  1. if he was serious about cost of living, he’d build-baby-build. housing crisis is issue #1 in canada. it’s also issue #2 and issue #3

    if everyone else is fine letting the world burn why should we kneecap ourselves

    I don’t support it in theory because even consumers should pay for the costs of the negative externatilities they inflict upon the environment, but this is chipping away at a key pillar of the CPC’s campaign while keeping the industry side of it alive.

    Carney’s platform seems to be very forward-thinking, even from what little I read of his book that focus seems pretty clear, so if he wins I hope he can find a way to implement it in a way that doesn’t hurt the perception of his ideas.

    Based AF. Charging average people for fighting climate change is bad, actually. It makes the public not want to fight climate change and doesn’t really do much to actually fight climate change.

  5. Electorally, not a bad move as it weakens Poilevre’s stance.

    Policy wise? Absolute cringe and a Fart Farney move.
