ExFlyer Posted May 27 Report Posted May 27 9 hours ago, Moonlight Graham said: Well the official opposition's job is to complain. To hold the government accountable. Could the CPC do a better job at providing specific solution proposals instead of vague slogans like "stop the crime, build the homes" etc? Yes absolutely. They do that because most voters will agree on reducing crime and building more homes, but not everyone will agree on the solutions to do it. The problem with the Liberals is that they have formed the government for 10 years now and their solutions which have been enacted policy have been largely failures. You can't blame the CPC for any of the failures of Liberal policy or their NDP partners who supported them. The job of "The Official Opposition's primary role is to scrutinize the government, offer alternative perspectives, and hold the government accountable." So yes, they can hold accountable but, they should also offer alternative perspectives and positions which is something the conservatives have never done. I have never blamed the conservatives for the failures of the sitting government, I have only said that they have done nothing to help.

But if the party in power doesn’t agree with their policy prescriptions there isn’t anything that they can do. The Liberal party is solely to blame for their policies, and the mess that Canada finds itself in. It’s not the conservatives fault that it took 6 years for them to finally eliminate the consumer carbon tax for example. Conservatives wanted it gone several years ago, but didn’t have the legislative power to do do. How??? What have they done to make Canada stronger?? What propositions, policies, directions, suggestions have they made? All parties in power, including Harpers, are to blame for failed policies.

He reports: "No homeless, no druggies, nobody trying to sell you things on the streets, no beggars, no pot smells, no ladies offering their love for money in sight, no drugs in schools, no loved ones overdosed. I got blood pressure medication at the pharmacy in minutes without prescription (modern medicine individually sealed). If only people realized how bad they have it in Canada." That's not necessarily all true, and even if it is true where he lives, China is a big place. Eg, what's true is Fort St John isn't necessarily true in Vancouver. Also, the problem with the Chinese gov't is that it has far too much power over its citizens. Even if the government is acting beneficially now, that doesn't mean that they won't be next year, and there's nothing that citizens can do about it. Having said that, it's clear that our own government acts directly against our own best interests here in Canada, and our elections achieved nothing to prevent that from happening again, so I can't sit here acting like Canada is better than China right now. 23 hours ago, ExFlyer said: Polarization has been rampant on this forum for years. Conservatives have displayed Trumpism for years. The glee is from them having lost the election and yet, they still carry on...so much like Trump supporters when he lost the election. I do not believe the Liberal government will be like Trump at all. I truly believe they will fight to be Canadian and stay Canadian. I also do not understand why some here will not wait to find out what the plan will be or is. Expecting instant results is not even logical, let alone achievable. Dealing with a bully is not a one off circus. It is going to take time. Anyway, I was not so sure about he conservatives so, for the first time ever, I voted Liberal. As for calling them LOSERS, well, the long time animosity towards some of the posters just had to be demonstrated. The fact they continue to retort and not accept the result just makes me have all the more fun with them :) Cultist dipsnit.

That is exactly what your doing, liberals did the bare minimum it could to stay in power, in fact the last 4 years NDP forced them to take action on a few files.... Opposition party does not run the governing parties agenda,or set policies the job of the opposition party is to hold the current government accountable for it's actions...and in the case of a majority just explain to us how or when the conservatives were needed to help....And i'm pretty sure during Covid all parties worked together to pass legislation needed. You blame them because you can't step back and blame those responsible becasue they are on your team...

Thats bull sh!t...In this country everyone has the same rights same opportunities as the next guy, people willing to get a good education, work hard are rewarded in this country...not everyone is willing to do those things, take here in NB a large portion of the population is on welfare or Poggy, they either don't want to work, or find a job that works 4 seasons becasue of personal preference...I call it it being to lazy to get a job, why work when they can sit at home do nothing and have the government pay their way....and it is generational, our government created that problem... .... there is going to be times where people are going to need a helping hand...but to take advantage of government assistance for decades is not right ....what needs to happen is cut them off, give them a year to sort out their problems then cut them off force them to school or work... Our entire democracy works that way, no where in the constitution does it say there is a free ride for those that don't want to put in the work....there are opportunities out there for anyone that is looking ..can't do that from the couch or waiting for your government check... 1 Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful.

Just sayin'. It isn't all gloom and doom, unless your glasses are tinted that way. You really have to tint them rose to think it's not mostly gloom and doom. We're the lowest in productivity . We've fallen from about number 5 to about number 30 in gdp per capita which determines quality of life. We're experiencing serious stagflation, our debt to gdp ratio is terrible and growing worse rapidly, we're likey to add about 100 billion dollars in debt this year (hard to say with no budget but based on campaign promises and the campaign budget errors we know about it's going to be higher than 80), youth unemployment is at a multi decade high, and our homes per capita is at the very bottom of the pile and there's no way to fix that in the near future, and Carney's only plan to do so is massive gov't investment into modular home building.... which his company just happens to have a major stake in. It is NOT rosy right now. And there is really only one party that holds the blame for that. (yes the ndp propped them up but they were still the ones in charge). 1 Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data
blackbird Posted Tuesday at 11:33 PM Author Report Posted Tuesday at 11:33 PM (edited) Just learned the BC NDP government is giving some FN bands the right to close certain provincial parks to non-natives for certain periods of time. These are just areas some FNs band claims as their "traditional territory" and is not proven to be their land. The BC NDP is also agreeing that non-natives are just settlers or colonizers and don't have rights to land if some FN band claims it is on their traditional territory and wants to use if for their sole purpose such as cultural activities. This is just the beginning. We can expect things to get a lot worse in BC for non-natives. The BC NDP dictators have no respect for the 95% of the population who are non-natives.
