1. Críticas a la Concentración de Poder y Autoritarismo.
Existe una fuerte percepción de que los políticos, particularmente los premiers conservadores en Alberta (Smith) y Ontario (Ford), están consolidando poder de manera antidemocrática, ignorando los límites constitucionales y castigando la disidencia.
- Tired of con premiers granting themselves unprecedented power. Theyve crossed democratic red lines numerous times now. Theyve trashed the social contract. They game the electoral system claim mandates to justify blatant cronyism. Their actions are illegitimate, and incompatible with democracy.
- Ford is an authoritarian wannabe. This is simply a power grab. There is no reason or sense behind this other than to consolidate power in the premiers office.
- Doug ford has done the same in ontario. These conservative premiers want all the power in their hands. They are scary. We need to vote them out!
- Smith and the ucp have now attacked the charter rights of workers and children all within weeks. Call this what it is an unhinged abuse of power and a fascist attack on the rights and freedoms of all albertans. This is an authoritarian government, and its time we started acting like it.
- The continuing push to consolidate power in the premiers office should concern us all. Particularly since he has no qualms about pushing legislation through without debate.
2. Uso Cuestionable de Cláusulas Constitucionales.
El uso repetido de la cláusula de "no obstante" (notwithstanding clause) por parte de gobiernos provinciales, especialmente en Alberta, es visto como una táctica para anular derechos protegidos por la Carta y evitar la revisión judicial, lo que se percibe como un abuso de poder.
- Shame on danielle smith for stripping charter rights from alberta parentsyouth and hiding behind the notwithstanding clause.
- The ucp has invoked the notwithstanding clause pre-emptively. Again. This time to strip the charter rights of trans children and adults. This is sadly and entirely predictable from a populist government bent on removing checks on its power.
- The notwithstanding clause is a not a dog whistle clause. Its supposed to mean something but it means nothing more than power to those who stands for nothing.
3. Desconfianza en el Liderazgo Federal y el Partido Liberal.
Hay decepción con el Primer Ministro Carney, percibido por algunos como un tecnócrata o conservador encubierto que prioriza intereses corporativos y acuerdos como el MOU con Alberta sobre las promesas progresistas que lo llevaron al poder.
- Carneys decisions reveal a clear priority short-term tactical gain over loyalty to those who put him in power. He won thanks to progressives, yet courts conservatives at their expense.
- I cannot support the carney liberal government. It is not as good as our prior trudeau liberal government where the ndp held the balance of power.
- This is craven and beyond contempt. Theres no justification. Carney is using the perceived threats from the us to justify slashing commitments, checks, and balances as they pertain to environment, labour, and basically everything else. This is a corporate power grab and an attack on everyone.
4. Preocupación por el Partido Conservador Federal (CPC).
Pierre Poilievre es frecuentemente criticado por ser ambicioso, divisivo y por emular tácticas populistas estadounidenses, lo que genera temor sobre lo que haría si llegara al poder federal.
- At what point will the conservatives realize that the only reason that they lost the last election was the sole fault of pierre poilievre. Hes an asshole. Everyone knows it. He is only in it for the attainment of personal power. Not for canadians.
- Poilievre is canadas trump. A privileged white male who is panicking because he sees his power diminishing with our growing multiculturalism. Conservatives are battling for racism and bigotry. For it! how very uncanadian.
- Which of the following best describes what motivates pierre poilievre most? ambition for personal power 35 sense of duty to canada 16 vision for the countrys future 13 desire to help people like me 13 pressure from his partysupporters 6 abacus nov 27, 2025 n2074 online.
5. Comparaciones con el Populismo Estadounidense (Trump/MAGA).
Muchos comentaristas trazan paralelismos directos entre las acciones de los líderes conservadores canadienses y las tendencias autoritarias observadas en la política estadounidense bajo Donald Trump.
- 67 this goes beyond conservatism it is rampant populism. When a premier overrides charter rights to target a vulnerable population, it signals a troubling shift in how power is exercised across canada.
- King of america. Queen of alberta. Two birds of a feather donald trump, danielle smith share an authoritarian impulse to break democratic guardrails while accruing more governing power to themselves.
- Consolidating power the way only the magats know how. What a shameful disgrace that people keep voting for this evil man who does not give a rats ass about the people of ontario.
6. Preocupación por la Erosión de Normas y la Desconfianza Institucional.
Hay un sentimiento generalizado de que las normas democráticas y el decoro han desaparecido, y que las instituciones (tribunales, autoridades de conservación, juntas escolares) están siendo debilitadas para centralizar el control.
- You can see across the political spectrum that norms and decorum are fucking gone.
- When a govnt - the alberta ucp govnt danielle smith in this instance - starts to try undermine the integrity of tye legal system you know theyre lost the plot totally. Independent judges, courts the law are all that protects us from absolute power in the hands of the separatists.
- The united conservative party approach delegitimizing courts as undemocratic doesnt conserve anything. It weakens faith in institutions, trains citizens to trust only the people as embodied in the premier of the day, and clears the way for unchecked executive power.
7. Impacto en la Relación Canadá-EE. UU.
La inestabilidad política y las acciones percibidas como hostiles del gobierno estadounidense bajo Trump han dañado la confianza, llevando a algunos canadienses a abogar por una mayor independencia económica y un distanciamiento de EE. UU.
- I truly hope its only the relationship between the canadian government and the clown car of miscreants and felons who currently occupy power in the us.
- Sadly our rude awakening during the trump years has shown that the preferred status canada gave to trading with the us was fragile and could turn on the whim of whoever happened to be in power in washington. Canadian sentiment is one of betrayal, and canada can no longer rely on us loyalty.
- Canada finally has a seat at the bloody table. There is no un-bloody table available. Ogre in the oval is on the rampage. We have a network to build. We have a nation to defend.
