What's going to be really fun is watching Reform argue that they are a "force for change" when they are stacked with the exact same people who lost the last election after being in power for 14 years.

The ICE murders in Minneapolis are a “glimpse of what happens when fear and loathing of migrants curdles into toxic tribalism, another grim warning for all those European voters flirting with the far-right and dark forces of nationalism.”

Also not even a bit ironic that he is completely validating Carney’s Davos speech here.
Has to try to humiliate Carney after being upstaged at Davos by calling him “Governor”, while hypothesizing that China will do to Canada what he is actively threating to do himself. This biggest export by far is heavy oil to Midwest refineries at a big discount that have no other source.
