Good thing I don't want that. Liberals don't have a chance where I vote so don't worry. Neither do Conservatives BTW. I'm hoping my vote contributes to there being a minority government. Doesn't matter to me if its Liberal or Conservative. Just so long as neither have all the power. Who needs, as you put it, a dictator for the next four years? Canada shot itself in the head decades ago when it signed onto Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher's view of how the world should be.

It's not like judges can go order the air-force to go fetch the planes and turn them around. Maybe it should be in the judicial branches power to do that. What's to prevent the three branches of your government from falling into some sort of civil war over usurpation by one another? Whose side will the armed forces take? You guys are falling into a really weird messed up place down there.

Already posted? Figures lie and liars figure... From your source... The report is the latest “Died on a Waiting List” policy brief from SecondStreet since the conservative-leaning organization began tracking wait-list deaths in the spring of 2018. Since then, the think tank has counted 74,677 cases where Canadians passed away while waiting for treatments. These range from potentially life-saving ones, such as heart operations or cancer therapy, to life-enhancing ones, such as cataract surgeries and hip replacements. Dying while ON a waiting list is not the same as dying BECAUSE they were on a waiting list. This sounds suspiciously like, I should say exactly like, the schtick used to accuse governments of inflating COVID deaths to pump the fear - alleging that authorities counted anyone who died that had both COVID and a co-morbidity counted as a COVID death. Like I said figures lie and liars figure and there just ain't no cure for it.

It's Media Bribery Season for the LPOC Again
eyeball replied to WestCanMan's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
I doubt it is legal if it's bribery. It's pathetic how emasculated and powerless Conservative parties seem to be in the face of corruption. Utterly useless when it comes to doing anything to prevent, investigate or prosecute it, especially white collar crime like this. Catch and release is the best they can do and even that seems like a real chore. -
Mainstreet polling March 30 - liberal majority predicted
eyeball replied to CdnFox's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
He also has to convince his more hard-boiled outspoken supporters to keep their mouths shut but with Danielle Smith saying to hell that he's facing an uphill struggle. I don't know why the other parties don't do more to goad his supporters. -
Sure I get that, it's why I vote with the hope the result will be a minority government. Funnily enough you people usually cross yourselves, get all indignant and badmouth the thought of cooperation and plead with Canadians to give Conservatives a strong majority. There's nary a peep about governments having too much power and doing whatever they want then. It's what you want for your guy.

A dictator who needs permission... doesn't sound like much of a dictator to me. I suppose it'll be easy as falling off a log though because as everyone knows lefties just can't wait to become slaves. I'm just going where your assertions lead, obviously you can't think them through to any sort of conclusion.

Yup. We get them where it matters - cost, life expectancy and infant mortality. Bullshit. Prove it.

You learn to walk before you can run and in your case you still need to master crawling. Carbon dioxide (CO2) traps heat because its molecular structure allows it to absorb infrared radiation (heat) emitted by the Earth, preventing it from escaping into space, a process known as the greenhouse effect. This was discovered by Eunice Newton Foote in 1856. This will be on the test BTW.

Liberal Party Takes Lead in Polls
eyeball replied to TreeBeard's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
By the very same token...not bringing forward and using your advantages is irresponsible leadership. Poilievre is sitting on a climate change/carbon tax revelation that could not only secure his election but lead the entire world to a whole new more effective way of dealing with AGW. But apparently he's subscribed to the sense no one cares about climate change anymore. Like woke and DEI, climate change is another issue that's evaporated.
