Dave L Posted April 12 Report Posted April 12 9 hours ago, CdnFox said: It takes half the effort to Tell the truth as it does to lie. Course Connie needs to give more answers Half as many as Carney and 2/3 fewer than Blanchette or Singh. Your inherent fear of telling the truth, and the crap you constantly lie about. Pierre has been letting Canadians get to know him for well over a year and change. Even after Justin left he was doing interviews and talking to the media while the only media that carney talked to was the American and British. Kearney wouldn't even sit down with the media during his so-called leadership race. Everybody knows Poilievre. It's carney that's the unknown All elections expose the same things. The person you least want to get elected doesn't. 13 hours ago, WestCanMan said: Immature enough to talk like a little child, clueless enough to support a compulsive liar who prefers to live abroad than in Canada and locks people out of rallies in their own neighbourhoods.

There was one I saw that they polled almost 3X as many boomers as anyone else, thus the result that Libs were in the lead by far. I trust the rallies. Conservatives are having massive rally turnouts. I trust what I see on social media - Lib propaganda is dominating, but the comments under the posts are not favourable. If the polls this time around are as accurate as the last election they are pretty much saying the Cons have failed again to present a suitable leader. That is key. A leader who the people like. It has nothing to do with how much money they are saying they will give you. I live in the west and I am sick and tired of hearing the whining because they didn't elect a Con. If you want to be properly and fully represented in Parliament you have to vote differently from time to time as they do in the rest of Canada. Doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result is the definition of madness. 3 Quote

WestCanMan Posted April 12 Author Report Posted April 12 58 minutes ago, Dave L said: I really want to see the machine hooked up to your brain because it has not dealt with reality. Pollieivre has done nothing since he took over as leader, absolutely nothing other than get rid of his glasses. You are one vote and I am one vote. The polls are not on your side my friend. I don't need to check and see why. You know that Poilievre is just the leader of the opposition, right? What did you expect him to do, end the wars in Russia and Israel? PP has been and excellent leader of the opposition. His critiques have been accurate & poignant and he has handled questions from hostile reporters like a champion. I get that it's upsetting for cultists to see someone hold Trudeau's feet to the fire, but the CBC has been given hundreds of millions of dollars to look the other way. That's why they're basically ignoring Carney's lies, his conflicts of interest, and his close ties to China, while trying to make a big deal of the fact that some random dude donated money to the conservatives. CBC: "Oh my God, why doesn't PP vet every single one of the 37,000 people who donated money to him? This is outrageous! If he needed money, why didn't he just get a loan from the Communist Bank of China?" 1 hour ago, Dave L said: Our real hope it to prevent Pollieivre from doing just that and so far we are on track.

CdnFox Posted April 12 Report Posted April 12 1 hour ago, Dave L said: So you are of the belief that everyone or the majority of those who work at CBC are Liberals and not Conservatives. More accurately that they're not conservatives. They may support the liberals or the NDP or the greens but the vast majority of them want to see Conservative governments fail and there are plenty of examples Quote You and the Cons are picking on the wrong network. The CBC is not paid or owned by anyone but the citizens of Canada. That is false. They are paid primarily by the government. The government makes its money from the people of Canada but the people of Canada do not pay the CBC. However the bias doesn't need ownership. It doesn't even required a lot of organization. It requires like-minded people in the organization to allow it to happen and to want it to happen and as I say the examples are numerous. It's not even a debate at this point So what you did is take something that was not relevant even if it was true which also wasn't true and tried to base your argument on that. Not off to a good start Quote If you want to know why the polls are as they are, look at the people the west has running our provincial Governments. Smith and Moe. People see what they re doing and really don't like it. Regressive both of them. In both Provinces they had to change the parties names to get elected. Nothing to do with it. Smith and moe are running the provinces when the conservatives had a 20-point lead. So that blew your theory out of the water The poles are the way they are because and as the technical prime minister that puts carney at a severe advantage. He was hyped up by the media and became an instant Golden Boy celebrity. Now that he's opened his mouth and people are getting a look at him the poles are starting to dip and he's gone from strong liberal majority projected to liberal minority projected with 50 seats assigned which could put him into liberal minority position because they're too close to call. I know why the poles are the way they are. And frankly at this point I kind of like where they're going. If Connie has a bad debate it's going to be very very hard for him. As always trump remains the wild card, whenever he messes with Canada Carney's numbers go up a bit. Quote .Carney did the job they paid him to do and did a great job for them. I have no doubt he will do the same for us as Canadians. They're still paying him. And they'll be paying him when he leaves the office. As prime minister he might make as much as $300,000 a year. As soon as he steps out of being prime minister he will stand to make more like 3 to 30 million a year and a lot of that will depend on what he does as prime minister. Did you know Justin is currently making about 3 million a year from various companies that put him on his board and he does nothing and they made money from him while he was prime minister? You are literally putting the Fox in charge of the hen house. Notice how he's suggesting we should go to modular homes? His company owns massive modular home businesses. Same with heat pumps. He literally gave him an interview going point by point how he made a living talking governments into policies that his company was in position to capitalize on whether it was good for that country or not and he did that in England. I mean they're his words it's not someone else saying that. I have no doubt Connie will do a good job. But you don't understand what his job is going to be. His job is going to be screwing Canada over by setting policies the benefit his businesses but not Canada and siphoning money off into companies and organizations and Charities that will pay him huge amounts when he gets out and back into the private sector. That's how these things work Conservatives warned you about Justin Trudeau 10 years ago. You didn't listen and now our standard of living is nosediving in Canada is in real trouble. Now we're telling you again, don't be stupid carney is bad news. You need to pay attention Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data
WestCanMan Posted April 12 Author Report Posted April 12 58 minutes ago, Dave L said: I get it, you are angry the polls turned on the Cons. That is democracy. Denying everything does not make it so. You are angry because Carney removed PPs biggest promise. He was going to ax the carbon tax. You have to be in power to do that and Carney is. You're a babe in the woods, Dave.

