Defunding the state and depriving us of the government supports needed in this economic crisis! Carney's banking career is rearing its ugly head.
Last week, @policyalternatives.ca put together an urgent call for Canada to tax the profits that the oil and gas industry is making off the war in Iran. Yesterday, the best Carney could do was removing tax on average people, further defunding the state.

Well, it turns out I have #COVID not a cold. After five years of not having ever had COVID, this is a bit of a surprise. My kid brought it home from school.

We took precautions just in case and I still got it so it’s highly contagious.
