You dodged. I'm sure you thought it was clever and that we wouldn't notice but..... -
Ahhh! Well then you're just lying. At no point in time did harper or PP sell off 800 thousand low income housing units. That is a simple lie. Not hard in the slightest. Housing prices were below where they should have been when harper came in, harper turned the economy around and got things: And not surprisingly people started buying homes again. Prices went up. That's expected. Let me use Simple Math that even you can understand. If you consider 100 to be the average normal price in a healthy market, and the price falls to $50 during the crutch end years, then climbs back up to 100, That looks like a 100% increase. Sounds impressive but in reality you're making up for lost ground for the most part However, if you start at 100 and then jump to 150, it only looks like a 50 percent increase but it's now WAAAY above what's affordable. I'm sure you can see the difference. Justin was the second one Not to you apparently Harper was a runaway success and even his opponents generally acknowledge this. He had one of the best economies and best responses to one of the greatest recessions since the 1930s. He did far better than most and his economic policies were groundbreaking at the time. Where other governments have to bail out Industries for the most part he actually found ways to keep the banks afloat while making Canadians money instead of costing them Financially speaking harper was almost without a doubt the best prime minister we have ever had and this is why in poll after poll he tends to score in the top three often at the very top when people ask who was the best prime minister. All you're doing is showing your political ignorance and partisanship when you make stupid statements like that. You can say what you like but the reality is canada did better financially under harper given the circumstances of the time that at any other time in history with any other prime minister in history. We barely felt the recession compared to most people

Have you sought the opinion of any scientists or are you just going with your own feeling? Why, what did you base your choice on - did you try something like this? Scientific consensus is the collective judgment, position, and opinion of the vast majority of active, qualified experts on a conclusion in a specific scientific discipline.[1] Scientific consensus results from the self-correcting scientific process of peer review, replication of the event through the scientific method, scholarly debate, meta-analysis, and publication of high-quality review articles, monographs, or guidelines in reputable books and journals to establish facts and durable knowledge about the topic. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_consensus BTW, you won't find any mention of voting on what facts or theories win. That's up to science.

Canada's economy reverses months of slow growth with 0.5% boost in April Canada's economy showed signs of rebounding by growing 0.5 per cent in April, reversing months of slow and negative economic growth. Real gross domestic product is up half a percentage point largely because of growth in the mining, quarrying and oil and gas extraction sectors, Statistics Canada said in its latest report, released Tuesday. "The mining, quarrying and oil and gas extraction sector rose 2.9 per cent in April, the largest monthly growth rate since February 2024 (+3.2 per cent), more than offsetting March's 1.4 per cent contraction," the agency said in the report. The report comes amid concerns about the state of Canada's economy, as Statistics Canada previously reported that GDP contracted in the first quarter of 2026 and the last quarter of 2025, prompting fears of a "technical recession."The effect of U.S. tariffs on Canadian goods has also been a source of economic anxiety, particularly as the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement review deadline approaches on Wednesday. Statistics Canada reported that oil and gas extraction rose 3.7 per cent in April — the largest monthly increase since February 2024. Oil sands extraction led the way. … The agency's early estimates have growth moderating but continuing with an increase of 0.1 per cent in May thanks to growth in finance, insurance, real estate and leasing. Manufacturing, public sector also growing Industries outside of natural resources also expanded, including the manufacturing sector (0.6 per cent) and the public sector (0.4 per cent). The report said federal government public administration grew for the first time in four months, while defence services grew for the seventh consecutive month. Fourteen of 20 industrial sectors grew in April, according to the report…. Cautious optimism Analysts say the number marks a break from the economy's previous slow growth. "It’s a significant bounce back after a number of softer months," Nathan Janzen, assistant chief economist at RBC, said in an interview. "We had economic activity stall over the winter… so to see stronger activity in April to start off Q2 is encouraging." … https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/april-gdp-numbers-canada-9.7253694

That's right in Galileo's case the consensus against him was strictly political and religious - like your's, it was based on the inability to admit it was wrong.

Earth's climate has always been dynamic and changing. And it operates independently of any single variable. We are coming out of The Little Ice Age, we are supposed to warm up. History has always shown that warmth delivers prosperity. Cold spells always bring hardship. The Holocene Era was a rollercoaster, but both the Roman Warming Period and the Medieval Warm Period were marked by booming agriculture and expanding empires. And that is the paradox not addressed by the climate fanatics - Why are ancient warm periods celebrated as golden eras, but today's mild shifts are framed as catastrophic? Instead of destroying our economic engines, isn't there a better way of managing earth's changing temperatures and adapting using our incredible technological capabilities?

Sure, I can see millions of trees dying of drought in the rain forest I live in where there have never been droughts of this scale since before the last ice age. I can see thousands of whales have disappeared because the whale's food can't adapt to a lack of sea ice due to a warming ocean. I can drive boats thru areas that are now barren of kelp forests due to a more acidic warmer ocean - made worse for the same reason, by the disappearance of sea stars up and down the coast that are vital to the health and structural integrity of kelp forests. I can also hear what local scientists I know are saying about why and the consensus is AGW. Maybe you don't have scientists in the biogeoclimatic zone you live in or your're to young to appreciate the changes to it. Maybe you live in a city and don't get out much. There's probably a scientific reason. Perhaps the field of agnotology can provide it.

My question would be did the harper government use tax payers money to sell off thesed affordable rental units, was anyone bailed out.... If it is not a bail out what is it....using taxpayers money to purchase condos at inflated prices then turn them into affordable housing....is a bail out for contractors and bankers bad decisions, how is any of this a good idea... Ya right, give us a quote for thoise prices because they don't match anything in NB, where housing has gone up well over 100 % in most areas... Just another example of liberals helping out liberals... https://www.pressreader.com/canada/times-transcript/20250410/281599541329542
