“commercial free speech”

By which they mean lying. They want to be able to legally lie about environment-related claims to Canadians. I’m curious what planet they’re from

Ah ok, I stand corrected - thanks for this.

Although Carney did say as recently as April that he believed legislation like this was “not necessary”, so I’ll stand by my comment insofar as it reflects/reflected Carney’s position. https://ca.news.yahoo.com/carney-says-law-protecting-canadas-022837900.html

This theory is only falsifiable if Carney breaks an explicit promise he made during the election.

If supply management isn’t dropped (by the way, Trump is already going after it, now that Carney caved on the DST) then you’ll want to claim that this theory of yours was correct - but in reality, Carney’s pathetic capitulation on the DST likely has absolutely nothing to do with keeping supply management.

Regardless, if Carney doesn’t break this unambiguous election promise, that’s not a cause for celebration or congratulations. He could’ve passed a bill to protect supply management - was asked directly to do so - and he intentionally didn’t do it.

It’s almost as if he wants to be strong-armed into giving it away. And boy oh boy I can’t wait to hear from his sycophantic fans why it was actually a genius move to get rid of supply management, once it’s gone.

It only applies to a few enormous corporations, that mostly generate revenue through ad sales.

Would Canadian companies really all have increased their Facebook ad budgets over this? I kinda doubt it, tbh
