  1. Your dementia is really bad today. The industry execs said how they were going to that. That's why I posted the video of them explaining it. Look, it's obvious you didn't and won't watch any of the committee hearing on it. You're not interested in what the 4 execs from 4 different companies had to say. So maybe you should really just STFU. You're really looking stoopid.
  2. So the 4 industry execs at committee were lying? Because you lived 5 miles away from Cavalier when you were growing up in the horse & buggy days? Holy fuque. You're hilarious. In a "Too bad about his dementia" sorta way. 🤣
  3. What does that have to do with anything? I grew up 5 miles from a mall. WTF is the matter with you? I'm guessing dementia. And quite likely a full diaper.
  4. Ya, it is. Carney's predictions have all been wrong. Here and in the UK. That's fact. If you want to re-write history, that's your own delusion.
  5. You know even less about it. Watch the committee meeting. Maybe you'll learn something. You've been proved wrong over & over. You can't admit it. Not my problem.
  6. it's pretty obvious you want to believe Carney when he said "Affordability is the best it's been in a decade." There's no facts that will change your mind. Carney can lie to you and you're on it like a fly on 💩.
  7. And I'm only trying to show you that X can be a good source of information because I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt that you're just a very old boomer whose main goal every day is trying not to shit his pants and that maybe you don't understand how X works. Like there's CBC and CTV articles posted there that don't hit the nightly news.
  8. You can follow all the news outlets on X. Here's an example, you can follow even according to the city you're in: I want LinktheDink to explain why following CTV on X is WRONG, but watching them on TV is OK.
  9. No, she doesn't. that's just what the CBC is telling you. She posts her messages AND UPDATES to Albertans on X and I watch them, yes. BECAUSE CBC DOESN'T COVER THEM. I need you to explain why following Danielle Smith on X is........WRONG.
  10. You're being ridiculous. The videos above are of THE INDUSTRY EXECUTIVES TESTIFYING AT COMMITTEE MEETINGS. YOU WILL NOT SEE THIS ON CBC. So what does it matter if the committee meetings are on YouTube government channels or X government channels, like the MPs who sit in those committees. Your rejection of this information because it's not on CBC - WHO WILL NEVER SHOW YOU WHAT'S HAPPENING IN COMMITTEE MEETINGS - is just retarded. For everyone else - this last standing committee meeting on the mould, tool & die industry had 4 executives from 4 different companies. Their issues are common to all other industries across Canada. I know this because I had to deal with the tariff/countertariff thing at my job and that small business had to close. The exec from Cavalier used as an example - the US tariff on a $244,000 tool is $1500. The Canadian government - Carney - added countertariffs that are actually PUNITIVE to Canadian industry and they added a whopping $36,000 for countertariffs. Carney has no fuquing clue what he's doing and worse - he clearly doesn't care because he's doing fuque all at working out trade with the US. Do you not realize how critical this is? STOP WATCHING THE GODDAMN CBC AND START PAYING ATTENTION.
  11. He's not. Alberta is doing their own thing now. Just like other industries in Canada, such as the Tool & Die industry I talked about, are realizing they are going to have to save themselves. Carney is doing fuque all.
  12. In that Committee meeting the head of the Tool & Die industry in Canada estimates that they have about 3-6 months left and then the industry will die in Canada. And industries do not come back. Meanwhile, Carney is jetting off all over the world signing pinkie promises for crumb deals that specifically state there is no obligation on either side to fulfill anything. For gawd's sake - READ THEM. Sorrynotsorry, but this guy needs to get to work. NOW. Industry needs timelines. They need assurances. And almost every industry in Canada right now has said Carney is not giving that to them because he refuses to talk with the US. And they've all said, they cannot hang on much longer. Every other country has figured out a way to deal with Trump. Carney campaigned on this. His record is that of an economic Grim Reaper and so far, he's continuing that role in Canada.
  13. U of T economist, Josef Steinberg responds: "I get that this elbows-up crap plays well politically within Canada, but as Kevin A. Bryan, Chief Economist, CDL Toronto states, it's "economic malpractice." Our physical proximity to the US isn't a weakness---it's one of our most valuable endowments.
