**Liberals love blaming Trump for $1.90/litre gas…** But here’s the inconvenient truth: Oil hit **$100/barrel** under Stephen Harper — gas topped out at **$1.38/litre**. Today? **$1.90/litre**… with oil at the same price. That’s **52¢/litre** in Liberal taxes, carbon taxes, and taxes on taxes. Same oil price. Different government. Different result. 🛑 STOP BLAMING TRUMP Start blaming the tax-and-spend grift that’s crushing Canadians at the pump. 👇🏻 Canada First — not more Liberal gas taxes. 🔥🇨🇦

RBC says that's the total that fled Canada as a whole

The lost decade. Incredible damage from the Trudeau era.

@CHED880 #cdnpoli #cdnmedia @globepolitics @CBCTheNational @garymasonglobe @CTVNews Over $1 trillion of investment capital fled Canada. Between 2015 and 2024. Under Trudeau and Carney's Liberal leadership. But the Cdn media insists our real problem is Trump. Go figure.

Andrew Coyne on all those things opposition is important for... only after CBC and Canadian media spent the year holding the opposition to account for Carney's failures "Opposition members actually do useful work. They're holding the government to account, they're exposing government wrongdoing, they're making ministers answer for their portfolios." Coyne doth defend deliberately too late @acoyne

Par le plus grand des hasards, la ville de Terrebonne actuellement en élection, reçoit 64 millions de dollars en subvention du fédéral. Voilà comment on achète des votes. #liberals #Moly #Terrebonne

Funny what you can do when you start including the cost of planting trees on military bases and shuffling an unarmed Coast Guard from Oceans & Fisheries to the DND. I should hire the feds as my accountants and CTV News to run cover for me if I get audited.

@CHED880 Related point. The only reason Carney is bumping up (manipulated) defence spending and having the audacity to brag about hitting 2% is that he's under pressure from Trump to do so. Along with other NATO laggards.

Yeah, because they moved the Coast Guard under DND and are including the spending on new life boats and tree planting at military bases towards the 2%.

And here is the piece that Judy Trinh put together after asking Carney the challenging question She replays his answer without a fact check But to her credit, she does include "A senior government official told reporters that the Major Projects Office has not yet approved a single project since it was created last August." @judyatrinh

We must hang on to Brian Lilley, one of the very few honest and fair journalists left in Canada!

Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux has been acquired by the Liberal Party of Canada. Price not disclosed.

@globepolitics Spector nails it. But it's even worse than he describes. Mason the Alberta-bashing 'climate crisis' pusher actually lives in Tsawwassen. A stone's throw from Cda's biggest coal export terminal. Yet I've never seen him write about it. How strange. 😉

I could say the same thing about Canada. The corruption and incompetence of those in power is a gut punch and so hard to watch.

🇨🇦⚖️🔫💉 : Liberal MP Ruby Sahota says since forming government Liberals have implemented a tough on crime agenda. She blames Conservatives for blocking a crackdown on the fentanyl crisis. 🤥FACT CHECKED AS FALSE : January 2023 Liberals decriminalized carrying over 2 grams of fentanyl. Which is enough to kill or injure hundreds of people. ⚖️ In 2025 Liberals twice defeated Conservative bail reform bills that would have imposed strict mandatory sentences for serious crimes & repeat offenders. 🇺🇸 Liberals claimed the CPC plan mirrored the USA too much to be a Canadian solution. Even though the policies have proven to work in the USA. ⚖️ In 2019 Liberals passed bail reform Bill C-75 which weakened our bail system considerably. ⚖️ In 2021 Liberals passed Bill C-5: An Act to amend the Criminal Code and the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. This removed mandatory minimums for most crimes. Bill C-5 Removes mandatory minimum sentences of imprisonment prescribed for certain offences under the Criminal Code (the Code) that relate to firearms and other weapons and the unauthorized sale of tobacco and tobacco products; Removes all mandatory minimum sentences of imprisonment prescribed for offences within the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act5 (CDSA) Removes limitations placed on the use of conditional sentences of imprisonment; and amends the CDSA to require that peace officers and prosecutors consider referring people to treatment programs or other support services, rather than charging or prosecuting them for simple drug-possession offences. lop.parl.ca/sites/PublicWebs…

This is not quite as epic as Jordan Peterson schooling Cathy Newman in 2018, but it's right up there. Jeff Rath delivers a master class on how to deal with an aggressive journalist. He was on fire, absolutely quick on his feet. That's because he's true to his convictions, and isn't juggling lies in his head. The bit about being a Queen on the chess board was brilliant.

