Private capital isn’t avoiding pipelines because the business case vanished. It’s avoiding Canada because governments turned approvals into a political minefield. When investors can spend billions elsewhere with fewer delays, lawsuits, and moving goalposts, they will. Then Ottawa pretends the lack of investment proves the project never made economic... show more

Economic rocket fuel to relaunch 🇨🇦’s economy. Zero capital gains tax if you reinvest the money in Canada. Bringing home tens of billions of dollars of investment will build homes, factories, pipelines, technology and more—to break our dependence on the U.S. Canada First — For a Change:

Conservatives believe a West Coast pipeline should not be held hostage by another costly Liberal condition. Why should Canadians have to spend billions on a costly Liberal condition - that's actually provincial jurisdiction - before Canada gets a profitable pipeline? That's unfair, unnecessary, and exactly the kind of Liberal political extortion that drove private-sector investment out of Canada in the first place. Conservatives will continue to fight to axe the federal industrial carbon tax, repeal and reform anti-development Liberal laws, cut red tape, restore private-sector confidence so pipelines can get built with private money, for jobs, energy security, strength here at home, and unbreakable leverage abroad.

Mark Carney says Canada is ready to build while his own Liberals continue to prove the opposite. Another $70 billion UAE investment stalled because the Liberals do not have enough shovel-ready projects. Meanwhile, 500 projects still wait for federal approval. This is not a lack of opportunity. It is a lack of political will. Canada needs taxes and red tape cut and the Liberal anti-development laws and regulations that block projects repealed and reformed, so major projects can move forward with investment from the private sector, for the benefit of all Canadians.

By the end of 2027: High-paying jobs will be moving back to Ohio because we’re ending capital gains taxation. Electric bills will be lower because we’re producing more energy right here in our state. Our schools will be performing better because we replace woke indoctrination with academic standards – in math, reading, writing, and civics. Housing costs will be lower because we’re cutting property taxes and building more homes. Young professionals will be moving back into our state’s great cities because they feel safe. People with differing political beliefs will still be able to be friends and get together at the dinner table – because it’s easier for us to unite during a rising economic tide.

The Infantilization of Indigenous Culture Has Become a Shield for Corruption No serious country would funnel billions into reserves year after year while families still live in mouldy homes and boil their water because local leadership can’t keep a treatment plant running. Yet Canada treats this as normal and untouchable. And it’s not just budgets. In Richmond, B.C., private property is now being seized because a tribe fished there centuries ago. That isn’t reconciliation; it’s rewriting property rights on the basis of political mythology. Which leads to the obvious question no one in Ottawa will touch: if Indigenous reserves are self-governing )and they are) how can Canadians be blamed for the outcomes inside them? Either these communities govern themselves or they don’t. Authority comes with responsibility. You can’t demand full autonomy and then deflect all accountability.

It’s insane that the left will vandalize your car because they disagree with the politics of the CEO of the company that manufactured the car you drive. They don’t care if the Tesla owner is a Democrat or a Republican. They just disagree with and hate Elon Musk. But when has the left EVER made sense? 🤔

I believe fear of China, not politics, will ultimately bring North America back together. As the race for AI, energy, and critical infrastructure accelerates, economic reality will outweigh political disagreements because the United States, Canada, and Mexico are stronger when they work together. Canada has the energy and critical minerals, the United States has the scale and innovation, and Mexico plays a vital role in the North American economy. In the long run, cooperation is not just good policy, it’s an economic necessity.

I’m worried about the market — and it’s not vibes, it’s capital flows. When Buffett pulls $400B, pay attention. And when America starts losing its reputation as the safest, most predictable place for money, that’s a real problem. This isn’t a consumer boycott — it’s a capital boycott. Sovereign wealth funds, global investors, tourists — they’re reallocating. Tourism alone is bigger than manufacturing, and the numbers are sliding. Markets can ignore this for a while, especially tech, but the knock-on effects are real. When trust in the rule of law erodes, money quietly goes elsewhere.

