All he and Freeland can do now is try to remain employable and out of jail. Their power will diminish. Schwab is an old man. It’s over. you are still not answering the question since they don't pay you any interest, what is the upside to Canadian fiat currency held in a Canadian bank ? I don't see any benefit at all all I see is potentially very bad downside there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougie93 Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 the fake news lying state run media admits to a 5% inflation rate that means it's at least 10% in actuality so you are taking double digit losses on your currency devaluation the government can't be trusted, they've shown that they could seize your money arbitrarily without court order they track your money as if it is their money not yours if there is a bank run, you will be locked out, and CDIC is not even that secure anymore and they don't pay you any significant interest why are you holding Canada's paper in Justin Trudeau's banks : somebody explain it to me ?

Zeitgeist Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 Well the bank stuff was part of the Emergencies Act. You think Freeland is going to be able to get Parliament to make account seizures permanent? They’re so on the ropes. They’re trying to distract us with Ukraine but you and I know there’s no long term benefit to trying to get Ukraine into NATO. Actually I’d like Russia to cool it, respect Ukraine’s sovereignty, and eventually have a broader military pact that includes Russia. They’re good people. So are Ukrainians.

So are Ukrainians. still not seeing even one reason to hold Canadian dollars in a Canadian bank why not just covert that to gold, put it in a secure lockup ? again, the bank is not paying you anything to keep the fiat currency in the bank there is only risk in the fiat currency in the banks there is no benefit whatsoever you need a couple grand to carry in your pocket ? okay, cash out an ounce of gold; done but why would you hold your savings in fiat money in a Canadian bank ?

Dougie93 Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 maybe Canadians don't have any savings at all ? maybe they are just all debt ? just a mortgage they can't afford and credit card usury ? and that's not an economy on the verge of crisis ?

Dougie93 Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 why would the truckers be so desperate ? why were they not so worried about having their trucks seized ? could it be that they were bankrupt and going to lose their truck anyways ?

Well that would be true the world over, but don’t forget that investment almost always involves debt. Our banks wouldn’t exist without debt and there’d be much less construction or business creation without it. Having said that, our debt levels are so high that it seems only a certain amount of inflation will shrink the value of that debt, but inflation also raises the cost of living when wages don’t keep up. In relation to inflation rates you actually lose money keeping it in the bank with such low interest rates, which is why we keep borrowing to buy assets that we hope to sell or pay for at a later date. In order to unwind low interest rates we’ll need to find ways to lower the costs of goods and services and get people to buy stuff. It means removing carbon taxes, deregulating, and fully reopening the economy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re so on the ropes. Sen. Plett talked about this in his speech to debate the Use of the EMA. He flat out said making some of the things in the EMA permanent is government overreach. I'm with you - I used to think the Senate should be abolished. Now I see their importance.

Your perspective is as warped as the flight path of a boomerang. Do you not realize these Russians like Trudeau, are also protesting against Putin? That said I'll grant that these protesters feelings are probably more genuine than Trudeau's and definitely more genuine than the protesters that police arrested in Ottawa but...you really do need to get a better grip on what's happening.

I've been quite clear that I think Trudeau was a disaster long before COVID and given how much oligarch money from the region Canada is said to be laundering I have little faith in Trudeau or Ottawa's handling of anything to do with this really. My issue remains much the same as it has for some time now, that one of the main reasons Trudeau gets away with being a disaster is that the opposition against him is such a train wreck. And why is it that, because it's so saturated and possessed with retarded viewpoints that maintain Trudeau is a Nazi and that the entire left in Canada is 'with him'. The fact we're not overtly with you is all that causes you to think that btw - that's the lamest failing of hard-boiled conservative partisans bar none actually.

If you as a Canadian citizen are comfortable with seeing an old lady get run over by a horse or peaceful protesters get smashed across the head with a gun all because Drama Boy was too arrogant to meet with a convoy that traveled 4 or 5 days to get there then I think you sir are why drama boy gets reelected. Time to hold him to account. Too many "conservatives" without a spine and too afraid of the left calling them names.
