8 months in: Fire central bankers. Demand equity in private businesses. Increase militarization for “national defense”. Armed National Guard patrols. Economic central planning. Weaponized legal inquires against political opponents. Replace legitimate press with sycophantic hacks

“Manitoba is relying more and more on borrowed money to fund an ever-growing list of government commitments. The “social cart” is being pulled by fewer economic horses — and the ones left are being asked to run uphill with less support and more red tape.” winnipegsun.com/opinion/column…

CBC really needs to stop quoting Green party leaders and UBC profs on the economics of oil and gas projects. There are thousands of people more qualified to discuss the business case for BC LNG. They quote two ideological critics and none from industry. cbc.ca/news/canada/br…

The public opinion for this unscientific tanker ban has shifted. Of course we need emergency and oil spill world class response available. But we know how to move oil safely. Pointing to the Exxon Valdez disaster is like pointing to Chernobyl as a reason not to pursue nuclear.

Canada's Research & Development spending (as a % of GDP) has fallen to a 25-year low! This is a scathing indictment of the policy priorities of our leadership. R&D is critical for improvements in productivity growth, and only productivity can emancipate the working class.

The digital services tax and supply management are simply not worth dying on the hill for. If these were the sticking points I am shocked we didn’t concede.

Absolutely shameful. @WabKinew, Fontaine's comments expose a vanity that prioritizes her image over others' needs, especially as Accessibility Minister. Her ignorance of ASL interpreters' role is disqualifying. She has no place in cabinet and should be removed Immediately.

Not a great year for the provincial economy according to new StatsCan data today with net job loss compared to 2024, and negligible real wage growth -- even a dip on a per working-age person basis. Biggest impact: A bad year in finance and insurance.
