There was a string of 27 consecutive federal budget deficits from 1969-70 to 1996-97.

I responded to your post which was: "When Trudeau started his war on domestic energy, not only did he make energy consumption more expensive for Canadians, he also made it more expensive for businesses, and their higher cost to do business was passed along to consumers as well, raising the cost of everything. Then Canadians end up with less disposable income, there's less money going around (aside from what's spent paying off loans, and Canadian companies are even less competitive. If you wanted to draw up a plan for "How to screw an economy" on the board, raising energy prices only falls behind water/food shortages on the to-do list.

Canada’s ability to pay its debts (debt and deficit to GDP) looks pretty rosy compared to most of the G7. Why does everyone ignore our fiscal situation compared to other countries? Quote

Deficit upon deficit upon deficit until it reaches the level it now. Absolute nonsense. Correction run mostly deficit-free budgets, although in fairness he did steal most of his Surpluses from unemployment insurance, harper ran three surpluses as well and when the economic times forced him into deficit he immediately developed a plan to get back to surplus and followed it Meanwhile borrowed more than double the amount of money that every single government and prime minister before them have borrowed combined. So no. 8 minutes ago, TreeBeard said: Canada’s ability to pay its debts (debt and deficit to GDP) looks pretty rosy compared to most of the G7. Why does everyone ignore our fiscal situation compared to other countries? That excludes the provincial debt. At the end of the day there's just one taxpayer so you would have to include that and when you do we are in shit. Also they picked three of the worst Countries to look at. Everybody knows and says that Japan has had it for a disaster it just hasn't landed yet. United states is in real trouble and people comment about that all the time but they can get away with a hell of a lot more because they are an anchor currency. And the UK has been a hot mess ever since Carney started as BOE head. Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data

Here are the facts Sounds like the misinformation is coming from the CBC They admit that the conservatives have made no such claims at all. And then they go on to say "Some people without identifying their source or any of these people or where they are saying this So like two guys in Reddit say this and CBC writes a story. And they quote 1 person on x. But yean, misinformation is just FLYYYYYYING around. Meanwhile Carney says it's a "fact" pp will ban abortions. But no 'misinformation' there.

Sorry to hear about your frustration Once again you made a retarded statement that was easy to disprove. And once again you're mad and you want it to be my fault and it isn't. Canada has had lots of budgets in the last 30 years that were not deficits. In fact we've had surpluses since the 90s except for during the great recession, and then we had small ones and we balanced the books within 5 years. Until we got trudeau. Then back to record deficits and borrowing more than every single prime minister before him combined and working hard on borrowing DOUBLE the amount every prime minister before the liberals borrowed.

But, all in all, you are still a LOSER Oh and knowing how much you hate facts , while Canada may have had a few years of balanced budgets, the deficit from previous years remained and has only grown. And, just to pi$$ you off, the only surplus budgets since 1962 were with Chretien and Martin...both liberals LOL https://www.cbc.ca/news/multimedia/canada-s-deficits-and-surpluses-1963-to-2015-1.3042571 Edited Sunday at 01:14 PM by ExFlyer Quote Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

It's absolutely chronic with you, and you being a supposed adult? This is why people question whether or not you are a preteen living in your mom's basement in reality You have these little emotional breakdowns and stomp your feet and slam your hands down and demand everyone else around you is a loser while crying your eyes out. Then you go on for 14 pages we are silly little cry for help posts where you basically are begging the other person to stop being mean on you followed by a picture but you dig up on the internet while at the same time claiming that you couldn't care about any of it despite having invested that much time and energy It's pretty much the definition of a hissy fit. Grown men don't behave that way. Most grown children don't behave that way, I don't know where the hell you're parents were but mine wouldn't have tolerated that kind of behavior out of me after the age of seven.
