Canada

Every single complaint and fear about Poillievre, which would have also been true under him, can be applied to Carney. The ONLY thing this last election did was weaken the NDP, though at least the new leadership race is showing that they intend to be more aggressively progressive and don’t seem to be planning to move towards the center.

Anyone who votes Liberal in the next election, especially if they start up with that “strategic” crap, is a fucking idiot and we need to tell them that whether they’re family, friends, or partners. Do not “keep politics out” of those relationships; show them all the reasons that they are either wrong or actually just conservatives.

I’m so fucking tired of “moderates”. They can all burn for all I care, they seem to let others suffer and that removes them from the social contract as far as I’m concerned.

The US is not looking for energy dominance, they're looking to maximize revenue for O&G companies. There's a heck of a difference. For energy dominance, the last thing you want to do is scrap a $1B offshore wind project as they just did.

For energy dominance, the first thing to do is to maximize renewables. I don't need to read the article, the title means nothing but to flood both countries with wind turbines and solar panels so that locals don't have to burn their own fuel.

This government and their knee bending is making me regret being Canadian

Smash the petrostate.

Are you fucking serious??

EDIT: Ok so... to add to my reaction (I was on my phone and didn't want to type a full paragraph), we're basically endorsing the U.S. attacking Venezuela and kidnapping their country's political leader, bombing Iran and killing innocent people, and essentially endoring their previous wars in Iraq while we're at it because we all know what those were for. Like, how can Canada support this? Is it to appease Alberta with their threat of separation? Is the federal government so fucking spineless that they'll support genocide and murder, instead of growing one and telling Alberta to sit the fuck down and shut up?

We should be accelerating alternative energies to get oil out of the fucking equation as much as possible. We should be moving towards increasing electrified public transit infrastructure, electric vehicles and I'm not talking automobiles, but delivery trucks, vans, trash collecting vehicles, buses, etc. And investing in solar and wind power generation. Also reducing the use of plastics and a whole bunch of other petro-products.

We have a fucking banker with no fucking vision for a prime minister. He's still using the same old formulas and the same old ideas with the same old markets like those things are still going to save "the economy" (read businesses, not people's ability to purchase) with no regard for the environment because "it's not profitable" or whatever the fuck,

Unlike in the US, we very much CAN recall Hodgson.

COOL, COOL COOL COOL
