Are you referring to the ontario PC and liberals? Please don't tell me you thought the federal party was called "pc"? Ahh no. No that is not what i'm saying. That's stupid. Sure - i'll put down "Not knowing the names of the parties and being clearly mentally deficient and easily confused is a good reason not to support the CPC. Justin trudeau appreciates your support.

It raises some questions about old issues as well - like remember those chinese scientists who worked in the canadian lab that suddenly got fired and went to china? And the liberals blocked any attempt to get details about that with extreme effort?

Some interesting results in the latest canadian poll on the subject: There's only a tiny fraction who want russia to win But people seem to be getting tired of spending money on it. They don't want to buy weapons as much, they don't want to pay for immigrants as much. I think that probably has more to do with people being afraid of problems here and not getting services for our own people,

Actually dispite the left's desire for the nazi's to be 'right wing' there's a very strong argument that they WERE left wing. THey were very socialist about the means of production, forcing most companies to allow for partial and usually controlling gov't interest. they were extremely authortarian which is a 'must have' for the left, and they were strong 'social justice' warrior types who didn't believe in individual choice but wanted to 'cancel' anyone who spoke out. So you can be both

Nope. But i can see how it's important to your echo chamber for you to hold that sentiment. If all one watches is cbc maybe. Well - lets do a quick search - OH LOOK - NUMBER TWO on the returns - Top 5 reasons to support ukraine! https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/top-5-reasons-america-must-support-ukraine-help-defeat-russia And that's from FOX - you'd think they'd be really pushing the whole 'defend democracy" thing but that didn't even make their LIST!! And this is from december last year! What IS on their list?!?! Degrade russia. ohhh what a surprise. Imagine that. But wait... wait, maybe that wasn't the original reason for going. Lets look at what experts said BEFORE the conflict started https://www.kxan.com/news/international/why-does-the-us-care-so-much-about-ukraine-ut-experts-break-down-the-conflict-with-russia/ Ohhhh - he would send weapons to help solidify the fact that terratorial issues should be negotiated not fought in a war and to send a message to places like China!!!! OHHHHhhhhh - funny enough i don't see "democracy" in there as a main reason. The NYT also said similar things and noted why it's critical to help ukraine including nuclear weapon deployment close to nato countries if it falls as well as food and economic interests and notes it's NOT a big push for democracy to say so. https://nypost.com/2022/01/28/america-must-defend-ukraine-from-russian-invasion-for-3-reasons/ Ok ok - that covers BEGINING and END - but what about the middle? https://www.csis.org/analysis/united-states-aid-ukraine-investment-whose-benefits-greatly-exceed-its-cost Ohhh look. They talk about the benefits the us is getting from TESTING THEIR WEAPONS AND TACTICS. HOw this is STRATEGICALLY IMPORTANT for nato allies. etc etc. What they don't talk about is defending democracy in the Ukraine. I could post 100 more articles all discussing the same points and NOT 'defendind ukrainian democracy". So what it boils down to you you're the one full of shit. You clearly have your head up your ass and decided to call someone else out without doing a single drop of research and now you look like a complete dolt. Back to your cartoons kid, the adults are talking here.

Tell me you're a paid liberal hack without telling me Of course they'll do it. Defunding the CBC is a no brainer. And the cpc is not breaking out because there is no election. nobody pays attention with three years to go. Name one time ANY political party ever 'broke out' mid term with a big lead. Although some would suggest 10 points is a big lead and he's been about 6 - 10 for most polls. Of course every left wing hack out there is going to try to claim he's as much of a liar as justin. (that might actually make him more popular in the toronto area, they love their dishonesty in their politicians ) but the fact is he has no reason not to. The only way he doesn't is if he gets a weak minority and the other parties want to go back to the polls over it, but i doubt they'll be eager that quick,

No you don't. You have an unsupported and undefended opinion. Not the same. Well first off, it's pretty obvious that's not their only reason or even their main reason although it's definitely A reason. They're also getting invaluable information about the performance of their weapons and tactics which you just can't get outside of real conflict and they're totally depleating and weakening a hostile rival nation both militarily, economically AND in terms of world prestige. and second off, Why? If someone is being attacked by a hostile and aggressive bully and you can help, and that help happens to have a benefit for your industries, then why wouldn't you?

ROFLMAO!!!! THey couldn't beat UKRAINE! who was armed with american gear. You know who else has american gear? THE AMERICANS!! And lots of it Sounds like the russians lulled them into a TRUE sense of security LOL Forget the Americans, i'm seriously questioning if Russia could beat Canada at this point.

That seems very oddly specific. Ontario will build whatever cars their car lords and masters tell them to. THe question is what should their lords and masters be building? Obviously pretty much everyone is in agreement that a healthy percent should be EV's. But i don't think very many automotive manufacturers will be in buseiness long if they're not making some ice models as well, at least for the foreseeable future.

That's been an argument since the beginning.

