Sure you can, but people on the right tend to ask questions instead of jumping all in with out knowing things like cost , how many Canadians will benefit or how many require both these programs. It is like the day care program, only those that have a mean income of 36k, or less are eligible, and it only creates a couple thousands new slots per province, is it worth the 9 bil price tag to get it up and running , plus 3 bil a year to keep going...it sounds good on paper, but it does not cover most Canadians.... Most Canadians already have medical and dental coverage through jobs, provincial coverage, insurance etc...low income families are covered in most provinces... so who is this really for... Why not use that funding for boosting our health care at the provincial level...why are the feds stepping on the provincial toes here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin is actually more center then left in my opinion which is why i trend towards the NDP in most of there programs like dental and pharamacare .. PP talking about buying less foreign oil and getting a eastern pipeline is all great if it would happen but goodluck ever getting one thru quebec not gonnahappen no matter "how hard he trys".

Not all Canadians are covered through their jobs. A former colleague of mine, newly arrived from the UK’s NHS, prescribed fertility medication to a patient and was later confronted by her husband demanding to know who was going to pay for such an expensive drug. He had no idea that some patients have to pay for themselves here. Edited March 26, 2022 by SpankyMcFarland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpankyMcFarland Posted March 26, 2022 Report Share Posted March 26, 2022 What the Libs and NDP are doing is perfectly acceptable in a parliamentary democracy. In fact, most countries like ours are more relaxed about coalitions than we are, often between parties with far less in common. Regarding JT losing the popular vote, Mr. Harper seemed quite happy with our antiquated FPTP system while in office. I’d prefer a tighter grip on the budget but the people have spoken, have chosen a left-wing parliament and that is that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeitgeist Posted March 26, 2022 Report Share Posted March 26, 2022 The people didn’t choose an NDP government. The Conservatives got more votes than the Liberals who have swung further left to keep power by getting NDP support on all confidence votes. Canada is a left wing dictatorship because we have a government imposing policies on the population without the consent of the people. Oh yeah, Trudeau also trounced on peaceful protesters and citizens’ rights. The population is at the mercy of an irresponsible tyrant who tries to lecture other countries on the value of democracy. Our government is a sick joke. https://apple.news/AkpleuhZoSYi18XRI7IAlAA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is about the biggest kick in the nuts my faith in humanity's and especially Canadian's desire for better transparency, accountability and good government has taken. It's hard not to get the sense that Canadians who have looked at this story are quietly wondering to themselves where the downside is to $133 billion coming into Canada annually. It's dirty money? Pffft. Nobody cares. Apathy has set in. It's sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he was being slammed at the EU for his undemocratic oppressive treatment of protesters, he kept harping on about how 90% of Canadians are vaccinated, as though this would impress anyone or justify his mistreatment of Canadians.

He keeps repeating that phrase as an answer to nearly every question. I'm expecting him to comment on the Ukraine situation by telling us the war would be over if everyone just got vaccinated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure nobody but you guys care that Europe's far-right yelled slogans in the EU parliament for their base back home.