The Urannah Dam project was cancelled by the Albanese Labor government in 2022. I wanted to see the final business case and environmental impact study (EIS) to see what they are hiding. The Commonwealth threw $22.65 million into the business case and approvals, then Bowen River Utilities withdrew the scheme from Queensland's environmental assessment processes in December 2022. When I asked why it was withdrawn, where the final business case is, and where the EIS is, the department agreed to provide it on notice. They claimed that because of "Commonwealth-state relations," the ownership of these taxpayer-funded documents rests with the state, though they "encourage" publication. I’ve requested copies if they have access to them. I asked if the bureaucrats are looking at the bigger picture regarding future water demand in the Burdekin Basin. There is massive potential in the Great Australian Infrastructure Project, which would see a major steel mill established at Collinsville, along with other mills in Central Queensland. These visionary projects will have a massive appetite for water. The department representative admitted he only knows about these vital industrial opportunities from reading the newspapers. They did note they are partnering with Queensland on a broader "Burdekin Regional Water Assessment" to look at basin-wide supply and demand, however it’s clear they are disconnected from real-world economic development. Whether it’s Paradise Dam or Urannah Dam, we are seeing the same pattern: endless assessments, massive cost escalations, secret reports and a total lack of urgency from state and federal governments to actually build the water infrastructure Australia.

“Fairness” = give the bureaucracy more money? Canada’s Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland is raising the tax on capital investments to the highest level in the G7. This video reveals a sad, dystopian view of Canadians. She uses the resentful ‘class war’ language of the 1970s, where Canada will be filled with a sad majority feeling ‘wrath’ unless you accept her new tax. Who writes these speeches? Have they travelled? Famously egalitarian nations Belgium and Switzerland and Singapore have zero cap gains taxes. Do they hate fairness? Seriously, this is her proposal: Take $18 billion in risk capital proceeds away from Canada’s small but critical investor class with a globally uncompetitive tax rate. Then give that money - along with another $40 billion in debt - to a federal bureaucracy that currently does not show up for work in person more than twice a week. They will invest it instead. The nation will heal. Thats not fairness. It’s losing. Again. On an international scale. Here’s why this tax will add to her economic losing streak: 1. It kills economic growth. Taxing capital investment discourages the cash that backs the entrepreneurial ideas that turn into the jobs and companies that grow the economy and improve productivity and living standards. Every other large advanced economy will have a lower cap gains tax than Canada. Are they less ‘fair’ than Minister Freeland? Or do they have an economic strategy of shared prosperity that allows for individual success without the sad language of class resentment and envy? Every company whose services we love today - no matter how large - started with an entrepreneur - and some investors crazy enough to fund them with risk capital. Most nations do whatever they can to attract entrepreneurs and investors because they bring growth and economic vitality and jobs. This Minister is taxing them away in the name of fairness. But federal fiscal incoherence is costing Canadians $54 billion interest losses degrading public services and the worst declining GDP performance in the G7 2019-2024 and the worst GDP per capita of all 40 advanced nations in the OECD modelled out to 2030. Fairness for Canadians starts with federal fiscal competence. 2. It kills jobs (the real ones): The private sector creates jobs when good ideas or expansion is funded by risk capital - that is why positive jobs reports are usually signals of economic growth. But Canada’s jobs reports aren’t signals of economic growth anymore because they feature a failing economy where most of the jobs being reported are actually government roles bought with debt. This kills economic productivity. When governments use debt to buy jobs it turns a single debt-funded position into a permanent unfunded annual govt operating cost. Every one of these jobs costs more in tax, debt and interest than it can ever contribute back. Taxing the risk capital that creates real jobs while borrowing money to buy public sector jobs with debt - the current modus operandi of this government and its “jobs” announcements - kills GDP productivity. 3. It takes Canada backwards Canada’s private sector is the only mechanism to fund Canadian prosperity. Risk capital funds the companies and jobs that are the engine that pays for everything - including all government employees and services - and all debt and interest. A previous Liberal government knew this. They dropped this tax back in 2000 to help Canada compete with the rest of the world, who in turn compete hard for the mobile investment capital of the smartest and most successful investors because it has such a positive impact on economic growth. For everyone. Economic prosperity is the best form of fairness. Going backwards to economic policies from the last century, wrapped in the dystopian language of big government ‘fairness’ isn’t helping anyone. Cut taxes, spending and the bloated state. Fairness = fiscal competence.

💥Mark Carney is leading the charge to carve up Canada through sovereign wealth funds, and the Canadian Armed Forces is on the menu. This fall, the Prime Minister will host an “Investment Summit” in Toronto, welcoming the world’s largest sovereign wealth funds and private investors to buy into Canada’s defence and national security—and it starts with the newly announced Drone Development Facilities. These facilities are being turned into a private corporation partnered with the Department of National Defence, creating a direct pathway for foreign capital to flow into Canada’s military systems. What could go wrong?

