What The Liberals Did To Canada

No you're not.  You're defending liberal corruption by claiming it's harper's fault, same as always. 

If you really cared you'd spend as much time condemning the liberal corruption but you're somehow always magically just fine with that  

Harper DID do something about it and justin DID run afoul of his changes (snc for example, aga khan for another) but  you and your kind fought long and hard to keep the libs in power even after they broke so many of the ethics rules. 

Harper's legislation did quite a bit but the one thing it couldn't do is prevent dieHard lefties like yourself from guaranteeing that the liberals were never held to account

Every time I see this argument from him, I think back to the not-so-olden days rape trials where the woman was grilled about "Well, WHAT WERE YOU WEARING?"

Conservatives just introduced 3 MAJOR initiatives for new parents in Canada:

• Parents could return to work WITHOUT losing parental benefits and use the remaining time later.
• Parents could go back to school while receiving parental leave.
• Parents could earn income caring for children, seniors or sick family members WHILE still receiving benefits.

This is the type of policy Canadians have been begging for.

Flexible. Practical. Pro-family. Pro-worker.

OR:

We can put ANOTHER $13 billion on the country's credit card and give it away to unaccountable bureaucracies for climate initiatives.

And even more good news:

 

On literally every front we fall further and further behind

Canada's economy dropped 18,000 jobs in April as unemployment rose to 6-month high | CBC News

So we lost a tonne of jobs in January, a CRAP tonne of jobs in February, gained a small amount back in march and just lost ALL of those and then some. 

And they're predicting things will get worse.

This is just Justin Trudeau 2.0. Things are no better under carney than they were under Justin

Jim Jordan's House Judiciary Committee — the same one that exposed & helped dismantle Mark Carney's GFANZ climate cartel for antitrust collusion... is now zeroing in on Carney's Bill C-22.

This isn't just a Canadian privacy nightmare. It's a direct threat to American trade, tech, and security

Why? Because Carney's 'Lawful Access Act' would force companies (including US Big Tech operating in Canada - including X) to build backdoors, retain massive user metadata, and hand it over more easily to government.

Undermines encryption. Chills investment. Creates divergent standards that fragment the internet and raise compliance costs for American firms.

Canadians know America doesn't need its closest trading partner turning into a surveillance state that scares off innovation and forces US companies into impossible compliance choices. Free societies don't mandate spyware on apps and devices. Leave that to China.

Jordan is right to treat this as a trade & competition issue. Canada: Kill C-22. Protect privacy, property rights, and cross-border commerce.

Youth unemployment is at almost 15%.

But the Libs are bringing in 215,000 TFWs and foreign students, who are eligible to work, this year.

This is not a "new" government.  It's the same old one.

Which is exactly why carney isn't moving quickly. He knows if he waits a bit then the market conditions won't be right and then he can throw the doors open and nobody will come anyway. He doesn't want anything built he just wants people to think he wanted something built

At the least the UK still has some f'n balls! Carney's boy Starmer is done after today's slaughter.

I'm not a fan of Farage. He's a total fraud, but men & married women are sending a real message to Labour & the Tories. Looks real good on those treasonous bastards!

You think Pierre is divisive? Lol, please. He won't even touch deportations. Gtfoh!

Canada needs a Rupert Lowe. His candidates swept today.

Our economy is still in the tank.

INSANE.

Just days after AFU Major Yuriy Kasyanov exposed Zelenskyy and his business partners for pocketing $4.5 MILLION A DAY from the Fire Points drone racket—Zelenskyy announces a massive new drone deal with the Carney Government.

Good thing we have Freeland over there to make sure everything is kosher. 🙄

What's this, like the 4th money corruption in Ukraine we've found out about?  And here we are, still shoveling all our tax dollars there by the billions.  Over $25 billion to be exact.

Consumer insolvencies highest since 2009 as Canadians struggle with debt - National | Globalnews.ca

Canadians are reeling from debt, data shows, as consumer insolvencies have reached their highest level since the start of 2009.

Consumer insolvencies — a measure that indicates how many Canadians filed for relief under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act — reached record highs in the first three months of 2026, according to data from the Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy.

In January, February and March, 37,121 Canadians filed for insolvencies — amounting to 17 Canadians filing for insolvencies every hour this year, according to the Canadian Association of Insolvency and Restructuring Professionals (CAIRP).

This is the highest volume of Canadians filing for insolvencies since the first quarter of 2009, CAIRP said, when the Canadian economy was reeling from the aftershocks of the Great Recession of 2008.

This “Canada is basically Europe” line is diplomatic fluff with a passport.

Canada is not Europe. We are North American by geography, trade, energy, defence, culture, transport, and daily reality. Our biggest trading relationship is still with the United States, not Brussels.

Europe matters, and CETA matters, but pretending Canada is some honorary EU outpost is elite fantasy politics.

Canada’s own government says CETA frames our EU economic relationship, while Canada remains a separate strategic partner, not a European appendage. Travel through Europe for five minutes and you notice the difference immediately: density, history, borders, bureaucracy, political culture, energy dependence, military assumptions, everything.

