  1. I don't think Canada will remain a hockey power 20 years from now. Hockey is too expensive for a majority of Canadian kids to play. Can blame this on the Liberals also!

  5. Hilarious. Too it takes 20 seconds of Googling to prove that (once again) you're completely and utterly full of shit: https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/11-402-x/2012000/chap/econo/econo01-eng.htm We started falling behind the US in productivity back in the 80's or earlier. https://www.canadaaction.ca/canadian-productivity-and-investment-falling-report

  6. 🤦‍♂️ Key there: "or run as an independent". Look, this is very simple. If individual MPs can't break ranks with their party, there's basically no point in having individual's names on the ballot. You just select a party, and then that party appoints a minion to follow leaderships' orders. The system was specifically and deliberately designed not to function this way. The whole point of our federal parliamentary system is regional representation.

  7. You can't appreciate anything that isn't leaning to the right. Okay, let's go with that he lied. 65% of Canadian's approve of Carney's leadership so it appears the masses don;t support your bias view. Now, if he had an approval rating in the 30's that would be embarrassing and of serious concern for his longevity. Don't you think...?

  9. Nope. You are bullshitter. So you’re saying you’re a bullshitter who makes up false claims that in no way resemble anything I said. Wrong. Wrong. Productivity has been falling for DECADES. In fact since NAFTA it has gotten even worse under EVERY GOVERNMENT. It is because the more we integrate with USA, the more US companies control our economy, buying up our companies, poaching our talent, controlling the high value economic activity and intellectual property and leaving us with the low value grunt work. What Canadians are only now understanding is that for the past 30+ years the most productive economies have been defined by: Companies who OWN the factory not the people who work in them Companies who OWN user data, not those who supply user data for free Companies who OWN technology patents, not those who researched the technology and shared it for free Companies who OWN technology terms of use, not those who forced to accept them on a take-it-or-leave-it basis The people who COLLECT software license and subscription fees, not those who pay them Companies who sell HIGH-MARGIN FINISHED PRODUCTS at PREMIUM prices, not LOW-MARGIN COMMODITIES at WHOLESALE DISCOUNT prices Companies who CONTINUOUSLY GROW their enterprise by reinvesting profits, not companies that deliberately choose to stop growing pay out their profits as dividends The more we integrated with USA, the more US companies and policy shaped us into playing the latter of each of these relationships and our short-sighted business and government leaders went along with it because to do otherwise was considered risky and because they don’t feel the consequences of those decisions directly You know there are long term studies of cancer patients, do you think that means they were commissioned by the PM and that they’re the totality of everything the government is doing to treat cancer and that it’s one and only purpose is to do nothing until the study is complete? Sorry, once again you don’t know what you’re talking about. Like I said you don’t know what you’re talking about. You are dead dumb and blind to reality, you only get your news from conservative sources that ignore politically inconvenient news and amplify / exaggerate convenient news. The economy has improved since Carney took office. Most of our economic woes have been inflicted by Trump. You blame Carney for the results of Trump’s economic attacks and Trump’s refusal to deal even as you know deals with Trump are worthless and those who rushed and made deals with him are now regretting it due to the recent Supreme Court ruling. Oil companies have been given the regulatory regime they wanted on a silver platter, they’re not investing because tar sand crude has limited long-term returns, they want the government to build the infrastructure at taxpayer expense and let them keep the profits. And they want climate denial / zero GHG regulation like they have in their third world operations. Barriers to interprovincial trade have come down massively. All federal barriers have been removed. Ontario has made deals with multiple provinces as have others.

  10. I went to sleep just as the game began, fully expecting to wake up to a hard fought Canadian victory between the two best (NHL sourced) teams. Congratulations to the US team for winning the gold medal for the first time since 1980, something Canada has accomplished nine times, more than any other nation. Canada's silver medal is still a big deal and adds to the total of 16 (9 Gold, 4 Silver, 3 Bronze) men's hockey medals since 1920...that means Canada has been in 13 gold medal games. Yes, I understand that the gold medal standard matters so much more to Canadians, and it is bad luck that Sidney Crosby was out with an injury.

  11. Sorry kiddo I know it hurts but that was his only response So you're saying that not only did carney not have a very good response, he had absolutely no response and it's just letting the economy go on autopilot I love that you think that somehow makes him look better It is whether he ordered it or not It doesn't matter if it's bad or good. We have a problem right this very second and have for several years now. This has been commented on by economists at great length. Thanks to many of Justin Trudeau's policies we are severely underproductive So any response that takes 15 years to produce is of no value to us to solve the problem even if that report produces miraculous work He has done nothing. Not a single thing And it shows. Money is fleeing Canada faster than it ever has. Our trade deficit is going up. Our job numbers are worse. Our GDP growth is worse. Every metric you could possibly choose is worse. Our own Canadian oil companies are saying they will not invest in Canada because of the current regulatory environment. Inter provincial trade has actually gotten worse since he took over. Tariffs have gone up. It looks like we aren't getting a trade deal with united states or if we do it's going to be a horrible one. All he has done is make it worse. He hasn't done a single thing to make productivity or the economy better. Not one thing. And now his response to an immediate productivity crisis is a 15-year study Wake up. If Canada cannot afford you to be blind and stupid for another 10 years like you were with Trudeau

  12. There is no reason why we still need these agencies. They are a relic of a different time and are of no value. They are also profoundly unfair to those accused, since unlike the accuser, they get no free legal representation and the 'judges' are in almost all cases people way over on the fringe left and tend to side with claimants. And yet they can make hefty punishments against those who offend their sensibilities. Witness that guy in BC who was fined $750k because he believed there is only two genders. And who laid the charge against him? The BC Teachers union. Which is another organization that should not exist.