Dear Liberal Voter, I have a challenge for you. Prove you are not as easy to manipulate as your party assumes you are. For nearly a decade, Liberal politicians have relied on fear more than facts. When Justin Trudeau was prime minister, his government repeatedly framed Donald Trump as an existential threat to Canada. That messaging saturated the media ecosystem. When Trudeau resigned, Mark Carney did not abandon that narrative. He inherited it and amplified it. The villain stayed the same. Only the messenger changed. You were told Trump was dangerous. You were told Canada was at risk. You were told Pierre Poilievre was “basically Trump.” You were told democracy itself was on the line. None of this came with operational detail. None of it came with military analysis. None of it came with economic logic. It came with repetition, mainly through CBC and Liberal talking points, until it felt true. Now look at reality instead of headlines. Canada and the United States are each other’s largest trading partners. In 2024, bilateral trade exceeded nine hundred billion dollars. Canada supplies roughly sixty percent of US crude oil imports. Canada and the US share NORAD. We share intelligence systems and aerospace defense. There are US military assets on Canadian soil by treaty. An American invasion of Canada would mean destroying its largest foreign energy supplier, one of its biggest export markets, and one of its closest defense allies. That is not strategy. That is economic and diplomatic suicide. Liberals claim to be the most intelligent and thoughtful among us. So be intelligent. Be thoughtful. Here is your first test. If I am wrong, show me one Pentagon document, one NATO warning, or one serious defense analyst who says the United States plans to invade Canada. Not a headline. Not a panel discussion. Not a CBC chyron. A document. You cannot, because the story was never meant to survive evidence. So why was the narrative pushed? Because fear is politically useful. When Trudeau was in office, he spent years portraying Trump as a uniquely dangerous villain. Mark Carney, who served as Trudeau’s economic advisor during the last years of that government, then ran his leadership campaign almost entirely on stopping Trump and standing up to Trump. Once Trump had been fully demonized, Pierre Poilievre became “Trump-like.” Not because of policy. Not because of voting records. Not because of legislation. Because the name itself had already been conditioned to trigger panic. That is not persuasion. That is psychological association. Now let us talk about something closer to home. The things you say about Pierre Poilievre. How many of you have said Pierre is a liar? Now tell me what he has lied about. And prove it with a document or an official record. Not a meme. Not a pundit. Not an opinion column. Actual proof. How many of you have said Pierre will privatize health care? Show me the bill. Show me the platform plank. Show me the policy document where he says that. How many of you have said Pierre will ban abortion? Here is where that narrative collapses. Since becoming Conservative leader, Poilievre has repeatedly stated that abortion is a settled issue and will not be reopened under a Conservative government. He has said this publicly and consistently. More than that, Conservative Party members voted to remove abortion from the party’s policy agenda. Not a Liberal cabinet. Not a Prime Minister’s Office. The Conservative membership itself. So if you are still saying he will ban abortion, the question is not what he believes. The question is what you are repeating without first fact-checking. Show me the legislation he introduced to restrict abortion. Show me the policy resolution he is running on. Show me a vote in the last decade where he proposed it. Specifically, the liberals have twice in the past few years dragged up abortions putting Pierre's face on it as a scare tactic yet nowhere did he even utter a word to lend credence to the Liberal's claims. You cannot find it, because what you are holding onto is a talking point, not a fact. How many of you have said Pierre will gut CPP or cut pensions or change when you can retire? Find the Conservative policy paper that says so. You cannot, because most of what you repeat did not come from policy. It came from memes. It came from headlines. It came from political advertising dressed up as news. This is confirmation bias at work. A meme agrees with what you already feel, so you accept it. A graphic looks official, so you treat it as fact. A slogan sounds moral, so you stop asking questions. Memes are not evidence. Viral posts are not documentation. Outrage is not proof. Now answer this honestly. Can you clearly explain what Poilievre has done that is worse than the Liberal record you are defending? Under Trudeau, housing prices rose more than eighty percent nationally. Average rents doubled in many cities. Federal debt more than doubled. Grocery prices rose more than twenty percent since twenty nineteen. Immigration targets exceeded housing construction by hundreds of thousands of units per year. These are not opinions. These are Statistics Canada and CMHC figures. They are measurable outcomes. So why does none of that dominate the Liberal message now. Because fear of a villain is easier than defending results. This is how gaslighting works. First Trump was cast as evil. Then Conservatives were cast as Trump like. Then voters were told only Liberals could protect them. Fear replaced evidence. Here is another test. Explain precisely how an American invasion of Canada would work. How many troops. Through which border crossings. Against which bases. With what justification. At what cost to US trade and NATO alliances. If you cannot describe it in real terms, it is not a threat. It is a story. And notice what you are about to do now. You are not preparing evidence. You are preparing a label. Dangerous. Extreme. Trumpism. That is what people do when they cannot refute something but still want to dismiss it. Here is another uncomfortable truth. If Trump truly planned to attack Canada, Trudeau would not have treated him as a campaign prop when he was prime minister, and Carney would not be doing so now. A real threat would be handled quietly through defense channels. When fear becomes a slogan, it stops being about safety and starts being about power. Watch the pattern. Whenever Liberal polling drops, Trump reappears in speeches. Whenever domestic failures become too visible, the villain shifts south. That is not coincidence. That is narrative management. So here is your dare. The next time you hear anti Conservative rhetoric from a Liberal politician, a pundit, a family member, or a friend, stop and fact check just one claim. Pick one statement about Pierre Poilievre or Conservatives. Start with the actual words used. Then look for official supporting documentation. A bill. A vote. A policy paper. A platform statement. Not a meme. Not a headline. Not a panel discussion. And most of all, look for context. All parties present one side of a story. Real understanding comes from seeing the whole exchange, not just the clipped quote. If you are not sure how to fact check, ask someone how. There is no shame in learning. There is only danger in never questioning. Then ask the hardest question of all. If Conservatives are so dangerous, why does the Liberal Party need imaginary threats instead of its own record. You do not look informed when you repeat slogans. You do not look principled when you outsource your thinking to politicians and broadcasters. You do not look brave when you panic on cue. You look frightened, like a group of Chicken Littles running amok in the mistaken belief the sky is falling. And frightened voters are the easiest voters to control. So go ahead. Get angry at this. Try to prove it wrong. But bring evidence, not outrage. Bring documents, not labels. Bring logic, not fear. Because the real insult is not coming from Conservatives. It is coming from the people who believe fear is all it takes to own your vote. Melanie in Saskatchewan 👇🏻 buymeacoffee.com/melanieinsa…

Just goes to show when you let your country become uncompetitive with layers of taxes, regulations and laws that make it too expensive to do business here, money and people move elsewhere. Just really sad to see this. But it is rational. Just ask Carney where he invests. USA!
