"Canada does a lot of trade with the much larger U.S. economy...2.6 million Canadians, 13 percent of the work force, are employed directly or indirectly producing goods exported to the United States. So U.S. tariffs will impose a huge shock on Canada’s economy.

It's not clear how much Carney can or will do to mitigate that shock. But he has no alternative to going elbows up: There’s no way to satisfy Trump’s demands."

@evdelen @chu

There are economic arguments for every horrible economic policy. We get to be the ones to judge them.

Carney's record so far shows he's a smart economist with neoliberal vulture chaos capitalism.

Right off the bat, he is free to show he will be different. Already fucking the capital gains tax?

Strike 1.

@evdelen @chu

Yeah, he has no political record

We can't give him 3-9 years to show us, though, that as an ideological economist (we all are, though some claim to be neutral), he won't do what he willingly did for his last employers.

If he didn't believe in his economic posture, he wouldn't have done those jobs.

Liberals campaign from the left and govern from the right. For generations.

@gwynnion

Right?

Liberalism always loses to fascism, because fascism is based on stoking fear & hatred & blame & ignorance.

Liberalism fails the tolerance paradox & somehow is ok with lies like this crime nonsense, attached.

Our job in the c/a/n/a/d/a project is to end #fptp http://fairvote.ca go fully #elbowsup, convince the 50% of those voting #neverpoilievre that their nazis are losers.

If a bar lets in nazis, it's a nazi bar.

@evdelen @chu

He surrrrrre loves to sell off public assets!

And yes, he is an intense late stage pariah capitalist, as well as being an accomplished economist. Yes he was doing his job. Yes his economic ideology is bad. All can be true.

Sell off mentality; glad he doesn't have a majority:

Elbows Up Canada! The MAGA threat is internal also.

@cbcnews @calgary-cbcnews When will Alberta kick #ABDanielleSmith out? Are Albertans that confused about the world, about CANADA? Talk to us Alberta. Your premier is not talking to CANADA. She’s espousing US and trumpian behavior. Is that really what you want? To no longer be a part of Canada? #ElbowsUp. https://youtu.be/PAhBeFTrGao

@PhotographyElf

Yeah we haven't had a leftist party since Mulcair took socialist out of the NDP constitution

The whole pendulum moved right

The BC Ecosocialist party started up a while ago, it fizzled before an election, when the leader...turned out to be a fucking #terf.

@mapache_tico calls it as she sees it, shoots from the hip!

@farleftantifawarrior

punching nazis is good to scare fascists, but in less acute crisis times, mutual aid and building the social safety net creates systemic peace and calm and fights the compulsion to fuck over your neighbour.

@farleftantifawarrior

i hear you but i totally disagree.

many people are selfish. many have no empathy.

most are afraid, and government and media try to make everyone afraid, like this fucking shitshow of a postcard i got in the mail last week.

fear forces people to be self-interested in political action.
