Trump is just a front man for the whole show. He doesn’t make any decisions unilaterally, he represents what the oligarchs want.

To be fair, it’s not like Trump admin would have such intricate understanding of how Canadian political system works or even care for that matter.

I’m not ruling out Carney being kidnapped over this

same, it’s pretty obvious they’ve been cooking numbers even during Biden time, and it’s only got worse since

The problem isn’t with education, it’s with the conflation of identifying problems and fashioning solutions. You don’t need education to understand the problems you personally experience, you need it to actually come up with workable solutions. Not only that, but nobody can possibly be an expert in every field. You need experts in each particular domain to come up with viable ways to address the problems, and political commitment to actually seeing them through to the end.

The whole discussion of democracy is meaningless when the means of production are privately owned, because this arrangement takes away from public debate the key question of who governs our common economic life and to what ends?

Genuine democracy must include the power to shape the material conditions of our existence. The nature of labour, the distribution of its fruits, and the purpose for which we can produce are fundamental decisions we make as a society. When these are decided by a capitalist class alone with the absolute authority of private property, then political democracy becomes merely an ornamental competition on secondary issues. Citizens vote to choose politicians, but not regarding the structure of industry or finance, or the necessity for maximum profit which places all social and ecological considerations in a subordinate position. This creates an inherent contradiction where citizens are called equals politically, yet remain subordinates economically.

Any system where there is a private dictatorship over industry is not democracy but a carefully staged charade which legitimises the rule of money through the hollow ritual of elections.

🤣

lol seriously

which exposes the whole thing as a farce

drill baby, drill

That’s right, run along and do your trolling somewhere like reddit where you’re not going to get called out on it.

The biggest threat to Canada comes from disintegration of social stability resulting from the collapsing living standards. The US doesn’t need to invade Canada when they can simply use social divisions to do political capture. It’s the formula the US has already ironed out in Latin America. The best defence against that is ensuring that we have a stable economy that actually serves the interests of people in Canada.

We should be creating crown corps to kick start infrastructure development and manufacturing here. And Liberals are doing the exact opposite of that by creating austerity to feed increased military spending.

welcome to late stage capitalism where everything is financialized

The irony here of course is that the only one spreading misinformation in anger here is you. The article is factually correct and the statements by both parties are a matter of public record. You’re really bad at this.

Aww look at you seething.

Our leadership still thinks that they can just keep sucking up and they’ll be spared. They’re absolutely incapable of adjusting to the new reality that that the US is now cannibalizing its former vassals.

Try and read what you wrote when you’re sober.

I guess Carney is preparing by buying 3.8 billion worth of jets from… the US https://www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/article-canada-us-sale-air-strike-weapons/

The actual bowing down that we’re doing is the refusal to call out an attack on Venezuela and the kidnapping of their president.
