A lot of them are nutters, not every single one of them.

How do you have "truth" in "truth and reconciliation" when certain people are muzzled for fear of jail time for challenging facts and narratives? Shouldn't people then also be jailed for spreading lies about bad things that happened re: residential schools that never actually occurred? We shouldn't be jailing anyone for non-violent free expression of ideas. It's unconstitutional. Free speech laws aren't designed to protect opinions the government agrees with.

I just said I hate all the parties. I didn't say anything about all politicians or politics. I post here because I care about my country, humanity, and my own interests. It's also therapeutic to vent.

I'm not a Liberal. I hate that party with a passion. Though i hate every single party in this country. They're all filled with a bunch of ideological nutters.

We should have ended a lot of trade relations with them decades ago and banned any of their citizens and state officials from our country given that any person from there can be extorted to do their government's bidding.

The West has been woefully weak in protecting themselves from Chinese information theft, that id agree. But you seem to be intent and laying all the blame on the West. You can keep your doors unlocked out of naivety but a burglar is still responsible for their crimes.

No. The economy is complex. There's lots of things going on here. Trump tariffs, Iran oil prices, a significant decrease in international students, and probably some other Liberal policies too.

The modem left is entirely incapable of calling out minority group activists on their nonsense because they're petrified of offending anyone and being called a racist, homophobe, sexist etc. So they just smile and nod.... I think there's legit trans people in our society, but that doesn't mean you have to bow to every demand. Defending the truth takes courage when it's not politically correct. And the truth is often more important than protecting people's feelings from the truth.

Here's the Chinese business model for cheap EVs (and every other piece of tech): Steal the tech via corporate espionage from companies from other countries who have invested in the R&D. Then undercut them on price and sell it cheaper because you didn't have to invest in the R&D (and your quality sucks).

China steals research and IP from everyone. It's rampant and it isn't a secret and has been going on for many decades. Name one piece of technology China has ever invented on its own in the last 40 years. I'll wait.... Go into any Chinese-owned store or a mall with goods from Chinese companies. Or go on Temu or even Amazon. It's all cheap counterfeit garbage. Sorry bud you can call us naive but you can't lay all the blame on the West when thieves commit theft. The thieves are still criminals and responsible for their crimes.

Canadians used to be more prosperous because inflation happened.

You'd have to kill me before I buy a Chinese car. China stole the vast majority of it.

Human rights are infinitely better in China or most any other developing country if we trade with them on account of, you know, people needing jobs and money to afford basic necessities.

If you complain about too many temporary foreign students/workers (which i did) and the government quickly reduces their numbers by 60%(which I'm glad) you also can't complain about a recession that follows because GDP has dropped. I'm glad housing prices have fallen.

Provide evidence this is Carney's/Liberals fault. Not UCP trash. I don't want your analysis because you're not an economist. I want links to news sources, studies etc saying it's due to their policies.
