For a more comprehensive view of the candidates, the CBC did an article today here:

Looks like May won't be voting for another Carney budget!
Prediction: This government will fall before Canada Day 2026.
Carney will become one of the shortest-term Prime Ministers in Canadian history.

Trudeau was criticized by some who thought his policies somehow acquiesced to every demand by any First Nation. But really what his Ministry did first was show that there was a way of communication of respect and dialogue.
Clearly the new Federal Minister of Energy has some learning to do if he wants the Federal government to have any chance at a relationship that results in them achieving any of the government's goals.

Steven Guilbeault lays out the truth. Canada will not reach its climate targets.
““[Carney] thinks we’ll be able to do this with the market, with private investment. Of course, we have to do that, but I also think we need to have regulations in place to ensure that we achieve the goals we have set for ourselves. And by abandoning many of these measures, that becomes impossible.
“I mean, if we are honest with Canadians, we can no longer achieve our targets for 2030 with the announcements that have been made recently. It’s not possible.””
... he goes on to say Danielle Smith is (effectively) Donald Trump.
"“In my opinion, she is not a reliable partner in this negotiation.””
It is now abundantly clear that the Liberal Party and all Canadians really did lose something when Mark Carney became Prime Minister.

i can't say that a conservative MP being JD Vance's best buddy at Yale fills me with confidence that he would somehow make a substantive positive difference for Canada.
More likely that he is infected with the same deep desire for power and influence.

A Saskatchewan premier using a nautical reference always makes me giggle.
It's too bad that's the only funny thing about Scott Moe and his government's long and destructive grip on power in that province.
