He didn't speak to the media before the election, either.

If he decides to take questions, as someone who wants to be an MP from Alberta, he should get asked about the seperatists in his riding, the province lowering barriers for seperatists and how he sees what our provincial govt is doing to be part of Canada or not.
If I recall correctly a few of those clowns who went to the States to ask to join are from his potential riding.

They need someone with a name like Perry Polevaulter to run for the Conversative Party of Canada.

Lutnick just doing what he’s told and regurgitating the usual MAGA talking points because he’s in front of the cameras. Wasn’t it Ford who mentioned that Lutnick behaved completely differently in private and over the phone?

I get why Carney is going down there. You have to at least attempt to work something out with these dips***s, or at least get them to agree to renegotiate the Canada/US/Mexico deal. But the whole thing does seem kind of pointless. How do you possibly negotiate with these morons when we know that they’ll just break that agreement any time Trump feels like it?

And it seems that we’re not the only country banging our heads against the wall. Japan, the UK, and the EU have all expressed similar frustrations over the last few weeks in trying to talk to these assclowns. All because no one seems to know what Trump wants or what the f*** he’s doing. His own cabinet doesn’t even have a clue.

That's because all he wants is to stay out of jail, grift as much as possible, and have all the attention.

But Americans have put him in the position with all this power, so he just messes around with it. You can't figure out what he might want going forward, because he doesn't really have any plan beyond that.

While I agree that it’s a pointless exercise there’s nothing un-democratic about it, nor is it vandalism.

The reason it is allowed is quite simple, it’s within the rules. And it had no real impact on the actual result of the election in PP’s former riding.

It's a form of peaceful protesting, which is our right in a democracy.

"Aaron Aardvark"
someone with a name like the original MP
"Danielle Smith"

It can only help the most widely known name.

Flittering around the interwebs today looking up reaction to see how Carney did under the microscope against Trump. Seems he won a fair bit of praise for his work today. Dealing with Trump is work, no bones about it.
