Over the last year & a half, Liberals made Canada complicit in Israeli war crimes.

They've sent a record high $20+ million in explosives & military components to Israel.

Carney's Liberals won't be any different.

Enough is enough, Canada must be a voice for peace and justice.

On Wednesday Mark Carney refused to say if he still holds $6.8 million in Brookfield stock options. He even bizarrely claimed "I own nothing but cash and personal real estate."

He should be clear: What did he put in the blind trust and what stock options does he hold?

Every dollar billionaires keep in tax havens is a dollar deprived from the services you rely on.

Mark Carney has consistently shown a willingness to put billionaires profits ahead of Canadians pockets.

Mark Carney isn’t in it for Canadians.

Started off the Election by visiting at the Keewatin Tribal Council Fishing Derby! A great day!

Looking forward to hitting the road and visiting throughout our region - making it clear that only the NDP fights for Northern and Indigenous communities.

The choice in this election is clear.

A Liberal banker who is not part of the solution when it comes to Reconciliation and has spent their career helping the rich get richer, a Conservative party that's inspired by Trump, and the NDP that has delivered to expand healthcare.

Mark Carney's Brookfield fought First Nations in court.

While Carney was in charge of Brookfields "green" energy strategy, Mississauga First Nation was forced to sue the company for violating their treaty rights over hydro dams.

He's right at home in the Liberal caucus.

Right before Mark Carney cut taxes for millionaires, 2 of his pals at Brookfield donated the max amount to him.

Canadians deserve to know what Mark Carney is hiding and who he's working for.

Politicians like Mark Carney or Pierre Poilievre want to intentionally weaken our tax system, making sure that the ultra-wealthy have it easier while you get screwed.

New Democrats will make the wealthy pay their fair share to get you the services you need.

Fair taxation has been a main pillar of the Canadian social safety net.

It's been critical in our ability to fund key social programs & deliver a high quality of life.

Time for a fair taxation action plan to fight Trump & strengthen the standing of Canadian workers.

Let's look at what Mark Carney did by shrinking the cabinet.

He chose to eliminate the Minister of the Status of Women and the Minister of Labour.

Carney couldn't send Canadians a clearer message:

He doesn't care about women's issues or workers' issues at all.
March 14, 2025 at 8:43 PM
Carney's government is not progressive.

Mark 'what's a billion' Carney is in it for his billionaire friends just like Poilievre, not for people like you.

Our North sees the second highest child poverty rate in Canada while the rich only get richer.

But Carney and Poilievre want to cut even more taxes on billionaires.

Every dollar they cut for their rich pals is money that isn't going to those who need it most.
March 12, 2025 at 2:42 PM
That’s quite the return on investment.

You can either get rid of child poverty or billionaires.

Mark Carney, like Poilievre, is making it clear whose side he’s on, and it’s not yours.
March 11, 2025 at 7:32 PM
Experts called Mark Carney’s firm, Brookfield Asset Management, “Canada’s top tax dodger.”

They diverted billions to offshore tax havens, depriving the Canadian public of much-needed tax-dollars.

He needs to come clean

Did Carney help Brookfield dodge billions in tax?

Elbows Up Canada!

At Trump. At his billionaire buddies. At those trying to take us on.

Proud to fight for Canadian workers, Canadian communities and our Canada along with my colleague @charlieangus104.bsky.social

Manitobans and New Democrats leading the way on pharmacare💪

The Liberals were promising this for years, but it took New Democrats to force them so you get diabetes meds.

And we know Conservatives love few things as much as cutting healthcare.
February 28, 2025 at 4:27 PM
Conservatives and Liberals let their ultra-wealthy pals get out of paying their fair share while taking money out of your pocket.

Time to tax the rich.

Progressive wealth tax now.

An elected Conservative politician in British Columbia denies the atrocities in residential schools ever happened.

This isn't just offensive, it’s shameful.

Is this really what Conservatives stand for?
February 24, 2025 at 8:30 PM
Billionaires are big fans of Mark Carney because of his lifetime of serving their interests or his commitment to keep the loopholes they rely on open.

Liberals may pretend to stand up for workers, but always pick the policies that help their rich donors.

Thrilled to take part in the 78th Annual Northern Manitoba Trappers' Festival!

Much appreciation to the incredible volunteers, the leadership and the communities of The Pas, OCN and the RM of Kelsey for giving us the chance celebrate the best of who we are!

Bell is once again laying off workers.

Their track record shows they'll take care of shareholders and give their CEO millions in bonuses while providing shoddy service to Canadians.

Liberals let this happen while Conservatives only know how to give tax breaks for billionaires.
