Yes Liberals are quite right-wing too. It was a Liberal who brought prohibition to Canada in the first place. So where were Conservatives when that travesty of freedom and liberty was committed?

Let's try and remember that pot was considered illegal, meaning that you went in front of a judge, and the judge handled the sentencing...But hey let's blame the conservatives, but all the liberal government before harpers get a pass. See my post above. I blame right-wingers and Liberals and Conservatives, not conservatives and liberals - they're not always right-wingers by default you know?

Now that is a party you can get behind is it not, in over 6 years push one note-worthy piece of legislation through... Dental care has not been ben approved yet, however, 10 dollars a day of child care has, as long as you do not make more than 36 k a year. Which most Canadians do. As a party, the NDP is nothing more than a distraction, and this new coalition they formed is an example of that, good for the party, maybe not so good for Jagmet sing election chances next election.

Army Guy Posted June 6, 2022 Report Posted June 6, 2022 (edited) How can anyone say we are going to get tougher on gun crimes, while at the same time reducing sentences for most gun crimes. While just the other day our safety minister announce there will be tougher gun crime sentences...Sorry, either a huge miscommunication or incompetence, I mean how can the guy who is drafting all these new gun laws changes not be aware of what his government is doing on the justice side of the house... or is it just the same old story, with the 3 cups and trying to find the marble...I call it bullshitting myself, intentionally redirecting the Canadian taxpayer into thinking one thing while doing another... punishing legal gun owners while giving the criminals a break... I know it is in the Liberal character to fuck the ordinary citizen that follows the rules and then bleed tears for the bad guys...

I only like to give the pinko liberal conservatives a bad name and big time shit criticism. The real and true conservatives, like Maxine Bernier and Pierre Poilievre, well I reserve them for you to slander. And Ford ain't no conservative, pardner. Ford secretly is a closet lefty liberal like you are. Pretty much every political party in Canada has gone lefty liberal. . A vote for any political party in Ontario is just a vote for more liberalism and more socialism for Ontario. Only with the conservative party in Ontario, it's liberal socialism light, and that is what the people of Ontario keep getting. And if the PC party of Ontario were a real and true conservative party well now would be the time for Ford to start downsizing the public service by at least 80%, and start saving the Ontario taxpayer's billions of their tax dollars. Keeping the other 20% of government around is still a waste of taxpayer's tax dollars. But hey, eh? ? 1 Quote

Gambling too; creating a hopeless materialistic culture too; alcohol too - we must have the most expensive alcohol in the world. In many countries a bottle of good wine would be $4-$5 ; a beer will be 50 cents or less. And then they also want you to donate, everywhere and all the time.

babetteteets Posted July 12, 2022 Report Posted July 12, 2022 (edited) The authorities are constantly issuing laws aimed at restricting public access to firearms. And this is not surprising because shootings in public places have recently increased. I know people who are now afraid to leave their homes. I believe that guns should only be used defensively. That's why I have a 12 ga shotgun at home that I keep for self-defense. If someone breaks into my house with a gun, I should be able to protect my family. Edited July 13, 2022 by babetteteets Quote
