There’s a lot of conservative speculation about Mark Carney running for a seat in parliament in Canada.

What a load of horse pucky and twisted criticism of PMJT!

Carney has partnered with Mariana Mazzucato. He’s not running for MP federal office in Canada.
A quick scan of events they have both attended demonstrates clearly Carney has his eyes on a much bigger prize than being an MP in Canada. He’s helping reform global sustainability efforts of several nations.

Mazzucato & Carney have even written complimentary books.

I have no idea what conservatives are doing by playing up the Canadian political aspirations of Mark Carney to the public.

Trying to discredit him on the world stage because he’s a Canadian Liberal? 🤷🏻‍♀️
He’s much more than a Canadian Liberal. He has his finger on the pulse of global financing of climate action. And is working to advance the Green New Deal.

I can’t see him putting that objective aside for a chance to be a Canadian MP. Maybe Finance Minister. Or even PM.

This video is a must watch for the informed citizen who is feeling overwhelmed and hopeless.

There is always hope. There have been situations that were decidedly much worse that progressives have overcome. Slavery & robber barons were both much worse than current circumstances.
Knowing history provides you with perspective and the information that overwhelming circumstances can be overcome. History is hope.

But many focus on the difficulties of our immediate circumstances without the benefit of the historical context. Few of us are “big picture” focus.
This creates despair and demoralization.

But if you have a familiarity with human history and the eternal struggle for political agency, it’s easy to discern that this is a setback, but it doesn’t have to define perpetuity. We are in control of that dynamic.

Hellooo! People!

What happened Monday? Carpay got caught spying on a Manitoba Chief Justice presiding over a case Carpay was involved in representing.

Harper is telling AB UCP caucus to shut their damn mouths about anything remotely connecting them to Carpay and JCCF.
Except it’s a direct link between Harper and Ted Morton and between Kenney and Carpay.

Long long history between the four men. Going back decades.

Meaning Harper and Kenney and therefore UCP are implicated in this behaviour.
Were the UCP directly involved? Have they received surveillance reports about other public figures who have been followed?

We don’t know.

But we do know it’s doubtful that the tension between Kenney and Carpay was ever real.

With the list of Board members partially revealed, it’s a direct link to UCP and Harper and Kenney.

So how much is the current covid constitutional battle in Alberta a ruse?
Grace Life & Fairview Baptist churches, and Artur Pawlowski just seem a little more preplanned since infractions of covid mandates went unchallenged for so long (like a full year). Then all of a sudden, a harsh crackdown.
Providing the perfect set up for a constitutional challenge.

Ted Morton is a former AB Progressive Conservative that was also close to Harper. In fact he co-authored the “Firewall Letter” with Harper, Tom Flanagan, Rainer Knopff, Andrew Crooks, and

So I took a peek at Dominionist Twitter.

Of course they’re defending John Carpay and his interference with the private affairs of the Chief Justice by having him followed by a Private Investigator.

They consider it a right to surveil anyone.
Seems there’s a fair amount of support. Whatever removes legitimate authority and replaces it with personal liberty decides on an individual basis is the current theme. Ditto in regards to vaccines and passports.
Don’t pay attention to the overt threat of violence if people who value “liberty” don’t get their way.

Bernier’s comments make it clear. This wasn’t an oops. It’s a strategy of intimidation.

I’d like people to see this article.

Over two years ago it was published. But it speaks to the current political environment in Canada.

What possesses an indigenous woman to attempt to destroy reconciliation?
Greed. It’s always greed.

Indigenous people are no less susceptible to greed than any other cultural group. To believe otherwise is racist and condescending.

In Canada, most people know of two distinct indigenous groups. First Nations and Inuit.
Many assume Métis are part of First Nation’s communities.

But we aren’t. Métis are a distinct indigenous ethnic group completely separate from First Nations.

The easiest way to describe the differences between FN & Métis is to compare them to modern day Kurds.

Spoiler; I’m also from Edmonton, but have never been to Stampede.

But stampede has been around for a long time. However, it’s purpose has evolved over time.
The Calgary Stampede started off as an annual trade and information fair exhibiting the region’s innovations and progress. It was meant to attract Eastern Canadian farmers and ranchers to Alberta. A sparsely populated region in Western Canada that remained a territory.
An annual display of the Eurocentric “civilizing” of the Wild West.

And a call for Canadians to move west to assist in “civilizing” & settling the region.

Remember treaty 7 had been signed in 1877. Populating the region was paramount to maintaining control of land title.
