I don't like this at all. I've supported what Carney has been doing up this this point, but not on this. Enough people need to sound of against this and get him to back off.

You supported him making the Air Canada attendants’ strike illegal in an attempt to ignore their right to organize and to help the company continue to exploit them? You supported the firing of 40,000+ federal workers in a time of an already high unemployment rate and a weak economy? You supported them getting rid of the need for environmental reviews related to natural resource extraction so that O&G companies could take our stuff and maybe face a weak punishment in the future? Did you also support when Trump first attacked Iran and within hours he said “Canada will unconditionally support the US”? How about how he still won’t call the genocide in Gaza what it is?

Look, I’m glad something has caught your attention but are you fucking serious? Welcome aboard, I guess, just please pay better attention in the future.

I feel the same. If they didn't sell the 407, then it would have been free pretty soon, and would have generated tremendous income. These sales are always short-sighted and never benefit Canadians in the long run.

At least you have the ability to sound off and voice displeasure and disagreement.

The problem with doing nothing and letting the worst in for some idiotic sense of sel-integrity, is that the worst will respond to that criticism with violence.

As America is demonstrating actively.
