What is with the left and their spam?

The title is misleading. Life expectancy has gone up in Canada over that period.

I did, and what I was able to find directly contradicts what you said, so I cited it here. It appears you were talking bullshit...again.

but they were wrong as it turns out. And you didn't really care about the children, what you cared about is trying to support the idea of left-wing control over people We've seen it a million times from you, you will happily see the death of a child or a woman or anybody at all if it advances what you perceive to be your socialist agenda.

Holy shit, I think you just completely destroyed your glass house, you unvetted Twitter-reposting mofo.🙄 "What, some rando said something on Twitter? I better go put it on a poltical forum as if it's news!"

I refuted your shit and you just ignored it. Because all you post is spam. Spam is posted links with no identifying commentary. Like this thread.

Yup, a whole lot actually, numerous studies have found that higher social spending is associated with longer life expectancies. Slashing taxes leads to lower social spending and lower life expectancies...except for the 1-3% of course.

Can you provide any sources for that then?

Can you provide a link for that? I can't easily find it.

I'm talking to the pool members...

So you're doubling down on your appeal to popularity FALLACY because you don't understand what FALLACY means. LMAO

You said our ranking didn't slide during the Harper and I asked you if you had any cites or proof. As usual, you did not. As usual, you refused to provide anything and instead opted for useless long-form bloviating. In contrast, I did a 10 second Google search and quickly discovered you were full of shit. Even here, you're full of shit: Is 6-8 places also a rounding error? If so, then you'd have to excuse the decline under the Liberal years as well. We could, of course, have a discussion about why Canada is declining relative to other countries. Is it because we're not doing well, or other countries are doing better? What's the difference and how much does it matter. That sort of adult, nuanced discussion isn't going to happen with you participating, however.

But that's three quarters of the way through the fiscal year. What a clown show.

Now that Carney has completely alienated Elizabeth May, it's even more likely the government will fall next spring when the 2026 budget is released.

The Democrats blamed the Republicans over the Iran's continued enrichment. Trump said "hold me beer" The Democrats appeased Chavez and Chavez Light(Maduro) Trump said "get out while you can" The Democrats yawned when Iran and their associated middle east terror groups were found in Venezuela. The Democrats yawned at the Cartels sending their people into the USA to kill, rape, and smuggle. The Democrats yawned about not vetting the thousands and thousands of criminals they allowed into the country. The Democrats said it was the Republicans fault for not signing on a bill to secure the border. Trump said "hold my beer" and secured the border without a bill. The Democrats yawn about the criminals and gangs taking over portions of our major cities. Trump said "hold my beer" The Democrats yawned when the Panamanians & China were cozying up with the canal. Trump said "hold my beer"

Back on pg 23 I noted that since the government didn't fall 'in a matter of weeks' we were going to open a pool on how long this thread would go on. SO MUCH response... But sadly, now that we're on page 32... we only have two folks left in the pool... And since the pool only went up to 10, we will return the money if/when we get past 10 pages...

At least he's sorta admitting that our economy is not great right now. He just thinks it's having zero effect on citizens. He's straying dangerously from the Liberal narrative that the economy is great and that Canadians have never had it so good. He better be careful. His masters will not be happy with him.

Ahem, Canadians are facing higher levels of food insecurity - Statistics Canada New report says ‘entrenched’ food bank use in B.C. is unsustainable | CBC News Food insecurity in Canada 2025 - Google Search Food insecurity is a growing crisis in Canada, with nearly one-quarter of the population experiencing it. Recent data from 2025 shows that approximately 10 million Canadians in provincial areas are affected, with 25.5% of households struggling to afford food And "In Canada, the number of women filing for bankruptcy has been increasing," women bankruptcy canada - Google Search @Goddess is right, you are wrong, if you'd learn to read on your own we wouldn't have to do this for you

1) Cocaine isn’t grown or made in Venezuela, if he’s truly aiming for the source it ain’t there 2) As you say the drugs that do get smuggled are distributed all around the world, Trump is suggesting it is primarily aimed at USA as part of someone’s sinister plot to destroy the USA. 3) The unarmed go/fast boats are easy to intercept and board, no need to destroy on sight and the evidence along with it 4) Following the boats to destination could take down entire global distribution networks in jurisdictions USA has influence over rather than a rogue state US has zero influence over. 5) The fact that Trump is massing invasion forces and carrying out special operations inside Venezuela while pardoning a convicted cocaine smuggling kingpin from Honduras just 1 year into his sentence proves this isn’t about cutting off Don Jr’s favourite party accessory after all.

