Linda McQuaig: With Carney’s budget prioritizing the business elite, could this be Canada’s Mamdani moment?
NDP leadership candidate Avi Lewis, like New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, openly advocates taxing the rich in order to provide benefits for ordinary people. Now there’s a wild idea.

From pharmacare to military spending levels to cuts to foreign aid, Mark Carney has repeatedly lied to Canadians over just a few months of being on the federal scene. As @lindamcquaig.bsky.social argues, there’s now a compelling opportunity for an unapologetic leftist populist. #cdnpoli

It's time to talk about income inequality in Canada. We can't build a truly democratic nation when so many people are relying on food banks and can't afford where they live.
Inequality is a breeding ground for extremist ideologies.

I just walked out of federal court where I pleaded NOT GUILTY to the charges against me.
I will continue to stand up to authoritarianism and call this out for what it is: a political prosecution.

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:
- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

You just know that “Did Women Ruin the Workplace?” bit would have done NUMBERS in this little clique
Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

AOC: How can we, as members of congress, Republican or Democrat, vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people? That is what this legislation does. In fact, Senator Graham said he was going to seek well over $1 million from the American people, from this.

With Mark Carney coming out as a true banker, the moment is ripe for left-wing populist Avi Lewis -- who knows the wealth doesn't trickle down. #cdnpoli #canlab #NDP www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Norway, a cold country, is already at 100% EVs for new car sales. Sweden, Finland, & China are now more than 50% EVs. BC & Quebec are ahead of the curve and have built out the necessary charging networks. All it takes is a modicum of vision something sadly lacking in our current crop of politicians.
