I think Trump is mentally unbalanced and unstable. He changes from one minute to the next. His actions have nothing to do with God. Where in the Bible does it say anything about the kinds of things Trump is doing or claiming? Multinational companies have existed for decades. That's just how the world economy worked up until now. Free trade was a mutually beneficial thing which he has now rejected. I don't think Trump understand a simple thing like that. It will not be easy to end multinational corporations and bring them to America only. We will find out how that works for him. The world's leaders strongly disagree with his thinking. After he was elected, he suddenly turned against all the western countries and blamed them for the American economy. It is bizarre. But we in Canada must not wait to find out what he plans next. We must establish our own self-sufficient country and not be so dependent on America any more. We had a great trading relationship for many years, but that is all gone now. Nothing is the same now. We can't go back. You need help man.

Your claims are false. You are pretending he is a MAGA but what he has said has nothing to do with Trump or MAGA. What you are claiming is a pure Liberal/NDP lie that the gullible like you swallow. Pierre Poilievre has answered questions, has given his plan, has explained why he doesn't take a security clearance which would prevent him from speaking about foreign interference. That would mean a security clearance for a party leader is useless. He has in fact stated repeatedly his clear priorities. You're just willfully ignoring them and making up phony allegations.

And we will get more of the same with Carney. He has been a globalist climate warrior for the U.N., WEF, Vatican, and other organizations and was a close adviser to Trudeau.

I don't believe in man-made climate change because man's contribution to the total CO2 in the atmosphere is extremely small and not likely to be a contributing factor. There are other things that cause climate change as well. So Canada contributes billions of dollars to other countries to fight the war on climate change and to help them shift to green economies. What a farce! All of this won't make any difference to climate change. Canada could have been shipping liquid natural gas (LNG) for years to many countries to help them switch to cleaner energy. For example, many countries burn a lot of coal to produce electricity. This could have been replaced with liquid natural gas which is relatively clean, but our Trudeau government prevented Canada from building pipelines and various other infrastructure. That left Canada is a weaker position economically and deprived the world of a good source of natural gas. Meanwhile other countries developed their natural gas reserves and are selling them internationally.

We can agree on that, it is a "nobrainer". No brain that is to vote liberal. Sorry, I just couldn't resist that.

The years of Liberal reckless spending has compromised our ability to fight the tariff war. As this article correctly points out, Canada may face tax increases in order to deal with the tariff war and lay offs. "She said that having been overruled by Trudeau on keeping the federal deficit to $40.1 billion for the 2023-24 fiscal year – it came in at $61.9 billion, 54% above the government’s own target – Canada lacked the fiscal fire power to fight U.S. President Donald Trump’s 25% tariffs on Canada effectively." GOLDSTEIN: Reckless Liberal spending compromised our ability to fight tariff war Trudeau did this to Canada and now he walks away scott free with a big pension.

Nobody is sinless except Jesus. If you think you're perfect and will go to heaven without being saved, you are sadly mistaken. If you are an unsaved sinner and think you can judge others, you are sadly mistaken. As the Bible says "all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God". Nobody gets into heaven or receives eternal life in the fallen state. The only way is to be born again so your sins are forgiven. That doesn't mean you will be perfect. Nobody in this world is. If you are waiting to see the perfect person, you will never see it. Determining what you believe on the basis of what you see in other people is a hopeless effort. Truth is not based on what you see in others. Truth is what God spoke in his word, the KJV Bible.

I assume you're talking about Trump and his MAGA supporters. You seem to be on a different wavelength. You are confused. I am not advocating Trump or anything to do with him. That has nothing at all to do with what I am telling you. Nothing to do with the Bible telling us all are fallen corrupt sinners and need to be born again. You ignore the Bible (KJV) at your own peril. The Bible and salvation has nothing to do with Trump or politics. "23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: 25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; " Romans 3:23-25 KJV

Not exactly sure what you mean. Man migrated to many parts of the world over time. The Bible is a spiritual book. You cannot understand it by natural man thinking. You must ask God to give you a spiritual mind. It cannot be discerned by the spirit of the world. You can only know the things of God by the Spirit of God.

