And you know who spent the last 40 years convincing us that politics should be entertainment? For-profit corporate media. That's right—if you work in corporate media, you're the reason this country is collapsing.
You gave us entertainment when what we really needed were leaders.

Currently Canada's non profit airports pay in excess of a half billion dollars to the Federal government in rent every year.
When asked if new investors will continue to pay rent, the Carney government declined to answer

1/ We know what happens when public infrastructure gets privatized: costs go up, quality goes down, and it's everyday people who end up paying for it.
Mark Carney's Investment Summit might be over, but the fight to protect our public goods isn't.

I think holding a fire sale for foreign investors, including Americans, and selling off Canada’s critical infrastructure is a bad idea and inconsistent with shoring up our sovereignty.

Don't be fooled into thinking that a "free market" only exists when corporations get to "self-regulate" and do whatever they want.
And don't be led to think that the government is "intruding" into the market when it crafts laws to protect the public.
The real issue is power — and who has it.

People who are still in contact with reality must get out and vote in large numbers. That must be followed up with every Alberta politician that has worked to make this vote happen being prevented from ever holding power in Alberta again.

So there is in fact a "magic money tree", but it's not for fighting climate change or for public services.

Privatizing airports is a terrible deal for travellers, workers, and the public purse.
Around the world, it has led to higher travel costs, fewer jobs and worse working conditions.

Being apolitical is a political stance. Defending the status quo is a political stance. Refusing to take a side IS TAKING A SIDE. Every time you refuse to take a side, the oppressor wins.
