Canadian politics after the election. God help us. Also: German history, the NHL, and whatever amuses me. I've never voted Conservative. Can you say that? So, I was right about America being the bad guy?

Reminiscing about an interaction with the most typical Liberal (or Democrat) you'll find online. Years ago, I was arguing that Canadians should have dental care because teeth are part of the body, so it's literally healthcare, and because it's the right thing to do. A Liberal had issues with this.

The Democratic Party would be a lot better if it had embraced Zohran Mamdani the way it's embracing Marjorie Taylor Greene.

This place does seem like it is going nowhere. Just for Liberals and Democrats to tell each other how amazing they are. Whine about White House renovations and simp for late-night TV talk show hosts. You know, the important stuff. And "No choice but to vote Liberal!" and "Blue, No Matter Who!"

Partly because so many formerly leftwing parties have turned to the right, there's a lot of confusion about what right and left mean in politics. I hope this helps:
The right defends economic power.
The left resists economic power.

Somehow the “saying you’re sorry” part has dropped clean out of the list of things that are supposed to happen on the way to people granting you forgiveness

Carney to launch $13 billion agency for 4,000 affordable homes. That's $3.25 million a home. That's housing for 8-16,000 people. Canada's population is 41 million. Its housing shortfall is approaching 430-480,000 units annually. #cdnpoli #Liberals #fraud #incompetence

It looks like Carney and his cabinet will have to wait a little longer to be briefed by the creator of Project 2025. But they promise they totally will meet soon! Remember Project 2025, Liberals? Elbows up! #cdnpoli #Trump #conservatives

If Mark Carney had told voters he planned to drop retaliatory tariffs in order to stay in Trump’s good books (as he just did today), Carney simply would not be prime minister right now
This is another incredible flip-flop from a guy who appropriated “Elbows Up” as his campaign slogan

Liberals have been very concerned about mis- and disinformation in recent years, so when Mark Carney says carbon capture will allow for “decarbonized” oil, we should be clear that he’s engaging in active disinformation about climate change to please Danielle Smith and the Alberta oil industry.

China is offering to form a greater partnership with Canada in the face of US aggression, noting they’re the two countries that have responded most strongly to US tariffs.
Canada should see what China is offering, and speak to AU and NZ about how best to work with China.
