Lived in Germany for 5 years great place, So what.....but you failed to explain how Canada will benefit from joining the EU...The question i ask is why is Canada not have all these things you mention, by joining are we suddenly going to get all these things....no, we are not 50 years from now your statement will still hold true... https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/region_prices_by_city?itemId=2®ion=150 https://schengen.news/food-accommodation-prices-across-popular-eu-destinations-in-2023/

That may be the case, but according to the polls many Americans agree with trump they are tired of paying most of the bills, when that money could be making American lives better...yet we Canadians don't care we are entitled to free stuff...and trump is saying free ride is over, buckle up it is time to pay up...

Good for your grandparents....Back then the country had their militaries backs, they had the country's full support..which was lost decades ago, today the average canadian does not give a sh!t about it's military or people that served...your an example of that I served this nation, I've seen Canadian soldiers killed or wounded in combat, only to have to come back to our nation and fight the government in court for basic medical needs, I heard our PM tell a soldier we are asking for more than we can provide...this after running one of the largest deficits that same year....Canada pays it's veterans 20 cents on the dollar when compared to WWII vets.... Our government has said to the public the last veterans were from the korean war, and todays vets are not entitled to the same Veterans benefits...A Afghanistan vet who lost both legs to and IED still need to prove every year that his legs have not grown back just to receive his current benefits... I would suggest going to a Veterans affairs website, and read some of the complaints Canadian vets are having or just research how many court cases veterans have still outstanding and then tell me Canada has their backs.... I served my country, for 35 years, been to alot of the worlds sh!t holes....and was under the assumption that if we came home broken they would look after all of us... well not all of us have been looked after....the sad part about it is you and Most canadians already know this, that Canada betrayed us...not the other way around...and sat around and did nothing...just let it happen.... So don't pretend your a loyal Canadian, who supports our military, your just a wanna be...who does not have the qualities it takes to serve...How do i live with myself, i do all right, i take a pocket full of meds to sleep , i have access to free prescription weed, and i volunteer at a private veterans center and local food bank...I'm own my own home , i pay my taxes, and spend my time with my grandchildren, fishing and hunting....What is it that you have done to serve the nation again? ...thats what i thought...your more of a chirper than a do'er -
Does it sound like i was making excuses ? or are you telling me that Canada is taking it's global responsibilities seriously and trump's demands are not valid at all.... Canada created this problem by cheaping out on its entire security apparatus, which has been recognized by the US and our NATO allieds for decades they have politely asked us to solve those issues...to which Canada has ignored, or refused to take any action on these files....now that we we are being told , fix it or face tariffs your pissed...why? Yes Canada is a NATO member, barely, Justin signed an agreement to meet 2 % of GDP by 2024, he got home and said he had no intention of meeting that goal ever.....I asked myself why go to NATO HQ sign documents that agreed to make the 2 % mark then come home and say Screw that....why not refuse to sign the paperwork...Basically we told nato TO SCREW OFF long ago, now is not the time to then hide behind we are a founding member of NATO, when we can't even make the basic requirements of membership that WE help establish....your talking from both sides of your face here...want to be treated as a member meet the requirements or drop out it is really that simple... The US is tired of paying the most of the bills , not sure why you can't see that or understand their anger...Canada is not an entitled state, it needs to live up to it's global responsibilities, pay it's share or move on....you should be pissed at OUR government for not doing it's federal responsibilities...instead you and many others are whining about what the big bad US is doing...instead of working on a solution to the tariffs...

I think the US has long ago been frustrated with paying for everything, and Trump is a businessman and the business case makes no sense, and he is telling everyone the free ride is over...time to man the F8ck up and start paying your share.... Canada is the perfect example of this...taking full advantage of the US generosity.... I don't think your going to find much sympathy south of the border as it is their tax dollars Canada has been taking advantage of.... I'd hang on to something the ride is just begun...

