I appreciate it, though being hostile back won’t change anything. Being mass downvoted, insulted, and called a troll for asking what actions people expect from the Prime Minister has led me to the conclusion that this isn’t a place for discussion.

For myself, I’m not particularly political, so a lot of this is new to me, but I do feel like things need to be better, I just don’t specifically know how they should be done.

Now that is a breath of fresh air!

I appreciate your reply! I felt like I was going crazy with everyone insulting me for some reason. I’m not sure what I did wrong. Maybe there was a better way to phrase my questions? Maybe it’s just the nature of all political discussion now?

I was just curious about what people actually what Carney to do. People say he needs to do better but they won’t say what that entails. Perhaps they can’t say because they don’t actually know. They just feel like he needs to do better.

I get the sense that people want Carney to be a showman like Trump. That he should ratio Trump on Twitter with some sick comeback and yell into a camera once in a while instead of always being boring and diplomatic. While that might make some Canadians happy, I’m not sure how it would help. I wouldn’t say Trump’s way of diplomacy has won the US any favours. Their cities are begging for tourists, their companies are begging for customers, and their politicians are begging to not be shot. Do we really want to emulate their leader? Does a strong man need to yell?

Should Carney be included in that list? Genuine question. I wouldn’t put him in the same league as the others but, from the article and the way people are commenting, it seems like people would disagree.

to be the strong prime minister he said he would be, and not back down from what he said he would do.

Right. I get that. How would Carney go about being a strong prime minister? That’s what I’m asking. The article doesn’t say and the only thing I’ve gotten in these threads is that he should fact check more.

I’m that obtuse apparently. As far as I know every Canadian politician has denounced Trumps 51st state rhetoric. Is there something I’m missing?

I just didn’t see what point the author was trying to make. What did they mean by saying Carney needs to be a “war time prime minister”? I see now that he meant Carney needs to fact check more.

I still haven’t received an answer of what people want the government to do. Fact checking is something the government can do but I don’t see that being what people are asking for.

Has the government not been doing that?

So just fact check? The Canadian government should fact check the US government?

Resist what?

What do you mean by “not cede ground”?

This article doesn’t contain a point. What does the author want the government to do?

This better not awaken anything in me 🤔

Any links?

Silly professor! You can only say that kind of stuff on campus if you’re under a tent that says “Prove me wrong”

I’m wondering what exactly caused so many downvotes?

The post references AI. Automatic downvotes.

These petitions get a “government response” which is typically an MP from the government giving a canned response. I’d love to see a link to whatever record you are talking about.
