I can’t figure out what makes less sense for a free market democracy. A government supported dairy cartel or a government funded media cartel.

Only people who understand neither kids nor the internet would look at this and think, "Yeah, this is gonna work." "While Australia's ban was brought in with huge fanfare, it is widely acknowledged that many under-16s continue to use the 10 platforms covered by the law: Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Threads, TikTok, X, YouTube, Reddit, and streaming platforms Kick and Twitch." bbc.com/news/articles/cy4181…

One of the greatest tricks pulled off by those in positions of power is convincing ordinary citizens to fight each other while they continue taking more power, more money, and demanding more control. Citizens are working harder, paying more, and receiving less. The cost of living keeps rising, public services continue to decline, and yet when people point out the obvious and ask for a greater say in the decisions affecting their lives, they are told their voices should be limited, ignored, or overridden. Think about that. The very people asking to be heard are dismissed, while those responsible for declining outcomes continue to claim they are acting in the “public interest.” If the public is spending more, receiving less, and watching core services deteriorate, then something is clearly not being done in the public interest. Too many public officials have forgotten that they are supposed to serve the public, not manage it, control it, or insulate themselves from it. Public office is a position of trust and responsibility, not a vehicle for personal ambition, self-interest, or endless performative nonsense designed to create the appearance of action while accomplishing nothing of substance. At this point, there is little evidence that giving government more power, more money, and more control has produced better outcomes for the public. Citizens are paying more, receiving less, and watching public services decline. Yet those responsible continue to insist they know best and should be entrusted with even greater authority. It is time to start trusting citizens a little more and those in power a little less.

"Tax Freedom Day is today in Canada. Food Freedom Day was March 21 — nearly three months ago. In the United States, Food Freedom Day arrived even earlier, on March 7. The comparison is striking: Canadians spend far more of their annual income covering taxes than putting food on the table. It's all a matter of perspective." Full article below.

#BREAKING: Canada has entered a recession after GDP growth declined for the second consecutive month. Canada has only seen one full quarter of growth since Mark Carney entered office.

RE: Carney's non-response today: (This is from one of my recent newsletters) A lesson for the old guard from a newbie in the field: I don't know how we got here, but we need to end this idea of polite journalism. Interrogation is your job. You're supposed to be a shark. When you sense fear, witness stuttering after your questioning and are assaulted by personal attacks from politicians, consider that blood in the water. Don't stop. Follow its trail. Be hungry. Be curious. Don't borderline interrogate. Go for the jugular, and if the question doesn't get answered that day, show up the next day and remind the politician that you have a list of questions that he or she hasn't answered satisfactorily, and that you're not leaving until they do. This isn't impolite or uncivil. No prime minister should be telling a journalist "point final." When Carney said this to Levitz, he also said it to every Canadian, and that's inexcusable.

Mexico started their formal negotiation on CUSMA this week. Crickets from Canada. We can keep bemoaning "tone and sentiment" from the White House. But that does nothing to advance our interests with our largest trading partner and security ally. #cdnpoli
Harrison "But it was the Prime Minister that said we have to deal with the world as it is. This is the world as it is." "So what is Canada meaningfully doing to advance our interests in this time rather than griping from the sidelines?" @KatlynHarrison

CBC doing usual CBC things. Deceiving and misleading Canadians. On brand.

RCMP Members and Veterans were intentionally tricked into critical and humiliating interviews for a taxpayer-funded CBC/APTN production. We are calling for an immediate halt and a full inquiry into how this was approved, funded, and executed. Read our full release: npf-fpn.com/news-item/rcmp-m…

🚨 Funny how the media suddenly acts confused about why the Pentagon stepped back from the Canada-U.S. defence board. 🇨🇦🇺🇸 They know exactly why. For over a year, Mark Carney has been touring global stages declaring the Canada-U.S. relationship is “over” and pushing for economic separation from our largest ally and trading partner. Washington listens. Actions have consequences.🇺🇸 You can’t spend a year undermining the relationship publicly… then act shocked when trust starts disappearing. 🤷‍♂️ Video : @ryangerritsen #cdnpoli #USA #Canada

The Star reportedly pulled Supriya: She criticized Carney on Modi. Called out the India file. Questioned the foreign interference cover up & Bill C9. Now she’s gone. You’re allowed to write whatever you want about Carney in Canadian media. As long as it’s nice. 🤣
I just learned what happened to Supriya Dwivedi at the Toronto Star. Many already know that my column at La Presse was pulled last month after 25 years of collaboration, following Facebook comments in which I expressed concerns about editorial bias in the media. Now, a similar situation appears to be affecting Supriya, a thoughtful and respected commentator. This is deeply concerning.

Things Liberals said were dangerous MAGA behaviour: ✅ Questioning election results. ✅ Claiming voter fraud without evidence ✅ Demanding investigations after losing ✅ Refusing to accept the outcome Things Nate Erskine-Smith did today after losing his nomination race: ✅ All of the above The same party that called Pierre Poilievre MAGA. Oh, and Carney personally endorsed Nate. Who lost to a man born in Bangladesh. He had: His federal MP platform National media coverage. The endorsement of the Prime Minister The full Liberal establishment behind him The system that beat him? Temporary residents voting. No ID. Bengali ballots. Members who didn’t know they’d signed up. His own party’s rules. His own party’s machine. The most ironic moment of 2026.
