Revolut°Permanente🚩 Élections canadiennes : une campagne à l'ombre de Trump: Justin Trudeau ayant démissionné en janvier, il a été remplacé temporairement par le banquier Mark Carney qui affrontera le conservateur Pierre Poilièvre lors des élections fédérales du 28 avril.International / Canada / Donald Trump / Élections / Guerre commerciale revolutionpermanente.fr/Electi 🚩RP #ÉlectionsCanadiennes #JustinTrudeau #MarkCarney #PierrePoilièvre #DonaldTrump

Listening to the podcast from #TheLineCa this morning, they've already hit two strong points:
* Why would Pres. Trump prefer #MarkCarney to #PierrePoilievre? Because heretics are hated more than infidels.
* What's the simplest explanation for why Pres. Trump treated Mr. Carney more respectfully over the phone than he treated PM Trudeau? Personal dislike for #JustinTrudeau, or at least pleasure in antagonising him.

Here are the three themes the #Conservatives need to play upon to win:

* #PierrePoilievre is pro-Canada/anti-Trump
* Canada is weak because of the #LostDecade of no per capita economic growth the Liberals delivered us
* #MarkCarney and #JustinTrudeau are linked (the #CPC should be delighted if they can get Mr. Carney to disavow his predecessor)

All those points are basically true, so they will sink in as the campaign proceeds. Will there be enough time though?

Praise for a law recently brought in by the #JustinTrudeau ministry from Fr. #RaymondJDeSouza:

"In December — thankfully just weeks ahead of Parliament’s prorogation — royal assent was given to the Miscarriage of Justice Review Commission Act, known as David and Joyce Milgaard’s Law. It is named after one of Canada’s most famous wrongfully convicted murderers and the mother who never ceased to seek justice for her son."

Hard to believe the Conservatives managed to kill the #CarbonTax, without even winning an election first.

It's a shame though: decreasing carbon emissions ought to be one of the goals of the Canadian government, and raising the price of emissions was an economically efficient way to do so. Will either the #CPC or the #Liberals propose a new policy that will work and at a reasonable cost per tonne?

I wonder how #JustinTrudeau feels about his own party ending this key policy?
