So you're lying then, because no one else would put leftist logos on cars:

Poilievre’s own party is forcing him to turn his back on his Alberta base with the secession talk. It’s Conservative vs Conservative! Imagine having to fight with other leaders in your party over whether secession is a good idea! Poor Poilievre! https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7502543 Smith's exuberance over the tariff announcement did not sit well with two members of former prime minister Harper's cabinet, who pointed out that Quebec and Ontario are still facing 25 per cent tariffs on steel and aluminum, and automotive exports to the U.S. "With respect, Premier, this is not a good day for Canada or the world," James Moore said in a social media post. "When Alberta is economically attacked, it is bad for Canada. "Thousands of Canadians in the auto, steel, aluminum and other industries may be losing their jobs. This is not a 'BIG WIN.' Canadians stand together." Describing the tariffs on auto imports as a "devastating blow to hundreds of thousands of good, honest, hard-working Canadians," Jason Kenney, also a former Alberta premier, told Ontarians in a social media post that "the vast majority of Albertans stand proudly with you, and have your back." Kenney even went on to challenge Smith's position on energy, saying that "everything should be on the table" response-wise in order to "defend all industries and jobs" from U.S. trade action

https://ca.news.yahoo.com/conservatives-lead-first-time-federal-223147507.html Conservatives in the lead for first time in federal campaign, new poll shows It has taken a lot of stupid comments, lies, gaffes, the revealing of several of Carney's conflicts of interest, and Carney getting caught with his hands in the US gov't and China cookie jars during this trade war, plus a lot of near-perfect campaigning from Poilievre, in order for the polls to start tilting back towards the PC's in the upcoming election. No doubt the Nanos polls, controlled by ex-LPOC staffer Alexander Nanos, will continue to skew the overall polling results in favour of Nanos's leader of choice, but no intelligent human takes those into consideration. Theoretically this new conservative lead would still translate into another LPOC minority gov't (and another pre-election windfall of LPOC-directed taxpayer money for our MSM to help them in the next election), but I think the polls will swing even further after the debate. Poilievre has a ridiculous number of arrows in his quiver, and Carney has so many things to answer for, that no moderator will be able to deflect every topic away from his laundry list of lies and conflicts of interest. Poilievre will beat Carney like a rented mule on that stage. CBC will no doubt do their best to make the debate (and this election) another referendum on climate change they'll back Carneys false assertions that the PM and Finance Minister had almost nothing to do with Canada's success at avoiding the recession that the US experienced in 2008, because they love the $2,000,000,000.00 taxpayer dollars that the LPOC gave them to help them in these elections the NDP, Bloc and Greens will no doubt see Poilievre as the guy guy to beat, and gang up like the bunch of jackals they are but PP is the most skilled debater that Canada has had in the last 50 years.

I want a prime minister who lives and retires in Canada. After 1984, Pierre Trudeau could have lived anywhere in the world. Instead, he bought a home in Montreal. I remember a famous discussion about Quebec independance in the late 1970s when he was pushed: "I suppose someone will have to negotiate but it won't be me." He wrote somewhere that if he hadn't been born a Quebecer, he would have chosen it. ===== René Lévesque, he had a condo in Nun's Island. Jean Lesage retired to Quebec City. Duplessis lived and died in Quebec. ======= I have no objection to living, working abroad. I have done this. I have had the possibility to have foreign citizenship. I have always refused. My country is Canada. I am not a nationalist but I have only had one passport in my life: a Canadian passport.

LMAO! Sure, Queen Rosie over at CBC rubs her antenna together and everyone just follows orders.

Perhaps you can share more on your idea....what are the founding principles of our country and are any of them still practiced today....All that drives this country is money or the quest to have it....nobody does anything for nothing or patriotism anymore...everyone wants everything for nothing....

Well I'm not dumb enough to believe what you say.

I feel bad for you if you're dumb enough to believe what you said.

It was inevitable. Every right wing party seems to face the same problem in a democracy - their most hard-boiled supporters don't know when to quit and their party can't keep up. The right wing is a direction not a place.