  14. Carney's budget update won't reflect national financial pain | Financial Post “There’s a scene in the 1988 comedy The Naked Gun where Leslie Nielsen’s Lt. Frank Drebin waves his arms in front of a fireworks factory that has just exploded and calmly tells the horrified crowd, ‘Nothing to see here, please disperse.’” “I’ve often thought about that scene as I’ve watched Mark Carney’s government handle the federal budget process. Behind Drebin, chaos; in front of him, reassurances. The gap between the two is the joke.” That gap is becoming harder to ignore. During the Liberal Party’s coronation of Carney as leader, he promised to split the federal budget into operating and capital accounts - “a deceptive practice with a long history of failure.” As expected, the definition of capital became “ridiculously broad,” allowing routine spending to be reclassified to make the operating budget look great! The Parliamentary Budget Officer noticed, calling it “overly expansive” and estimating capital spending was overstated by “roughly 30 per cent — or $94 billion.” Under a more realistic approach, “the ‘day-to-day operating balance’ would remain in deficit every year through 2029-30.” And the fiscal anchor? “The PBO also pegged the probability that Carney’s deficit-to-gross-domestic-product anchor held at just 7.5 per cent. That isn’t a fiscal anchor; it’s a fiscal wish.” At the same time, the government reshaped the budget process — “moving the budget cycle from the spring to the fall…without a parliamentary study and debate.” That matters because “a fall budget forecast is likely to be less reliable.” Even the timing raises questions. “It’s worth noting that April 28 is two days before the personal tax filing deadline…You could not design worse timing.” Then comes the messaging support. When these changes were introduced, “this was accompanied by [two] tidy International Monetary Fund (IMF) comments crowing about the so-called positives…” That pattern continued, with recent IMF comments describing Canada as “the cleanest dirty shirt.” “Three quotes of IMF praise in six months.” And with a spring update on April 28? “I’m expecting a fourth one on April 29. The fireworks should be great.” All while the message remains: “building the strongest economy in the G7.” But the data tells a different story. “Canada saw a net capital outflow of more than $1 trillion — the largest capital exodus in Canadian history.” “For every dollar in, two dollars left.” Which brings us back to Drebin. “Operating and capital split? Nothing to see here. Budget cycle adjusted without parliamentary study? Please disperse.” “A fiscal anchor with a 7.5 per cent probability of holding? Move along.” “The government is waving its arms and telling Canadians not to look.” And in the end: “The difference between The Naked Gun and Carney’s fiscal strategy is that one of them is knowingly funny.”
  15. Wow. Me, making him a political figure? Ummmmm, your Carney God made him a political figure by featuring him in an "Elbows Up" commercial and then last Sunday by using a figurine he gave Carney as a prop. You should be asking why Carney is making him a political figure.
  16. The people and groups I follow on X are the direct links to the information and industries. I find it very ironic that you only listen to CBC news, which sooooo much has come out about their lack of honest coverage, and then you accuse others of fake information. Also you pay zero attention to what is happening in committee meetings and that's where the real work of government is. For instance, in the recent Standing Committee on Industry & Technology, - which I watched on the government's own YouTube channel for committees, the head of metallurgical manufacturing in Canada said that it's obvious the Liberal government is not negotiating with the US on their behalf and they are going to send their own delegation to Washington to do what needs to be done. You won't see that on CBC. But that is a significant statement from an entire industry in Canada. I also watched quite a lot of the committees on Housing and the one on Immigration (the one after the scathing Auditor General's report.) Had you watched the committee on Housing, you wouldn't be here arguing with Fox about how affordable housing is in Canada. Instead, you get your talking points from CBC, who are paid to tell you that everything is great and the Liberals are doing a fabulous job. That same committee talked extensively about how the government failures on housing and immigration has affected young people. And it wasn't blamed on social media use, FYI. So your constant jabs at me about X and YouTube don't affect me. You can't shame me on this. You try every day to shame me into becoming just as stoopid as you are and you can't. You simply can't. It's YOU who should be ashamed. You are willfully ignorant and deliberately misinformed. You don't get to outright reject videos of WHAT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING IN GOVERNMENT just because they aren't on your preferred social media medium. And you're a complete id10t is you still believe you're getting anything close to the truth of what's going on in Canada by watching CBC and parroting their narrative.
  17. The paperboy warned the Liberals, under Carney's economic advisory, that printing massive amounts of money would lead to inflation. Carney said it wouldn't. The paperboy did a whole video interview at the time of regular people - farmers, 9-5 workers, businesspeople, retail workers - who all said the same thing. The "expert" economist with all the degrees was wrong and everybody else was right. Even the farmers are smarter than Carney. 🤣
  18. I have some crayons and construction paper left over from when the grandbabies visited, if you need them. I think you're gonna need them.
  19. Liberal supporters are mostly id10ts who either can't or refuse to understand very basic concepts. I'm kind of done mincing my words and giving them the benefit of the doubt. Their stupidity is dangerous and it's increasingly putting people at risk. From "men can be women" to "borders are racist" to "jail sentences don't reduce crime" to "let pedos & rapists out on the streets because they had a hard childhood" to "everyone who disagrees with me is a Nazi" and more..... These ideas aren't just stupid. When they become national policy, they get people hurt and killed, including women & children. Id10ts at best. Wicked at worst. Quickly closing in on wicked.
  20. I've watched you argue for pages & pages & pages that Canadian youth are unhappy only because of social media use and that life is just as affordable now as it was at any other time in Canada's history. So, not "can't". "Won't."
  21. Other countries would consider it an asset to live next door to the US and have it as a trading partner. Carney is now framing it as our biggest weakness. And the clapping seals go "Arf! Arf! Arf!"
  22. Everyone knows Meyers lives in the US.
