Psst. Want to buy a nearly new vehicle?

[taxme]

Your tax dollars at work. According to Brian Lilley of the Toronto Sun the government you appear to trust so much is selling off a brand new fleet of vehicles that they of bought for the leaders of the G7 Summer in Charlevoix, Quebec to drive around in last summer for a two day summit. Apparently, your federal government is trying too off load some 631 vehicles that were bought for that summit meeting which cost the taxpayer's $23 million tax dollars to buy. In that fleet of cars are vehicles like 154 Chevrolet Surburbans, 140 Touring models Chrysler 300's, 43 Mitsubishi Outlanders and so many other expensive cars that are now up for sale and there is no doubt about it that they will be going sold off for a steal of a deal. And we thought that car salesmen were bad. 

The Summit only lasted for two whole days and only involved 7 G7 leaders. I wonder how much it cost you and me the taxpayer to have to house and feed these slouchers also? Our dear prime mistake of Canada already has his own fleet of vehicles which he could have used instead. But no, and typical with all politicians? They say let's go blow some more taxpayer's tax dollars. Taxpayer's don't care anyway. They never say anything. Just keep them busy with bashing Trump and do not tell we the stupid sheeple anything else that they really should know about.  

So, the federal government(taxpayer's)bought all those vehicles for two days to run around and having fun at the taxpayer's expense. Trump is so right. We have politicians who are really all about and all apart of the swamp. This is a crime and it should be treated as a crime. For our federal government to be buying so many vehicles for a whoopee-tee-do two day summit is theft of taxpayer's tax dollars and this present dear leader of ours should be arrested and charged for the wasting of taxpayer's tax dollars. If only it could happen. While thousands of Canadians are in need of some money to live our politicians instead prefer to throwaway  $23 million tax dollars for a nothing event. An event that nobody really knows what it was all about. 

Any comments about how this disgusting display by our politicians of how to waste taxpayer's tax dollars? This makes me really mad. Are you mad? Over?

1) I agree, the RCMP should be ashamed of themselves. Too bad this wont stick to JT. 

2) You really should cite, I heard about this last week. 

3) Trump is wasting oodles of money deploying troops to sit around to assist border security as a Political stunt to scare people about this Caravan. So I wouldn't say Trump is a fiscal hawk, the US government's deficit spending for a month.

So what exactly does Trump have to do with this? Did he perhaps call Trudeau first and say "hey, you know what? It would be double plus good if you bought a shit load of vehicles to use for two days". If not then your Trump stuff is just a feeble and transparent distraction from the actual subject.

[cannuck]

This is something that bothers me to no end.   It is almost as if the entire government and all of its bureaucracies have never heard of Hertz, Avis, etc.  Clearly, what they HAVE heard of is how to dig deeply into my back pocket.

That was in response to the OP claiming Trump has somehow "drained the swamp". 

Unreservedly this was an dumb thing for the RCMP to do.

I'm furious. Politicians don't care about the people. Thats why I keep saying everybody needs to put in a blank ballot (none of the above) then make sure to back up your decisions when these pieces of dog exhaust try and say they were elected with a majority

It should be our politicians who should be totally ashamed of themselves for this waste of taxpayer's tax dollars. We the people will only ever get the finger from those people. The leftist liberal media will never point this out and make a big deal out of it. The media appears to only want to bash conservatives. JT will not pay a price for this. The media treats JT as their darling. 

I did cite it. Brian Lilley of the Toronto Sun. 

Why are you bringing up Trump and his spending habits here anyway? Is it costing you something? Are you just looking for another excuse to bash Trump again? All Presidents before Trump have tried to build some kind of border wall to keep out illegals. But because Trump is doing it, he is a bad person and is even called a racist. Our prime mistake of ours spends nothing on border security here in Canada. He even welcomes illegals to enter Canada illegally and it is costing the taxpayer's of Canada hundreds of billions of our tax dollars to try and  keep them happy. I just thank gawd that this caravan is not headed for Canada. Could you afford to take in up to approx. 5000 illegals into Canada and feed, clothe and house them for years? I bet you are not in favor of that happening. So why mock and attack Trump when he wants to try to do something about illegal immigration into America. This has absolutely nothing to do with politics but more to do with border security. It is the American and Canadian lying media that is trying to build a mountain out of a mole hill on this caravan issue. Pathetic.

Dam good point. Why not rent a vehicle from a car rental agency? But, as we have seen many times in the past, when did our dear leaders ever give a chit about how they blow our tax dollars. Politicians are not well known for using their brains when it comes to taxpayer's tax dollars. Pfff. What's another twenty three million tax dollars down the drain. Hey, if it helps make the banksters richer, well so what, who cares. It would appear as though it is all about making the globalist bankster elite rich and happy and in the money, honey. Lol.  

I just checked all my pockets and both my front and back pockets are empty. I have been robbed. Call the RCMP. Arrest all those useless scoundrel politicians.

