  1. Like anything the liberals do, half measures, and a dollar short...good thing we only invested 13 bil...maybe next year....and we'll see how much new people are allowed in then...I'm betting on more than a million in total......
  2. Well it seems that PM is not happy with all his MP, and is cleaning house some what...Not sure if this is getting rid of dead weight, or them not liking where Carney is going... I really hope there is more to come, bringing fresh faces with fresh ideas is always a good thing...
  3. From your source you provided.... I misread it as well, it is not 50,000 a year, but in total over the life of the project....the math just got worse... https://www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/news-releases/2025/09/14/prime-minister-carney-launches-build-canada-homes As Build Canada Homes begins to develop public land sites under Canada Lands Company’s portfolio, it will prioritize innovative, factory-built housing. To begin, Build Canada Homes will prioritize six sites to build 4,000 factory-built homes on federal land – with additional capacity of up to 45,000 units across the portfolio. In these projects, it will deploy a “direct-build” approach, overseeing and leading construction projects focused on affordable mixed-income communities. This first tranche of sites will be in Dartmouth, Longueuil, Ottawa, Toronto, Winnipeg, and Edmonton.
  4. How do you know he is doing fine ? nothing has been leaked in the media, or is that your opinion? Canada has very little chips on the table, it has even less when you consider things that Canada wants to protect, like dairy etc....The US is not interested in what carney has to offer....and it is costing Canada bils... You don't have to say anything, i get it your some what embarrassed to admit your a Justin supporter....I've voted my entire life conservative with one exception i refrained from voting when o Toole was running because i did not agree with his platform...I Canadian don't have to like PP, 41 % of Canadian did vote for them, Carneys numbers are not all that much more.....
  5. It is not my math.......If 200 K of new homes is not enough to satisfy demand now , at current levels of bringing in new people....which all combine is more than 1.5 million people a year...Carney has already cut numbers done to which he thinks is reasonable...and are still at well over 1.5 million a year....how does adding 50,000 new homes solve our current shortage....According to every one of those sources i listed there is a shortage of well over 200 K of new home each and every year....every year we don't meet those numbers our housing deficit grows larger.... https://www.cbc.ca/lite/story/1.7565525 https://www.cbc.ca/lite/story/1.7617849?feature=related-link https://www.cmhc-schl.gc.ca/media-newsroom/news-releases/2025/housing-starts-up-2-per-cent-2024-from-2023
  6. What i have said after 6 months all we have is lots of words and promises...I mean he was the guy most qualified for the job, his words not mine, He could handle trump, he was going to move at speed....people are waiting for something anything to happen...what we have seen so far is a couple of offices open up people assigned to positions .... OH i will be a professional in due time...give me a break....have you voted anything other than liberal....i doubt you have, proving my point, mickey mouse could be liberal leader and your vote for the mouse is understood...Harper is still living in liberals heads and will be forever....at least until PP becomes PM.......Justin's liberals used harper as a standing excuse for everything...you guys a funny sometimes...harper forgotten, really?
  7. We have more than 1.5 million new people coming in to Canada, each year....please explain to me if 49,000 homes do magically appear every year...how is this going to put a dent in our housing crises... when they refuse to drastically lower bringing in such high numbers....My math is bad , but it looks like liberal math is worse... And you projects list, Carney has already said it would normally take 4 years to get all the approvals completed for these projects, he has cut it down to 2....That list is still 2 years out before anything happens, and even then there is NO guarantee these projects will go ahead and get built...
  8. Why thank you for your permission by the way...don't watch Rebel news sorry to break your preconceived notion of what is a conservative.. You do a lot of that... jump to conclusions....Justin took 10 years to wreck this country, so ya you got a lot more complaining coming, and it is not just to complain, it is more to remind YOU and other liberal voters just how much thought you put into placing your vote knowing what the results would be.......that and you the voters could have stopped all of this destruction years ago....instead you continue to support the same circus that brought us to this point... SO please excuse us conservatives if we feel the need to remind you on a daily basis on just how stupid you really were....call it a teaching moment, that will be on repeat for many years...
