For the Canadians who are upset with Prime Minister Carney, his actual comments are measured and fair.

Most importantly for me - as a Canadian and a mother - Canada is not joining this war. That’s the bottom line and I’m relieved.

So…

The UCP is moving procurement, which is the core of the β€œcorrupt care” scandal into…

The premiers office.

Cool.

What could possibly go wrong?

None of Smith's referendum questions are likely to result in actual policy change.

Because they require constitutional amendments (federal veto) or are plainly unconstitutional.

Assuming "yes" votes carry, what then?

Kenney's equalization referendum didn't soothe separatists. It emboldened them.