The illiterati strike again....

www.fakenews.com/joe-can't-know If this is true, it's a scandal for the ages. A WH intern may have accidentally texted actual war plans to Joe Biden while he was president, instead of his fake daily briefing. "A WH intern may have accidentally texted actual war plans to Joe Biden while he was president, instead of his fake daily briefing." - no one The plans could have easily been shared with his Chinese banking associates, or he may have even tried to launch "nukuler weppins" on Ukraine, while not even knowing what continent it's on. "This is nonsense!", an angry Adam Schiff fired back. "His phone was never plugged in!"

Well, at least he said it! Carney had stated recently that pipelines won't be built unless ALL indigenous chiefs agree to it. What's new? And........ Carney won't repeal anti-pipeline legislation https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnists/lilley-unleashed-carney-wont-repeal-anti-pipeline-legislation That means........... It'll be the same freakin' bureaucratic bullshit! In other words - we can all forget the dream of pipe-lines and the road to self-reliance! It won't happen! isn't this what they're saying? That, this is an EXISTENTIAL threat? So....whats he on about all chiefs must agree? We need a DECISIVE leader! How many chiefs are going to be the deciding factor whether we sink or float? And, you bet - environmentalists will also be in the equation! 😁 BULLSHIT!

Liberals didn't start the trade war. You sound like someone who blames Ukraine for its invasion.

Everyone is angry. What Albertans apparently need is a rocket scientist to explain why they should focus their anger in the same direction. Maybe whoever Danielle Smith called to get the skinny on the UFO's buzzing around Alberta knows something.

Usually in a two-party system people start yearning for a change for the sake of change after two terms of one of the two parties. Only if the alternative is for some reason unelectable as was the case in the UK in both 1987 and 1992 the party in power remained in power but as soon as the alternative got its act together there was a massive swing in 1997. Then the pendulum swung back 13 years later. And then it swung back 14 years later. That's the dynamic of a two-party system..

The "next guy" will be Vance or Ramaswamy. It's save this country now, or watch it bleed out under the democrats. Those are the choices.

Bigotry? I have great difficulty understanding how that word applies here. I have no hostility to Trump based on his wealth, nationality, race or religion or membership of any other group but merely to his actions over a lifetime and particularly as a feckless head of government clearly hostile to our country. My anger is perfectly reasonable under the circumstances.

Nope. With Goddess however, who knows what she knows? She certainly doesn't.

Your lack of comprehension has achieved Olympic standard. Keep up the good work. Her?

In the immortal words of robo...Duh.

That's true of virtually every death you've associated with COVID. It's always been death by implication.

You are ^LYING as USUAL. The Next President Inherits a Remarkable Economy WSJ https://www.wsj.com › Economy › Capital Account Oct 31, 2024 — The high quality of recent economic growth should put a wind at the back of the White House's next occupant.

The funny part is she’s hurting Poilievre’s chances of being elected. He doesn’t need more fringe votes from separatists. He needs votes from normal Canadians outside of the Prairies. The Conservative brand being angry separatist if they don’t get their way won’t help him. Manning forced Poilievre to imply that a Liberal 4th term isn’t the end of the world! He had to defend Carney winning! But he couldn’t say anything that even implied he is pro-secession; that would have sealed the Cons’ electoral fate. https://ca.news.yahoo.com/poilievre-disagrees-ex-reform-boss-171850864.html Manning wrote: “Voters, particularly in central and Atlantic Canada, need to recognize that a vote for the Carney Liberals is a vote for Western secession — a vote for the breakup of Canada as we know it.” While campaigning at a manufacturing plant in Kingston, Poilievre was asked whether he agrees with Manning’s statement. “No, we need to unite the country,” he told reporters. “We need to bring all Canadians together in a spirit of common ground.

Some MSM Star Chamber got together, had a meeting and decided this? Do you have a copy of the list of attendees, meeting agenda, minutes, motions etc?

Smith is a low functioning narcissist who has brought unnecessary conflict to everything she’s been involved in.

Bump. I'm gonna keep this in your faces till the economy comes roaring back. Gas prices are going down and so are a lot of things. Manufacturing is returning and The Gulf of America is open for business again.

Thanks. It's always nice to wake-up to a good chuckle.

Well. I see you managed to hook a couple of bottom fish pretty good there At this rate you're going to need a bigger boat And btw, Not only was biden's phone never plugged in but his laptop computer was the latest generation that didn't even NEED to be plugged in. It didn't run on conventional power at all. Fortunately i understand that it was "wiped" regularly.

