Okay, how about sending Sophie Grégoire Trudeau to Eurovision? cbc.ca/player/play/video/1.3…

Incorrect. There are dozens of faculty job postings in universities across the country to which white and Asian men are literally not allowed to apply.
As some of us predicted, with Option One in hand, Alberta is going to the back burner while Ottawa focuses on Quebec.
And the EU. 🤷♂️

Young Cdns can already study, work & travel. We already have tons of trade agreements with EU & individual countries. Improve our sovereignty by tying us more closely to a bunch of failing economies & failing societies? C'mon. This is Carney's vanity project for his own future.
In a couple days the Canada-EU Summit will be held in Montreal to move Canada towards an Associate Member...but there are some interesting things happening.
Quebec Premier Paul St-Pierre Plamondon was banned from speaking at the Summit.
France, Germany and other key EU countries are pushing back against Canada's joining the EU as Associate Member. These are our biggest allies.
Mark Carney promotes it as:
> Give young Canadians opportunities to study, work and travel.
> More opportunities for Canadian businesses.
> Canadian researchers will have more depth of opportunities.
And somehow being tied to the EU will make Canada " a more independent, more sovereign nation". How?!
The reality is that Canadian youth and businesses already have access to all these relationships and opportunities with the EU.
So what is this really about??

I imagine my Jewish friends in Toronto feel like a side was chosen with the re-election of Olivia Chow and it wasn't your side. Know that there are still many of us who are on your side & we will continue to speak out. We will continue to support you. I wish we could protect you.
I’m certainly glad I got to see Bilbao a couple of years ago. 😔
How long until we see this mind virus spread to Montreal and Toronto?
Canada’s participation in Eurovision is simply a propaganda ploy to convince gulliable Canadians that becoming an associate member, or whatever euphemism you come up with, of the EU is a good idea.

This is why I side with the CCFR. I'm not a gun owner but I support their cause strictly from a property rights perspective.
The suggestion by @gary_srp that the guns are to be "returned" implies that they belong to the gov't.
And if they can do that for guns, they can do that for anything.
C’mon… Not being an associate member of the EU is NOT holding us back from exporting energy to Europe. Blocked for the conspiracy theory BS.

Justin Trudeau discontinued enforcement of the First Nations Financial Transparency Act. As a result, many bands are not conducting proper audits.
This must be reversed.
**ALL** taxpayer money must be subject to scrutiny, including funding of First Nations.

Just TWO DAYS until Mark Carney's big EU summit in Montreal, and his grand European fantasy is already falling apart.
Germany, France and several other European countries are pushing back against Canada's proposed “associate membership” label.
Meanwhile, Britain is refusing to join Carney's proposed defence bank.
The self-proclaimed international dealmaker seems to be collecting rejection letters faster than actual results.
Canadians deserve a Prime Minister focused on fixing Canada, not chasing his dream of becoming Europe's newest bureaucrat.

CTV is doing the exact same thing
In their recent interview, Frank McKenna is introduced only as “Former Canadian ambassador to the United States.”
No mention that he has been Chair of Brookfield Corporation since 2010 — the same firm where Mark Carney was Chair of Brookfield Asset Management until he ran for Liberal leader
No mention of his long-standing ties to Carney, or that he has repeatedly praised the Prime Minister’s direction
Viewers are left with the impression they’re hearing from a neutral former diplomat, not the current chairman of one of the world’s largest asset managers with deep connections to the PM. No mention that Carney still stands to gain advantageously from two specific Brookfield funds
Selective disclosure isn’t just a CBC problem @omarsachedina
Frank McKenna has been a director of Brookfield since 2006 and has been the Chair of the Board of Directors for Brookfield Corporation (formerly Brookfield Asset Management) since August 2010. He endorsed Carney for Prime Minister, and he might have been instrumental in his interest to run as far back as 2012... but CBC only calls him "former Canadian ambassador to the United States"
CBC's ongoing selective disclosure exposes its biases @brodiefenlon
I have nothing against the Canadian singers.
However I see participation in Eurovision as an unsubtle ploy to support your dream to lock up 🇨🇦 in EU bureaucracy.
You have no mandate to join the EU and I will have nothing to do with it.
Stop wasting time duplicating the province’s processes for project approval.
Get back to cutting your bloated multi year budget, and fixing water mains and potholes.
No no no. Go away!
Our PM has NO mandate to negotiate associate membership, or whatever label, you land on, for Canada.
Canada is not a European country and we do NOT want to be tied to your hot mess.
Exactly this.
Reelecting Chow does not bode well for the Jewish community, and not only in Toronto but across Canada.
