SpankyMcFarland Posted April 17 Report Posted April 17 (edited) This night wasn’t just about attacking the Liberals of course. Poilievre needed to depress the BQ vote and Singh needed Poilievre to scare people on healthcare. Carney won by not losing. Edited April 17 by SpankyMcFarland 1 Quote

SpankyMcFarland Posted April 17 Report Posted April 17 Poilievre has to sparkle tonight but he would have been better off establishing a warmer persona before this and ‘reluctantly’ going into full snark mode in the debates. As it is, any sharpness now may deter some of the voters he needs against his reassuring, avuncular opponent. 1 Quote

Amateur hour at the Green Party HQ. Aside from the hypocrisy of banning them as they didn't run candidates in ALL ridings, when the BQ only runs them in the 78 Quebec ones.... could be avoided by minimum number of MPs. Then we'd see the occasional debate with no Liberal or Tory candidate. Or just be honest and say no for no reason, as the Greens are pretty irrelevant to that debate anyway. Quote

The criteria s written down. Parties must meet 2 of the 3. The Bloc does, the Greens don’t. It’s not for no reason, obviously. 1 Quote

According to you, having fewer debaters doesn't give each one more time. So if there were only 2 parties debating, they wouldn't each have more time to attack each other? 60 minutes each compared to 24! Even you can't be that stupid. You lie to us all the time - at least stop lying to yourself. Dumbass! 4 hours ago, CdnFox said: it isn't easy being a leftist these days. It's very easy thanks to id*ots like you on the right Quote

According to you, having fewer debaters doesn't give each one more time. No that was the mistake you made. I never said any such thing. I referred to the group and I am 100% correct Not only am I correct about it you've already admitted that and complained about how it's such a small difference it doesn't really make a big difference. Then you realize that doesn't matter you just admitted I was right I said : "No it doesn't give the other parties any additional time at all." You said it did. And you were SOOO proud of yourself, tried to do the whole 'count the apples' thing... and then i pointed out you are entirely wrong LOL The other parties don't get any additional time to attack, they actually get less Simple math and you got it wrong "If I have 2 pies, cut one into five slices and one into four, and take one slice away from each, which one is bigger after?" That's an elementary school question and you got it wrong LOLOL And yes I will be Laughing at you about this for quite some time Expect it to come up frequently. When you say something stupid i'll just say "hey kid, which pie is bigger?" LOLOL Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data
500channelsurfer Posted April 18 Report Posted April 18 Did anyone else notice the background in the debates had five dotted stripes in the background? One for each political party including green for the Greens. CBC said they produced the debates. Maybe they were sure the Greens would be invited and it was too late to change the background, or someone wanted to remind viewers the Greens were not there throughout. Quote

Well the greens were invited and had originally said that they would meet the criteria, it was literally the day of the french debate when they were told they couldn't participate because they didn't meet the criteria. So i'm sure it was a case that it was too late to change. Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data

I was expecting too much. Oh I understand fine. You've realized you were wrong and you look like a complete retarded loser. So you're trying to move the goalposts. As I said, the opposition parties do not get more time to attack, they get less. As I have posted twice now that is what I said and that is the truth. You got confused and gave math for the WRONG THING and screwed up Now you're furious because you know you look stupid and your ego can't take it Because you couldn't figure out which pie was bigger after a slice was removed The opposition parties have less time to attack the liberal then they did before. That's pretty simple math. Maybe you could find a grade 3 teacher to explain it to you. Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data

Yes, they are dropping candidates in a number of areas in order to help the liberals win But even still they are still running more candidates than the block is. This was obviously a decision strictly to help the liberals solidify the left vote and make sure there were no distracting voices. They still need all the criteria I hope Elizabeth May realizes that the destruction of her party when they become utterly irrelevant might very well be the price they pay to buy carney his chance to rape Canada We know that the liberals, the NDP, and the greenies are all going to gang up on the conservative party. But what else can we expect from those three Marxist party's that despise freedom and freedom of speech and assembly. Those three Marxist party's only believe in three things for Canada. More government, more taxes, and less freedoms. We have only one chance left to help save Canada, and that is to get the conservative party to win a majority in the election. Canada cannot survive another 5 years of WEF globalist Marxism. The destruction of old Canada started decades ago, and it will be totally destroyed with another left wing liberal government having 5 more years to finish Canada off. If you believe in less government, less taxes, and more freedom, then vote Conservative. If you want more WEF globalist Marxism policies then vote Liberal. The latter will continue on with it's woke and broke communist policies. We will all lose, even the imbeciles that will vote for the liberals. Just my opinion. Quote

So they had the commissioner of the commission on the vassey show yesterday and his answer about this was quite interesting. He said they hadn't had enough seats yet, but that they had turned in the paperwork for enough seats but as is often the case there were little details that need to be ironed out with each of the applicants. So in other words the greens were going to be running in enough writings to qualify, but they were sorting out a couple of paperwork issues and what the commission had agreed to do is that for any party that was going through this because it's so common as long as they promised they were going to be running candidates in enough ridings and turned in the names of the people who were going to be running it was all good So they were letting the greens proceed on good faith because the greens did have enough seats even though some of them had not properly completed their paperwork and but were in the process. He said directly and specifically more than once that the reason they denied them is because the green co-leader specifically said that they were deliberately deciding not to run candidates in all the writings in order to allow the liberals to win And that made them think that they couldn't be trusted on some of these names they had put forward and they were no longer certain that they would meet the criteria eventually or that they were trying to So that's what led them to just allow them, specifically was the claim that some of their writings wouldn't be fielding candidates in order to let the liberals win, and they did not know which ones they were going to allow or not and they felt that this completely flew in the face of their commitments So they were literally disallowed because they had said they were going to do strategic voting games. Lassie noted that many people had claimed that they had also been pressured by various parties, and he didn't really comment on that other than to say his decision was based on the greens saying they weren't going to be running candidates in every riding without telling them which ridings they were and not. I still feel like it's questionable. It appears that the greens did meet the criteria as was originally envisioned and allowed for by the commission. Some of their candidates didn't have the proper paperwork absolutely completed yet but that is to be expected and the commission had previously said that that would be fine. I get the commission's point of view that the greens didn't provide them with a list of which writings they wouldn't run in so they couldn't be sure that they would meet the criteria but it still feels like gamesmanship and i suspect the 'other party protesting' was the libs and possibly the ndp Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data

It's very obvious that the person you're giving up on is yourself. You want it to be my fault that you can't figure out how big a pie is after a slice is removed. It isn't. You want to pretend I didn't say what I said so that you can argue with something else. I did say what I said. Your objects stupidity and inability to do math is not my fault. And if anybody needs sympathy right now it's your math teacher. Don't blame your level of stupid on me Pop quiz: what's bigger, 3/4 of a pie, or 4/5ths of a pie?
