It was speculation dude...you need therapy man. This obsession you have with imagining everything is a lie is pathological. It's not healthy.

Oh, that's cool.

Because Canada sends $40 million to India every year.

I don't believe it was. I think it's the kind of thing you would say based on your ideology rather than actual intellectual speculation based on facts.

Looks like I was right too, really seem to have struck a nerve :P

The top 45 countries that Canada sent money to in 2024 while Canadians die on health-care waitlists and go to foodbanks:

 

Total international assistance (approx.): $10-11 B CAD (2023-2024 fiscal year)

These are just the top 45.  There are 151 more lines.

That's just aid. The climate stuff is even bigger.

We send money to Nigeria, which has massive oil income that mostly winds up in the pockets of its corrupt leaders.

How Canada came to lead the G7 in food inflation.

Yes, some of Canada’s food inflation reflects global factors — climate volatility, energy costs, and supply disruptions. But most of it is now policy-induced. Regulatory drag, interprovincial trade barriers, poor logistics, rising compliance costs, carbon pricing embedded throughout the supply chain, and a sluggish macroeconomic environment all compound one another since 2008, at the very least (see Figure below). These are not temporary shocks; they are structural weaknesses.

Okay but what about the upside?

Canada also enjoyed one of the greatest growth spurts in the distance between rich and poor in the planet in 2025. Economic inequality in Canada reached record-high levels, with several key metrics indicating a widening "chasm" between the wealthiest citizens and the rest of the population. 

While the elite saw gains, approximately one-quarter of Canadians (25%) lived in food-insecure households in 2025.

Why do people figure these gains should come without a cost, do they think they're free or something? Shouldn't Canadians actually be willing to pay more for this sort of empowering economic performance?

I can't wait untill the numbers for 2026 come in, we probably haven't seen anything yet!

Because a lot of rich people left. And they took their tax money with it and now we have less revenue per population than we did before

I love that you're so happy that so many people can't afford to feed their families anymore. Is that because some of them are Jewish?

Jody Wilson-Raybould announced she will be starting chemo for breast cancer shortly.

I'm very sad to hear this news.  She is one of the few politicians that I had utmost respect for.  She stood up to Trudeau's corruption and lost her job for it.

Canada, the lost decade of opportunity and growth. And despite that, we're continuing with the same policies under the same government.

Under Trudeau, who was being advised by Carney, the Liberals gave Telesat $2 billion to provide satellite services to  Canada, in spite of them not even having a satellite.

The CEO of Telesat is Carney's good friend.

Now this:

Looks like they are taking the money and running, too.  Just like all the other Liberal insiders.

The Liberal party spent over a quarter of a million dollars on consultants for how to answer questions at committee meetings.

"Strategic and practical advice on committee appearances"

$263,000.

And it doesn't come out of Liberal party coffers.  It's billed to taxpayers.

And if you watch any committee meetings, you'd see the consultants are actually teaching them how to NOT answer questions, be evasive and how to ramble out the time allotted.

I was thinking they were just stupid, but it turns out they are being trained to be stupid.

If they can't answer questions about their job, they should be fired.

Inter-provincial trade issues are the problems of the provinces...the feds eliminated  federal hurdles.

What are "rising compliance  costs"?

The biggest factor right now is the USD/CAD exchange rate (30+%) and what we have to pay for our imported foods. We import 68% of our food form the US. American farmers have been devastated by the migrant worker ban and restrictions. they have to pay more for picking their produce and therefore increased the prices...and they naturally pass that on.

"Carbon pricing in Canada, which includes the federal fuel charge and industrial emissions systems, has a relatively minor, though debated, impact on food prices, withstudies estimating an increase of less than one per cent to 0.8 per cent for domestically produced food"

Lastly, using 2008 prices to now is kind moot as we have had partial recession and a world wide epidemic amongst other things since then.

Under the Liberals, in just 10 years, we went from a country with a balanced budget and the richest middle class in the world....to a country that has to borrow from our children to subsidize groceries for over 1/4 of our population.

Carney promised to fix it anyway. He said he would work with them and negotiate and bring everybody together and show leadership and negotiate a solution

Just like he was going to negotiate a trade deal with trump by July. 

There were no federal trade barriers. The problem is always been credential and he said he can fix it get everyone talking had a big meeting and said that it went great and everybody was going to drop their trade barriers. And in fact they got worse. We now have more trade barriers than when carney signed on.

Carney light. And the vast majority of our inflation and food inflation costs are due to policy. Sorry for your bad luck

He did not say he would fix it anyway. All he could do and he did was eliminate any federal issues and regulations. Yes, there were federal barriers but now they are gone.

Yes, he said he will get them talking and they did. And he is working with them but....the provinces have a lot of their pwn issues, rules and regulations that only they can deal with.

So now it is wholly in the hands of the provinces.

Sorry for your stupidity about this situation.

How bad is Canada's refugee system? How bad is our judiciary? After being stuffed with Liberals for the last ten years, they're about as bad as they can be.

Which is how we get judges who see a crazy knife-wielding refugee who is physically impaired, and think to themselves. "My God, this is EXACTLY who we want to keep in Canada!" And then gives him a low sentence in hopes he won't be deported.

No he did not...he said federal restrictions would be lifted. He has no authority over the provinces...even a LOSER like you should know that LOL

Yes...they were even talking this  week while they are in Ottawa. They have had premiers meeting in the past too. Again...get informed LOL

https://www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/statements/2026/01/29/first-ministers-joint-statement

He never lied...he only said federal obstacles will be removed...that is all he can do. 

You are certainly misinformed and foolish..a trait of a LOSER LOL

Well, ya shoulda voted the conservatives in but....you did not have a leader that Canadians could back so, they voted for the ones Canadians decide would be best.

If PP get support at his review...he can be the only leader to have lost 3 straight elections. Canadians do not like him.

Surely there's more levers Ottawa could use though...withhold transfer payments or slap a tariff on them. Fùck, I don't know. What about the notwithstanding clause?

Mark my words it'll be like the DST all over again - the gold standard for getting nothing done and nowhere fast.

And let's not get started on certifying all the doctors and nurses driving Uber cars and flipping burgers that instead should be filling healthcare vacancies everywhere you go.

Could things be anymore FUBAR really?

Listen to the gathering of Canada's 'unbiased' national media talking to and about Liberal Prime Minister Mark Carney. This is what $600 mllion dollars buys you.
