The word is SHIT. Being too polite for the word to come out of the mouth does not redeem anyone so ignorant they don't understand the concept of satire. No wonder FB is bloaking the Beaverton in their "Canadian News" ban....

Real estate? You mean that 3%+ Property transfer tax on all those $1.5 million dollar homes? They didn't even have the brains to bring that tax in in the first place! Why they got rid of the $5 toll on every bridge you crossed both ways every day to get to work and back, and that wasn't even a tax, it was a "user fee". Hell they could've sold BC Ferries back to BlackBall in the USA for $1 and unloaded all those operating costs like the good Free Enterprise party did with BC Rail. NDP can't even run a popsicle stand!

You're welcome to use up 20 pages and 3GB of server space to convince yourselves the Earth is flat..

Asking a lot for someone who needs citations to explain the difference between an unmarked grave and a mass burial. Most of us knew in Grade 6. Aside from the usual Gaslighting, claiming what was posted is the opposite of what was posted, proving that no amount of proof is ever going to convince you the sky is blue and insulting anyone who speaks otherwise is "winning"... what are you trying to prove? Stories from all over the country from the persons involved proves they're all liars conspiring against white people? Just who is the jackass?

Our turn to take the knife from these merciless satirists:

I'm sure the Editor has a second article in his desk drawer, fully prepared for a Damn Trudeau if he Did, Damn Trudea if he Didn't headline.

Hell the environment's collapsing, you can't get a decent paying job, you can't afford a house and food prices are skyrocketing. Russia's invading other countries, China's trying to steal Asia's water, the Norks are building nukes and rockets aimed specifically at you, India's making all the advancements in space, "American" cars are built in Mexico... But you'll back Trump and DeSantis because they'll ensure no queer will ever shit in the same room as you have to. You know what's really important.

I'm sure your buddies would agree about leftists as there's absolutely no one to the right of you and them.... hell, Hitler was too left for you.

It's highly unlikely we'll see another lockdown over Covid. Would you comply with lockdowns, masking and vax's if the next pandemic is an airborne Leprosy/AIDs variant? Catch the person next to you in Chuch's nose when it slid off their face and hand it back to them like a true believer?

Thay took my God given right to supplement my pesion away by working at McDees! Lied to my face saying it was because that dark skinned guy who spoke broken English could unload 90 lb. boxes of frozen dog meat off the truck all day and I couldn't.....

Massive crowd turns out to support Tamara and Chris:

OMG consumption taxes hurt the poor more it's just too hard for Flaridummies to figure out rebates for them. And because everybody smokes and drinks the same amount and buy exactly the the same make and model of cars. When a poor guy buys a $90,000 F159 they pay the same tax as a rich guy who buys a $90,000 F150 so that proves the GST is unfair to the poor... [/s]

Lock 'em up in privatized jails so m taxes don't go up.... You can lead a horticulture but you can't make her think.

Get rid of benefits like welfare and raise taxes on the poor at the same time as ensuring their right to own firearms.... duh.... claiming Biden is a corrupt dictator when you really want is a Czar Nicholas to make things better.... “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” TLDR for a MAGA Floridan I guess.

cigarette & gas taxes raise taxes from everybody you pinhead. Less so from the poor as they buy less. Says the brainac from the country that worries endlessly about deficits and is too butt stubborn to impose a VAT/GST on purchases.

just to counter your whinging.... B.C. posts $704M budget surplus, say audited public accounts Maybe we should stop fighting the fires and pay down the debt instead to impress the bean counters, eh?

In other words, you have no interest at all in preserving Canadian Culture, you want to roll things back 60 years and pretend that was a better time. ... and you're not racist at all. [/s]

Unfortunately 'globalism' is another buzzword to pull the wool over the disgruntled. And trade agreements are now carved in stone and irreversible. Trying to pin blame is pointless, and trying to pin it on Clinton is utter GOP propaganda. The year before NAFTA the outboard motor I bought was $1699 here, $1399 in Vancouver and $399 at Costco in the USA. Don't give me the 33% discount on the dollar meant prices were quadruple. Or that workers didn't benefit at all. The 27" colour TV we bought in 1989 was $1100. Today I can get a huge 65" Smart, flatscreen HDTV for $700, a 32" for as little as $139. On a pension about what I made back then, that massive box with the tiny screen was worth about $6000 in today dollars. Same with all sorts of other consumer goods. It's the schizoid nationalism that begs you to buy American-buy Canadian at the same time as invest in Company X that got massive boosts in profits & tax reductions to offshore all production. And yes it's the chickenshit "don't upset the corporations cuz that's communism" that's led to shit like Obamacare, continued 25% chicken tax on small trucks, the fact that USA refusal to adopt metric is hidden protectionism. That the refusal to think through trade policies before adopting them was the root cause. Hell the low wage countries adopted automation and productivity programs almost immediately, and we all paid the price here for corporate foot-dragging and lack of long term vision. And still sing the schizoid 'buy from the companies that screw you' or you're disloyal song. And the political bullshit is insufferable. After all the Trump rhetoric and promise, every new model Ford, GM, Stellantis model offering is built in Mexico. Even Elon has joined in building Teslas in China and shipping them back here. Multi-billion dollar subsidies just so Canada can keep it's finger in the pie. Maddening!

It's shoplifting.... as opposed to theft under/over $somany... it never was or will be a major crime.

In that you're entirely correct. Yet they sure want to let it be known that everything's the other 10%'s fault.... Even at the everyday work level, they don't want to go to the union meeting cuz Mork & Mindy was on TV... they got treated like shit by the Boss but didn't file a grievance because they "didn't like" the Shop Steward that they never showed up to pick let alone run for, they griped incessantly that the union just took their dues and did nothing for them, when they hadn't even told them about their complaint. Came home from work one election day there's my 21 yr old and all his buddies griping how weed was still illegal, told them the polls are open, you're all old enough to vote NDP, Liberal. Green- get going. They didn't. Next day they're all moaning Harper won... A democracy means you have the choice to DO something about things, but if you don't actively participate it's your own fault, not the peoples who did.

Convince yourself to vote for the people they chose for you instead... don't rock the boat, you'll be the one that gets seasick

Raise taxes on the poor... any further proof needed this guy is bat shit insane?

Deny they've been brainwashed their whole lives. Asides from 1/2 the USA cowering under their beds since 1950 over the Red Scare, look at the Cdn fools on this site insisting the Conservatives will better serve their interests. The f*cking Liberal party at least pays lip service!

They did they did! And the lazy prosecutors wouldn't piddle away thousands of dollars in legal fees and court time for stealing $50 worth of goods! They should've locked them in jail! Cut off their hands! Punish, punish. PUNISH some more... that's what justice IS...