Billionaires like to sell the notion that they make for better politicians because they don’t need anybody else’s money to win office and are also immune to such temptations while running the country. This has turned out not to be the case. Witkoff and Kushner are involved in peace negotiations that could make shedloads of money for themselves and other oligarchs on both sides. It’s just the quantity that’s different from your regular pol. Brown envelopes simply do not suffice. Forget about the funny languages, the history, army sizes, missile strikes, child kidnapping, blah, blah, blah and whether Ukraine survives or not - there are big, beautiful deals to be made on oil, gas and those trendy rare earth metals.

I dont know why Trump pardoned this guy. Im sure there's a reason. Just as im sure he signed the pardon by hand.

Where is that happening? Because our economy is not great right now, you think someone in Canada is "bankrupting Canadian women and starving out Canadian children"? Can you quote where I said anything even close to that? You reverting to Straw Man arguments doesn't help your case. Mirror, mirror. Sounds just like Trump's pathetic insults. Are you a 'stable genius' too?

More than 70% of health care spending is publicly funded through general tax revenues. The provinces and territories generate 78% of the cost, with the federal government providing the rest through the Canada Health Transfer (CHT). The original health care funding split between the federal and provincial governments was a 50/50 split Health care eats up 30% to 40% of provincial and territorial budgets, and those costs are expected to increase at an average annual rate of 5.2% over the next decade — much faster than projected revenues. Gentlemen, Universal Health Care in Canada is in jeopardy - unsustainable? However, Kanadians have seen the enemy and it is complacency - only themselves to blame.

I have no idea what you're on about, but you've never been much concerned about truth or facts. Indeed, just like Trump sabotaged the EPA with people who have no interest in environmental protection, and a secretary of Education specifically to dismantle the department of education, he put an anti-vax lunatic in charge of the FDA, who in turn staffed with like minded loons. Any responsible person in that role would have at least made a science based claim. Instead we get this weird press release designed to sow more FUD about vaccines. We're watching children die from classic diseases that were once eradicated because kooks now have an even bigger platform to spread FUD. It's a deadly dereliction of duty. Very hard to know what random shit you're talking about now, but with your track record for critical thinking, it's likely random internet conspiracy shit like this debunked nonsense: "A 13-year-old girl "is now in critical care in the hospital here in Halifax because her heart stopped right after she had a vaccine." Spoiler alert: didn't happen. Fake story. But kids do die at that age, some of them from COVID even. Some of them from other things. And some number of people undoubtedly suffered medical incidents following a vaccination. Post hoc ergo propter hoc. There is some risk to any medical intervention, and I have no doubt that there were extremely rare adverse reactions to these vaccines as there are to others. But the fact also remains that the vaccines are generally safe and effective, and indeed dramatically reduced individual risk and mortality. And that they saved millions of lives. Every medical intervention has a risk/benefit analysis, and in this case the benefit was massively and conclusively larger than any risk, to individuals as well as the general public. You will continue to deny this because of the aforementioned gap in critical thinking and will use the same busted arguments again, no doubt. But your misunderstandings won't change the facts.

Are we still doing this stupid, dishonest game where you pretend like Hegseth was not in the military on the front lines serving as an Officer in wartime? DURRRRRRRRRRRRRR i Am A lIbTaRd, HeGsEtH wAs JuSt A fOx NeWs HoSt DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Yes, anyone who believes a pathological liar making extreme claims without a shred of evidence (and mountains of contradictory evidence) is indeed very stupid. No ability to analyze a claim whatsoever. Those do be facts. Facts which you helpfully reaffirmed when you linked to a site that (basically) calls you stupid for believing what you believe--and indeed urges critical thinking as the remedy to such susceptibility. Full points for working up the courage to click on something with "school" in the URL though. You really are the gift that keeps on giving. 🤣 The survey shows a strong majority support the development of media literacy and critical thinking skills, with most Americans (67.9%) urging governments and institutions to invest in initiatives that address these problems. However, around half of respondents also believe in debunked conspiracy theories, such as that the 2020 U.S. federal election was stolen due to widespread fraud (49.8%). This belief was highest among millennials (66.9%) and lowest among baby boomers (35.1%).

