I also fully supported the consumer carbon tax and wasted far too much time trying to explain it to people.
PM Carney cancelling it won the election.
Now the only way to keep the cons out of power is to have policies that the majority can understand and support.
Not ideal but those are our cards.

The excellent media scrum this morning included Indigenous Services Minister Mandy Gull-Masty. I'm so impressed with how articulate, intelligent, calm and candid she is. What a great addition to the federal cabinet.

The news media scrum this morning with Liberal cabinet ministers was awesome.🔥 It was passionate and informative about why they aren't voting for the insulting, misleading and time-wasting CPC motion about the MOU.

If you find video coverage of it, please share.

It’s time for Canada to have a Press Secretary like the US. Constant silence from the Fed Gov about all the horseshit disinformation on the Right drives me up the wall. Outline the direction of the Gov while also drumming down Russian & American propaganda. Silence creates cultists.

In September this article stated that Canada won't/can't hit its 2030 climate target, so why is the recent MOU with Alberta being blamed?

Canada won’t meet its 2030 climate target. Now what?
It's clear that Canada cannot hit its 2030 climate target that it set under the Paris Agreement. Now what?

#Alberta, where the UCP is big-mad that their recall legislation isn't being used as intended (against the NDP). Oh Karma, you're the best!

Carney believes that the implementation of a minimum emission credit of $130/tonne, which will happen by April 1, 2026, will be more effective and sustainable than the measures that have been suspended. This is not capitulation but rather changing the strategy to one that he believes will work.

I used to splurge on nonessentials at the grocery store. I didn't notice sale prices or membership points either, or use a cash-back credit card, or plan how to use up all the food in my fridge, freezer and pantry.

Those days are gone.

Bravo Jean Charest for disagreeing with Steven Guilbeault's comments about the MOU, the decarbonization program, and QC separatism. Starts at the 6:40 mark.

The start of the interview is also worth a listen (about CUSMA).