So it's not a war of convenience, it's just a convenient war. You probably can't see this, but i'm totally flipping you the bird right now. I think all the militaries are in the same boat. Except england who probably still has ww2 artillery shells kicking around. But then you almost have to ask if from the us and allies perspective if this even is a war. THey've got nobody fighting, their stuff isn't being damaged, as far as they're concerned it's really just an arms deal with some extensive live fire exercises.

you can't really compare our system with the british. For example what happened to her could not happen here - for Chretien to be hounded out of power was unbelievable. In england it's quite common. I can't argue - winning an election is indeed pretty much the definition of electoral success. It really isn't. People crave stability. Two terms is pretty normal and you really have to mess up to get less than two if you get elected in the first place. Even in the states presidents who aren't that popular manage to squeak out two terms. It's very rare for there to be a single term prime minister or president. And by term i mean 4 years ish. No there isn't! Not DURING a term anyway - that's all but unheard of in Canada. You can't even "vote them out" in canada. they have to have messed up so bad that their party is so sick they basically all threaten to quit and go to a general election! I mean I suppose getting assassinated is worse but that's about it! That's not worse. Politically that's still impressive. I think he should have knocked it off sooner for sure but to hold power in your party THAT long in england is something else. Being kicked out of your own party after two wins by an upstart who would then go on to lose the obvious majority to a minority and then lose entirely and have the party completely trashed for three elections on top of it when they were the established party is definitely worse by any reasonable measure.

Nope. Harper green lit more. THe libs just cancelled it when they got in power. Not his fault. It would appear you are the liar sir. And it's a very distasteful lie - you appear to be using the 'bait and switch' method for the most part. Gun control refers to the civillan ownership of firearms, not the criminal use of firearms. He definitely reformed "gun control", and in a major way. He also increased punishment for those who misused guns. Which he also campaigned on. s So - as you know, my policy is "if you have to lie to make a point, then you probably don't have a very good point to begin with" And by the way - harper was in charge of the CPC... not the PC. THe PC party isn't around any more. That alone shows your lack of knowledge on the subject. As to the rest of your rant, Good. We don't need people of your lower intellect associated with the CPC. its actually quite handy to have your party as a home for the mentally deficient to keep them out of the way of more honest conservatives. Makes it easy to say "the CPC isn't radically right - THOSE guys are". You go ahead and stick your head in the sand, we'll let you know when it's safe to come out again. In the meantime i'm sure justin appreciates your support. As you say, your goal is to keep him in power.

They have accepted defeat many times in their history. What they won't accept is a defeat they can't explain away for some reason. If putin retires or dies then they'll call it off and blame it on his stupidity. If he lives they'll say they actually pulled their forces out because they succeeded in wiping out the nazi's they went in to get. (i mean, why not). THey may be given a hunk of land so they can pretend it was worth the loss of all those lives and all that equipment somehow. But they absolutely will accept defeat. They have a history of it.

Bro, don't pretend people are upset with you just because you're wrong and they successfully point that out. I can't help your complete misunderstanding of history. All i can do is correct you when you're wrong. You should be thanking me, not getting upset. If you read a little more i woudln't have to help you out. But next time if you don't know the answers just ask, i'm happy to explain the actual facts as they actually occurred to prevent you being wrong in the future.

Sure - liberals have often had great success with lying. The east loves itself a good liar. It's practically a prerequisite. And of course the PC picked a fight with the west, who decided to start another party which esentially ended any threat to the Liberals for quite some time. As soon as that got settled tho... powdie. Harper did a huge amount. In fact some of the most radical new ideas came during his time, tho they were often downplayed. His handling of the recession was brilliant. Of course he had a minority for most of his time, and no deal with the ndp to prop him up, but he still got a craptonne done and did it without cutting payments to the provinces. LOL - so much so that even the ndp thinks it's the liberals now Not so much on the 'endless domination' thing i suspect. Two full terms worth of time in office is about normal. Historically the liberals did better than that but it looks like those days are pretty much over. Justin will probably be gone next election. And PP will probably get two terms out it before he has to go. possibly more.

He didn't. He knows you're right, so he's got to create a fake argument that he thinks he can win. He doesn't think he can argue against the actual point you made.

Nope. THey cut FUNDING to the PROVINCES for it - but the actual costs remained. THey just said someone else should pay for it. That's not 'cutting the cost", that's just passing the bill. Nope. THey knew he hadn't. In fact- that's what they ran on. THey literally ran on the idea that the PC were going TOO FAR on fiscal restraint. The GST? Unfair! We'll get rid of that! Trade with america? No way - we'll scrap that. We don't need those things! We don't need fiscal restraint!!! THey get in - guess what gets kept.

