The new Liberal-Bloc Quebecois coalition just voted down a conservative motion demanding Senate pass farmers’ carbon tax exemption bill C-234, currently stuck in senate hell in a previously mentioned article, to avoid the optics of having a carve out on carbon tax after specifically stating there will be no more carve outs on carbon tax, outside of the carve out that gave preferential tax treatment to Liberal friendly Atlantic Canada. This will continue to put pressure on food prices while the Ontario Federal of Agriculture pleads to get this bill passed to help farmers. To their credit the NDP voted with the conservatives as they also did initially on the original bill to help Canadians.

Trudeau just gave major concessions in an agreement with Google, for Google to agree to give millions to Bell and Rogers, on a bill that gave the Liberals nothing but bad press, which will surely trickle down to the little guys, which the left is cheering and including it as a bad week for PP...
These are just things that impacts Canadians daily which are immaterial to Liberal supporters, but oh boy did you see PP squirm when asked why he prematurely defined a car explosion at a border crossing causing 4 bridges to be closed as terrorism? One that also had posters initially insinuate potential terrorism as a natural reaction on initial reports?
