🚨 Mark Carney has lost his mind.
The Canadian PM just told Canadians that the United States is a bigger threat to Canada than Communist China.
Absolutely ridiculous.

To set the record straight.
On Nov 4: it was Unifor who requested a meeting of all 4 parties. Not the federal government.
Cc @MSidhuLiberal you must have missed this.

Before vs after floor-crossing to the Liberals
Totally a coincidence 🤣
Former Conservative MP @MarilynGladuSL joined the Liberals in April, turning Sarnia—Lambton—Bkejwanong red for the first time in more than 20 years.
Her riding gets two nods in the budget, a library expansion through the Build Communities Strong Fund and renewed money for Sarnia-Lambton PrideFest if organizers apply. (2/7)

CPP Investments, in response to a lawsuit claiming they're under-estimating climate-related risks in their investment strategy, is now arguing that they have no fiduciary duty to CPP plan beneficiaries:
Reminder that floor-crossing MP Marilyn Gladu stated in an interview that her riding requests "went really nowhere, until I crossed the floor"
Now that Gladu is a Lib, the budget includes investments for her riding

Then why not include it in the PR target? It's like having a budget and saying expenditures will be $500B... and then having an additional $150B which doesn't show up on the income statement because it's only a one-time thing and you promise you won't do it again.

This is a pure weasel answer. Just admit you're raising PR targets against the will of the majority of Canadians.
Have the courage to say it and defend it. Let's have the discussion.

The biggest unreported story from yesterday: Carney snuck into the budget a massive immigration increase with the LARGEST NUMBER OF NEW PERMANENT RESIDENTS EVER next year.
Nearly 200,000 more than Trudeau’s highest-ever number year. When we have a shortage of jobs, homes, and health care.
Now we know why Carney snuck his immigration plan into a budget when everyone was distracted by the midterms and right before Parliament shuts for 10 days.
Unacceptable. This needs a real debate.

I liked a lot of things in the budget, but I absoltuely cannot stand these "one-time measures" that are excluded from the permanent residence targets. They should be built into the targets, so we can make an apples-to-apples comparison.
Alright guys, I have fundamentally changed my view on future population growth following Budget 2026. It's very clear now that the govt will continue to roll out "one-time" initiatives to convert temp residents into PRs.
We'll get official levels at the end of Nov, but this is where we're going from what I see in the budget
CPC should be all over this
Carney's immigration levels are genuinely atrocious for Canadians' accessibility to healthcare, education, housing, transit, and employment.
🚨 While Canadians die in wait of healthcare, while class sizes grow, while housing becomes less affordable, while job growth slows, while traffic worsens…
🚨 MARK CARNEY SETS RECORD HIGHS IN IMMIGRATION, THEN HIDES HALF OF IT OUTSIDE HIS IMMIGRATION PLAN IN “ONE-TIME MEASURES”

People are sometimes like "Carney is basically governing as a conservative!" but this budget of his really dispels that. His is truly a vision of a government-planned economy, down to which sports people should be playing.

“The government says its 2027-2029 immigration levels plan will admit 380,000 permanent residents and 370,000 temporary residents each year.”
What the fuck.
