LOL thanks, i was trying to explain it at a level you could understand so 6 year old is what i was shooting for 5 hours ago, Barquentine said: Wealthy people with multiple properties leverage their equity to borrow and reinvest to make more money. Duh! You just get stupider every time we talk. So... old lady i know is on a fixed retirement income. She's now a ' millionare' because the property she bought in 73 for 60 thousand has gone up and is worth about 2.5 million today. So... she's rich right? According to you she just has to borrow on her equity and she'll have all kinds of money!!! WHOOOO But nope. First off if she couldn't defer her property taxes she couldn't even afford to live in her home. And that actually wiped out a LOT of elderly people in vancouver before the deferral program kicked in, people who'd lived in their homes for decades and paid off their mortgages suddenly couldn't afford the property taxes as the value of their properties shot up. Now. If she were to borrow money on that property to buy another property she would now still have to have a mortgage on both properties. If you do the math, she would not be albe to rent out the second property in MOST cases for enough to cover the mortgages these days, she'd fall a little short. SO where's that money come from to pay that? In time, over say the next 10 years, that property will PROBABLY go up in value and the mortgage will come down and rents will likely go up but there's no way she can afford to get to that point. you must be like 18 years old not to understand this shit. You are comfortably one of the stupidest people on this forum and that's going up against people like Robo Smith and Exflyer. The vast majority of people cannot touch the equity in their home. And I do mean the vast majority not just a majority. The only way they can is through things like reverse mortgages which gives up a huge hunk of that equity but they then can't pass on to their family and all of a sudden they're not millionaires anymore You really shouldn't talk about things you don't understand and you very clearly have no understanding of this. You are legitimately dumber than a rock Quote "That which doesn't kill me... Had better start running."

Goddess Posted February 25 Report Posted February 25 (edited) I keep telling you that you will never get the whole truth from Canada's legacy media, you get Liberal Party spin. You have to start looking at independent journalists and investigative journalists, or else you're just being subjected to gov't propaganda. The Food Professor just posted this on "X". To my X followers, I’ve worked with the media for nearly 25 years. For most of that time, the relationship was professional and balanced. But in recent years, something has shifted. I am increasingly concerned about the state of our democracy — particularly how media, in general, are informing Canadians about food policy, food inflation, and economic policy. I now find myself learning more about Canada’s economy and policy changes from American outlets than from Canadian ones. Much of our national coverage feels reactive, shallow, or overly fixated on partisan narratives rather than substantive policy analysis. What troubles me most is the lack of scrutiny applied evenly across governments and institutions. For example, when the Bank of Canada suggested that Ottawa’s counter-tariffs contributed to food inflation, only one major outlet — Bloomberg — gave it meaningful coverage. The grocery benefit program received very little examination regarding how it would be financed. It took days before anyone pressed for clarity. During the latest spike in food inflation, several outlets turned to the same small circle of commentators who dismissed any potential role of federal policy — carbon pricing, GST holidays, counter-tariffs — despite mounting evidence that policy decisions can and do affect food prices. Instead of investigating structural drivers of inflation, much of the coverage focuses on fact-checking opposition rhetoric, even though the opposition has not governed since 2015. Scrutiny should be applied equally — not selectively. Quebec media, while imperfect, appear to have maintained a broader range of debate. In much of the rest of Canada, I see increasing concentration of voices — often from the same region, Ontario, often reflecting similar policy perspectives — and less diversity of thought grounded in empirical research. This isn’t about partisan politics. It’s about accountability, transparency, and healthy democratic discourse. Media are under financial pressure — that’s real. But public trust depends on independence and depth. Subsidy structures, incentives, and newsroom economics all matter. Canada deserves stronger policy journalism — especially on food affordability, supply chains, and economic resilience. We need more data-driven analysis, more intellectual diversity, and more courage to ask uncomfortable questions — regardless of which party is in power. Until that happens, Canadians would be wise to diversify their news sources and think critically about what they’re being told — and what they’re not.

Goddess Posted February 25 Report Posted February 25 Canada is the source of 80% of the known watchlist terrorists apprehended by the US. More than 1000 known terrorists from Canadian residency/citizenship/origin in the last 3 years. Liberals have lost track of over 600 known IRGC terrorists from Iran. Continuing to destroy the most open border for mutual trade and security with this level of incompetence and Ottawa will shipwreck our economy. When an incompetent government puts virtue-signaling above the safety of Canadians and our southern neighbours, you know you have chosen the wrong government.

F*ck that. This is a complete bullshit narrative. I hate how the Liberals get congratulated for not f*cking up as much as Trump. Let's remember what they actually did, and you tell me which of these major policies they should be congratulated for. 1. Let the emergency stockpile of PVE gear deteriorate. Threw it out as it got old. Didn't replace it. 2. Told us there was nothing to worry about. Told us to all go on vacation. Sent our remaining PVE gear to China 3. Said it would be racist to close the border to China, or to subject those coming from there to health checks 4. Took no actions at all until Sophie Trudeau caught Covid. Closed the borders the next day - sort of. 5. Refused to quarantine those returning from China. 6. Decided to throw in our lot with China (who hated us) to help them develop a vaccine. 7. After many weeks, finally realized China wasn't going to give us any vaccine, threw billions at every pharmaceutical company in the world in hopes of butting in line. To this day, won't tell us how much. 8. When they finally agreed to quarantine people, did so in public hotels, charging more money than the fine so that people ignored them. And made the quarantine for three days for a disease that had a ten-day incubation period.

Trump is a handy excuse. That's why the Liberals are ragging the puck and not trying to get a deal. It's good for their popularity to have Trump mouthing off at us. All the problems that had the Liberals down in the polls before Trump arrived, are still in place. Trump didn't create our low productivity, our low and diminishing GDP per person, our industries decamping for China, our mess of homeless encampments and violence in the streets, our huge deficits, our staggering healthcare system.