🔥 HUMILIATION: Mark Carney just handed Donald Trump a billion-dollar victory — and exposed the total collapse of Canada’s economic credibility. Nutrien — one of Canada’s flagship companies and the world’s largest potash producer — has chosen to invest $1 BILLION not in Canada… …but in Longview, Washington. Why? Because after a decade of Liberal mismanagement: • Canada’s ports are congested • Labour disruptions are constant • Regulatory approvals move at glacial speed • Supply chains are unreliable • And Mark Carney’s “modern economy” is driving capital out of the country This isn’t just a business decision. It’s a verdict. A billion-dollar investment left Canada and landed on Trump’s doorstep — because the United States is now cheaper, faster, and more stable than Trudeau & Carney’s Canada. A catastrophic loss for Carney. A billion-dollar win for Trump. And a warning shot for every nation following globalist economic fantasies. Watch Alberta closely.

This is the exact location where Justin Trudeau trampled hard working Canadians for the crime of waving Canadian flags and froze their bank accounts. Under Justin Trudeau, Canada has turned into a country where jihadists feel comfortable breaking any laws because they know there are no serious consequences. 🎥: Chris Dacey

🚨 David David Knight Legg: Why Meta chose Alberta for a $13-billion investment 'This is something that takes Alberta into the next century,' said Legg on Thursday's episode of The Ezra Levant 🍁🚛 Show. On Thursday's episode of The Ezra Levant Show, David Knight Legg joined the show to discuss Meta’s $13 billion Alberta project, the failure of crony capitalism and Alberta’s resurgence as a tech powerhouse. Here’s something you haven’t seen in Canada for a long time, a colossal industrial investment that didn’t come with a government handout. Meta, the company formerly known as Facebook, is putting $13 billion into a new data centre in Sturgeon County, Alberta. Not in Ontario, not in Quebec and not with a single federal minister claiming credit. Private capital, real jobs and a bold new stake in the digital economy. Contrast that with what’s become the norm in Canada. Under Justin Trudeau and Mark Carney, industrial projects have meant government projects, taxpayer-funded battery plants and wind farms, mostly in Ontario and Quebec, with politicians demanding their cut of the credit. Tens of billions shovelled into factories that only exist because governments paid them to. That’s called crony capitalism. But Meta’s announcement flips that script. This isn’t a backroom deal cooked up in Ottawa. There’s no major project office smoothing the path, no prime ministerial intervention. Instead, what Alberta has built is a climate for investment, tax cuts, regulatory reform and a pro-business attitude that says if you want to build, build. And they have. Meta’s data centre will mean 3,000 construction jobs at the peak, more than 300 permanent roles and $60 million in local infrastructure upgrades. Not a cent of it was paid for by taxpayers. In fact, the money that governments are bragging about is tax revenue and salaries, not outflows but inflows. David Knight Legg, who helped shape Alberta’s investment strategy, spells it out: Alberta’s approach is paying off. Private investors are coming back. Meta isn’t alone. Dow, Linde Corporation, and Air Products have all chosen Alberta recently, drawn by the same formula: low taxes, stable regulation and abundant energy. Alberta has done what the Irish Development Agency did for Ireland, turning the province into a magnet for global capital with policy, not handouts. This is the clearest sign yet that Canada can compete when the government gets out of the way. Meta’s centre is a next-generation, AI-optimized hub, one gigawatt of power, fully matched by renewable energy and designed for zero operational water consumption. It’s the 33rd in Meta’s global fleet but the first in Canada and the largest outside the United States. This is exactly the kind of project politicians say they want: high-tech, green and future-focused. Only this time, they didn’t write the cheque. What those advocates for government-led industrial policy won’t tell you is this: When you let the market work, when you set the right incentives and when you stop treating business as a cash cow, real investment follows. Alberta is proving it. And Meta’s $13 billion bet is just the start.

Carney is taking on the burden of ten years under the Idiot King, who brought Canada to its knees in every economic measure imaginable. We want this new prime minister to succeed because Canada is uninvestable. We really need to find a way to attract capital to come back. We have no revenue in Canada. There's no dollars coming in here. There's no pipelines, there's no oil exports. There's nothing growing at all. You gotta pick the biggest revenue source we can get first, and that fortunately is what Danielle Smith has. It's oil. Billions and billions of dollars worth of oil and gas.
