Glad the NDP will vote against the Throne Speech Carney is a conservative, his Throne Speech has nothing for labour except cuts, and he has done nothing to find common ground with the NDP Perhaps Carney doesn’t get he’s not a corporate boss anymore and needs to find partners

Formerly Trump-loving Premier Ford wants retaliation for steel tariffs now, the formerly Trump-hating PM Carney is saying in the fullness of time The industry, both owners and labour are saying retaliate now, BTW usw.ca/us-tariffs-dou…

Carney chose to exclude all these actions from his Throne Speech, so how can he think a labour party will support a government that does nothing for labour?

Bill 6 threatens people sleeping in parks with fines of up to $10,000 or jail. This is inhumane, expensive and futile. People need housing, not jail time. I will continue to push for supportive and affordable housing as the real solutions that prove we can end homelessness.

Carney is holding secret trade talks with Trump. How elbows up. Nice of him to mention. Guess that charter-busting boarder bill was part of it. Assume Ford’s Bill 5 also, as it just came out of the blue Who is being given our critical minerals?