Legato Posted April 12 Report Posted April 12 16 minutes ago, Barquentine said: Look it up. He funded the CBC every year in office. A lie doesn't become the truth just because you keep repeating it. Yes he did but reduced by $115m. This is what pisses people off..... The number of Canadian Broadcasting Corporation staff taking home a six-figure annual salary has soared by 231 per cent under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Last year, 1,450 CBC staff took home more than $100,000 in base salary, according to access-to-information records obtained by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. That’s a 231 per cent increase over 2015, when just 438 CBC employees took home a six-figure annual salary. Six-figure salaries at the state broadcaster cost taxpayers more than $181 million last year, for an average of $125,000 for those employees. “The CBC has been raking in big paycheques and bonuses while the taxpayers footing the bills have been struggling,” said Franco Terrazzano, CTF Federal Director. “Is anyone in government going to step in, stick up for taxpayers and put an end to the CBC gravy train?” The CBC also dished out more than $11.5 million in pay raises last year to 87 per cent of its workforce, according to separate access-to-information records. No CBC employee received a pay cut in 2023. All told, raises at the CBC total $97 million since 2015." https://www.taxpayer.com/newsroom/cbc-staff-with-six-figure-salaries-balloons-under-trudeau-government 1 Quote

Of course the CBC was funded by the federal gov't, because they're a huge money-loser and I notice that they're still around, but what Harper didn't do was give them over $1B right before an election, like the LPOC just did.

SpankyMcFarland Posted April 12 Report Posted April 12 (edited) Although Trump and Carney arrived like meteors into our political world, Poilievre should still have been better prepared in both style and content. His likeability was an obvious weakness from the day he became leader but was only a potential problem as Trudeau sank in the polls. With the benefit of hindsight, he should have been working constantly to improve that. Committed Tories are a little more than a third of the electorate. In the absence of a big NDP/BQ vote they have to make inroads into the right flank of Liberal support and there hasn’t been enough of that. The clear statement on abortion was one example of what is needed. If Poilievre wins he will have done so despite making it harder for himself. 4 hours ago, PIK said: Unions , police forces are backing him.

Is that supposed to be some kind of joke? FYI no one likes a guy who's lying to them (aside from maybe Justin), and that's all that Carney has been doing lately. His only edge in charisma is the fact that the CBC tells you that you shouldn't like Poilievre and that Carney is a-ok: Carney lies like a sidewalk, bungles around between conflicts of interest and foreign interference fiascos, makes diplomatic blunders like "acknowledging the Israeli genocide against Gaza", sending Canadian jobs to the US, etc, and then CBC says: "The polls show us that everyone LOVES Mark Carney, and look over here!!!! Some random dude just donated to Poilievre's campaign!!!!! That is a big deal!!!!" Do you think I'm wrong? What evidence do you have that people even like Carney, aside from the polling from LPOC cronies like Nanos? There's a thread about the relative character of Carney and Poilievre in this forum and there's not a single leftist here that will even try to make the case that Carney has more integrity than Poilievre. Not one. If even the most hardcore, propaganda-pushing leftists here can't come up with a single defence of Carney's character, what makes you think that undecided voters really like Carney more? What makes you think that the polling is accurate? Do you really think that undecideds are saying: "Look! Carney is ditching failed LPOC policies and putting Poilievre's policies in place! What a great leader he is!!!!" Of course not. If it wasn't for the polling, what evidence do you actually have that people like Carney more than Poilievre? Why should they? Why do you trust the polls that favour the Libs more than the polls that favour the CPC? Just remember, the legacy pollsters were all wrong in all of the recent elections....

If what you say is true why isn’t Poilievre winning easily? Or maybe you believe he is? We are not talking about the same thing here. I’m talking about likeability in particular and you are talking about perceived integrity. They are not the same. Every candidate needs to work on their weaknesses to maximize their appeal. Obviously Carney has many such vulnerabilities but Poilievre has had years to improve his appeal to female voters. I’m assuming you are male and older. Do you really think you are in the best position to judge how Poilievre comes across to female voters? Polls have had some problems in recent years but to claim there’s a deliberate bias in them is paranoid. Poilievre does not claim that himself. How am I to judge these matters without polls? I can also rely on what I see. What you like about Poilievre - for example, his ability to to come out with sharp rejoinders - may not appeal to everybody. Are you even open to seeing these things in your candidate? Edited April 12 by SpankyMcFarland Quote
