I think it’s tough for him because he’s in a national debate but he’s only speaking to Quebec voters.

Totally. Polievre is just an angry parrot. Clearly can’t think calmly and rationally

Trump isn't making China great, investment in science and engineering is making China 'great'. If China can build better cars for lower cost, European and American competitors will either have to catch up or fall behind. Trade barriers won't stop them.

To be fair, I think all of the so-called legacy media is struggling to figure out how to deal with the situation where one 'side' is now completely detached from reality and fact, but to say as much is to be accused of 'bias'. Yet facts are facts.

It only hurts them if American importers find alternative, domestic, sources. If not... the ones it hurts are American consumers.
Bravo for backstabbing Vietnam yet again though, America. Y'all look soooooo reliable as partners.

I feel this deeply in my Gen-X bones. And no coincidence that the US began its slide into authoritarianism, isolationism, and propaganda wars in 2001.

Always seemed more than a little funny to me that politicians like Poilievre and Kenney are always *reputed* to have net worths in excess of 10M when they've never had a job in the private sector in their lives. IF true, the media should be asking serious questions about where that wealth came from.

I can’t even listen to his delusional rants. I’m going to be so curious to hear how they came up with these number too. 🙄🙄🤮

Humans cannot survive on Mars. We are hundreds, maybe thousands, of years away from solving the problems inherent with trying to colonize Mars.

The context being that Goebbels was arguing that the state should use the media and propaganda to manipulate public sentiment. America, if this isn't a holy shit moment for you, you're fucked.

Ever notice these far-right folks all have one unifying thing in common: they use their power and influence to funnel public money into their pockets. How does anyone NOT see this??

Not sure who created that but the placement of the arctic circle is wildly wrong.

I don’t think it’s that well thought out. I think he just literally looks at a map and thinks: all that could be mine.