  16. Krytonite to you...AKA, facts. GPT-4o mini Yes, Mark Carney holds approximately 91% of his investment portfolio in U.S.-headquartered companies. This information comes from recent disclosures he made while serving as Prime Minister of Canada, which revealed that out of 574 stock holdings, the majority are based in the United States. This high concentration of investments in the U.S. indicates a significant reliance on the U.S. market, which aligns with the larger trend of Canadian investments increasingly flowing south. It reflects both personal investment choices and broader economic patterns between Canada and the United States.

But it's America, even if it did that the junkies would have to steal even more to pay for their legal drugs.

  20. For 150 days . During that time he's going to have to convince enough republicans to stick with it and that's what his concern obviously is. A lot of republicans are concerned about losing their seats and states that are significantly impacted by some of these tariffs Still that's a fair minute of time to work with and as long as he can find something that each of them want he should be able to negotiate support

Biden said poor kids could be just as smart as white kids. The democrats keep telling us blacks are too stupid to get an ID. They also said blacks don't know how to use the internet. Yawn away. We know own you ate used to the left being blatantly racist. Why else would you believe that you need to be the white savior of the black race?

  27. Its more like your delusions of fascism and racism and your exaggeration of such. This what you all do. Your politicians create "sanctuary" cities where law enforcement is forbidden from helping ICE and then blame ICE for the fact rioters get out of hand and the agents have to protect themselves. Renee Good get shot for literally hitting a cop with her car and you act like SHE'S the victim. She would still be alive and with her family if she just let herself get arrested. You liberals act like destructive animals and then get surprised when there are consequences. They aren't just sitting there with their signs and chants, they are throwing things, attacking the agents and doing whatever they can to obstruct Ice from doing their jobs. They are literally letting pedophiles run free by stopping them from getting arrested.

  29. That's what you say whenever you know I'm right. I accept your admission of defeat Awww..... wow you mist REALLY have thought i was right . Nope, right and that's why you couldn't refute it Nope. We actually have been keeping pace with the us and were about number 3 in the world right up till about 2017. Then it started to go sideways Nope. That's all pretty much bullshit. GDP per capita which is one of the main measures of productivity has been climbing steadily for most countries. And wages of reflected that, in fact in Canada prior to 2015 real wages have climbed at about 1% higher than inflation. Which means every year people on average had more money to spend even after taking inflation into account This is the only thing he's doing kiddo. And it's a 15-year study And guess what, we treat cancer patients today. We don't wait 15 years to treat them. So why is the government waiting 15 years to deal with this problem Very obviously I know considerably more than you The economy has gotten considerably worse since carney took over. Nobody disputes that, well nobody's sane. Some argue that he needs more time to be able to fix anything but nobody argues that the economy has gotten worse. In fact not only has our economy gotten worse but we're at the absolute bottom of the G7 by a mile. This is all been posted before. Lying to yourself won't change this And you are just out and out lying when you claim that oil companies have the regulatory system they want. They have come right out and said and no uncertain terms that they will not operate under these regulatory conditions and many industry experts have explained exactly why You're a liar. Which would make you an average liberal except for the fact that the person you lie to most is yourself. And that's sad You need to wake up and start being honest with yourself. If you need to lie to make your point it's not a good point. And I mean some of those were pretty massive Whoppers like claiming that the oil industry is really happy and excited about the current regulatory circumstances. There's a tanker band and an anti oil pipeline Bill still in place at this moment

  32. ThaTh That video details some of the 100s of millions of dollars that the STATE gives groups to PROTEST FOR LIBERAL ideals. He goes on to make all the data available in this X feed: This is "yuge!" It means that the left in California is using state funding as campaign money. Every democrat in the state house and senate as well as Gavin Newscum and his staff could be potentially envolved in the biggest campaign finance scandal the world has ever seen.

  33. You'd think someone would have done something about the left by now. Make it illegal or something. You make it sound like an organized cartel or ring or something. I never said friends. Here's the statement the media reported getting the family of Kylie Smith “From what we are hearing, we are at least the third family of the deceased to be harassed or threatened by people from their past since this awful tragedy took place,” https://archive.ph/vKYo8 Other reports say it's people known to the families.

If it weren't for the curling this would have been a complete team blowout basically. Very shameful performance. And it's not like they weren't out playing the Americans a little bit they just couldn't make their opportunities happen Two. Our women lost as well to the Americans This is one of our worst Olympic years. Might as well call it. it is what it is

  41. He was Oh but i can Carney was told not to meet with Brooksfield agents by ethics commissioner - Google Search "The Advice to Avoid Meetings: According to reports, the Ethics Commissioner personally advised Carney that he should not be meeting with Brookfield representatives. Contradictory Meetings: Despite this advice, records indicated that a senior Brookfield executive (Sam Pollock, CEO of Brookfield Infrastructure) met with Carney in Washington, D.C., in May 2025, and another executive (Justin Beber, COO of Brookfield) met with him in Ottawa in October 2025." Ooopsie doodle!!! You fcuked up again and I was entirely right and you are entirely a twat LOLOLOL The funny bit is this was widely reported just a short time ago, you should have known this. I guess 15 year olds don't bother reading the news much Not only do I always provide links which prove you wrong, but on top of it on the rare occasions when you provide any links to anything it inevitably proves me right. As was the case here again Don't you ever get tired of looking like a complete uneducated buffoon? I mean it would have taken you one second to do a search to realize what I was saying was true

  45. "As democracy is perfected, the office [of president] represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people … On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright m0ron." Henry Louis Mencken 1920 Because: “There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” Isaac Asimov No wonder Trump said he loves the 'poorly educated'.
