Carney is very obviously the lesser of two evils this election but I don’t understand why Canadians are glorifying this guy. We don’t have to glorify him just because he’s better than PP and we are allowed (and should be encouraged) to say that.
At the end of the day he’s a fiscal neo-lib who maintains the status quos but with socially approachable politics (as another commenter mentioned). Nothing is changing and we’ll still miss environmental targets and additional, meaningful promises (remember the libs promised clean drinking water on all reservations??).
Just like the promise not to arm Israel, which the CURRENT government (including Carney) are actively breaking and not addressing. Article: https://www.readthemaple.com/the-liberals-are-dodging-questions-about-a-new-israeli-arms-contract
I can see from the link you posted (Indigo) that you do not avoid brands that support Israel or are listed on BDS materials, but Canadians (still!) deserve better and can do better. Not just better for the environment, but for social services, and at minimum, maybe we can stop supporting the bombing of Palestinian children, schools, and basic infrastructure.
And yet, even a bar this low has been tripped over by the Liberals.
Is Israel the question or topic here? And if it is was how did punishing Harris work out for the Palestinians. To punish Harris they elected a guy who cheers the bombings and wants more of it.
Life might not be fair but Some times the lesser of 2 evils is the best you get.
Just like I said in my other comment, Carney is very obviously the lesser of two evils, but we can all be a lot more objective and realistic about him and his policies. Just like Trudeau didn’t revolutionize the Libera party, I don’t think Carney will either. Again, PP is just abhorrent.
Why not be like america and plow your whole country into the ocean because Biden and Harris didn't end 60 years of middle east foreign policy?
We are all having fun on this side of the border.
Clearly you've read his book🙄
