  1. Nobody runs 3 elections with 3 leaders and STILL can't even hint at an alternative climate plan.... then again some of their supporters can't go on vacation because gas went up 3c and the lake dried up and the campground burned down.
  2. He pissed off people like you who think asking about something else is answering. Does your wife say "fine" or "whatever" and walk out the room often? Figured out why? But here ya go: Dental care, Pharmacare, Quebec's not threatening to leave, CPP and OAS are up a little, the kids can afford daycare so she's at work and not mooching, my home is worth more than it was, there's Haloumi and lamb in the stores, people selling pakoras, Mexican and Filipino food from their homes, 3 food trucks that never came here before. I can buy gummies for my back pain and not worry about the grandkids being labelled criminals if they indulge. I didn't get Covid, didn't go bankrupt when the wife sickened and died, there's fewer beggars downtown, the Band got grants and reopened the hatchery. if I buy a new car I can get a rebate if it's electrified. There's a new hospital here this fall and several doctors instead of just one. I have an MP intelligent enough to understand that if the Court says you can't do that you find another way instead of whining and threatening to use notwithstanding as if it was a card to be played whenever, an MP that knows that if something has failed for 100 years you do something different instead of doing it again harder. They always docked income tax off my cheque, so I told them to dock 20% off my pension and I live well on the rest and get a huge refund every spring. Taxes didn't go up. Being from BC and paying carbon tax for 15 years means I think carrying on like 3c is gonna kill you is petty so if you work you're so cheap you squeak when you walk. I gave up all my guns years ago when I moved to town, so I don't have a shred of sympathy for anyone whining that they need an AK47, a safety course and a police check to hunt deer. And I won't carry on much how my indigenous friends and neighbours feel like they're finally part of things. Shall I go on? Like obviously every thing that benefits me caused you irreparable harm and you hate it, right?
  3. No you won't. He'd scare off too many reluctant supporters at the worst time possible if he did. You say exactly what all the Tories I know have said for years. Yawn 🥱
  4. You heard the man: he said he had 19 sycophants who'll swear he never said that.
  5. Not claiming they aren't looking. They're dismissing jobs they see as menial, like retail etc. Where I live @ 18, High School Grad or not, they only want jobs at the mill (few as things are slow), the mine (handful of summer only jobs) or one of the handful of summer jobs in Public Works. By mid-July some will appear in the grocery store as I stated that's a fer sure job. Shut my business 10 years back, but I used to hire a couple extra kids every summer to set up transmitter towers and antennas on homes, learn networking and computer servicing when the weather was bad. One kid came back summer after summer until he went off to college. Several left after weeks when Dad got them a job at the mill. One even quit the mill as they 'only' paid him $19 hr... his Dad made $30 he shoulda got the same! I was paying $11 hr when minimum was was $6.25 and had trouble finding kids. My judgement may be faulty as I'm generalizing, kids elsewhere may be different. I just don't see too many who want to work at A&W in short skirts and roller skates, crawl into boilers and scraper them clean, or lug 2x10s up to the top floor while being yelled at like we all did.
  6. Hell just strip ever homeless person of citizenship and deport them? Yee-haww!! Finish The Wall and put in turnstiles that only let you leave!
  7. You aren't a TRUE Conservative. They want to cut the social safety net and follow the US ideal and criminalize the homeless. Off the streets - into the jails, problem solved.
  8. Your claims are utter bullshit. If Harper was still in power, today you'd get a small fine and no record for possessing marijuana and there sure as hell wouldn't be any weed stores. As is your delusion that laws will make drug use go away.
  9. Truth of the matter immigrants will take those $17hr minimum wage jobs because they have to. Canadian youth thinks they have a choice in the matter. The figure should go down next month when they discover they don't. Closest WalNutz to here is staffed with 90% immigrants, 5% retirees and 5% local people and 1 indigenous girl. You can't understand a single announcement except for TANKEW at the end. The local grocery shore is so desperate they will hire you if you can so much as manage to show up to be interviewed. Could use some immigrants that work hard enough to make the 30 day probation period. And speaking of headlines, congratulations for a decent one. Seeing as how unemployment rose 0.2% in a month most others on the forum would've used Unemployment Soars to 6.4%
  10. What didn't 14 years of Conservative govt not botch completely.
  11. Wrong, wanting change is the best reason to support the Tories, Sure isn't for their non-existent economic, housing, climate, or health care policy alternatives. Or the bozos that just hate Trudeau and can't tell you rationally or specifically why.
