Like him or not, I put more faith in Carney understanding numbers better than Trump. This '200Bn subsidy' thing is aimed at his base and the soundbite-based media, and is easily refutable by anyone who actually understands international trade.
Seeing as the chances of success of limiting constitutional democratic and mobility rights is probably pretty low, perhaps the solution is leaving democracy to the wisdom of the voters. If they feel they are adequately represented by a parachuted candidate who can't get around the riding without a map but wears a certain team sweater, who are we to argue.
In this case, the voters already had their say last week. Unless the goal is to have unlimited (and expensive) retries as long as someone's willing to step down for you to run in another riding, it's abusing the system. We also don't run a vote every week to make sure the people we elected last week get to keep their seats. By-elections were never meant to be mulligans.
I wouldn't dismiss the possibility of him actually believing that nonsense. His last couple interviews have been batsh*t insane.
That assumes he's actually read it.
Expect to see some snide comment about Joly.
Well, Trump does imagine himself as a contender. The bestest Pope there ever was (in the style of Borgia).
We may still, it’s early days. Joly seems to be improving in the role, IMO. We don’t see public calls for her ouster like in years past. Just for god sakes, keep Freeland away from foreign affairs, trade or anything USA related.

...you almost seem to share the same opinion with Trump on that. Perhaps that's a good reason to put her into those positions? Non?
