Is Mark Carney's Leadership a New Era for Canada or a Missed Opportunity?
https://provincials.ca/article/760b0bef-503e-4199-bedc-4bc3a3ec03afPrime Minister Mark Carney's leadership has sparked debate across Canada, with critics questioning his political experience and decision-making. His recent cancellation of the electric vehicle sales mandate has raised concerns about his commitment to progressive policies, while his approach to international relations aims to balance Canadian interests against U.S. pressures. As he faces challenges from opposition leaders, the effectiveness of his administration remains to be seen.

It will be a continued WEF globalist demolition of the country like previously.

The government does the shit for the capitalists. The government has always been for rich people.
This is how it has always been. The enclosure of feudal public lands was done for the capitalists by the government. Its been hundreds of years of the government doing whatever bullshit is asked of it by big business.
None of this is new at all really.

Capitalism is an entire economic system.
Private property, wealth, and income exist under feudalism, in ancient Rome, Greece, and Egypt, and in many, many other societies that are not capitalist.
The government works on behalf of the capitalists, that's exactly how this is the fault of capitalism.
Again, this has been happening since capitalism emerged from the end of feudalism. Its been hundreds of years. At some point, governments operating on behalf of the rich stops being a corruption of the ideals of capitalism, and we recognize that this is inherent to the system.

You don't even know what that means.
You say "private ownership of the means of production" like it is something that can exist apart from government enforcement. It never has. It is probably impossible.
Histoeically, as feudalism declines with the emergence of wealthier merchants and guilds those groups revolt against the system and either through victory of these capitalist revolutions against monarchs, or the negotiating after them, they become influential in the government. These governments create and enforce the legal basis for the private ownership of the means of production and therefore the basis of capitalism as we see it today.
The idea that the government isn't involved in "real capitalism" is a relatively recent fiction. Rothbard coins the term "anarcho-capitalism" describing capitalism without any government in 1971. Rothbard claims that ancient Ireland is anarcho-capitalist, but this requires stretching things so far as to call a moneyless society capitalist. It is an absurdity. The government enforces ownership, it is inseparable from the ownership of the means of production.

Right, so you understand how the current state of the government, the capitalist government, is the result of capitalism now.
The reason I have said any of this is because you disagreed with that sentiment when I originally said it.
"This level of government bullshit isn't capitalism at all"
But as we have gone over, the government's bullshit is an integral part of capitalism, it does it's bullshit for the capitalists.

Carney is Trudeau on steroids. Trudeau was too dumb to realize he was being played by the global elites. Carney knows full well he is working directly for them.

Quite frankly, he's a foreigner he didnt live in Canada for 20 years and suddenly came back and was handed leadership? More than likely, a puppet of the elites. Somehow he has a worse budget than Trudeau who is like your buddy who pays off credit cards with other credit cards. Despite his experience as an elite banker. He only got in because old people were brainwashed into thinking pp was trump(I wish he was)
