Carney's former firm Brookfield has been accused of breaching Indigenous rights in 4 countries | CBC News Under Mark Carney's leadership, global investment firm Brookfield was accused of breaching Indigenous rights or harming the environment in at least four countries — Brazil, Canada, Colombia and the Un...

Carney’s commitments to reconciliation are not worth the paper they’re written on.

From fighting Mississauga First Nation in court to violating Indigenous peoples’ rights abroad - Carney’s time at Brookfield shows a complete disregard to reconciliation.

This answer is shameful.

Not fitting of a Prime Minister who has obligations when it comes to First Nations and reconciliation.

Further proof that Mark Carney isn’t in it for Indigenous and Northern communities.

He isn’t in it for regions like ours.

Over the last year & a half, Liberals made Canada complicit in Israeli war crimes.

They've sent a record high $20+ million in explosives & military components to Israel.

Carney's Liberals won't be any different.

Enough is enough, Canada must be a voice for peace and justice.

On Wednesday Mark Carney refused to say if he still holds $6.8 million in Brookfield stock options. He even bizarrely claimed "I own nothing but cash and personal real estate."

He should be clear: What did he put in the blind trust and what stock options does he hold?

Every dollar billionaires keep in tax havens is a dollar deprived from the services you rely on.

Mark Carney has consistently shown a willingness to put billionaires profits ahead of Canadians pockets.

Mark Carney isn’t in it for Canadians.

Started off the Election by visiting at the Keewatin Tribal Council Fishing Derby! A great day!

Looking forward to hitting the road and visiting throughout our region - making it clear that only the NDP fights for Northern and Indigenous communities.

Singh applauds ‘final phase’ of NDP dental plan as Ottawa makes program available to more Canadians | Watch News Videos Online Watch Singh applauds ‘final phase’ of NDP dental plan as Ottawa makes program available to more Canadians Video Online, on GlobalNews.ca

Thanks to the NDP, families earning under $90,000 without coverage will be covered under the NDP dental care plan — the biggest expansion of healthcare in decades.

But the fight is not over, let’s protect dental care from cuts and build on the progress we’ve made.

The choice in this election is clear.

A Liberal banker who is not part of the solution when it comes to Reconciliation and has spent their career helping the rich get richer, a Conservative party that's inspired by Trump, and the NDP that has delivered to expand healthcare.

This election is a choice between the Liberals led by a banker who wants to make life more affordable for millionaires, the Conservatives that looks to Trump for inspiration, and the NDP.

I'm proud of NDP wins like dental care, or the billions we fought for Indigenous services.

Mark Carney's Brookfield fought First Nations in court.

While Carney was in charge of Brookfields "green" energy strategy, Mississauga First Nation was forced to sue the company for violating their treaty rights over hydro dams.

He's right at home in the Liberal caucus.

Right before Mark Carney cut taxes for millionaires, 2 of his pals at Brookfield donated the max amount to him.

Canadians deserve to know what Mark Carney is hiding and who he's working for.

Politicians like Mark Carney or Pierre Poilievre want to intentionally weaken our tax system, making sure that the ultra-wealthy have it easier while you get screwed.

New Democrats will make the wealthy pay their fair share to get you the services you need.

Mark Carney tells reporter to ‘look inside yourself’ over questions on blind trust Prime Minister Mark Carney said Monday that reporters are trying to hold him to a new standard for conflict of interest, insisting he is exceeding the current rules by putting

Message to Mark Carney: Your response to the reporters on your ethics showed Canadians two things.

1. Your arrogance
2. You don’t get it

Disclose your assets now. Not after a potential election call.

Canadian Government Eliminates Minister for Women and Gender Equality Amid United Nations Womens’ Rights Summit | Action Canada for Sexual Health and Rights

Mark Carney eliminated the position of Minister of Women and Gender Equality, a role that has existed in Canada since 1971.

A shocking attempt to silence women's voices.

The NDP will not join the rightward race that Carney and Poilievre are leading.

Ministries of labour and women cut from Carney cabinet Mark Carney leaves out labour and women and shows his government will be closer to the centre-right than his predecessor.

Just when Trump’s tariffs pose the greatest threat in history to Canadian workers, Mark Carney chose to eliminate the Minister of Labour, a position that’s existed since 1909.

It’s a brazen move to sideline labour unions but give Bay Street a front row seat.

Fair taxation has been a main pillar of the Canadian social safety net.

It's been critical in our ability to fund key social programs & deliver a high quality of life.

Time for a fair taxation action plan to fight Trump & strengthen the standing of Canadian workers.

Let's look at what Mark Carney did by shrinking the cabinet.

He chose to eliminate the Minister of the Status of Women and the Minister of Labour.

Carney couldn't send Canadians a clearer message:

He doesn't care about women's issues or workers' issues at all.

Canada's affordability divide: How the 1%'s rise left millions behind Affordability and neoliberalism

When the rich get richer, everyone else gets left behind.

A new report shows the top 0.01% grew their income 6x more than the bottom 50% over the past 40 years.

Meanwhile, more than half of kids in our North grow up in poverty.

Time to tax the rich.

Mark Carney is showing his true colours.

Canadians want a prime minister who stands for peace and justice.

Marco Mendicino has consistently worked against any type of ceasefire in Gaza, choosing to unconditionally back Netanyahu.

Does Carney also oppose a Gaza ceasefire?

Our North sees the second highest child poverty rate in Canada while the rich only get richer.

But Carney and Poilievre want to cut even more taxes on billionaires.

Every dollar they cut for their rich pals is money that isn't going to those who need it most.

That’s quite the return on investment.

You can either get rid of child poverty or billionaires.

Mark Carney, like Poilievre, is making it clear whose side he’s on, and it’s not yours.

Say no to Canadian tax subsidies funding genocide in Palestine Make sure the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) follows international law

Israel’s decision to cut off electricity to Gaza’s last water plant is a continuation of the genocide of Palestinians.

We need a complete arms embargo, and to investigate Canadian 'charities,' who allegedly fund settler groups that block aid into Gaza.
