I'm watching the cabinet swearing in, and I'm just so relieved that we're watching Carney's cabinet and not an anti woke one from Poilievre. #cdnpoli - ThreadSky

I just wish the news would stop treating PP with as much respect as they are.
He lost the huge lead, lost his own seat, and they keep running to him for his opinions. SMDH

I was really hoping losing such a big lead would trigger some self reflection of the party, but nope. It really isn't healthy for our county to have one party full of extremists, conspiracy theorists, and those willing to coddle them.

Relief is understandable — and I concur. Now I have energy in abundance for support of this government. I'll just Keep Calm and Carney On…

Or the Fox News Host/billionaire incompetents from the US.

This cabinet seems pretty right wing.

Minister of AI but no Minister of Labour, Disabilities, etc.

Corporate exec as sec of state for labour, the list goes on.

erynnwatson.bsky.social•36 days ago

It's definitely more right than Trudeau's but I expected that. Carney isn't a progressive. He's left of center. The priorities he ran on were mostly about trade and the economy, and the cabinet reflects that. However, he still understands climate change and won't be creating culture war battles.

I just wonder what meaningful differences to peoples' lives we will see under this (centre-right at best) government.

and how different it will be from a hypothetical PP government besides all the anti-woke bullshit. Seems like lipstick on a pig.

His plan for building affordable homes alone will make a huge difference.

mapleleafsfan.bsky.social•36 days ago

What does his plan consist of other than funelling money to housing developers?

erynnwatson.bsky.social•36 days ago

If he is able to build the number affordable homes he says he wants, then it helps those who need housing and creates a lot of job's in construction. I'm not sure where you got the information he's funneling it to developers. As far as I know, we don't have the details yet.

Congrats to you, too. Your election also kept your right wing out of power. 👊

I know exactly how you feel. Canadians must forever stand on guard to protect their country and citizens.

As a traumatized American I am full of envy.

Happy and proud, but jealous

Glad we could at least be a bad example to avoid.

Hoping we can pull up before we hit the rocks.

That little bounty rooster of a band is strutting around like he wants. He shouldn’t even be at at the press conference.

We in the United (ha!) States are watching with such longing it brings us to tears.

mimielisabeth.bsky.social•36 days ago

Me too! Such a relief!

viva-lavida.bsky.social•35 days ago

I hear you, sister.
If PP was elected, I would be on a plane to El Salvadoran jail by now.
But he wasn't, we won!
PP is unemployed now. Thank you, Ottawa and ✌️
