In this election cycle I don't think parties have a choice so the larger issue at hand is how it'll be done.

The White House initially said the flip-flop would leave Canada with another 10 per cent baseline tariff, but later reversed course. Ultimately, there are no new changes to tariffs on Canadian goods today.

I think we should stay the course with our reciprocal tariffs especially if we can get EU to do the same.

Trump might not always be dumb enough to pick a fight with someone his own size so we should take advantage of the situation.

Burns said all influenzas mutate and the H5N1 strain that emerged in 2021 is "significantly worse than other strains that we've had historically."

She said the hope is that wild birds develop more immunity and the virus mutates into a less damaging strain.

Pandemic researchers worry that avian flu could mutate into a widespread human illness, and Bourque noted human transmission is "always a concern because these viruses can infect mammals, including humans, which is another reason why we don't want it in our domestic bird population — because it is a threat to humans."

  • What happened to her was wrong
  • She tried to circumvent the American Visa process at a very bad time
  • She to this day is still a MAGA grifter

This is also the second name person that provide input on this:

The way he's portrayed in the article:

I'll also once again say that all direct links to Postmedia should be banned. Even if people post archived links the submitter should justify why they're using a non-credible source.

 

Summary that brought us to the amazing quotes above.

http://archive.today/2025.03.29-204249/https://nationalpost.com/news/mark-carney-plagiarism-accusations

  • Mar 28th National Post broke a exclusive story where Mark Carney apparently plagiarized his 1995 Oxford doctoral thesis
  • There's only a single person of significance providing anything worth discussing which is some overlapping phrases in the 300 page thesis but does not substantiate the plagiarism.
  • Mark Carney's doctoral supervisor responds:

Margaret Meyer, Official Fellow of Economics at Nuffield College, in the provided statement. “Mark’s thesis was evaluated and approved by a faculty committee that saw his work for what it is: an impressive and thoroughly researched analysis that set him apart from his peers,” added Meyer.

Which bring us to this from CTV (infamous for far right pandering as well last week) on Apr 1st: https://files.catbox.moe/h2ze4b.mp4

Reporter asking if Carney will continue to attack them when he doesn't like their work.

NP ends up squeezing like 4 articles out of this crap. Only to have this gem of a quote drop.

Professor A: Carney straight up copy pasta'd his Thesis

Professor B: This is the "most sophisticated plagiarism" he's seen.

Not saying Smith isn't. But she's so incompetent she seems to be losing Pierre votes.

Bory is registered as an independent candidate.

Actually a bit shocked he isn't running as a Conservative.

The Canada Politics sub which is supposed based heavily on "substance" where a few bit of those users participate allowed the NatPo account post there. At any given day probably 3-4 of top posts is PostMedia.

If you bring up the issue you'll get your comment deleted.

If you want to see the garbage she has to deal with first hand you can go to her posts on Tiktok and Instagram. You'll see someone threatening to rape and kill her within a few posts.

Just another example of traditional media avoiding facts when it gets to offensive for the Conservatives.

I'm sure they'll platform some far right stuff to "balance" things out.

 

I was going to leave this CBC thing till after the election but after watching this video where this creator talk about how she get constant rape and death threats for making progressive content while traditional media platforms some horrible conservative voices reminded me how CBC portrays the news these days.

In one of the first article after the public caught on to Danielle Smith admission to foreign interference CBC published a story where they tried to legitimize her advocating for American officials to interfere with our election because she "just answered a simple question".

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/alberta-premier-smith-u-s-canada-election-interference-breitbart-1.7491318

Smith just answered a simple question, says analyst

Gitane De Silva, founder and principal of GDStrategic, a public policy group in Calgary, said Smith is allowed to have a personal political opinion and that, as a conservative, she would support a Conservative government.

"I think she was just answering a question that she was asked," De Silva said about Smith's comments in the Breitbart interview. "Just like President Trump has commented on who he'd rather work with, Premier Smith would rather work with a Conservative government in Ottawa."

Then they follow it up by downplaying Breitbart as merely Trump friendly.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/danielle-smith-breitbart-poilievre-trump-sync-analysis-1.7493168

Less so her weeks-old remarks to a Trump-friendly media outlet about a strategic Washington "pause" on tariffs to avoid boosting Liberal fortunes, and that Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre was "in sync" with the direction of Donald Trump.

 

Archive link to Breitbart article: https://archive.is/UQuX1

Recording link of the quote there's also a link in the article but it goes to Breitbart Soundcloud account :

“Before the tariff war, I would say yes. I mean, Pierre Poilievre is the name of the Conservative Party leader, and he was miles ahead of Justin Trudeau. But because of what we see as unjust and unfair tariffs, it’s actually caused an increase in the support for the liberals,” Smith responded. “And so that’s what I fear, is that the longer this dispute goes on, politicians posture, and it seems to be benefiting the Liberals right now. So I would hope that we could put things on pause is what I’ve told administration officials. Let’s just put things on pause so we can get through an election.”

Pierre would bring would be very much in sync with, I think…the new direction in America,

 

For anyone out of the loop certain people have latched onto this thing about Carney's possible PAST assets that isn't a standard for anyone else. What I'd like to bring up one of the people pushing this stuff out is CBC.

This is the same thing we've seen Americans news outlets do where as Trump style politics has completely overtaken the right wing politics and the Traditional Media has been trying make things look fair and balanced by artificially making the insane look sane while the anyone else is held to a increasingly high standard.

Current day mainstream media is already heavily right wing dominated.

Going back to CBC I don't understand what they're doing because the right wing thinks they're propaganda while the left has to watch them put out straight up hit pieces while begging to be saved.

I already brought this up leading up to the BC election when CBC had no real substance on a story and essentially just brought in random people to shit on the BC NDP.


https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/carney-assets-questions-1.7486242

Carney announced last week that he has put his financial assets into a blind trust to shield himself from any conflicts of interest.

.....

A blind trust means Carney's financial assets are handled by a trustee who has the legal authority to manage them but who is barred from seeking his input. Carney wouldn't know what is in his blind trust portfolio, but would know what those assets were before they were divested.

Under the current government ethics rules meant to guard against conflicts of interest, Carney had 60 days to disclose his assets to the ethics commissioner upon being sworn in and another 60 days before that information goes public.

Asked Monday if he should disclose what financial holdings he had before they were put into the blind trust, Carney said he has exceeded the expectations of the current rules and is being held to a different standard.

....

"Your line of questioning is trying to invent new rules. I'm complying with the rules that Parliament has laid out and… I will continue to comply with those rules," he said.

Also whatever this is :

Prime Minister Mark Carney pushed back on reporter questions about his financial holdings during a news conference on Monday.

The unnamed reported in question is Rosemary Barton - Chief Political Correspondent for CBC the same news network he works for.
