Therefore government stealing people's property to give to others is not "charity" or "helping the less fortunate". It is Communist, Socialist, or Marxist ideology. The Bible teaches personal charity done voluntarily. That is not the same as Socialism where government steals property or money from people to give to others, which you seem to approve of. By some estimates 133 billion illegally obtained dollars are being funneled and laundered into Canada. How would you feel about taxing that? 15%, the minimum rate a number of countries agreed to tax the biggest corporations at would net almost 20 billion for Canada. Or would that make us complicit in the crimes all that cheddar came from? We could always confiscate it and give it back.

It's technically one vastly underqualified Prime Minister signing a pact with a vastly underperforming leader of a fourth place party. This from True North : Last fall, the Conservative Opposition and then-leader Erin O’Toole claimed there was a brewing Liberal-NDP government agreement that would secure Trudeau’s hold on power for a full term despite his minority government status. The Conservatives were ridiculed and mocked by the media. Toronto Star columnist Althia Raj called the Liberal-NDP alliance “imaginary” and a ploy by O’Toole to cover up his own problems. Commentator Randy Boswell wrote in Global News that O’Toole was “scaremongering about the unholy alliance” of a radical Liberal-NDP deal. CBC’s Aaron Wherry stated that a Liberal-NDP deal was just “rumours” and that “no negotiations” were happening to reach a confidence and supply agreement. Lo and behold – earlier this week, the Conservatives were vindicated after it was reported that an official pact had been reached between Justin Trudeau and NDP leader Jagmeet Singh to prop up the Liberals for the next three years. true north copying anything from them is laughable . Liberals and ndp have alot in common lol its far from a radical deal. Edited March 25, 2022 by Jack9000 Quote PROUD NDP SUPPORTER. #SINGHOUT

herbie Posted March 25, 2022 Report Posted March 25, 2022 Oh who gives a shit what the Bible says about it? It certainly doesn't say shit about 'socialism' anywhere in it. You gonna tell us Tommy Douglas wasn't a "Christian" next? And of course anyone with zero political knowledge that can't distinguish Liberals from NDPs from communists would be stupid enough to describe a coalition as a dictatorship. My 21 yr old grandson was right: he could sell hats with "Proud to Be Ignurnt" online and make a fortune these days. Most of the buyers would swell their chest wearing one! Quote

Someone who actually wants to make life for Canadian better. Someone who can't be bought. Then...we should elect that person PM and let him have at 'er. Well, in the wake of so much acrimonious discourse over lying cheating politicians these last few years I'm honestly flabbergasted this story of Canada's corruption and money laundering for oligarchs hasn't been in headlines worldwide, caused Trudeau's government to be thrown out and for countries to consider placing sanctions against us. 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. Quote A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.

There is an intelligent answer, you get that from your kids, dad all you do is whine about how much things cost, just buy it the money tree out back is full of money.... So i ask you where is all this new funding coming from, are you cutting existing programs, or raising taxes, either you don't know, don't care, just spend it until the bank explodes...it is a very typical lefty attitude...Greece tried that i wonder how they made out...but it is all about you... i get it... 1 Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful.
