I would prefer to have a political party's press release at least run through the filter of a journalist first.

Carney’s “nation-building” projects put foreign corporations ahead of Canadians

Well is that the case? Carney announced 5 nation building project:

  • LNG Phase 2
  • Port of Montreal Expansion
  • Darlington SMRs
  • Saskatchewan Copper Mine expansion
  • BC Copper and Gold Mine expansion

As well as early stage support for:

  • Quebec Toronto High Speed Rail
  • Churchill Manitoba Railway & Port Expansion
  • Critical Mineral Extraction (at the Ring Of Fire in Ontario)
  • Upgraded maritime electrical distribution to spread offshore wind energy throughout the Maritimes and Quebec
  • An Alberta carbon capture plant and pipeline
  • Arctic Critical Mineral Extraction focused on connecting the North and North West of Canada

And the Green Party makes interesting and valid points about two of those being foreign owned, and their usual anti-nuclear points about nuclear (which have literally nothing to do with foreign ownership), and then fail to mention the rest.

Doesn't exactly support their rather broad headline.
