@tantramar @VE2UWY @dyckron It truly is shameful. #ChrystiaFreeland, can we please return cost-appropriate rail / air travel to Canada. It’s cheaper to fly south, across the border than to fly anywhere in Canada. Makes no sense. And having eliminated rail service from coast to coast is also unbelievable. The only way to get to Winnipeg from Montreal is to fly, at a cost of approx $700. Or drive. Come on Canada. 
let’s make transportation work again.
#ChrystiaFreeland → Minister of Transport and Internal Trade
#MarkCarney, fmr central banker-turned-centrist politician, triumphed over #ChrystiaFreeland, paving the way fo him to succeed #Trudeau as #Canada's PM. He is expected to be sworn in early this week.
Carney, 59, whose resume is filled w/decades of experience working at the highest levels of global #finance but has never been elected to public office, faces his 1st economic reckoning as PM–managing Canada's #trade relationship w/an erratic #Trump.

I would say this is an accurate assessment of Chrystia Freeland's attempt to become the leader of the Liberal Party: The inconceivable transformation of Chrystia Freeland - The Hill Times https://archive.ph/rANMH #ChrystiaFreeland #Canada #cdnpoli
Chrystia Freeland, who is aiming to be Canada's prime minister, said she believes U.S. President Donald Trump is threatening to impose tariffs on allies in part to pave the way for tougher policies on China. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/01/29/world/politics/trump-allies-china-canada-freeland/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #chrystiafreeland #canada #donaldtrump #canada
It’s time for a brand-new episode of Alberta Unbound! I sit down with Alberta political journalist Graham Thomson, for a look how and why Mark Carney, Chrystia Freeland and Pierre Poilievre are all leaning into their Alberta roots and identities, as they angle to be prime minister. https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/alberta-unbound/id1511810939?i=1000685752689 #AlbertaUnbound #cdnpoli #Edmonton #Calgary #yeg #LiberalLeadership #MarkCarney #ChrystiaFreeland #Alberta #Canada #ableg #abpoli
Now I understand why Trump says she's "nasty".
It's because she has experience dealing with bullies like him. 
She would be able to stand her ground as well with the Conservatives considering little PP. I mean, they wouldn't be able to complain that she doesn't represent Western Canada well... she's from a farming family in Northern Alberta! They can't say "Just like Trudeau" either because she got demoted since she was not aligned with him!
For months or years, Canadians have spoken about their upcoming federal election as if the result is a foregone conclusion: The Conservatives are set for a huge win. But now, with the resignation of Justin Trudeau, @thetyee says the beleaguered Liberals can make a comeback. Here’s how.

Chrystia Freeland Op-Ed » We won’t back down to Donald Trump. The U.S. should brace for the biggest trade blow it has ever endured | Toronto Star
#ColbyCosh this morning points out the intriguing fact that #MarkCarney and #ChrystiaFreeland both spent their formative years in #Alberta, and of course whichever of the two wins will then face ex-Albertan #PierrePoilievre in a general election.
Let's go, #Alberta !

Who do Canadians want as next Liberal leader? What new poll suggests
Chrystia Freeland tops the list of potential Liberal leadership candidates that Canadians say would make them vote for the Liberals, but the party still faces struggles.

The greatest structural failing in #CanPol is the centralization of power in the PMO. Consequently, I welcomed the resignation of #ChrystiaFreeland in December as a sign of ministers showing independence. Similarly, I welcome the revolt of the Liberal caucuses that forced the hand of the PM.
Putting aside the specific issues and individuals, it's promising to see some of the rusted up mechanisms of our parliamentary system finally starting to function again.
