How stoopid are you that you even ask this question? Seriously.

Of course he is. Nothing is the Liberals fault and anyways, it's all because of Harper (and Trump), and Carney says affordability is now the best it's been in over a decade.

Toronto-Quebec City High-Speed Rail
Goddess replied to 500channelsurfer's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
This isn't a "nation building" project. It's a vanity project that will service only a small amount of people. It's to curry votes in ON and Quebec before the by-elections. 90% of these projects go WAAAAAAY over budget. Look at California, look at Spain. Canada has too many real problems that need $100 billion. We could eliminate poverty and stop 25% of the population of starving, with a fraction of that money. Build energy projects, which is what Carney campaigned on. When we get back on our feet economically, then ya - high speed rail would be great. -

Blanchet is against it too. But you won't hear that on CBC, only Poilievre's view. -
Really good interview with Poilievre on the Diary of a CEO podcast (which is an excellent podcast, BTW). Very different from the Rogan interview. Less talk about MMA 🤣. More focus on who he is as a person and his views on governing. Baloney. Even Carney admitted he wanted into government so he could affect policies that would make investors rich off taxpayer dollars.

Here's what I think is going on with this weird situation. Brookfield invested heavily in "biofuel" for airplanes. While in the UK, Carney pressured the Uk to adopt legislation that forced airlines to buy a percentage of this biofuel. (I think it's called SAF.) The SAF is 2-10X more expensive than regular jet fuel. Then he did an interview where he was asked if he was thinking about getting into politics. He said he was, because then you can force policies that will make tons of money for investors. Air Canada signed a "sorta" agreement that they would go along with the biofuel thing, but the CEO added addendums to the agreement stating that they would do it, but only if it didn't interfere with business and profits. The CEO also publicly stated that he expected to have "his reputation ruined" if he didn't go along with the biofuel thing. Then Carney gets in as Canada's PM. Leads the charge to fire the Air Canada CEO. Now he can get a CEO in there that will agree to the biofuel thing. And put in legislation to force it. Voila! Carney makes a metric f*%kton of money. And Canadians can no longer afford to fly.

Most of them are not even deals. "Pinkie promises".

Absolutely astonishing. Liberal cheerleaders truly believe higher & higher taxes make products and services more affordable for everyday Canadians.

CBC drivel.

Canadians have survived, barely, a decade of political abuse of power. And then voted in the exact same incompetent, corrupt government. It's baffling.

LOL The party that said Canada has no values or identity, that wants to make Canada into the first "post-national" state, is bringing in masses of Indians to the point that entire cities are now just like being in India and just recently said, "Muslim values are Canadian values." Have you had a good look at what's going on in 57 Muslim-ruled countries around the world? Riiiiiiiiight. I don't think it's social media, although it clearly plays a role, as the policies of each party are exactly opposite. Either Canada needs industry and we become more industry friendly, as Conservatives' policy is or we continue down the road of de-industrialization, as Liberals and NDP want. There is no in-between there. Either we curb immigration and vett people who want in and act on fake claims or we continue importing India and letting criminals from drug cartels and terrorist groups into the country. There is no in-between there. Either we want a transparent government who respects the Charter or we want a government who continually fights to hide documentation, prorogues any time they get close to losing the ability to hide corruption and fights to the Supreme Court to have the ability to declare War Measures any time they want, for any reason they want. There is no in-between there. Either we want a government who cultivates pride in Canada and its accomplishments and history or we want a government that continually portrays Canada as a genocidal, colonist, settler, "white people don't belong here and need to pay for the sins of their ancestors". There is no in-between there. Either we want accountability in how tax dollars are spent or we don't. There is no in-between there. Either we want rapists and pedos and child grooming gangs roaming our streets or we don't. There is no in-between there. It's the policies that are polarizing.

It was the weirdest thing I've seen on this board in a long time.
-
That's not what your link said. No, it wasn't. Like all Liberals, you are literally blind to any information or sentence that doesn't agree with you.

Every country facing $100/barrel oil: Australia: fuel tax cut in half, free transit Italy: emergency fuel tax cut Spain: fuel tax relief Ireland: fuel tax relief Portugal: fuel tax relief Canada: raised industrial carbon tax & alcohol taxes

That's talking about how tariffs affected the supply chain. It doesn't explain how increasing taxes on every level of the food supply chain and on everything else that I mentioned above HAS NO EFFECT on food pricing, as you claim. I don't really expect an answer from you after watching you insist for days and pages & pages & pages that the only thing making Canadian youth unhappy is.......social media. After the article you posted expressly said it was NOT the main cause and was actually a very small part of a THEORY, which they admitted had limitations.
-
Well, he did admit he's only here to tell people off because it gives him some kind of emotional relief. Sad, really.
-
Apparently, LinkyDink thinks you can just say whatever here and when asked for proof or links or anything - tell people to look it up themselves. Where's @Michael Hardner, isn't he the link police?
-
So you can't explain it. Okee Dokee.
-
Our food inflation is the highest in the G7 - double and triple everyone else's. Are you able to explain your theory that increasing taxes at every level of the food chain DOES NOT affect food pricing?
-
Also today: Beer, wine & other alcohol go up 2% CPP & EI increase on payroll taxes Carney gets a $17,600 raise MP's get an $8,800 raise Ministers get a $13,000 raise That miniscule "tax cut" was eaten up a looooong time ago and Canadians are going even further into the hole.
-
The industrial carbon tax rises - again - today - to $110 per tonne. That's 120% higher than just a few years ago. And it will continue to rise every year. This will amplify cost pressures across every link in the food supply chain.

She has some issues, I think from being abused where she was before. When I get home from work, she runs back and forth from me to hiding, until she knows I'm in a good mood and not going to hurt her. But I'm earning her trust, and she is very affectionate, I think she knows I saved her. She is also a bit saucy. I'm training her to stay out of my plants and not knock things off shelves. when I tell her NO and GET DOWN, she will do it, but looks at me, annoyed, like, "You're not real mom!"
