    I’d rather experts make decisions instead of having a big general vote. The UK fucked themselves in the worst ways possible in a referendum vote because a whole bunch of them hate immigrants. Don’t think Canadians wouldn’t do the same thing. We’d vote for 200 years of isolation over a half decent trade deal just because people don’t like Trump and are willing to harm themselves if slightly inconveniences him.

      “We should defer to our leaders if they want to appease fascists”

      Is this really what you wanna go with?

    I think this piece is fantastic, however there is an approximately 0% chance Carney would commit to this, because he is a sniveling coward who cares infinitely more about the portfolios of his Brookfield and banker pals than about democracy, the rule of law, human rights, or climate.

    I dare you to prove me wrong, Liberals.

      If he lasts that long. This govt could honestly get their fall budget voted down - and if it has the cuts to the civil service that Carney is promising, you have to wonder if he would even hold onto his Ottawa seat.
