Carney and Poilievre have very different ideas for a new deal with Trump

Every political leader in Canada has declared U.S. President Donald Trump an unreliable partner who is reneging on the USMCA trade deal that he signed, so you have to question why the leading election contenders would rush to negotiate a new deal with him.

Liberal Leader Mark Carney and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre both now say they would launch negotiations immediately after the coming election, not just on trade but on the broad defence and security relationship, too.

Yet those two leaders have very different ideas of what a new deal would be.

Standing up for supply management is not standing up for Canadians

What do you call a Canadian political leader, in the age of Trump, who seems to put their own interests “ahead of the country” in the matter of Canada-U.S. relations?

It depends on the province, and it depends on its particular interests. If you’re Premier Danielle Smith in Alberta, and the particular interest is oil and gas, and you really lean into it — “Our province is no longer agreeable to subsidizing other large provinces who are fully capable of funding themselves,” she said last month — you get called a traitor and a quisling.

Pierre Poilievre says willingness to quickly drop problematic candidates sets him apart from Mark Carney

OTTAWA—Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has rebuffed criticisms of his party’s vetting process after he dropped four candidates in less than 48 hours.

Instead, the Conservative leader said he was better than Liberal Leader Mark Carney at handling situations involving controversial candidates because he has responded to concerning allegations more quickly.

“Our vetting process is stronger than all the other parties. That’s why we have a zero tolerance for anyone who acts unacceptably,” Poilievre said at a news conference in Kingston.

LILLEY: Carney tells another fib – the man can’t recognize the truth

Mark Carney’s sales pitch to Canadians is that he is an economist and the man who saved two economies in crisis.

But his claims don’t really live up to scrutiny, including a claim that he made on Thursday while responding to Trump’s latest tariffs.

I get a sense that Carney believes his honeymoon is permanent and Canadians will uncritically eat any shit he offers.

Crisis for Canadian Jewry

… At the eye of the storm is the Liberal Party of Canada and its new leader, Prime Minister Mark Carney. Many would argue that in the past decade, the Liberal government under former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau increasingly empowered antisemitic elements. In the name of “diversity”, “equity” and “inclusion”, it has encouraged extreme radical ideologies and runaway antisemitism. It has failed to act decisively against imams who call for the shedding of Jewish blood. It has ignored incitement on university campuses, tolerated the spread of anti-Israel and anti-Jewish libels and defamation through public broadcasters that it funds. In the process, it has encouraged antisemitic opinions to intensify and be legitimized.

Carney pledges $150M of your money to buy fealty with ‘underfunded’ CBC

Liberal Leader Mark Carney said on Friday that his government would provide an initial $150-million annual funding increase to CBC and Radio-Canada as part of a new mandate for the public broadcaster.

“When we compare ourselves to the U.K., France or Germany, we see that our public broadcaster is underfunded,” Carney said in French during a campaign stop in Montreal. “That has to change.”

That initial funding top-up could rise, Carney said.

Smith slams those exploiting Canadians for electoral gain by ginning up a brawl with the U.S.

Bell: Smith slams those whipping up Canadians for a brawl with the U.S.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is not shutting up because people who call her a traitor want her to shut up.

On Thursday, Smith has something more to say to Albertans and the rest of Canada.

“Rhetoric that amps up Canadians to encourage a brawl with our biggest trading partner is irresponsible and will hurt Canadians and their businesses.”

Carney’s Dad Referred To Aboriginal Children As Culturally Retarded

Untangling Mark Carney’s father’s ties to Fort Smith, N.W.T., Indian day school

“Mr. Carney, at the teachers conference not long ago, you told about a program you have working at the Joseph B. Tyrrell (JBT) school in Fort Smith for culturally retarded children,” the host began. “First of all, would you define a culturally retarded child for me?”

The reply was unequivocal and direct.

“A culturally retarded child in the context of the Northwest Territories is a child from a Native background who for various reasons has not been in regular attendance in school,” said Carney.

Terry Glavin: Beware, Mark Carney’s affection for authoritarian China

Liberal MP Paul Chiang said something profoundly unpardonable. Liberal Leader Mark Carney was perfectly content to pardon him for it. But public outrage ensued, so Chiang fell on his sword and resigned. End of story.

Except it isn’t the end of the story. It’s only going to get darker from here on in, as China waits, hopes and plans for Canada to return to the Trudeau-era embrace of the motherland.

Poilievre calls U.S. ‘unreliable,’ vows to revoke defence, trade commitments if Washington keeps violating pacts with Ottawa

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says the United States is no longer a reliable partner and has vowed that, if his party were to form the next government, he would revoke defence and market access agreements with Washington if it violated a renegotiated trade deal with Canada.

He also pledged during a campaign stop in Kingston that he would eliminate the 5-per-cent federal goods and services tax on purchases of new, Canadian-made automobiles and light trucks, for a $2,500 savings on vehicles that cost $50,000.

Mark Carney’s values could remake Canada—so what are they?

Is there a “there” there when it comes to Canada’s newest PM? I just read his 600-page book and still have no idea

The Right Honourable Mark Carney is now Canada’s prime minister; and since he has neither held elected office nor spent much of the past years in Canada, we must turn elsewhere to divine his views about the country of which he is now the leader, as well as his outlook on the world more broadly.

HEINRICHS: Are Canadians all in for globalism?

No one calls out globalist politicians better than Marjorie Taylor-Greene. In 2024 the US congresswoman won her second landslide election, and she now chairs the influential DOGE subcommittee.

On Taylor-Green’s website she puts it straight: “Our government is supposed to work for the American people, not foreign nations.” She says one of her country’s biggest problem is that “globalist politicians in Washington, D.C. continue to put the American people last by putting their interests and the interests of other countries first.”

Poilievre disagrees with ex-Reform boss that voting Liberal will lead to ‘Western secession’

KINGSTON, Ont. — Pierre Poilievre said Thursday he disagrees with calls from former Reform Party leader Preston Manning that a vote for Liberal Leader Mark Carney amounts to a “vote for Western secession.”

Manning, whom Poilievre, the federal Conservative leader, has known since his teenage years in Calgary when he become involved with the erstwhile Reform Party, penned an opinion piece in The Globe and Mail, arguing Carney poses a threat to national unity, particularly in Western Canada, which has long been aggrieved with the policies of the Liberal government around natural resources.

CHARLEBOIS: Make no mistake, Canada still at war with world’s largest markets

Canada may still be reeling from a bout of political and diplomatic shock—call it Post-Disruption Stress Disorder (PDSD)—following the April 2 announcement in the Rose Garden by President Trump.

But for both Canada and Mexico, the news was less damaging than feared. Despite the sweeping “Liberation Day” tariffs unveiled that day, our two nations were spared. So were American grocery shoppers.

The 51st state panic was a hoax played on Canadians by our politicians and the press

Yes, poor gullible, fearful Canada. You were played.

Not by U.S. President Donald Trump. You were played by power-seeking politicians in this country. You were played by many in the press in this country.

Reality came to call one day after the date set aside for playing jokes on people.

Chicken Little was wrong. The sky isn’t falling. Canada’s end times are not upon us.