Just another reason Canada is 62 billion dollars in debt. "Over 2015-2021, the Government of Canada delivered $2.65 billion in international climate finance to developing countries. Canada’s climate finance commitment prioritized climate change adaptation and mitigation efforts, the mobilization of private sector capital for climate action, and the provision of support to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) institutions and mechanisms." Canada’s $2.65 Billion International Climate Finance Commitment - Canada.ca However, this report doesn't say how much they gave from 2021 to 2025. Could be billions of dollars more. " Canada announces $450 million for the Green Climate Fund, the world’s largest dedicated climate change fund From: Environment and Climate Change Canada News release July 12, 2023 – Brussels, Belgium Today, ahead of the seventh Ministerial on Climate Action (MoCA7), the Honourable Steven Guilbeault, Minister of Environment and Climate Change, on behalf of the Honourable Harjit S. Sajjan, Minister of International Development and Minister responsible for the Pacific Economic Development Agency of Canada, announced a $450 million contribution to the second replenishment of the Green Climate Fund (GCF), the world’s largest dedicated climate change fund and a critical funding mechanism of the Paris Agreement. This contribution is a 50 percent increase from Canada’s 2019 pledge to the GCF’s first replenishment. This funding, which is a part of Canada’s $5.3 billion climate finance commitment, will directly support developing countries’ clean energy transitions and climate-resilient sustainable development as more extreme climate impacts are being felt around the globe. Through its contribution to the GCF, Canada is helping lead the clean energy transition and meet the 1.5 degrees Celsius climate target. Funding announced today could, for example, enable the advancement of clean and renewable energy projects in Indonesia and across the Southeast Asia region, aiding countries as they drive transition from coal-fired power. Helping achieve this transition is a key element of Canada’s support for the region as part of its Indo-Pacific Strategy. Following the adoption of the Kunming-Montréal Global Biodiversity Framework, Canada welcomes the GCF’s leadership in supporting developing countries’ actions to conserve, restore and protect nature and biodiversity. In 2022, Minister Guilbeault and Jennifer Morgan, German State Secretary and Special Envoy for International Climate Action, published the Climate Finance Delivery Plan Progress Report, which outlines the steps contributors are taking to meet the goal this year, and are continuing the dialogue with other countries to ensure their commitments are upheld. " Canada announces $450 million for the Green Climate Fund, the world’s largest dedicated climate change fund - Canada.ca Can we expect this kind of spending to continue if Carney wins? Yes, I think we can. The reason is because he was a key figure in the U.N. climate change war and other international organizations. He has been a committed fighter against climate change. This should make all the Greta Thunberg followers happy. They could care less about the economy and the damage to their country as long as they think everything is being put into the their war on climate change. Incidentally I don't believe man can control the climate and Canada's emissions are miniscule compared with China and the rest of the world.

Yes, God has chosen to give man revelation in two ways: 1. By nature we observe God's creation. 2. By his special revelation, we read or hear his written word, in English, the King James Bible. Only this written word gives us the gospel of Jesus Christ and how to avoid hell and go to heaven for eternity.

Big difference between animals and humans. "26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. " Genesis 1:26-28 KJV As you can see God created man in his image. Not physically, but in a certain sense, with the powers of reason for one thing and with a soul and a spirit. So man is a special creation of God. God loves man and that's why God created man as his image. That is why we should not think of man as just another animal. We are not an animal. We have been given a soul that will live forever. We have also been given free will to decide whether we will believe God as he has spoken to us in his written revelation. Then he sent his Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins, because God loves us and he offers in return eternal life if we will believe on his Son and accept him as our Lord and Savior. "16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. {reproved: or, discovered} 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. " John 3:16-21 KJV

We can see the world is divided between two classes of people. Those who believe in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior and are part of God's kingdom and those who do not, but are deceived by the prince of the power of the air, the Devil otherwise known as Satan. He has a vast army who follow him as well, called demons. Those who are deceived are still in an unregenerate state (spiritually dead) and need to be born again according to the gospel of John. I try to be patient and explain what this is all about. Read the New Testament with an open mind and you will learn the details and hopefully become born again.

I am not disagreeing with that idea. There is truth in it. But the reason human nature (or as you put it, our intelligence) has a tendency to lie is because of the fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. They were our first parents and therefore we inherited the fallen, corrupt nature. That includes the tendency to lie. On top of that, there are demons who are at work deceiving people. We should realize there is a material world in which we live and there is a spiritual unseen world as well. Turn to God in Jesus Christ and ask him to reveal these things to you in his written revelation, in English, the King James Bible/Authorized Version. If you become born again by faith in Jesus Christ, you will not be totally under the control of these demonic beings. God is far more powerful than Satan and his demons. You can even download the King James Bible. Search for it, download it and install it and you can refer to it anytime and read it as much as you like. There are free copies available on the internet. Of course it is wise to have a hard copy of the Bible. Amazon is a good source. But be sure it is the King James Bible; modern versions are corrupt.

Sounds a bit like you have been deceived by the Prince of Liars, Satan, also called a serpent in Genesis 3. Seriously, I would recommend you start studying the King James Bible, which was originally written by the prophets and apostles that God inspired. It is full of evidence that it was inspired by God. It is no fairy tale. I have often heard that claim by people who are spiritually dead. You need to seek the truth from God, not from the Prince of this world, the Devil. He will deceive you as long as he can and try to get you to accept his lies. Read the gospel of John and learn how Jesus Christ is God and died for our sins. He was crucified and three days later rose from the dead. He was then seen by many eye witnesses proving he is who he said he is. All of the apostles died as martyrs, except for one, the Apostle John, for what they witnessed when they saw Jesus Christ. Do you really think they would have died for a lie or fairy tale? Of course not. "10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. 11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. 13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. " 1 John 1:10-13 KJV
