Not going to argue with you but I am much more optimistic than your doom and gloom outlook. Enjoy your misery

Don't be so dramatic LOL Smell reality. We have done this to ourselves and the hole we dug is extremely deep. Sure, you (and others) can say anything you want but you for sure do not understand or can grasp what is realistic and what is pie in the sky fantasy. Indigenous and Quebecers are also only self serving. Indigenous teat suckers since day one and Quebecer only think of nothing but themselves. They could help Canada by using their US electricity exports as a threat but they have said they will not. Canada has not been "air, transport, energy, and agriculture innovator in the past". Canada has participated, been a partner but has not accomplished much on it's own. It has only exported military equipment during war times when all factories reverted to making war supplies We are a resource rich country that exports raw material and imports finished product back. We have (had) smart people but they went where they were being paid for their knowledge and inovativness. I served this country as a career and I am very aware and knowledgeable about our capacity and ability. Would I like us to do better and be better? For sure. Am I optimistic that our society would delve into areas that make us better and more independent? Not sure... as long as they don't have to give anything up ...maybe but who will cough up the dollars to make it happen? Remember the old expression "the governemtn cannot give anyone anything unless it first takes from someone else". See, you put false words into others mouthes Canadians have always compromised and we will continue to do so.

What "spare industrial capacity" do we have in Canada? Easy philosophical thing to say but, in reality it means zero. 1. High speed rail??? In Canada? What northern country has high speed rail?? Oh, non? Maybe there is a reason And we need the electric capacity and infrastructure. LOL 2. We have zero high technology business , engineering capability, design ability to manufacture state of the art military equipment. 3. We have provinces that will not allow pipelines thought it's territory (BC and Quebec). The feds had to take over the LNG pipeline in BC but the indigenous are still protesting. 4. You realize refineries don't just pop up, they can take decades to build and ...well, we Canadians are a bunch of NIMBY's. 5. How can you incentivize companies when they cannot make products to compete. Our wage and benefit and regulations and material cost do not make it profitable for companies. That is why they left Canada. Anyway, nice to philosophize LOL

Funny how a person like Mulcair has become "special" but when he was leader, his party was nearly wiped out. He was only leader for 5 years and official opposition for 3. I guess we forget he lost a non confidence vote within his own party and stepped down.

Not siding with liberals in any way but, perhaps a non politician can bring newness to that table?? Most politicians use name/credentials to get in and voters vote based on name/credentials.

Not all republicans are "all for it". Many have questioned Trump's tactics and actions but, are very scared of him. Bullies always put the scare in people.

I think the story says right away. I think the tax elimination in BC is April 1 https://www.biv.com/news/economy-law-politics/april-1-carbon-tax-hike-to-be-cancelled-10377827 I thought the carbon tax was a legislated law and, I am not sure, but does that not require parliamentary action to repeal a law?? Anyway, as I said, details are missing. And....? They are doing away with it.

The topic is Carney eliminating carbon tax. Excise tax on gasoline has been around since 1987.

Not sure what that has to do with my post?? All I said was they (EU countries) get along??

Yeah, details are missing. I am wondering if gas prices will be down tonite? My natural gas bill down as of today? it all in the details and those are missing There will still be one last rebate cheque in April.

.Carney just cancelled the Carbon Tax. The Liberal government is immediately ending the consumer carbon price and made the change official during Prime Minister Mark Carney’s first cabinet meeting this afternoon. https://ottawa.citynews.ca/2025/03/14/prime-minister-mark-carneys-cabinet-terminates-consumer-carbon-price/?

Nope, I owe you no answers. LOL This thread is about Carney, not you LOL Poor Baby... your shitty diapers startin to smell or they been smellin for a long time LOL By the way...Carny just cancelled the Carbon Tax. https://ottawa.citynews.ca/2025/03/14/prime-minister-mark-carneys-cabinet-terminates-consumer-carbon-price/?

Nope. It is not a political thread. If you want to ask political questions, start your own thread LOL This thread is about a loser named King who got sentenced. Poor Baby, your diapers need changin?? LOL

Ha Ha HA...He is PM now...you ain't You no like? Tough shit. Talk to you about what?? Carney is PM. Plain and simple. Like it or not. I don't give a shit. King? Who is that? Oh, the fool that just got sentenced??? LOL You are a simpleton. A small mind stuck on small topics and clearly living a very small cloistered life

My point is they dolt got sentenced.... You no like, tough shit LOL I only come to respond to fools like you. You don't want to read my posts...then don't. You don't want to see more of my posts, then don't respond LOL Oh and, in case you need to know, I ain't and never have been a liberal supporter. I do like to pi$$ fools like you off by playing counterpoint though so, keep it up. I need the entertainment.

Boo Hoo. Sucks to be you. Can't change the facts. Yeah... the thing is. King got prosecuted. I didn't sentence him. I think he is the joke and has his whole life to think about it LOL I just love how much this pisses you off LOL

It is not "stickin' it to libbies.". It is "stickin it to other countries" that is the problem. Laying off or firing public servants is not "stickin it to the libbies" it is damaging to the American society and public. Tariffs is not "stickin it to the libbies" it is seriously damagign his own economy and "stickin it to the American public".

Yeah...they seem to be scared of the Wrath of Trump. Although,many are speaking publicly and the constituents are talking.

Ha Ha Ha.... all about me...Ha Ha Ha ...I am not in jail or been sentenced or have a criminal record for life. Clearly you cannot even read the title of the post "Convoy Protester Sentenced" LOL Like it or not, King was sentenced for breaking the law. It is not in any way what I thinkk is 'right and wrong'. What is right is what the judge sentenced King for LOL Methinks your convoluted idea of right and wrong is what is messed up..... you failed, the judge won and you lost LOL

It is not the Republicans...it is Trump and his buddies alone.

Man, thank goodness not all folks on this forum and in Canada are as dense as you LOL

Ok, I have made my point then why do you keep questioning?? He broke the law, got caught, got charged, went to jail, could not post bail , sat in jail for 4 months, went on trial, got sentenced and now he has a life as a criminal. Suck it up buttercup....this thread is about him and you just don't want it to end LOL Loser?? King is the epitome of a loser LOL Ha Ha Ha... This ain't about me, it is about a loser named King Ha Ha Ha Don't want this to go on??? Then stop perpetuating this. LOL

Tsk Tsk Tsk .... a once respected Senior NCO Army man...gone so low. Sorry to see that happen.

Another down vote. Wow, you have seriously become a little child. Yes, I downvoted you on an occasion but it was for a particular post which I disagreed with but, we carried on. But your actions now are low. Sad to see a guy I used to have respect for go so low. Sad.

You are so wrong....Budweiser is an American Brand of beer. Not who owns the company. "Yes, Budweiser is an American brand, originally introduced by Anheuser-Busch in St. Louis in 1876," You off to Timmies? A non Canadian company also partially owned by a Brazilian company. Push what out?? Budweiser is the official beer of the NHL and is sold in every NHL arena in North America. Besides, you have no idea when the photos was taken. Last years playoffs? You don't know . Also you have no idea what the source of the photo is. Yup seriously childish act by a Senior Army NCO....8 of them all in a few minutes... a fit of rage I guess. LOL
