Liberal leadership hopefuls are turning away from some of Justin Trudeau’s policies. Here’s what they say they’ll actually support

OTTAWA—Defence spending is hot. The consumer carbon price is not. And at least two “czars” are on offer to help solve the nation’s problems.

With little over a month left before Liberals choose Canada’s next prime minister, the candidates to replace Justin Trudeau are starting to fill out their policy visions. There is broad agreement on issues like the desire to preserve Trudeau government social programs, including dental care, child care and public coverage of diabetes medication and contraception.

GUNTER: Make no mistake, Mark Carney will win the Liberal leadership

Make no mistake, Mark Carney will win the Liberal leadership on March 9, one month from now, and become prime minister, at least for a few months.

I know Chrystia Freeland is also running. And Freeland deserves credit for performing one of the most merciful acts in Canadian political history — sticking the shiv into Justin Trudeau so that he finally, mercifully, took the hint and announced his resignation.


The Liberal problem is they have no one running who isn’t closely linked to the reviled Trudeau regime and that includes Carney who is at best Trudeau no.2.

The TDS bump in LPC polling fortunes won’t last forever.  Once the truth about about Carney’s China, WEF, Climate Cult & UN links become more widely known he will be seen for what he is a globalist shill installed by the Laurentian Elite. 

Despite the effort to paint him as a man with the common touch he comes across as the John Kerry of the north reader PA Cat aptly noted.

‘Should I just laugh?’: Energy experts question Freeland’s pledge to push LNG

OTTAWA – Liberal leadership candidate Chrystia Freeland’s pitch to export liquefied natural gas (LNG) to allies is drawing skeptical reactions from those who say her government neglected the sector over the past decade.

The former finance minister’s policy statement on jobs and growth, released on Feb. 5, includes a pledge to “seize the opportunity to make Canada an energy superpower, from powering our grids with hydro to exporting liquefied natural gas to our allies.”

BERNARDO: Crisis control and the Liberal leadership race

Justin Trudeau’s time as Prime Minister is marked by strategic alliances and policy shifts with a single goal: to keep him in power.

His political maneuverings are finally running out of steam and, with disastrous approval ratings, deepening economic hardship, and a string of scandals, even the party he brought back from the dead is preparing for life after Trudeau.

GOLDSTEIN: Trudeau Liberals say they were wrong about almost everything so re-elect them

Call it the great deception – the federal Liberals suddenly claiming they’ve seen the light on all of the mistakes they’ve made in governing Canada for almost a decade.

Throughout the ongoing Liberal leadership race, the candidates have been tacitly admitting that on major issue after major issue, their outgoing boss, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, was wrong and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre was right.

Once a ‘crass mathematical calculation,’ NATO’s spending target is now an article of faith for Liberals

NATO’s two per cent defence spending target, derided only last summer as a “crass mathematical calculation” by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, was feverishly embraced this week by the Liberal leadership hopefuls vying to replace him.

The statements represent a remarkable conversion for the governing party, which has looked upon the gross domestic product goal — even under intense allied pressure and the occasional public shaming — as arbitrary and meaningless.

“We’ve always questioned the two per cent as the be-all, end-all of evaluating contributions to NATO,” Trudeau said last July in Washington — after meeting with allied leaders and leading U.S. lawmakers and after belatedly committing to reach the benchmark by 2032.

Liberals lie.

Michael Higgins: Emperor Carney acting like he’s already in charge

When Augustus, Rome’s first emperor, seized control of the state, he liked to boast that he came to power because all of Italy “swore allegiance to me of its own free will.”

Now, the enthronement of Liberal leadership hopeful Mark Carney as the first emperor of Canada seems all but assured, as ministers, media and minions enthusiastically fawn over him.

Freeland targeted by ‘malicious’ WeChat campaign with alleged ties to China: Threat task force

Chrystia Freeland’s Liberal leadership campaign has been targeted by “co-ordinated and malicious activity” traced back to a WeChat account accused of having ties to the Chinese government, according to the task force set up to monitor foreign election interference.

According to the Security and Intelligence Threats to Elections Task Force (SITE), which is made up of senior intelligence and security officials, the activity was traced to WeChat’s “most popular news account — an anonymous blog that has been previously linked by experts at the China Digital Times to the People’s Republic of China.”

My bet is Trudeau and Carney ordered this up.
