    Canada is being pressured by the failed US administration to discard its zero emissions mandate in order to avoid punishing tariffs.

      Watch Mark Carney sell out Canada again. He is going to make inequality worse and people will be angry enough to vote for the fascist Pierre Poilievre in 2028.

        Doug Ford is a US agent, gaslighting us into US subservience and destruction of Canadian auto sector. “Fortress Can Am” is treason, and has no “Am” partner/supporter.

        Future is EVs. Ontario/Canada can either decide to support more USMCA compliant auto manufacturing or threaten nationalization of US subsidiaries that don’t invest more, or cut investment.

        Development of rare earths, lithium, other metals in Canada is possible through Chinese investment. Investment in processing plants where Canadian companies naturally get all of the supply they can sell more affordably than through US reliance. Modern auto plants use giga presses for outer body. Motor and battery manufacturing also highly automated. Chinese investment should include manufacturing of automation in Canada for Canadian and international markets.

        Article talks about affordable EVs. These can be made in NA and Canada especially through Chinese technology and our cheap access to materials. Just the motors and batteries. GM equinox is a good value car. Could be made at same price in Canada as in MX, with cheaper access to materials/components.

        When Do-FF(Fossil Fuel or Fat Fuck)-Fo supports increasing dependence on Alberta and FFs, he supports energy insecurity. Solar and EVs, reduce our refining demand. Another area to cooperate with Chinese investment.

          Our current political climate of the Carney Liberals, PP, and weakened NDP reminds me a lot of the US two-party system that only benefits the uber wealthy. I really hope we don’t continue down that path.

          I don’t see the Liberals changing course, unfortunately. (The Carney Liberals feel a lot different from the Trudeau Liberals.) I think corporate-owned news and social media keep pushing people to the right. So, the Liberals can make a strategic argument to right-shift to try and steal Conservative voters (and appease corporate donors) while taking most left-of-centre voters for granted as ABC (anyone but Conservative) voters who’ll still vote for them as the party drifts right. Their future slogan: at least we’re not the CPC.

          It seems like it’s up to the NDP to save Canadian politics from becoming a big-money scheme like south of the border and give working class people a voice in parliament again. My gosh do I wish they find a Zohran Mamdani or someone who can reinvigorate the party.

          I’ve seen this go far enough after 6 months or so of Carney. I hope he redeems himself in the eyes of working class Canadians, but I am not betting on it. I think this is closer to how he’ll govern (like a US moderate Democrat) than the “elbows up” nationalism he advertised himself as.

            Please use paragraphs, that’s too big a solid chunk to dive into reading

                I could see Carney have several long term plans that involve appearing to appease US admin. Unfortunately, I doubt those long term plans are good for Canadians, so much as donors.
