, imagine going back in time to 2012, telling Harper:

-a drama teacher will become the PM
-he will have an economic babysitter
-the babysitter will then take over & be PM
-they will accumulate more debt than every PM in history combined
-all of BC will be under a land claim
-criminals will get reduced sentences so they don’t get deported
-the PM will treat 24 Sussex like the Sagrada Familia & ask for donations to rebuild it but will spend billions to bail out wealthy donors
-you will fire Dimitri Soudas & his fiancée will cross the floor to the Liberals…
-…then, in 2026, he will then lecture us on what it means to be Conservative
-3 million temporary residents will have their visa expire… and stay
-the guy on The Apprentice will be the President of America & hate our PM
-CBC is still around even though everyone watches TV through the internet
-people will use pronouns & do land acknowledgements

He would never believe me bro.

Ford: bails out 2200 condos in Toronto

Carney: bails out 2200 condos in Vancouver

Ford gov't: “..using innovative financing tools..."

Carney: "...leverage innovative financing tools..."

Both use your taxes to bail out wealthy developers.

Both are Liberals.

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

Wow!

In an interview, Carney explicitly states “no bailouts.”

No such thing as too big to fail.

Explains how people are rewarded or punished for risks.

SO WHY IS HE BAILING OUT HIS WEALTHY DONORS?

This is corruption at its finest.

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

🚨 BREAKING: Edward Snowden risked his life to expose the US government secretly using tech companies to spy on Americans.

Bill C-22 just passed in Canada and it does the exact same thing except this time it isn’t secret.

The Carney government is doing in PUBLIC, what the Obama administration tried to do in private.

The Liberals can now order Google, Apple, Bell, Rogers, Meta, X, Signal, anyone, to hand over your data in SECRET.

They are legally banned from telling you.

No warrant.

No judge.

No notice.

They didn’t even bother to hide it.

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

According to the Liberals, Canadians are:

>“technically” hungry
>“technically” unemployed
>“technically” using food banks
>“technically” experiencing crime
>“technically” in a recession
>“technically” being shut out of US trade talks
>“technically” not allowed to ask their own province a question
>“technically” not in a housing crisis
>“technically” not paying for Chinese baby formula exports

They insult our intelligence.

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

How incredibly devastating.

Canadians were told that Carney:

✅ Is the best negotiator against Trump

✅ Has the best resume lead the country

✅ Can lead us through turbulent times

✅ Elbows up against US tariffs

The reality:

😖 The only G7 country in a recession

😖 Household savings went down

😖 Food bank use at all-time highs

😖 Negotiated nothing with Trump

😖 Dropped all counter tariffs

😖 Created a Sovereign Debt Fund that will cost taxpayers $750 million per year

😖 Spent $200K on airplane food

😖 Biggest deficit in Canadian history (outside of COVID)

😖 24 hrs before GDP numbers dropped, told US that Canada can Make America Great Again

😖 Signs secret policing agreement with China

😖 Angers 14 of his MPs with 1 quitting

Canadians were lied to.

Manipulated.

The Prime Minister was boosted & promoted by China to win.

He holds almost all of his investments in the US.

Refuses to make a deal with the US & instead goes into the arms of China.

He has his Harvard degree & his PhD.

That’s what makes this even more catastrophic.

By every measure, Carney has failed.

[Andrew Scheer @AndrewScheer]

🚨 BREAKING NEWS!!! 🚨

Mark Carney just voted AGAINST protecting private property rights in land claims.

He's telling government lawyers that they are not allowed to fight to protect your home ownership.

You pay your mortgage and your property tax. Your property rights should be protected!

[Theo Fleury @TheoFleury14]

Carney is the biggest loser. Hey look everybody we’re in a recession don’t worry though it’s a good thing. Me and all my loser friends are going to print more money for everybody but Canadians. Then we’re going to tax the shit out of you. It’ll make us the strongest economy in the G7. The media who we’ve bought and paid for will tell you we are continuing on the path of greatness. Then we’re going to jail and silence all the separatists in Alberta so they can’t become prosperous. Also we will shut down the internet so they can’t hold us to account anymore. Did I leave anything out????

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

When the floor crossers happened.

Everyone attacked Pierre.

Gladu, just admitted that the Liberals offer money to Liberal ridings,

IF THEY CROSS THE FLOOR.

Unconstitutional madness.

And yet, they still attacked Pierre’s leadership.

Fast forward to today:

14 cowardly Liberal MPs, sign a letter against Carney,

The media protects them,

No names.

One MP, quits as a minister.

And now, he may leave the Liberal caucus altogether.

So my question is:

WHEN WILL MEDIA ATTACK CARNEY’S LEADERSHIP?

14 unhappy MPs.

One quitting.

A province that wants to separate.

It’s a disaster.

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

Can anyone point to a single right that straight people have, that LGTBQ people do not?

Because all I’ve seen, is a disproportionate amount of jobs, that straight white people cannot apply to.

You literally have to identify as gay to get it.

It’s madness.

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

Liberals were hit by community notes on X.

Not once

But twice

First they lied about affordability

Then they lied about Bill C22 not being a big deal

Who would ever trust the same party that illegally invoked the emergencies act?

Then fought the Courts over the ruling?