Your right which is why we need an election right now...Whats scary is justin and ford are preparing to do battle with the worlds largest economy thinking they are going to win....we are but a flea on a rats a$$...think we have the resources to match anything they (US) could do to us...that's scary.... We have been ignoring the reason why we are facing tariffs in the first place, it was spelled out loud and clear, and instead of coming up with a detailed plan to fix it and using common sense , we are beating our chests and preparing to fight them tooth and nail....Everything is on the table.....Thats not stepping up or leadership thats suicide ....Thats scary that you think it is a good thing... -
It is always greener on the other side of the fence Europe is not the golden goose you may think it is, they have their problems as well, for years they to have been ruled by the left, we are now seeing more governments that are on the right or even far right, not everything is rainbows and unicorns in Europe...UK left for a reason... US is our allied, and is doing Canada a huge favor by forcing us to get our sh!t together, and start taking our global responsibilities seriously... Seeing how we have not responded to the polite poking from past Presidents and other NATO allied nations have been doing for decades...We have taken advantage of them for decades, and enjoyed giving them the finger or just ignoring them when it benefits us.... Now Canadians are pissed they don't have a choice, we have been given a time out...fix it or they will destroy our economy....And instead of listening to what the US is saying coming up with a plan to fix it, we are preparing to do battle with the world's largest economy thumping our chests...think we are going to win this hands down...tit for tat...Your a ****** if you think we are going going to win this, unscathed...we are the Ant in this battle fighting the elephant...

Liberal Party Leadership Race
Army Guy replied to NAME REMOVED's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
The Canadian left are retards, and will place their votes with the liberals despite what they have done to this country already...They are blind to everything that has gone wrong with the nation under the liberal rule.... They are terrified of what PP is going to do....They think PP eats small babies for breakfast, think he is going to take away all their social programs, cut pensions, and raise the retirement age, enslave them , then sell them to the inuit...they are more concerned about what THEY are going to lose, and have not even thought about all the costs these simple programs cost the nation.... -

Army Guy replied to NAME REMOVED's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
we will see how much confidence they have after the election....you call it confidence i call it arrogance...Any ways their time is done , it is time for the conservatives to take the reins, and hopefully they will fix a few things along the way... Sure , Canadians had to put up with the UUUMMMS and AAAHHHS of justin for years, you'll get over his voice. Oh and PS he is going to be the next PM...like it or not... -
Israel and Hamas hostage-ceasefire agreement
Army Guy replied to carepov's topic in The Rest of the World
Not much to celebrate, their city lays in ruins, it's winter, most if not all of the critical infrastructure is in ruins, most of their veteran fighters are dead, getting back a few thousand POW is not enough to resume the war with any positive results...and if history is any indication it won't be long before both sides are killing each other again... -

The government is not functioning as it should. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/prorogue-parliament-canada-meaning-1.7412120 You make it sound like i was somehow making this process more difficult....I had nothing to do with it, Justin is responsible...just as he is responsible for the current state of the country, why we are so weak, his actions are why we are in this position right now....And you right i despise everything about the liberals, me and more than 50 % of the country...And no i don't trust him or his MP to fix anything about this issue, YOU have to ask yourself does the liberals have a track record of improving our nation, getting things done...not really... Your right talk is cheap, remember sunny ways, and all his promises....broken dreams... So will PP fix everything, i can't say for sure, i hope he does improve on many things...all i know is this country needs a change, and if not PP then who, the NDP, green party, -
Canadians will pay the price for not building pipelines.
Army Guy replied to blackbird's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Storm the parliament sure thing....lefties don't have the balls to storm a snow fort...As for flapping his gums, according to the polls he is on the way to a super majority, who or what will stop him from doing anything, i mean if we look at what justin has gotten away with....there is no limit....and if the notwithstanding clause is needed it is there...AAAHHH the emergency powers act, justin used things like storming the parliament kind of fall in that category...lets not forget calling the tanks in to f*ck things up because someone had a nazi flag or was blaring their horn all night....... Once elected and with a majority he can pretty much do whatever he wants... As for Alberta....something you have not figured out yet it Alberta does well so does the rest of the country....and i thought we were united....Ask Quebec how they would feel if equalization payments were to stop...or the atlantic provinces...Right now we pay Saudis for their oil in the maritimes at market value....when we could be refining good alberta bitumen at 1/3 of the price...i know screw them Albertans even if the rest of us pay the price...One pipeline does not make it even, not even close...but then again, screw them guys right....And he Justin is the problem and if you can't see that you are what is wrong with the nation....yes sir...you...and everybody that voted for the left....you should wear that badge because you earned it... -
Yes but Thats what the left wants, i mean they have voted for these guys 3 times in a row....I keep saying this but this is how Canadians want their country....they want handouts, social programs, they don't have a sense of patriotism, the hate our military or any thing associated with it, they don't care our nation is a haven for terrorist and criminals, we bring in immigrants from countries that do not share any of our values, or culture, we allow terrorist supporter to terrorize canadian minority groups, the list goes on and on.... we as a nation are so fractured we can't not even talk to each other in a civil tone.... I ask myself many times is it even worth the effort to save this nation, the way the people are today... the nation has no place in their bubbles, they don't care about anyone but themselves....or their little worlds....maybe it is time to see what is next whatever that is.... I think you'll find we are the nation that is on fire...and nobody can even see the flames....and the majority of Canadians don't care...

