Sad to see. CNE jobs suck. The middle class and working poor are getting stomped. | ||

https://www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/statements/2025/07/30/statement-prime-minister-carney-canadas-recognition-palestinian-state This intention is predicated on the Palestinian Authority’s commitment to much-needed reforms, including the commitments by Palestinian Authority President Abbas to fundamentally reform its governance, to hold general elections in 2026 in which Hamas can play no part, and to demilitarize the Palestinian state. Canada will increase its efforts in supporting strong, democratic governance in Palestine and the contributions of its people to a more peaceful and hopeful future. it is nice to see Canada with some decent leadership. | ||

https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/canada-gdp-q2-1.7620878 Justin Trudeau fucked the country into the ground. However, Justin is far from the whole problem. The bigger issue is there was no up and coming Mike Harris or Brian Mulroney or Hazel Mccallion or hell.. even a Joe Clark... to oust him from power. I don't see a group of leaders capable of digging Canada out of this mess. Before the first FTA 60% to 65% of the country's exports went to the USA. It rose to over 80%. This is a super dumb strategy if you are going to start disagreeing with the USA on key issues like military spending. EITHER fall in line with most US decisions made on the world stage OR diversify your export options to countries other than the USA. Do not start "standing up to the USA" while also focusing all exports on the USA at the same time. Canada's lazy, short-term focused leadership did this to themselves. | ||

Where would Canada be today had Ken Dryden become leader of the Liberal Party? Michael Ignatieff failed on every level. | ||
