Carney Built A Strong Fantasy - NOT A Strong Economy
from The Maple Conservative Girl
Mark Carney wants you to believe he's standing up for Canada. Elbows up, lecturing the Trump administration, spending billions on "investments." But strip away the theatre and look at the numbers, and a very different picture shows up. One where subsidies don't pay for themselves, a trade war with our biggest customer is being fought for approval ratings, and a Prime Minister who lectures Americans about "unelected officials" is quietly stacking his own government with them. In this episode, I break down: The $4.7 billion VIA Rail subsidy that Carney's own numbers say only generates $1.6 billion in return. Trump's warning to Carney, and why "elbows up" nationalism might be popular now but could be Canada's biggest mistake in a generation The reporter who asked a US admiral about a Canadian invasion and why that question was designed to scare you, not inform you Carney's selective outrage over "unelected" officials while hiring an unelected American COO and appointing sitting MPs straight to the Senate Why Danielle Smith is quietly getting more done with Washington than Carney is with all his theatre This isn't strength. It's a performance and Canadians are the ones paying for it. Yet they're CHEERING! If you think this government's priorities are backwards, hit subscribe and share this episode. Let me know in the comments: is Carney's approach protecting Canada, or setting it up for the fall? #CanadianPolitics #MarkCarney #Canada #ConservativePodcast #CanadaPolitics #trumpcanada https://x.com/CPAC_TV/status/2095535466309173501 https://x.com/gmforbes35/status/2095544678024126709 https://www.canada.ca/en/transport-canada/news/2026/07/passenger-rail-locomotive-assembly-returns-to-canada-through-a-195-billion-government-of-canada-investment.html https://www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/article-toronto-quebec-high-speed-rail-cost-alto/ https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/canada-rolls-back-ev-regulations-boosts-incentives-2026-02-05/ https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/article/carney-government-to-extend-gas-tax-holiday-into-the-new-year-sources-say/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwNKgr3gdGw https://www.fraserinstitute.org/commentary/carney-practises-illusion-ev-mandate-repeal https://www.junonews.com/p/liberals-extend-gas-tax-holiday-following https://www.conservative.ca/conservatives-call-on-carney-liberals-to-cancel-their-gas-tax-hike/?utm_content=pierre/ https://x.com/mario4thenorth/status/2095546046076055830 https://x.com/Tablesalt13/status/2095232431771050300 https://x.com/Tablesalt13/status/2095232431771050300 https://x.com/sarobertson_/status/2095523441147306000 https://x.com/glen_mcgregor/status/2077081523249930393/photo/1 https://www.ipolitics.ca/2026/07/07/conservatives-lose-another-mp-as-carney-appoints-martel-to-the-senate/ https://x.com/ABDanielleSmith/status/2095179132347027700
