SUMMARY:CarneyVal Gathering for Fun and Peace in Canada - 27th September 2026
DESCRIPTION:Gather for a family-friendly Carnival on peace. Do you think Carney’s Liberals are standing strong against Trump? Think again! \nPlease join us on the 27th of September 2026\, 1–4pm\, at the Magnus Eliason Recreation Centre at 430 Langside St\, Winnipeg for a lighthearted take on current politics. \nDo you think Carney’s Liberals are standing strong against Trump? Think again! Canada is still buying U.S. fighter jets and not fulfilling Trudeau’s 2015-promises all while the Prime Minister has a conflict of interest disclosure longer than the media can list in a sound bite. With an eye toward collective momentum\, the CarneyVal Organizing Committee invites you to be part of an engaging\, enlivened peaceful\, and entertaining event to organize political action. There will be family friendly games\, activities like Bingo\, speeches on politics\, and performances that focus on opposition to Mark Carney’s brand of austerity politics. \nJoignez-vous à nous le 27 septembre 2026\, de 13 h à 16 h\, au Magnus Eliason Recreation Centre\, au 430\, rue Langside\, à Winnipeg\, pour une soirée détendue sur la politique actuelle. \nVous pensez que les libéraux de Carney tiennent bon face à Trump? Détrompez-vous! Le Canada achète encore des avions de chasse américains et ne tient toujours pas les promesses faites par Trudeau en 2015\, pendant que le premier ministre traîne derrière lui une déclaration de conflits d’intérêts tellement longue que les médias n’arrivent pas à la résumer en une capsule de trente secondes. Dans une optique d’élan collectif\, le comité organisateur CarneyVal vous invite à prendre part à un événement engagé\, vivant\, pacifique et divertissant pour organiser l’action politique. Au programme : des jeux familiaux\, des activités comme le bingo\, des discours sur la politique ainsi que des performances qui s’opposent à la marque d’austérité de Mark Carney.
