68% of Canadians approve of the way Carney is handling his job as Prime Minister
67% disapprove of the job Poilievre is doing ,
which means Carney leads Poilievre by 70 points

Funny how 🇨🇦 treats quality healthcare for all as a basic right, while 🇺🇸 politics often frames it around who “deserves” access.
I've lived with a 2-tier healthcare system in the UK
The private system steals doctors from the public system causing wait times to get longer
Alberta already has a doctor shortage, imagine how bad it would be if a significant portion of them left to work privately

The UCP’s plan to tackle wait times by introducing private pay in our health-care system is a step backward.
✅ It worsens access
✅ It widens inequity
✅ It jeopardizes quality & health outcomes
This has been tried before, & makes wait-times worse.

I don’t want an election.
I don’t think we should have to waste millions on an election.
But if an election is forced on us by the opposition parties, I am 10000000000% prepared to make sure they suffer for it and will vote for Carney again.

I see Progressive Conservatives in the 4th largest economy in North America being grouped with Liberals in the #1 economy in NA… Because PCs side with Reagan free trade over MAGA instability.
Q: Are you upset at Premier Ford for running this ad?
CARNEY: In any complicated, high-stakes negotiation, you can get unexpected twists and turns, and you have to keep your cool during those situations. It doesn't pay to be upset—emotions don't carry you very far.

She’s half right.
It wasn’t ‘get rid of this guy.’
It was: ‘I’ll back your agenda + give you a distraction, you change FCC rules so the Disney-Tegna monopoly sails through and billionaires cash in.’
It’s not personal with Kimmel and Disney - just business.

Jimmy Kimmel and other late-night comedians have certainly said things about me that I found offensive, even outrageous.
It never crossed my mind to call up the networks and say, "Hey, get rid of this guy."
Because that's not how America works.

My POV: If he’s the future of the CPC, they’ll never win. If this is the direction Conservatives are heading, it’s time for the Tories to split and challenge the Liberals as a separate force.