Actually, it is the bureaucrats that do this.  Politicians just don't give a flying purple frick about it, and sure as fell never know enough about their ministry to keep this kind of crap from happening.

A good friend of mine once ran for provincial leg.   He was elected (I was his campaign manager) and became Minister.  Day one, right after being sworn into cabinet, we all sat down with his DM, ADM and senior staff.  They told him they would now tell him how his department worked, but he shocked them all by telling them "it's been a long, hard campaign, so I am going to take month off to recover".   The bureaucrats just started wringing their hands with joy - a new Minister even more uninterested than the last.  They would have their way with this dumb farmer.   A month later, he walked back in and opened the meeting with: "I have met with every employee of this department over the last month, so sit down with me and I will tell YOU how this department is going to work."   He did.  A lot of heads rolled, the department went from being headlines for the wrong reasons and started to show up a very good news stories - including those about how much spending had been reduced.

Not all politicians are idiots and assholes.

Most Canadians will never learn or get it. The reason for that is that the majority of Canadians only get somewhat interested in politics when an election rolls around. The day after the election it's back to business as usual where they could not give a chit as to what goes on with their tax dollars or their country. They tend to enjoy commenting on American politics rather than what goes on in their Canadian politics. I guess that our Canadian politics is really that boring, eh? Lol. 

If Maxine Bernier is on the ballot I will vote for him. Otherwise if not it will be "none of the above". The rest can go take a short walk of a tall mountain. They have shown me over and over again that they are not all that concerned or interested about Canada or Canadians but are more interested in the rest of the world. Globalism, multiculturalism and diversity is their only strength. In everything else political they are weak as a new born puppy.

I must agree with you. I supposed that there are some hard working and honest politicians out there but no doubt they are few and far between. Great to see that there is at least one politician who actually gives a crap. Now if only the rest were like him maybe something would get done properly for a change in this country and start saving taxpayer's tax dollars. 

So just who is this guy?

He is sadly long ago deceased.  But, we sure raised a lot of shyte when he was "inside".

Yesterday a work-mate of mine who started a two-week holiday told me he was going to Thailand. I asked him what was there about. He said that just for the sake of it.

I was kind of thinking, wait a minute, a work-mate of mine who makes the same money as I do goes to Thailand just for the sake of it when he obviously is not going to row there or even go by ship but most probably going to fly there and fly back again.

What were we told about the harmful effects of aviation? It is so ingrained in our western psyche that it is our human-right to fly all over the skies to places just for fun that I am just eagerly waiting for the green-politicians who will win the next elections here in Finland either to stop people from travelling for fun or, more likely, pretending not to see as telling people to stop travelling for fun isn't going to win you a lot of votes especially as those very same green politicians do it themselves as well.

However, the hypocrasy is just delicious. The same green politicians who are fighting climate-change are posting on their instagramm-accounts pictures of their holidays in sardinia, Corsica or some other placwes where I suspect they did not row into.

Most environmental organizations act pretty much like a communist government would do. They dictate chit to the people thru laws and rules and regulations with crap and people eat it all up like candy. Tell them that cow farts are ruining the environment and they will believe it no matter how stupid it sounds and is backed up by the likes(millionaires)of David Suzuki and Al Gore. Most of all those laws and rules and regulations are part of the globalist program and agenda for control over we the people. Some people are denied the right to build something on newly purchased land just because it might effect some water flow or some fish or bird habitat. Canada and Finland would not be built up like they are today if way back when we got all worried about the water, trees and fish. Climate change is all bull chit. And if there is any change anywhere it is all due to mother nature and not man/woman. We have very little impact on the environment. And believe me when I say that if man/woman went too far in trying to destroy the environment the old gal will straighten that out very quickly. When more so called greenhouse gases are released in the air the more trees are grown to suck those gases up. It all works well for mama earth.

Too bad that my step-dad is dead as he was an eager traveller and I can just imagine what he would say today about the claims that aviation pollutes the environment and people should reduce flying or preferably give it up altogether. If he were here today he would really say what he thinks of those green politicians.

At least here in Finland the greens are the descendants of communists. In West-Germany the greens were founded with a help by Stasi of East-Germany with sole aim to subvert the West-German society.

Never trust those commies. They will lie to your face and when your back is turned against them they will give you the finger. They must never be trusted as communism has shown us many times that they will say to you that we love you but behind your back they are plotting your demise and slavery. The lying liberal leftist media will tell us that the Nazis were oh so bad but always like to over look the fact that the commies were worse than the Nazis. The commies have been responsible for hundreds of millions of murders all over the world for decades but yet they will still allow communist party's to exist. But say anything that might appear to be showing some interest in Nazism for historical reasons and boy look out. It will be condemnation or it will be off to the gulag for you. Strange world indeed. 

[taxme]

The liberals here are very quiet on this one? They must be really embarrassed over this and cannot come up with any justification for it? Truth does hurt at times for those dear snowflakes. Aw well.

The money paid for these vehicles, is that over and above the high amount of money spent on the G7 summit?
