Carney’s Digital Tax Debacle: How Ottawa Triggered a Trade Fallout with Washington

Trump walked away from trade talks over Canada’s retroactive digital services tax—enacted by Mark Carney’s Liberal government despite clear warnings from experts, businesses, and industry leaders.

"This entire debacle is proof that the Liberal Party is utterly incapable of negotiating with strength.

​II. The Death of the Trades & The "Build Canada" Scam
​As someone who has worked in the trades for over 15 years, I see the "holes" in your Build Communities Strong Fund. You talk about "supercharging" homebuilding, but your policies are crushing the people who actually do the work:
​The Productivity Trap: You demand 500,000 homes a year while your "hidden" fuel taxes and inflation make it impossible for ...

Someone finally put the truth in print in a Red Deer obituary. She was 71.
" Six years ago. Val’s health began to be compromised. She battled every day to reverse the vaccine injury after long battle in excruciating pain."