OMFG WHAT TANKS THERE ARE NO TANKS - NO ATTACKS ON AMERICANS BY ANYONE You continually refuse to explain how any of these people are terrorists. Your dumbass analogy of the guys fuelling tanks RELIES ON the idea that they are still supporting attacks on Americans but in REALITY none of the Venezuelans are supporting any attacks. So its not like fuelling tanks at all. AT ALL. And then your next ignorant argument was to claim that the US military thousands of miles just to bomb the low-level guys who did minor jobs like “fuel tanks” when in reality they only did that to kill leaders and high value targets not the peasants who work for them. No they are not and it’s not “semantics” when will you MAGAs learn that words have meaning for a reason. You’re not a terrorist just because Donald Trump says you are. He doesn’t have free license to just murder who ever he pleases and make it legal by just calling them terrorists. And you continue to lie and misrepresent what I said which again proves you have no real argument. FACT: NO EVIDENCE HAS BEEN PRESENTED TO THE PUBLIC AND YOU KNOW IT For you to suggest that the fact that the military followed orders is evidence is beyond stupid even for you FACT: you continue to lie about what I said There’s an actual thing called war crimes, look it up. Not a distraction at all. The Iraq war, which was based on a President’s lies, is a valid rebuttal to your ridiculous claim that the military doesn’t carry out orders unless they’re justified so that’s “evidence” that Trump’s claims are true. That’s not a conspiracy. The president is commander in chief of the military. They follow his orders, they don’t refuse orders unless the President can persuade them they’re legitimate. Clearly you know nothing about the military. No, you and Trump are the liars Trump is singlehandedly responsible for these attacks because he is the one who concocted up this half-baked ridiculous story about America being targeted by these fictitious “narco-terrorists” and then he ordered the military to the coast of Venezuela to hunt them down This is his campaign that he dreamed up You are talking as if you think the US military just bumped into these people by chance or something. Are the people being killed local smugglers? Sure, maybe. Perhaps even probably. But they’re not “terrorists” and they’re not targeting USA. SO go ahead a keep lying that I’m claiming that they’re families on sailboats because you’re off your rocker and have no rational argument, everyone who reads this thread can see that. You’re not only ignorant about the war on terror you can’t even follow simple statements of fact. When ACTUAL terrorists targeted the USA or Americans at hime or abroad they were hunted down wherever they were hiding. YOUR so-called “narco-terrorists” are not actual terrorists by any stretch of the imagination and are not targeting USA or Americans. Genius, the problem isn’t with killing terrorists overseas it’s that the people Trump is targeting AREN’T TERRORISTS by any stretch of imagination. How many times does it need to be said????? JFC you really know nothing. Obama and Trumo don’t staybup ant night doing intelligence work finding target Obama says “find me Al-Qaeda targets”. The military finds the targets tells Obama they’re confident it’s legitimate and clean and Obama gives the green light. Obama doesn’t say “go bomb a wedding of innocent people and go bomb some US troops” Trump says” Go bomb some smugglers off the coast of Venezuela, I’ll tell the public these are “narco-terrorists” targeting America, my gullible supporters will believe anything I say. Those smugglers are criminals anyway so who cares.” Trump hand pick the target he relies on military to identify and if some were fishermen that’s on the military but the whole fake mission is on Trump. So to recap 1) You don’t know what Trump’s justification for these attacks is 2) You don’t know what the evidence for Trump’s claims of “narco-terrorists targeting America” is or how they even supposedly targeted America 3) You don’t know what a terrorist is 4) You don’t know what war crimes are 5) You don’t know anything about the Global War on Terror 6) You don’t know what my arguments are so you lie and make up straw men

If VAERS is worthless and pointless, what does it say about the Big Pharma machine that they forced an experimental vaccine on healthy people, including pregnant women and children which has always been considered medically unethical, with no way to track the results or monitor anything?

Per this link, I believe the Beowulf is the variant on offer: https://www.baesystems.com/en/article/bae-systems-teams-with-general-dynamics-land-systems-to-compete-for-canadas-dame-project I believe Beo is the armoured version, the “flat front” apparently allows for heavier modular frontal armour to be mounted and a v-shaped hull with crew compartment higher up, while the Viking’s long nose shown in your pic is better for amphibious operations, less water resistance and splashing (but both are amphibious). The Viking does look cooler though. And since this is for domestic mobility one would think they wouldn’t need armour but they did take the bv206 to Afghanistan so I suppose they’re just covering their bases. Edit: for all I know this announcement is just going to be about northern infrastructure or northern supply hubs or something it just come on the same day that Canada gets admitted to SAFE and Sweden was just here so I’m taking a shot in the sark. As I think about it, maybe it is an infrastructure thing. Or maybe Globaleye AWACS that I mentioned earlier. But it sounds like something good.

I reckon Truman, Kennedy, Johnson and Reagan won the Cold War. Nixon was an appeaser - a true peace-maker. ===== To his credit, Nixon managed peace in his time.

We must consider that Trump will try to drown out the murders of the fishermen by launching a war against Venezuela, so that these killings go unnoticed among many other victims. "Denounce him! He’s nothing but a rotten CIA degenerate

As always, with you, every allegation is an admission of guilt. JOH was railroaded with circumstantial evidence and the word of convicted felons gaining reduced sentences and Ulbricht ran a website for anonymous sales, not drugs. The drug sales were the responsibility of the individuals. Both were over reaches by the Biden admin. They had a proclivity for that.

You don't understand what she said either because she does not know what she said. She used terms incorrectly, just like you. Big words =/= big thoughts.

