Today's Liberals have drifted from traditional liberal values | Jasmin Laine

The Liberal Party's official accounts are now describing the leader of the opposition as someone who does not believe in Canada. Jasmin Laine joins Jim and Iain to unpack what that kind of language actually signals. The conversation traces a pattern from David Eby's "MAGA North" framing of the Conservative leader through to Carney's recent comments, and asks what it means when a governing party starts describing political disagreement as disloyalty to the country itself. Topics covered: ► Mark Carney's comment that the leader of the opposition doesn't believe in Canada, posted on official Liberal Party accounts ► David Eby's earlier framing of the Conservative leader as a regional manager of MAGA ► Jasmin Laine on why this rhetoric reeks of desperation rather than genuine concern ► Comparisons to how authoritarian governments historically label domestic critics as foreign agents ► The double standard in media coverage between accusations against Carney and accusations against Conservative figures ► Liberal MP Michael Ma's correction after his comments on forced labour were misheard as referring to Xinjiang instead of Shenzhen ► Why know your data is offered as the most effective response to character attacks in political debate ► The argument that today's Liberal Party has shifted further from traditional liberal values than the modern Conservative Party Is calling political opponents disloyal to the country a tactic that backfires, or does it actually work on Canadian voters?
