Zelensky plans to kill as many "Ukrainians" (Slavic Goys) as possible on behalf of the Anglo-Khazarian elite before moving to the Bahamas in his $30 million mansion.
😀
Don't you mean Putin? Oh wait...he'd get arrested. He can't go south of the Black Sea. This will have to do I guess:
What a hero of the People. 🤡

All you're "pointing out" is what you're making up. Show us the quote, or we can safely conclude that this is just more smooth-brain Foxfantasy. 🤡

I never cheered for any of them but, as you're such a looser, you now resort to lies and accusations.
Nothing new here. Everything you've ever said about this conflict has been pro-Putin right from the start, right down to the absurdly dumb idea of Jewish Nazi Zelensky. 🤡

Lol...you're such a poor looser. I told you 2 years ago that Ukraine could not win a war against Russia without NATO troops.
There's lots of ways for Ukraine to "lose" the war. They should have lost right away, but didn't on account of the pathetic and brainless Russian army you've been cheering the whole way, as they throw their peasant soldiers lives away for next to nothing. Go look at a map of the front lines in Summer 2022. Compare them to today.

You have been wrong all along clown-boy.
Deal with it.
Wrong about what? It's been over two years and the front lines have barely moved. Mighty Russian and your hero are still threatening and threatening...now it's Odessa on the line. When? When are the garbage donkey peasants from Russia going to take Odessa, do you figure?

1. Management, from the lowest supervisor to the Deputy Minister is charged with solving problems. There are plenty of unionized places that don't have these problems.
Charging them with solving problems is a very different thing than empowering them to do so. You can mandate whatever you want to the managers, but if they're not empowered to get it done and they're cucked from the start by a sweetheart CBA deal, they're nothing more than frustrated talking heads.
2 hours ago, Michael Hardner said:Maybe some of this is informed by me dealing with said management, and knowing some people on the inside. It seems like a horrible environment for all involved.
There are horrible managers everywhere. I suspect even more so in the public sector than in the private, with much of it having to do with what's described above. Trying to motivate and get the most out of people who have no incentive to do anything but the literal bare minimum is a Sysyphean task that most ambitious and capable people would avoid.
2 hours ago, Michael Hardner said:2. Well Poilievre would be the guy to change things but ... war with the union isn't very creative and probably won't change things much in the long term. I do appreciate that leadership of management and union sometimes take a war footing. But the cost to both workers and management of perpetual stasis is great IMO.
Creativity isn't required for uncomplicated problems. Messaging and getting the public on your side is more important. It's not like disgruntled public sector unions are going to perform their jobs worse than fat and coddled ones. Mike Harris and Jean Chretien were able to bring things back on-side. Though painful, it was necessary, and only made that way by the pandering largesse of previous governments.
Our CBA dealings with public sector unions need to be in-line with supply for workers. If we're short on nurses, sweeten the deal. That's how it should work, but it's not how it is. Overall, the public sector has near-zero vacancy despite its ballooning size whilst the private sector has spent the last couple years struggling to find workers. That tells us everything we need to know.

Your argument kiddo. No surprise you're running away from it now.
Very typical of you - "I'M ONLY WRONG BECAUSE YOU MADE ME WRONG!!!!" LOL!
It's funny, because you no matter how many times I explain otherwise, and the fact that you can't quote me anywhere at any time saying anything of the sort, you're still insisiting on arguing against something that only you have ever said. 🤡
Keep on debating with yourself, muppet.

Is it over? Are they taking Odessa? If Ukraine fires into Russia proper, is that going to make the Russians take Odessa...even more? 🤡

Only a left wing nutjob would claim that a tax worth many billions of dollars per year doesnt' make things more expensive. "Sure we pay tax on it, but that doesn't make the price go higher! Derp!"
Nobody is claiming it isn't. That's just the T-Ball argument you've pathetically invented for yourself to battle against. Whenever challenged, CdnFux will play make believe and debate against a phantom argument nobody, anywhere, ever made. 🤣
What's being contented is the scale and severity of the effect that you grossly, comically exaggerate, and your absolute inability and unwillingness to validate it - nothing but more of your clueless, made-up, unsupported and belligerent bullshitting. 👏
The experts are all wrong, CdnFux says. It's the friendly MSM media...LOL. I applaud you for finally putting your tinfoil hat on in the open for us all to see.

1. Yes, All of this is part of the culture.
2. Well, it you are thinking I'm blaming individuals then I agree with you. But it's all management culture.I don't see how it can have much of anything to do with management. If you agree that the unionized public sector is not incentivized to either perform or listen to management, and the managers (at any level) are not empowered to do anything about it, how is this a management culture problem?
3 hours ago, Michael Hardner said:3. Good points. I think there's an opportunity to change all that, for leadership with imagination.
This doesn't require a lot of imagination. The vacancy rates for public sector positions are near-zero despite the ballooning numbers of positions. They're overpaid by any objective measurement and the culture of entitlement has been enabled and encouraged by Liberal government leadership. Canadian taxpayers have been bullied and pushed around by public sector labor monopolies and the Liberals cynically giving them sweetheart deals for too long. It's (unfortunately) come to the point where a harsh reversal is required.

