Good! I'd much rather have governments U-turn on bad policy that stubbornly cling to it in the fact of mounting evidence of harm.

So he's just acknowledging it's a gamble with $50+ billion of taxpayer money? This is supposed to be *reassuring*?

Yes but sometimes you have to "pay to play" to make sure we're locked into a sector that will ensure Canada reaps the economic benefits of *checks notes* consuming taxpayer subsidies in perpetuity.

Lib strategists: Unfortunately, the polling suggests we're suffering from a bit of, well, overexposure. Trudeau: Hmm. What if I launched an aggressive campaign to push back? Maximum saturation! To get the message out, 24/7! Lib strategists:
I'm glad he's open about this! People who want a social activist as prime minister deserve to know - and so do people who don't.
"Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Ontario Premier Doug Ford don’t see the Bombardier trainwreck as a cautionary tale. They see it as a blueprint, to be repeated on an even bigger scale."
By comparison, it took Bombardier half a century to rack up ~$4 billion in direct subsidies.
By comparison, it took Bombardier half a century to rack up ~$4 billion in direct subsidies.
And the more money they spend, the more vital it becomes to go on spending. It wouldn’t do, after all, to shell out al those tens of billions “saving jobs”, only to lose the jobs in the end. This is what we win by subsidizing autos, the right to go on subsidizing. In perpetuity.
At least, that’s the initial charge. But it won’t end there. Once those workers are in the auto sector, they essentially become hostages. Because God Has Decreed that Ontario must be in autos, govts will pay anything to keep them there..
About $5 million per job. Note: these are not jobs created, but jobs *transferred* from other firms and industries (see: opportunity costs). So we’re paying $5 million per just to shift jobs from one sector to another.

Most interesting conversations in Ottawa right now should be in NDP caucus. Have opportunity to use leverage they have to political (rather than policy) advantage. Getter a bigger role in Govt (even cabinet seats), or trigger showdown for progressive vote in election they…
I think he's opted to sit the Trudeau era out. If there was any chance he wanted to associate himself with the incumbent regime, that ship sailed when he came out as critical of the budget.

Also: $5 billion in subsidies to add 1000 jobs = $5 million taxpayer subsidy per job. Yes, it's as insane as it sounds.

"The two plants are expected to create 1,000 jobs on top of retaining the existing 4,200 jobs at the assembly plant." Note how far the yardsticks have moved. Subsidies used to be justified on the basis of creating new jobs. Now we pay them to "retain" jobs, like a ransom fee.

$5 billion taken from Canadian taxpayers going to Honda. Trudeau wants the rich to pay more. How about making rich multinational corporations pay for their own factories? Ford likes to talk about sticking up for the little guy. You think Honda is one of the little guys?

Residences should be out of bounds. Always. No matter which politician. This being pro-Hamas types though, I expect there will be no consequences.
This is disgusting. Shouldn’t be tolerated. Not only are the “protesters” outside the home of Trudeau’s Justice Minister Arif Virani, they appear to be on his property.

First they wasted $40 billion on the #KXL and now another $40 billion on EV subsidies. $80 BILLION folks. Let that sink in. What’s the ROI on this?
Recap of EV plants subsidies, Canada: VW - $16.3B Stellantis - $15B Northvolt - $4.24B Ford - $1.288B Honda - $5B Total subsidies value: $41.828B Total investment value by these companies: $46B Canada (tax payers) will be subsidizing EV/battery manufacturing for decades.

Socialists aren’t driven by envy of the “more successful.” We are socialists because we want workers to have what’s rightfully theirs — and we know a world with less greed and envy, and where everyone has what they need, is possible. jacobin.com/2023/04/social…

"free speech" in scare quotes.

I have been reliably informed by many correspondents that I have erred. In fact, I am reassured, the protest they liked was totally fine and the one they dislike is all bad. Ooops!
When I went to Ottawa during the convoy, I tried to convey that most of the people there were harmless. Well-meaning. Maybe wrong, but not bad. And that within those people, there was a harder, nastier, dangerous element. EXACT SAME THING with protests today.
"Characterising a child as “being transgender” is harmful as it forecloses the situation and also implies that this is a unitary condition for which there is unitary “treatment”. It is much more helpful to use a description: that the child suffers from... #CassReview 1/2

And the more money they spend, the more vital it becomes to go on spending. It wouldn’t do, after all, to shell out al those tens of billions “saving jobs”, only to lose the jobs in the end. This is what we win by subsidizing autos, the right to go on subsidizing. In perpetuity.
At least, that’s the initial charge. But it won’t end there. Once those workers are in the auto sector, they essentially become hostages. Because God Has Decreed that Ontario must be in autos, govts will pay anything to keep them there..
About $5 million per job. Note: these are not jobs created, but jobs *transferred* from other firms and industries (see: opportunity costs). So we’re paying $5 million per just to shift jobs from one sector to another.
Fed #EV subsidies up to $52B, triple the annual GDP of the entire Canadian auto industry, though @JustinTrudeau won't discuss cost of aid per job: "How much is the gov't paying for each?" blacklocks.ca/wont-detail-su… #cdnpoli @AdrianGhobrial
LPC and JT are smart and ruthless. Between this budget and Oct ‘25 they could get back on track or could also have new leader. Chance NDP has right now to deny LPC the opportunity to get mojo back won’t come again until this fall. By then it could be too late. 3/n
Starts with understanding that NDP’s biggest rival is LPC, not CPC. Layton got this. There’s no route to gov’t for NDP unless they leap over LPC (like 2011). If NDP is serious about eventually governing Canada, LPC is now at its most vulnerable. Why give them time to recover? 2/n