Canada is a North American country with Western institutions, Commonwealth roots, and its own interests.

Trade with Europe? Yep. Co-operate where useful? Sure.

But stop trying to culturally rebrand Canada into “Europe with snow.” We need leaders who understand Canada as Canada, not as a branch office for Brussels.

In America, a mayor gets charged for acting as a Chinese spy for the CCP.

In Canada, we get twelve panels, three experts, and a CBC segment about “Racism & Xenophobia" and the RCMP doing ongoing investigations until everyone forgets!

This is Canada's "spaceport", which just received $200 million of your tax dollars.  In addition to the millions they've received in the past.  

 

It's owned by the government of Canada, who leases it to Maritime Launch for $13,500 per year.......

WHO LEASES IT BACK TO THE GOVERNMENT FOR $20 MILLION PER YEAR.  AND YOU PAY FOR IT.

This is what happens when you don't hold a government accountable for corruption.  It emboldens them further.

From the thread:

UN agencies systematically facilitated mass migration into America and Europe, even as citizens of these nations called for restrictions on migration. Now the Global Compact’s latest report urges nations to expand migration pathways and pursue “regularization” of migrants.

 

 

UN agencies – working with the NGOs they fund – established a migration corridor through Central America and to the U.S. border. As the American people suffered under an unprecedented wave of mass migration, the UN was on the ground pipelining migrants to our southern border.

 

UN officials greeted migrants along the route through the deadly Darien Gap. UN-funded NGOs handed out maps to migrants in route to the U.S. After facilitating mass migration to the United States, UN agencies condemned the deportation of illegal immigrants.

 

As Europe endured sustained migratory pressure, UN officials staffed all ends of the Mediterranean migration route – from the coast of Libya to the shores of the Aegean to the islands of Greece. Then UN agencies condemned frontline states who refused to open their borders.

 

 

While the United Kingdom faced unprecedented illegal boat crossings, UN agencies condemned plans for deportations. UN officials lobbied aviation regulators to prevent the deportation of migrants – an appalling violation of the UK’s national sovereignty.

 

The Global Compact on Migration claims to support “safe” migration. For the citizens of Western nations, mass migration was never safe. It introduced new security threats, imposed financial strains, and undermined the cohesion of our societies.

 

The United States will not legitimize global compacts that enable mass migration into America or Western nations. Under President Trump, the State Department will facilitate remigration – not replacement migration.

 

Meanwhile in Canada:

We got the lady who bullied every country into taking in massive amounts of migrants, with no thought to the effects.

The thing is carney season self as a European. He prefers Europe to Canada and has spent most of his last years there substantially. As soon as he got appointed to be PM after the leadership race the first thing he did was to fly there and start schmoozing. He has spent more time out of Canada than he has spent in Canada.

It's of no surprise that he is looking at trying to bring us closer to Europe. The problem is once you understand how the European Union works it would be disastrous for us to be a full member. They have a habit of creating regulation that just happens to fit their exact current protected businesses and makes it impossible for others to participate

For example I believe they have something like a thousand regulations on the manufacturing of pillows. Their pillow companies already matched all of these things in the laws came out and it didn't affect them but it makes it very hard for other pillow manufacturers. 

So if we sign up, we still can't trade properly with them unless we spend a lot of money 'conforming' 

This was one of the sticking points for the european free trade agreement and harper had almost solved the problem when he left office, freeland stepped in and screwed it up (actually left one meeting crying ffs) and that's why trade did not really get the bounce we hoped after it was signed

Frédéric Bastiat’s essay “That Which Is Seen and That Which Is Not Seen” (1850) contains one of the clearest and most powerful insights in economics.

 

Bastiat observed that people - including policymakers - focus almost exclusively on immediate, visible results (the “seen”) while ignoring the hidden, long-term consequences (the “unseen”).

 

Take his famous broken-window parable: a shopkeeper’s window is smashed; the glazier is hired, earns money, and as he spends it elsewhere, onlookers declare the economy stimulated. What is seen is the new job and spending, but what is unseen is what the shopkeeper could have done with that same money - buying a new suit, repairing his roof or investing in his business. Society ends up with one window instead of a window plus a suit.

 

Destruction does not create net wealth; it merely redirects it and conceals the loss. Bastiat applied the same logic to government spending, public works, subsidies, and even war. Every franc taken in taxes or borrowed is a franc that cannot be used by individuals for their own purposes. The jobs “created” by the state are visible; the jobs, innovations, and goods never produced because resources were diverted are invisible.

 

This single insight exposes why so many well-intentioned policies fail. Real prosperity grows from the unseen choices of free individuals, not from the visible hand of the state.

"Six ministers were quoted in the press release. Consultations will be launched.

The strategy does not explain how Canada went from electricity surplus to electricity scarcity under a decade of Liberal government.

It does not explain why the institutions it proposes to use — the Canada Infrastructure Bank, the Canada Growth Fund, the Major Projects Office — have either failed to deploy capital or do not yet exist in functional form.

And it does not mention that the Prime Minister who wrote it retains carried interest in a Brookfield fund whose anchor asset is a nuclear technology company that stands to benefit from every pillar of the plan."
