You just know the extent of grocery racketeering in Canada is bad when the guys who allowed Cleveland-Cliffs CEO to buy Stelco because he couldn't afford the competition from Stelco are saying it's time for a windfall tax.

This is not a serious leader of a sovereign nation.

This is a lacky to oligarchs, or an oligarch setting up his retirement.
Mark Carney says he doesn’t use generative AI as much as he’d like, but that he’s brought in a Google executive to “transform government” and enable more AI use.

Basically, the answer of someone completely bought in on the fantasy of AI who refuses to recognize that isn’t reflected in reality.

The American CEO who bought Stelco is openly admitting that he purchased the company to sabotage it.

This is why the Liberals should have never approved Stelco's sale in the first place. When you give away ownership of a critical industry like steel, your economy is forever under another's thumb.
Cleveland-Cliffs CEO: I bought Stelco because I could not afford anymore having Stelco flooding the market here in the United States to the detriment of my own company.

David Cochrane: Am I understanding you correctly there? It was a defensive acquisition?

Centrist "progressives" telling me this is the system we have so we have to vote strategically.
Counterpoint, this is the system you support so you have to accept the terrible outcomes that come with it.
Expecting voters to support your party indefinitely is totally unrealistic.

If you want to know why I'm always suspicious of "strategic voting" campaigns this is why.

This graphic making the rounds makes absolutely no mention that the clear "strategic vote" in two key ridings is Green.

These campaigns are partisan/establishment operations.

They will just end up paying more for less in the private market for it.