Tell me again how Ukraine is going to kick Russia's ass.
Do you have an answer for the question? Why would Ukraine care if Russia gets mad? What have they been doing that they haven't already done? 🙄

1. Ukraine can and probably will continue to drone attack sites inside Russia proper. However all that's gonna do is raise oil prices and p1ss off the Russians. At this point, I think p1ssing off the Russians further would be to invite them to bomb the Hell outta Kiev.
What do the Ukrainians care if the Russians are pissed off? They're already invading and fully committed. Now, instead of being really really really mad, you figure they'll get really really really really mad? 🙄

There's no other ways to look at it: post WWII order and system is gone. Dead. There's no incremental means to pedal it back: fantasies. Illusions.
What the new age of the world will be, look and feel like will be decided in the course of a few years that follow. Don't say you didn't know it was a surprise.
I'm curious about what you see here that's different than all of the other times Israel has been attacked. How is this much different than SCUDs being launched from Iraq, or all of the other parties that have tried? What about this do you figure is so transformative?

No, he's not. The economists and the BoC have all weighed in on how minor the impact is. It's just simpleminded donkeys like you who don't actually know anything about it and figure that rhyming slogans count for more than numbers, expert opinions and research.

1. I don't know that I did that. I did blame the culture though.
The management culture, whatever that means. Maybe I misunderstood. I think it's worth considering what it would be like to work in management for a militant public sector unionized workforce. You get your marching orders from the Ministry or whoever, and then you deliver them to a workforce that has little/no reason to take you seriously and has no incentive to do anything but the bare minimum the job requires. This is a toxic dynamic that reinforces poor outcomes, and that's unlikely to attract our best and brightest.
15 hours ago, Michael Hardner said:2. Really not too much controversy in what you posted there. What did you mean? Responsibility flows up? You mean that the deputy ministers... People who have never generally worked in a real organization, who have massive amounts of power and are unknown to the public May be an issue?
I'm saying that the issue and the culture has little to do specifically with management. This is a political problem - one where the priorities and Raisons d'Êtres of the Public Service have taken a backseat to the entitlement of its union members, and the governments that grant them in exchange for a huge bloc of unwavering election support.
This is a poisonous relationship, and one that Canadians need to recognize and reject. Having 1/4 of our workforce employed and grossly overpaid in the Public Service is one of the primary reasons why not only is our productivity stagnating and falling behind, but also why we have a gaping and growing hole in our public finances.

Me being here has no effect whatsoever on your puking all over the forums all day. If I'm gone for a weekend, a few days, or a week, you're still pounding out 40+ battlemode posts a day, melting down and throwing insults at the drop of a hat as soon as anyone calls out your clueless bullshitting.

Oh that's standard fair. He humiliated himself ranting about inflation last year, and he's still dredging it up now. That's what this 100-50 garbage is that he keeps squawking about - another made-up phantom he's invented to cope with so he can argue against himself.

I should have said middle management. I meant that there's a lack of customer focus. And it's the overall culture that has to be changed....
The lack of customer focus is unquestionable, but blaming it on middle managers, or their managers, is silly.
Almost 1/4 working Canadians now works for the public service. That's absurd, and it's pretty much become a political class of its own in Canada. The Federal (and at least in Ontario) Provincial Liberals have feasted on this demographic during elections, and they've enjoyed a feedback loop that's symbiotic between them, but parasitic for the overall population.
We have a bloated, ineffective and overpaid public sector that views the perpetuation of this arrangement as its primary goal, rather than the delivery of services to Canadians. Blame the middle managers if you want, but that's very Putinesque. Responsibility flows up, not down. Standing at the top are the Liberal governments, buying and paying for the votes that keep them in government.

Kid - every time we talk. Every time. You look like a childish 1diot and largely because it's your life goal to make ME look like an 1diot and you wind up shooting yourself in the foot.
If it were my life goal, my post count would look something like this:
Alas, I go to work, do things outside the house, and don't have time for 40+ posts and engaging in a dozen internet battles with various people on any given day.
Fortunately, you do such a good job making yourself look like an assclown that anyone can point it out. The fact that you can't make it to the second page of a thread without getting into a fight with someone and humiliating yourself speaks for itself. 🙃

And above all, we have to instigate a revolution of management in Canada's Public services. Management today is beholden primarily to their bosses, not the public.
Who do you figure the bosses are? That seems like a pretty facile explanation for why our Public Service is so bloated, yet still ineffective. It's just upper management's fault?

Would a mixture of public and private health care solve the health care crisis?
in Federal Politics in Canada
Posted
We do, but the most important thing is getting the public to understand. For the last 10-15 years, the public sector unions have done a better job building their narrative and driving the story. Tone-deaf buffoons like Tim Hudak were easy targets for the Teacher's Unions etc to make them out as villains.
This is also a problem, but I suspect small potatoes. Part of the problem is nepotism, where contracts are getting awarded to friends and acquaintances with little oversight, the other side of it is that the public service is full of mediocre to useless people who are incapable of doing the work themselves.
