What if…and this is wild here… What if…the carbon taxes went towards building out the infrastructure to decarbonize. You know, like electric charging stations from east to west, solarification of rooftops and parking lots, expansion of public transportation… Crazy, I know…

Prime Minister @MarkJCarney has never, it seems, encountered an environmental protection measure that he didn't want to dilute, gut, quash, or eliminate. thestar.com/politics/politic…

AOC is blowing her career over this. In essence, she is putting her career over what Americans are demanding. She works for us. @AOC

Massive cuts at Parks Canada. Meanwhile, surviving staff will have to deal with big demand since Carney renewed the pass to make these Parks free!! Such a classic CEO-style move to think workers will just ~figure it out~ as you actively make their job WAY harder to save a buck

I mean we all know that Piers Morgan is a moron, but if you ever had any doubt, watch his interview with Naomi Klein. Good grief he's an idiot.

Corporate efficiency is fucking incredible. You fire half the workforce, make the remaining employees do three jobs, replace customer service with a chatbot that doesn't work, raise prices 20%, and give the CEO a $15 million bonus for improving productivity.

BREAKING: Financial analysts call for a bailout as the AI bubble begins to pop. Just last year, healthcare and food assistance were cut to give tech corporations and billionaires tax breaks. More programs and services are likely to be cut if a bailout drains further revenue.

Put an Austrian economist and a Neoclassical economist in a room with a guy who just got laid off, and I have no doubt that within an hour he'll have two theories about why he wanted more fucking leisure time.

We were warned for decades that communism meant owning nothing. Yet under subscription-based capitalism, many people now rent what they once bought, and lose access whenever a company decides to discontinue it.

I can’t emphasize enough that tech bros with seemingly little to no understanding of humans and their behavior have not and cannot “predict” our future. I can tell you, it is not going to go the way any of them are saying. Are they screwing everything up disastrously? Yes. Will we need skills after that point? Absolutely and completely. Keep your children and teenagers engaged and educated. They will absolutely still need it. Remember, they will outlive these guys.

I got blocked by National Post columnist, Tristin Hopper for pointing out that his economic beliefs cause homelessness by making people unemployed to fight inflation. Conservatives demonize the homeless to run cover for their economic ideas that create the unhoused.

“Canadian” company. It operates in Canada. They just aren’t the same thing in terms of economic value and spillovers. Canadians are smart. We need to start disaggregating these allocations and not framing or dressing up foreign subsidiaries as if they are domestic firms.

A portable music playing device that did nothing but play music, that you only had to pay for once, that worked perfectly with or without wifi, that was an unambiguous upgrade over what came before it with no drawbacks, that never ever made you listen to commercials between songs

By the next election, Poilievre will have been in parliament for *a quarter century* and will have accomplished absolutely nothing except dividing Canadians and fomenting anger with lies & disinfo. Not one tangible, good thing for the country he’s sucked the teat of for 25 years.

It actually IS the role of government to provide for you. Living in a society is a trade off of relinquishing some of your personal sovereignty for stability and material comfort. If the government doesn't provide you with ANYTHING you're just being oppressed
