Carney is, in fact, running around Donald Trump like a puppy dog runs around its mother.

He has given Trump everything he wanted on the border, spending hundreds of millions on better security. He is spending billions more on immediately bringing up our spending on the military to NATO’s two per cent benchmark. He has not yet retaliated with tariffs against Trump’s tariffs.

Happy days are here again.

IF ONLY WE HAD A PIPELINE

Europe is desperate for more oil with oil infrastructure being destroyed in Iran and the Strait of Hormuz too dangerous for oil tankers to travel in a war zone.

If only Canada had a pipeline to Tidewater, N.B., so we could sell Europe all the Canadian oil it would ever need.

Canada is shooting itself in the wallet with oil roadblocks that are resulting in us losing billions of dollars annually.

GREEN FORGOTTEN?

Parliament was prorogued because it wasn’t working because of Green Tech Scandal questions. Nobody seems to be asking the questions now. Does that mean the questionable contractors can keep the money?

HATE ON THE RISE

Antisemitism is rising in Canada. Jewish Canadians face harassment and threats while their identity is wrongly treated as a provocation and their trauma is questioned. Institutions claim neutrality, but end up enabling hate. Police tolerate hostility in the name of protest.

History shows us where this leads. The warning signs are clear. We cannot say we did not know, only that we chose to look away and remain silent.

TIME FOR A REPUBLIC

I strongly support Canada becoming a republic and ending recognition of the Governor General, Charles and Camilla and William and Kate. Forget the King. Forget the monarchy.

I’d rather have Donald Trump than Charles. And U.S. liquor should be back on the shelves and the misguided handgun legislation should be repealed.
