Immediately upon taking office, Carney cancelled a scheduled increase in capital gains taxes, scrapped the digital services tax, and introduced other tax policies benefiting the wealthy. The government’s review of the Canada Labour Code looks set to weaken union rights and possibly further impede workers’ right to strike.
Carney has added tens of billions of dollars in new military spending. His Defence Industrial Strategy is a half-trillion-dollar plan to further militarize the economy. Two weeks ago, Defence Minister David McGuinty met with an undisclosed group of war industry leaders and financial firms. While his department refused The Maple’s request for details of the discussion, a government release suggests the CEO summit was among the topics discussed. The September summit is seen by the government as part of its effort to further marry the arms industry with big finance.
Canada should go back to owning their shit. I thought that’s what we were doing. I guess “business” and “money” trump everything, especially peaceful progress into the future.
I fucking hate this guy. Fucking lying scumbag traitor.
Campaigned with left-wing ideas and messages. Rules entirely on the right. People saying he’s worst that the worst we’ve had so far, Stephen Harper. that’s saying something.
“Elbows up” he said. Now he’s selling Canada wholesale to the U.S.'s corporate interests close to Trump. Fucking bastard.
Carney was the last minute swerve from Polievre, he never had much promise except as a stopgap to problems Carney is paradoxically unable and unwilling to actually address.
