Bobby is going after Big Pharma. Isn't that something you wanted to do?

Love from Canada. Mark Carney is not the answer from what I can see. He is way more intelligent than Trudeau is but he is also as misguided.

Bobby has made some terrible moral compromises. By supporting the administration he’s supporting this… https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/12/climate/epa-zeldin-rollbacks-pollution.html

Hope to hear any day. They like to keep us on pins and needles. I pray we don't have to wait until October, however we do need to see some debates. The opposition is expecting an election sooner than later.

As I understand it, Mark Carney was not elected and has never been elected to any office in his life.

Just an fyi - No prime minister is elected in Canada - the party is elected …

Thanks for clarifying. I just wanted to set the record straight because Marianne stated several times that Mark Carney was elected.

I’m curious: Is it typical that the prime minister has never been elected to any office?

The prime minister is appointed to the position of prime minister because his party holds the majority of the elected seats in the house - the prime minister becomes the prime minister because his party has the majority of seats - the prime minister has to become elected with in his geographical riding like any other politician in the country - but the country as a whole does not vote for a prime minister but for the person running in their geographical area which represent one of the political parties … does that help explain?

Our prime minister for the past 9 years (Justin Trudeau) stepped down recently due to his low popularity. Mark Carney was elected by the party but not the people to replace him until the next election is called There will be an election called soon and Canadians will ‘elect or vote in democratically’ a new prime minister. So the new leader of the liberal party, who is Mark Carney, may or may not remain the Prime Minister. Prime ministers are elected in Canada. 🇨🇦 ❤️

Hi Susan - have you ever had a prime ministers name on an election ballot in Canada ? No they aren’t elected per se their party is by acquiring the required number of seats/votes in their geographical area- the party who gains a majority of seats is then elected and whoever is the head of that party becomes the prime minister - so no prime minister has ever been elected - ie their name has never been on a election ballot - so NO - we do not elect a prime minister - we elect a their party and the party picks their leader - the prime minister needs a majority of seats from all over Canada to become prime minister …

The head of the party has to be elected in his own riding but only those in that specific geographical area get to vote them in … not everyone in the country gets to vote on prime minister because everyone has to choose / vote only from the candidates in their specific riding / geographical area … it’s always been like this

Best to let the insults slip by!! Yes, he does mean it but we can't feed him by responding!! However, we also can't do nothing so - time to offer an alternative!! You just mentioned 'economics'! I suggest DOUGHNUT ECONOMICS!! The system has already been created. We just need to spread the word!

Thank you Marianne. The republicans are taking over everybody. It's another coup. And I would think that musk could be arrested for running into Federal Offices, threatening workers and kicking them out. One set of musk's lackeys brought guns and changed the lock after the workers were gone. I would think this is a crime they can be charged with and jailed. Barb Johnson

Canada has been known in the world as peace keepers.

Not all of us but let’s say most of us.

Elon has a medical condition. He has no empathy.

Does he get a pass?

Thank you for talking.
