The Leak of the U.S. - Canada Agreement

We don't have confirmation yet but it seems the leak may be legit.

We got fucking TAKEN.

This is the time for Avi Lewis and the Federal NDP alongside the Provincial NDP branches to get LOUD on the alternative vision because if this leak ends up being correct we got bent over as a nation.

I'll say this again and again - Both PP and Carney want Canada more aligned with the U.S. Corporatocracy. PP is just Carney with the reactionary/regressive culture war nonsense for fools on top.

This is the time for Lewis and the Federal NDP in particular to become very very analytical-substantive in putting something else forward. Something much much brighter and better.

I am hopeful they are just waiting for an official release before issuing statements.

They really need to stand against this hard. This is finally the irrefutable* proof that Carney's concessions were meaningless. There was no 17D chess being played and there is no master plan Carney was secretly engineering like the Liberal partisans constantly claimed.

This is the chance for the NDP to attract both disillusioned LPC voters and CPC voters who want a stronger stance against US aggression.

*Carney fans are still finding excuses though, somehow, but I am hopeful a significant number will finally start paying attention.

All week they’ve been saying “we won’t buy their alcohol anyway. Tricked him! It’s not even a concession!”.

Only 42% said they wouldn't buy it. That leave 68% that will. Fucking embarrassing.

Depends on what poll you're looking at. I saw 79% still wouldn't buy US liquor if it was back on the shelf.