  9. I know i should have pared it done, you have to know your audience i guess, So i have to ask was it the government that fired him or his company he worked for...just so we are on the same page....It is really looking like your not as smart as you think you are..
  10. It was not Jimmies platform was it, he was an employee , who I'm sure signed a contract, that spelled out the companies objectives what he could comment on or not, and I'm sure all of his material was approved by a higher authority...so he was not free to say what ever came to mind....most jobs have a code of conduct, so yes speech is limited , don't like it then find another job...or like jimmy was fired as he took it to far...Tell your boss to F off , or something to that effect and tell them that your using your free speech and see where it gets you...Are you from this planet ?
  11. No i don't believe the government should be controlling what is or is not free speech...But they have for decades years now...and have divided it into many categories....some of it is against the law...to use say hate speech or words that could be used in say verbal assaults in some cases...even used as sexual assaults...I do believe that any speech has consequences...if some man walked up to my wife and said nice t!ts mind if i touch them.......there would be consequences...
  12. This has got nothing to do with free speech, this has got everything to do with speaking his mind on someone else platform, that various types of speech is restricted....even free speech has consequences..
  13. Say it is not true, please someone tell me its not true that people on the left are being held accountable for what they say and do.....Like "everyone "should be...I was wondering why i kept hearing that popping noise all day...it was the lefties heads popping off....Who is going to clean up all that mess is what I'm wondering...
  14. Sorry liberals don't get a pass on Justin, you guys voted him 3 times.....3 Fing times....which means your slow learners or take the short bus to work.........Justin will be your anchor "forever"....and while Justin may be gone, his crew is still here....only the circus leader has changed the clowns are all the same... Lots of people are wondering, What's that mean, so he has a 58 % approval rating....according to the same poll Justin had 61 % on his first year, how did that turn out .....what is there to approve, or disapprove he has yet to accomplish anything of substance...when the budget comes in in Nov we will see how popular he becomes, and to top off all that there is the Tariffs that are still not any movement on that file...which according to the polls are not the number one issue today....the economy and affordability are the chief concerns....How do you think they are going to react once the budget is out.... https://globalnews.ca/news/11417373/ipsos-poll-with-mps-returning-carney-government-has-decade-high-approval/ well there sure is a lot of b!tching and complain about, maybe you liberals should try and make it harder by doing things...anything would be good...all we have heard is a lot of talking...And instead of you b1tching and complaining you should be educating us on what accomplishments have happened...but wait a minute, not much to talk about there...
  15. If there was a solution what is it, because we have not seen anything just yet, we have heard lots of things, but have not seen any action....and the people are wondering did we vote in the right guy ?
  16. Have they come out and said the details yet, rumors have it these homes will be built on government land, and rented....what have you heard ?
  17. There is still a lot of liberalism going on to keep liberals happy, and enough to keep conservatives posting here.... Still an industrial carbon tax, gun grab, massive debts, US tariffs, the list is still ongoing....that being said i hope the best policies keep being used ....but as far as both parties meeting in no mans land and giving out hugs and singing kum ba ya we are far from that happening....
  18. At least your still hopeful, but the funeral has already happened....
  19. Maybe it is time to start shrinking those transfer payments let Quebec and the Maritimes stand on their own feet...
  20. I thought thats where the sub tender comes in, he can perform much like AOR's only for subs...also able to carry spare parts and extra weapons as required...VLS tubes are a problem and can't be done at sea...or so they say... Attack helos have many different tasks, escort of transport helos is one of them, something we lacked in Afghanistan...you talked about call to fires AH-64E can put a lot of ordnance on target when needed, and can control loitering munitions and drones as part of its weapons packages...I think attack helos are here for a while longer... I think a lot of weapon systems are struggle for relevance due to drones...and most are making changes to their designs to incorporate them...like the tank, new designs are now coming our just to counter drones... I think not being reliant on one country or continent would be a good strategy, doing Korea for say naval items, however i still think the Type 212cd is the better boat , its delivery dates make more sense...Europe for ground systems, maybe even some aircraft....A400M looks good, as does the new gen 6 fighter aircraft... and America for Aircraft of all types...