Really. And how did they do that. By bringing in the GST, one of the major contributors to wiping out the deficit? ER,... no, they campaigned against that. They promised to scrap it. They lied, and kept it because that was one of the best ways to deal with the deficit. By lowering interest rates? No - that was done by mulroney after trudeau racked it up. They fell from about 20 percent down to about 5 percent. So they didn't do that. By singing a trade deal with the US that greatly benefitted us? NNNNOoooppe! Again that was mulrioney, again they campained on scrapping it, again they kept it because it was doing the job. By seriously slashing EI benefits and then stealing 70 BILLION dollars from the EI fund which paid for every single one of their surpluses? Yep. that money is literally more than all their surpluses combined. That was not 'tax' money, that was insurance money but they just went ahead and stole it. AND they downloaded a bunch of costs to the provinces. So the provinces went into debt instead of the feds. But there's only one taxpayer - so while it LOOKED good it was actually trash. So they did NOTHING except just stick to the plan that the PC had already started.

It isn't. And as someone who has to deal with this quite a bit i'm here to tell you it's not going to be easy or fast or cheap to eventually do it. Sorry. it's one thing for a small percent of the segment to have EV's, but it would be a massive massive undertaking to make it so everyone could in the very near future.

True, that is the key. It's all about the batteries (or generator) in the future for sure. That's what will make them practical for all.

You may not have said it or meant it but yet it's largely true. This is a VERY convenient war for the us and allies. Putin was completely retarded to start it. Without wasting a single allied life, the russians are being severely depleted militarily and will be years building back up to where they were before, if they can at all. THat's pretty convenient. As you say, the allies get to get rid of aging weapons systems AND they get to test them in real combat doing so, so they can learn how to make the next ones better and even more effective. They get to see how they can be used effectively in the field. That's VERY convenient. You can't pay for that kind of testing . The russians are losing credibility globally which will help the US negotiating in foreign areas such as the middle east. That's convenient as well. This whole thing comes with a package price of a few billion a year - which is NOTHING. The US's defense budget is about 819 billion dollars when it's at peace! Fighting a war and running your enemy into the ground for a few billion dollars is a super mega bargain! That's not just convenient, it's frugal! And of course unless russia manages to take all of the ukraine, from now on whatever is left of it will be solidly in the US's corner and control, so the russians have basically handed a major military and economic asset to the US. The US won't even have to let them join nato to get fully miliary access to the country moving forward. Ukraine sold itself to the us for the arms it needed. Meanwhile the Russains are selling themselves - to china. Who is going to be a MUCH less pleasant overlord

If they were to have won against the ukraine, undeniably. That's why it's in the best interests of the US and nato to keep supporting the Ukraine. It would appear the opponents of that have to lie and take statements out of context to make their point. My rule is that if you have to lie to make a point, you probably don't have a very good point. Obviously those opposed to supporting ukraine don't have a very good point.

Yes he was. Every prime minster runs up the largest debt in history - the costs of things go up and the number of people go up. However - mulroney ran mostly structural surpluses. Meaning what he brought in for revenue was greater than what he put out in expenses. But - he couldn't deal with that debt. Remember he STARTED with the largest debt in our history. And that debt was clocking in at closer to 20 percent interest. That was to fight the runaway inflation of the time due to trudeau's massive borrowing. There was no way to service that debt. So he did all he could to reasonably cut expenses, the negotiated the free trade agreement and they brought in the GST as a specific deficit killer. And they continued on their way to forcing down inflation and interest rates. It is a complete lie of epic and biblical proportions to suggest they weren't concerned about the debt. That's ALL they worked on for the most part. No, it was a crisis before then. And not one of mulroney's making. COMPLETE swing and a miss there. You are way off base with your recolleciton of those events.

Bitcoin is perfectly fine, that got twisted by the media all out of shape. But there really is no difference between bitcoin and the stock market. Name one critisizm of the one that doesn't apply to the other. OTHER than crypto isn't officially regulated, which is all that PP proposed. And supporting the convoy's right to protest is fine. As it turns out a lot of people changed their tune on that. And nobody is going to say "ohhhh i love his economics and i do want a house and less red tape and stuff would be great and i know he'll deliver that but... man, he DID say that he supports the convoy's right to protest and that any individual who breaks the law should go to jail. Nobody likes how justin managed that so it's not like he can hold it up as an example. There's nothing "radicaly right wing' about allowing peaceful protest. There's nothing radically right wing about supporting crypto currency regulation. They fail but they do not fail badly. Harper didn't fail badly. But chretien got thrown out by his own people, and his successor was destroyed by an upstart party that just got created at the polls, sinking the libs into a decade of being in a political backwater despite the fact they were the natural ruling party for decades. He failed BADLY. And none are proposing to do so. The fact that this is even a comment being made is more proof of how the left wing media can lead people by the nose. Economically PP has been about identical to harper in his proposals, arguably slightly LEFT of him. Yet he's painted as a 'right wing radical'. The people of Canada better wake up. Because if they keep turning away moderate candidates then sooner or later a TRULY radical one will get in and they'll regret that. Or the country will just collapse like greece.