  12. It was reported in most sources that 2 women were attacked by a group of men in the headline. The ethnicity of the men and the sexuality of the women were mentioned in the content - not the headline. Of course those that can't tell opinion from news and sure as hell never studied even Journalism 101 think as much sensationalism as possible must be included or a headline doesn't work.
  13. The news is the women were attacked. That's what you put in a headline. You put the details inside the story. You bloody well know why 'by Middle Eastern Men' as well as I do why that was added to the headline.
  14. Analogous to walnuts and chinuts? 😆
  15. Used to have a brewery called Uncle Ben's. They made a terrible beer called Old Blue with an ox on the label. When the brewery went under they sent truckloads of it to the docks and we bought like 200 dozen for $1.25 a dozen. No deposit collected. It was so bad, you only opened it when your drank 4 decent beers and your taste buds were done for. In spite of it being awful, ya never knew how many 'friends' popped by that summer until it was gone. Funny thing was they boosted the deposit over the summer and we got back 65c a dozen for the empties. (we were young then and stuffed ourselves into our old Boy Scout uniforms to get the extra nickel a dozen). So the beers worked out to a nickel per stubby in the end, about what it was worth. The brewery still runs under a different name and makes quite a selection of awful beers.
  16. HE was ugly anyway, right? Why shouldn't he be free to disfigure himself with facial graffiti ?
  17. Pick someone who'll go after the lout on his own terms. BIDEN should have: BORDER? You portray everyone crossing the border as murderers, rapists and gang members and locked their children in cages like a fascist dictator, why don't you get your fat billionaire ass out of the golf cart and pick lettuce like an honest man? Like almost ALL the migrants do. AFGHANISTAN? Who's the fool that believed his advisors, gave all that equipment away to the Afghan Army without knowing they collapse like a house of cards when WE HAD TO pull out as YOU AGREED? We did it, it's over and done. IMMIGRATION? Who's the self serving oaf that made his party suckholes block the bipartisan agreement that would've solved many issues? Wasn't us we had to pony up something, anything that would get past your flunkies. PATRIOT? Who's the traitor bellowing America's broken, not great anymore, who can't go to a memorial because he might get wet, doesn't respect prisoners of war, calls dead soldiers 1diots and stands there denying it with his lying mouth? Biden was there. Where were you? CHARACTER? Who's the one breaking the 10 Commandments like a scorecard, sleeping with Porn stars behind his pregnant wife's back and advising celebrities to sexually assault women because they can get away with it? Courts the Christian vote and can't hold a Bible right side up? Who's been convicted of fraud 34 times? No, I merely put up with being called crooked without anyone even putting forth an example of why. Who being a whole couple years older than you thinks and uses actual experience to decide instead of flying into a narcissistic rage at every perceived annoyance. SPEAKING OF WIVES where's your's; is she waiting off stage to go home with you? CHILD CARE: I actually attempt to do something other than dream that women should stay at home to look after the kids. DRUG DEATHS: Rather than blame the Border which does nothing at all to stop overdose deaths, we need to get to the root of why there are so many users and overdoses. Like address poverty, housing and opportunities, better mental health services are the way to solve the problem of drug use. Blaming the dealers and jailing the victims won't prevent one single death. FIRE STAFF: Unlike you I don't fire people because they aren't total brown nosers, only ones who deserve firing. For not doing their job or not being good at it. Fortunately, I haven't run into any yet. That would've made a better showing, simple snap response to this utter lies followed by an actual answer and opinion on the asked questions.
  18. Not exactly, thinking America was greater sometime in the past is the bad thing. A stupid, disloyal thing. A Step #1 into buying into fascism.
  19. I will remember that one. Many future chances to use it.
  20. White Woman Abandons Kids in Mexico Oh the fact she's Canadian or that she's a Mom isn't what's important. She's white and almost certainly a Christian. Or better yet she may be an atheist for even a bigger share of bigots to explode over. Now let's argue for 32 people that headline isn't racist or even prejudicial in any way.
  21. Mr N Duhh pipes up with his counterfeit 2c again. Gay porn has something to do with Religion in schools. UUNNNGGGHHH.... and deflection from the subject at hand by pointing to something else isn't whataboutism... Look!!! There's Mike Lindell!!!! Hi Mike. You want to preach religion is schools? Then preach ALL of them, from Atheism to Satanism. GO ahead, your kid can waste 5 semesters learning all the names and spellings of Hindu gods adn what king of Mormon underwear they should have.
  22. No I am basing it on what Trump DID, what he SAYS and what he STANDS FOR. The fact you believe the whole media is lying and the justice system is conspiring against him only proves you are an absolute dupe as gullible as they get.
