  1. Most Canadians don't care about a politician's religion, as long as they don't bring it to the office. Quebec may be Catholic but most of the country isn't.
  2. So look at other sources. Are you saying Miller didn't actually say those things and ABC is lying when they quote him? He is the senior advisor to the President. He is the Whitehouse. FFS you guys will excuse anything Trump does. Talk about a cult, you are unbelievable. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0qgz18glljo https://apnews.com/article/habeas-corpus-trump-migrants-deportations-constitution-28a598363d03bfc9448b5132c72f2b3d https://www.fox13news.com/news/trump-habeas-corpus-suspension-threat
  3. Trump makes a post on Truth Social with him dressed as Pope and not a peep out you id*ots. Now you are offended. 🙄
  4. Now he is talking about suspending habeas corpus. The march to a dictatorship trudges along. https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wh-trump-suspending-habeas-corpus/story?id=121653587
  5. It is worse off. Covid had something to do with that as did Trudeau's economic policies. Trudeau is gone, and if Carney doesn't do better, he will be gone as well. There were reasons people didn't like PP's approach and they need to be addressed by him and his party if they want to gain power. Blaming others won't win you anything so stop whining and do better. It's typical MAGA not to take responsibility for anything. It's always someone else's fault. Grievance culture.
  6. Amazing how a network that no one supposedly watches can magically decide elections. Blaming others for a loss will never win you anything.
  7. Unnecessary?. Trudeau had lost the confidence of his own party and we were due for an election in the fall anyway. Would you have rather had a PM without a seat until the fall? Or are you just referring to the upcoming bye election? Would it have been OK with you if the Liberals had just held a bye election to give Carney a seat until the fall instead of a general election in the spring?
  8. A BoC governor can basically set interest rates and give the government advice. The hard political decisions have to be made by the finance minister and PM. The BoC can't do much if a government ignores its advice would deserve some of the credit (or blame) if it does. As this isn't public information, we will never really know which.
  9. Not the UK but. https://www.reuters.com/world/japan/japan-says-no-plan-threaten-treasuries-sale-us-trade-talks-2025-05-04/ We have no plans to sell US T Bills but if we did we could really screw you. Implied threat while denying the threat. Japanese diplomacy.
  10. Instead of blaming others, Conservatives should be asking themselves why they lost an election they should have won easily. Instead of continually whining, why don't you move to the country you admire so much, or won't they have you. As far as PP's own riding goes, flooding the ballot was bullshit. That stuff can go both ways and Elections Canada needs to take steps to ensure it can't happen again. To anyone.
  11. I don't know that and neither do you. The optics would be really bad for someone who still has aspirations for the big job. I'm not judging his integrity, just saying it is also an astute political move. If Carney is as good as his word about expediting a bye election, it won't be long before he is back in the house. We have seen a side of PP since the election was lost that we hadn't seen before. If he had shown it before, perhaps the conservatives wouldn't have lost. If he keeps it up, I wouldn't be surprised if he eventually does become PM.
  12. You want your country to fail and break up. At least American MAGATS don't want that for theirs. Pathetic.
  13. Trudeau had charisma. Trump has charisma. F*ck charisma, give me boring and competent.
  14. Well Trump took an oath to uphold the Constitution. My guess is Carney will be a lot more loyal to Canada than Trump has been to the Constitution. But we'll have to wait and see, like we do with any new leader. You want him to fail. I don't because I don't give a crap what party a leader is from as long as they do a good job.
  15. He was born in Ft Smith and grew up in Edmonton. There is no requirement for a Prime Minister to born in Canada. Several have not. Our first two were born in Scotland. As for the rest. So what. My grandkids have two passports because one of their grand fathers was Swiss. Bid deal. People with EU passports have the freedom to live and work where they please in the EU but that doesn't mean they aren't loyal to their own countries or have national pride. All Canadian parliamentarians are required to take an oath of office. Ask all the questions you can make up but don't make up answers you want.
  16. They have to hang their hat on something. Was he disloyal to the countries he worked for before? No. Was he disloyal to the companies he worked for before? No. Therefore he must be disloyal.🙄
  17. Canadian MAGATS are a pathetic bunch. Much worse than the Americans because they would sell out their country to the love of someone as bad as Trump.
  18. FFS, Trump lies every time he opens his mouth. He lies his ass off about your own country and you cheer, You're pathetic.
  19. Leo is at least as progressive as Francis and has been critical of Trump and Vance in the past.
  20. Should we get involved in this? Formerly the Tempest Project