they are just words...of course we are at our weakest right now, and trump has nothing to loose right now he knows he has 4 years, to do whatever he wants....he smells blood...and we gave him this opportunity on a golden platter...with a golden spoon....Thats all on the liberals....this is the consequences of elected this government 3 times...what did you think was going to happen, we already watched trump 1.0 we knew what he was like, Justin pissed him off many times, and now it's pay back....and justin is not going to pay like you say we are....Thats stand up and give a round of applause to the liberal/NDP governments...thanks Trump really does not want Canada as the 51 st state we have more negatives than positives... -

I get trumps dates for tariffs, and i get when we can have the election....We are not going to have a united response in 8 days...not sure why you can't see that....You forget parliament is prorogued until then,so anything requiring funding or new policy or new laws is not going to happen anyways...we are going to eat tariffs regardless....Trump smells blood and he is going to get his pound of flesh....As for becoming the 51 st state we are making this way to easy for him aren't we....we are divided , we have a weak economy, weak dollar, weak leadership our government is not functioning....every department is broken.....please explain how we remedy that in 8 days....We have placed our faith in the liberal government for far to long...they need to go right now.... It means Conservative party is going to concentrate on all the points the liberals have screwed up and present a much better case than the liberals...he is not going to stop at a 1.35 billion con job on border security....he is going to fix what is broken....We would not be here if we as a nation took our responsibilities seriously....even now we are only doing the minimum to fix the problem.... https://thehill.com/policy/international/5072858-canadas-conservative-leader-slams-trumps-51st-state-idea/ -

Not true, a few Black hawk helos is not going to satisfy Trump, he is going to want more than a simple 1.3 bil in new investments....he has also mention our artic defences, our entire security apparatus....he is going to want to see major improvements...And before we can get a working government that can pass bills and policies to make this happen is going to take months of tariffs.... and whatever Canada comes up with is not going to change his mind...He will get what he wants...and he doesn't care if he destroys canada in the meantime.... -

https://abacusdata.ca/canadian-politics-abacus-data-january-2025/ I also thought i heard that Quebec's Premier also does not like the plan( not sure i can not confirm)....the liberal coalition is slowly falling apart...The majority of Canadians DO NOT want the liberals handling this file...parliament is prorogued, and can not function, it can't pass bills, it can't do anything...We should be concentrating on getting the liberals out of office, and allowing the government to operate... As for PP he has said over and over again, that he is almost on the same page... -
Trump is slashing through red tape by the truck load, slashing DEI practices, LGBTQ polices ,Climate change initiatives, concentrating on getting their resources to market slashing rad tape holding these new programs back...Are we also going to look at what is being done and copy many of these things...just to keep up....Right now we can't get anything done in short time periods, unless your the RCMP and buying a few helicopters that we can do....but anything else is going to take decades to get pushed through..... Maybe this trump administration is going to benefit Canada in ways we can't imagine right now...

Fair enough but do you think that the liberals can unite us....as they are currently the government ....personally i don't think so....i think we are going to bleed under the liberals in the coming months until the conservatives get in , will they be able to reverse any of it, i don't think so.....Why would trump reverse that deal if he gets what he wants.... -

What a load of crap, this is another example of just how we are so divided, lets put everyone into a pigeon hole shall we....that you personal don't like....lets attach a label to them and then tell them they are traitors, or don't like their own country....I personal think Canadians do not put in enough time or effort to whom they are voting for thats why we got a government that made it its sole goal to divide this country into pieces....much like your doing here... -
Liberal Party Leadership Race
Army Guy replied to NAME REMOVED's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
It doesn't really matter whom they chose, unless some miracle happens the liberals are not going to be in the race at all...how bad their loss will be is only a matter of time....And if Carney was smart he would not be running this time, and have his name attached to such a huge loss...he would be way smarter to wait a couple of months and try and build his party in his image.... Liberals are going to have the same problems the conservatives did while looking for the right leader to win an election, hopefully this will take at least a decade to do...
