No, provincial governments don't hold the authority on foreign investment, the Federal government does and that was your long gone idol.

For investment didn't have anything to do with it and as a matter of fact provincial governments absolutely do have the authority to block foreign investors and in fact British Columbia did that for a time. So you are 100% wrong, the provinces absolutely can both tax and shut down for an investment if they wish

But our problem wasn't for an investment. For a. Of time our problem was money laundering which added at least 5 to 10% to the value of our market every year and then it was the other problems that have affected everywhere. Too much immigration, not enough building, too much municipal rape and pillage of Developers, downward pressure on the economy and upward pressure on other inflationary forces

None of this is terribly complicated but there's no doubt with the Gregory Robertson played a role

Wrong.

Everyone in BC and Vancouver knew he fuqued it up by allowing the Chinese to buy up properties.

Look it up, dum-dum.

Your Liberals fuque up everything they touch - the reverse Midas touch.  The fact that you're still supporting this bunch of incompetent clowns after the shitshow of the last decade, only demonstrates that your commitment to stupidity is truly impressive.

Lol... Poilievre... give me break.  He's done f'all except for say 'look at what the liberals did',

He's not in power. Why would you think he would be able to do anything if he's not in power

This job is literally to say what the liberals have done wrong. That's what opposition does

"STOOOPID PP KEEPS DOING HIS OWN JOB INSTEAD OF THE LIBERALS JOB!! WHAT A JERK! DERP!"

Yeash guy.  

At least he forced the liberals to give a break on gas tax right now

He has to lie about it.  Otherwise he'd have to admit he votes for total incompetents.

He blames Trump, he blames Harper, he blames Poilievre, he blames the rest of the world.  Nothing is ever the Liberal's fault.  They've been in power for 11 years, Canada is a mess and it has absolutely nothing to do with them. 🙄

Well he does so he should probably get used to it and make peace with it somehow but I would argue that pointing out a failure of policy doesn't automatically mean that your party is useless. You can admit to a failure and look at how they could do things differently without somehow having your entire belief in the party collapse if your belief is healthy to begin with

I have heard you criticize conservative positions, I myself have criticized many and even said what I think poilievre has done right and wrong, Not to mention what harper did write him wrong, and I don't feel that that undermines my support for both harper and the CPC and Poilievre

So I'm not sure why his brain collapses at the mere thought of finding any fault whatsoever when it's so obvious that it exists

This is what I see, too.

Conservatives seem to be able to hold their party to account.  Liberal pom-pom wavers do not.

The Liberal party knows this about their base.  Loyal to the point of insanity.  They know it doesn't matter how bad they do, their base will not stop voting for them.  They count on it, because they can do the minimal, toss out a few crumbs here & there and their id10t base cheers.

This is the record of the Liberals under Carney's advisement.

How much longer can Canada survive a Liberal government?

It looks like Carney's peers - global reserve bankers - are not even confident in him.  They're betting on the US, not on Canada.

They're dumping Canadian currencies at record speeds.  In the last year, they've dumped over $50 billion in Canadian currency, $34 billion of that in just the last quarter.

Where did the money go?  A lot of it went to the US.  

The reserve bankers are voting Carney out and betting on Trump.

Do they know something you don't?

Posthaste: Canadian dollar is being dumped from FX reserves at a record pace. What's going on?

Where is Carney's money?  In the US.

He's doing what's called in investment circles "talking the book" which means "I'm selling Canada!"  (But that's not where MY money is, I'm just selling you this other thing.)

What you want to ask is:  What's in YOUR book?  Show me where YOUR money is.

Carney's money is in the US.  And it looks like that's where all the other bankers are going, too.

Goes into a hissy-fit, meltdown rage every time.  Has absolutely no rebuttal to any of the information.

This is so typical of Carney.

Gives with one hand, takes away with the other.

After bragging about giving our military a pay bump, he does this:

Canadian military personnel face cuts in overseas allowances | Ottawa Citizen

Cuts the allowance for military stationed overseas by $1000/month.