Canada reaches deal to join EU military procurement fund Canada has concluded negotiations to join the European Union’s military purchasing fund as the 27-member economic bloc ramps up defence spending, Ottawa says. Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government, however, is refusing to reveal the entrance fee it will have to pay for its membership in the Secure Action for Europe, or SAFE, program. As part of SAFE, Canada will be able to make joint weapons purchases with other EU countries to achieve savings through large-scale buying, and Canadian companies will be eligible to bid for contracts financed by the €150-billion fund…. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/article-canada-eu-military-procurement-fund-defence-spending/

Liberal and Conservative love for the 1-3% could have a lot to do with it. AI Overview Taxes on the wealthiest Canadians have generally gone down since 1990, primarily through reductions in personal income and capital gains tax rates that occurred in the late 1990s and early 2000s. We don't even make the top 17 countries with the highest tax rates.

She's a 10.0 until she opens her mouth. 100% bonerkill rate.

If RFK Jr wasn't breathing down their necks they probably never would have released this report, and the vax-induced deaths of children would forever stay on the backburner, never venturing past "conspiracy theory" status. Of course there were more than 10. 10 is a BS number thrown out there to admit that it happened, because it was impossible to deny forever, but it makes it sound extremely rare to the point where vax-apologists can claim that it was insignificant, and vax-pimps can plead ignorance. The fact remains that in Canada, the jabs did absolutely NOTHING to justify the vax-fascism.

oh look who's afraid to even mention who he's talking to. Coward I'm 100% right in every single thing I've said and you are unable to refute any of it. And you were the one that started with the insults. Not to mention that yet again you turned a perfectly normal thread discussing whether or not we should purchase a plane or trust the Americans into a crybaby tampon Fest whining about how Canada hates the military at a time when we've just increased funding to historic levels But as usual you start with the insults and then break down in tears if somebody dares to insult you back. But it's hardly surprising that you would run like a coward rather than address the simple fact that we can't trust America any further. Run away and high little boy, the men are talking. No wonder the military put tampons in the men's bathrooms

When lockdowns began dragging on, I posted a bunch of child psychologists and other child development experts who warned about this. The number of people on this board that attacked me and called me a conspiracy theorist and all kinds of names.....most here will never, ever, ever admit how damaging to children and teens this was. And how unnecessary.

My Lord, all I’m saying is that other countries are catching up. It’s not like we’ve suddenly become Zimbabwe. I’ve made many comments on health reform over the years and favour a properly mixed system. Neither party has brought that in. Harper had his chance.

............ read recently that it was the Nazi that bombed Pearl.

........... read recently on the ether that it was really the Nazi that bombed Pearl.

You don't seem to remember how many people were dying from Covid's first effects. Let me remind you: A LOT! But after a while Covid mutated into something less lethal. Apparently you would have preferred more deaths during that first wave? Americans died at 10 times the Canadian rate.

I don't think that murdering someone at the beginning of a supply chain is a legal, moral or ethical way to prevent consumers from getting something you'd rather they not have. Nor do I think it can be reasonably justified as combat. If there were drugs on the boats (and I don't believe that evidence has been produced) then who's to say the drugs weren't headed for other destinations? -- Well, I guess nobody is to say, since double-tap Hegseth murdered them. And I absolutely do think that party-boy Hegseth, the sharer of classified information on signal chats, is haphazard, reckless and careless. He's certainly not smart or thoughtful.

........a system that elects a person with charisma over character ........ deserves what it gets.

Our health care system is in shambles for two main reasons. The Trudeau government decided to expand Canada’s population at a rate that our health care system could not keep up with. The Trudeau government also enacted terrible economic policies, that restricted the economic growth necessary to properly fund the health care system capacity to handle the new population growth.

You're defeated again? Holy snoke you sure suck at this And yes, whenever you become an excessively emotional and start crying about it your grammar goes to hell for some reason. I'm sure it has something to do with your daddy issues I see that you've admitted defeat to taxme too. Just not your day is it?

They are the prime ingesters of CBC headlines, paid for by the Liberal party. They really have no clue what's happening in Canada. The Libs and the media keep telling them everything is great and they question nothing. Carney told them during his campaign that 👇 *this* 👇is not a problem. I've posted news articles about huge drug busts in other countries ie: like Australia and New Zealand, coming from Canada. But again - apparently we do not have a drug cartel problem in Canada. Big bust last week by the US FBI in New York with the whole Ryan Weddings affair, but hey - still not a problem to them. I don't know if they're just really really stupid or have their heads so far up Liberal a$$ that they can't see daylight. But Lib supporters are definitely the least informed people in Canada. With no desire to become informed, content to be spoon-fed government propaganda.

Ahhh yes, i forgot that you truly believe that repeating a lie makes it true

Just for a mo can we revisit Justin's decision to import 500K immigrants / year? Was that guy stupid, incompetent or both?