  21. US produces some of the worlds leading in class military equipment, but lets not kid ourselves, not all of the US equipment is world class...some of it does not even rate in the top 5....And others get canceled before production even starts...and then there is production capacity which at the moment is severely hampering US military build up...for example China has 250% more ship building capacity as the US has....I mean Australia is looking for a nuke sub and the US is doubting it can provide because of lack of production capacity...And Britain well they to are working on a new boat...who knows when it will be completed...or in production... Yes the US is a military power that has a boat load of experience...I don't think anyone in the Canada has aspirations of defending against the US...and those that do are normally liberals who won't be doing any of the fighting anyways, they are good talkers, not fighters......The objective here is to arm ourselves with a modern military force that is capable of helping our allies when necessary...
  22. That's a stretch but OK, seems like a whole lot of money for maybe a once in a life time mission...Must be a huge change of minds in the political wings, i say that because we have passed on weapon systems in the pass because they were to offensive or offensive looking , like attack helicopters, MLRS, SPA, etc etc....so why the need for the ability to launch ballistic missiles...i would have thought it was way way to offensive... It is funny , but would come in handy in a pinch kind of like your ballistic missiles... Koreans make good products, their naval equipment is second to none, cutting back on our frigates and purchasing their latest destroyers makes a lot more sense, as even their copy of the Ardleigh burke is is less than 2.5 bil a piece and built on time and going with Korean subs does have many valid points....Europe does produce great aircraft, and are looking for new partners on their gen 6 fighters...they also have an excellent selection of army ground equipment....but Army air still needs to be addressed, and the best in the market is US equipment...
  23. I'm sure the nuclear option has been left out...and like most military's they are just glad they the politicians are looking at something...as right now west Edmonton mall has more active subs in the water than we do.... IS 3 weeks going to be enough, murphy law always throw something in the way every time it can, traversing the artic in the winter is a whole new ball game...and speeds under water are not all that fast...can they surface under a solid ice pack is the question resupply can always be down by air, like the Americans do for their fleet if they have to... Battery plants for the subs, or for EV,s i ask because Canada does not have a real good record with EV batteries plants.
  24. You should at least know something about the guy before you label him as you did, i offered you 3 separate videos as you asked did these types of people get an invitation, I have explain that no one needed a invitation, all people of all types showed up...And I've yet to find any examples of what you have personal called himor accused him off....your free to pick some out of the thousands of examples that exist....but NO you've been told or read some where that he is a disgusting individual and refuse to see if that is true....Not sure why your being so stubborn , or just plain leftist...as that's what they do...And i call you that because you've displayed these traits of a leftist over and over again... I was explaining to why i don't like leftist and am not fond of liberal practices...I did not ask you what you thought about them....just explaining my opinion, As for not labeling people without knowing them, 100 % right, its not a good practice.... but then again you did the same thing with Charlie ion my opinion.......Someone that i liked , and i did like most NOT all of his opinions....I am hard core in my political leanings , as the liberal government has not driven this nation in the right direction, in fact it has done nothing but to hurt it...In fact most if not all federal departments are in over their heads....one can look at our entire security apparatus, and just get depressed... I voted Conservative, but i like the fact Carney is not afraid to use conservative points to try and fix the nation....But Carney is on the clock and if he does not produce any results soon, he may find himself in trouble not only with his voters, but all the other parties as well and with his budget coming up for a vote soon, it could be a short career... How soon liberals are willing to forget past liberal governments, like it happened 10 or 20 years ago....Justin won 3 terms, there must be a red flag in there some where....And lets be fair the only thing that has really changed is the circus master, all the clowns remain the same for the most part...that explains the 4 th term concerns Conservatives have...... I really hope Carney does set us on the right track and he starts soon, as the country really needs to be rescued...and if he can't the left will be looking at another election and I'm sure Carney is not going to come out on top...and the left is going to live with having PP as a PM...
  25. What negotiation's are you talking about....Canada does not have a seat at any tables over there...she might be able to get a good deal on perogies but that it....Higher status than being an sitting MP really, ....sounds like a demotion to me, and i'm sure the pays are not the same . did any of you guys even check what he wrote...