You know, honestly @Nationalist i was thinking "how could i make him look even more stupid and clueless" as i was writing that and i couldn't come up with anything. Robo just demonstrated why these things should be left to the experts

If there was a hypocrisy award on this forum, it would win herbie.

I never supported the burning of Tesla's or anything close to the sort. In fact I feel the exact opposite, the burning is stupid. Please stop lying. What I said is that Elon complaining about Tesla's being burned while supporting the POTUS that pardoned all the Jan 6 rioters is a hypocrite. Karma's a beeyotch. Then everyone on here who lives 6 inches up Elon and Trump's rear-end took a hissy-fit. Every single person who decries the Tesla's being burned while supporting Trump need to zip it, they have no leg to stand on as the giant hypocrites that they are. Me on the other hand does not support Tesla's being burned or Trump pardoning criminals & trying to steal elections because i'm a sane and rational human being that believes in the rule of law. *Eeeek*

If there was a hypocrisy award on this forum, you would be the undisputed champ year after year.

No, they manufacture a lot because they have infinite cheap highly repressed labor and 76 years of intense government projects to build up industries.

I could have said he manufactures razors.

Yeah but you have to buy it twice, first one broke.

I tend to agree.

The handful of ingrate Albertans has been given 10,000 X more press than they deserved since Day One. They deserve a good smack down and to be out in their place. Merely a handful of shameless traitors who think For A Few Dollars More is a founding principle to build a country on.

Go ahead, dig into it. Find every fault in it. Then try to tell us how someone else's housing plan is better. Ya look at what's on the table, and your supposed to pick the best one.

Brilliant. Now 'e's gonna change 'is password and we'll have to hack it again.

Slaver. Go have a nice slave salad.

Most of the Nobel Laureates in Economic Sciences since 1969 have been American. https://www.statista.com/statistics/262901/nobel-prize-winners-in-economics-by-nationality/ What a humiliation for the country that produced them to inflict such a moronic tariff formula on the world. An amateurish effort - grade F.

Why, are you looking for a friend?

I've always had respect for Coyne's thought on things. Way back in the day when the old now defunct National Post forum from which our forum is rooted he once mused on At Issue while covering a corruption scandal that he could understand why someone might suggest using cameras and microphones to keep politicians honest. I had recently written a letter to the Nat Post editor that made letter of the day on the topic. They're still there, apparently in a state of disarray but trying to find a voice that articulates a rational counter to the dingbats. Another similarly rational conservative I respect is David Frum. Rex Murphy was great back in the day too but lost it near the end.

Sure are. And this is just brainless. As a guy explained on BNN this evening, under Trump's tariffs an Iphone is going to cost over $2000. And when asked what it would cost if made in the US he said about $3500. The work done by Apple subcontractors in China like Foxconn is not exactly great. Their workers throw themselves off the building! You won't get Americans to work those kinds of hours, and even for an 8hr shift you'll have to pay them $25hr - at least and spend billions on the factory and parts makers. What are you invested in, cocaine? When the market goes down 2000 points everyone's investments suffer. Unless they have none.

Yes, individuals who are on the political left right now are attacking Teslas, vandalizing them, torching them, and they are openly cheering it all on during late-night talk shows. To sit here pretending like this targeted violence is not politically motivated by one side of the spectrum right now is just dishonest.

I'm telling you, Trump wants Carney............because with Carney, things won't change in Canada. It'll be back to the TRUDEAU years.......... ......and, with the economic squeeze Trump is gonna apply........ ........we'll get fast tracked to becoming the 51st state. If Carney wins, I say.......let's talk again in a couple of years or so, and see how we're doing.

Let's count all the ways donalds been f___ing with Canada together, shall we? 1. Donald has waged an unprovoked trade war on Canada. 2. Donald gone on incessantly about Canada annexation, making it the 51st state. Completely disrespecting Canada's sovereignty. 3. Donalds cronies have floated the possibility of restructuring the Canadian/American border. An act that would take Canadian land. I know a lot of yall here are true trumpie cultists. So I'd like to know, how do yall like having Donald attack you like this? Are you starting to see donald for the felonious piece of shit he is? Or, are you still a brown-nosed suck-up to "king" donald?
