I've pulled together an article that brings together two very different thinkers talking about issues of relevance to the Prime Minister's reform of the civil service.

Carney did not run on tripling the military budget, nor did he run on slashing 15% from the public service.

He didn't run on cancelling the DST, nor cutting the CBC.

Those facts alone should be enough to oppose these cuts just on principle.

And we don't have a US electoral system. We did not "choose between Carney and [Poilievre]", we elected local MPs. Carney didn't have to "support crazy stuff to get elected", because ha's not dependent on multi-million-dollar dark money PAC funding.

Anyway, you didn't really address my question.