Soldiers were given one week prior notice and told to "plan their finances accordingly."

At the same time they do this:

It's funny because I was talking to some of my military friends in Edmonton and said, Hey Carney is investing in our military, finally.  And they all said, No...he is making cuts.

Canadian judges giving lower sentences to immigrants, even for violent crimes, so they can stay in the country and it doesn't affect their immigration status, because that's what Liberal Bill C-75 instructs them to do - Conservatives have been talking about this issue for almost a year.

Conservatives say the justice system favours non-citizens. Experts disagree | CBC News

"Experts" disagree, says CBC.

Who are these "experts"?  Hand-picked for the article to deceive Canadians?

I specifically heard Immigration Minister Diab in committee say this was definitely NOT happening.  Remple-Garner insisted it was and Diab said she had not heard of one case.  Remple-Garner, shocked - the cases are all over the news!  I can send you dozens of newspaper articles.

Now, finally, judges are starting to speak out.  2 of them.  Maybe others will speak up now.

Ontario Judge, Antonio Skarica:

Judge decries Canada for prioritizing foreign criminals over victims | National Post

Quebec Judge, Antoine Piche:

Sentences for non-citizens: Judge says Montreal prosecutors of suggest more lenient sentences

 

I am.  So sick.  Of this Liberal party.  Denying, denying, denying.   Lying, lying, lying.

And I'm.  So sick.  Of Canadian media.  Painting Conservatives as the id10ts.  And using their public voice to run cover for lying Liberals.

Conservatives tabled a motion to end this practice. 

THE LIBERAL PARTY VOTED AGAINST IT.

I think he's trying to eliminate opposition parties, too.  He's been preparing his base to accept that an opposition party is unnecessary and in fact, morally wrong and downright EVIL, since they oppose the Liberals.

Eliminate with polonium or double taps to the head?

Why not just use good old fashioned right-wing methods like Pinochet's? You round up the obvious ones into torture arenas, use blow torches and pliers to create lists of other lefties and rinse and repeat until you get them all.

You need an ideological restructuring of Canadian society. But a simple x on a ballot won't do it. It literally needs to be street by street, house by house and even family by family at times.

It was quite affordable. Sorry but i posted the facts that prove that. People could buy a nice place to live in one of the major parts of greater vancouver for a modest price and keep within 33 percent of their income and raise kids.  They could do that.  Today they can't. 

ROFLMAO!!!!!!! Sure kid, this board is FULL of posts about me going on about how great inflation is :)  LOLOLOL

You get so weird when you think you've 'lost'.  Honestly. 

The seeds for future problems existed in harper's day and harper himself was concerned about it. But they had not yet come to flower.  Justin ran on a platform of making sure they were taken back under control and housing remained affordable in 2015.  look how that turned out. 

As usual, you're wrong...but the good thing is you'll convince yourself otherwise.  Tell me this was, or is affordable 11 years later;

The MLS® Home Price Index composite benchmark price for all residential properties in Metro Vancouver ends the year at $760,900. This represents an 18.9 per cent increase compared to December 2014.

The benchmark price for detached properties increased 24.3 per cent from December 2014 to $1,248,600.

The benchmark price of an apartment property increased 14 per cent from December 2014 to $436,200.

The benchmark price of an attached unit increased 13.6 per cent from December 2014 to $543,700.

You cry about a lot of things but one you continually chirp about is Trump and everyone 'pooping their pants'....but never answer the question....  Why shouldn't anyone blame Trump when he is solely responsible for the tariffs that have shît kicked our auto, steel & aluminum, and forestry sectors with lost revenue and jobs?  

And no if you paid attention you know I didn't support Trudeau who is a reason of why we're here today, but he's also not the only reason.  And I didn't blame Harper at all... I stated a fact about real estate. Poilievre, be serious...  there is nothing to blame.  And yeah, the world is to blame here because it changed in 2020 that has effects to this day.

The facts are clear. IN 2015 people could afford to buy a home and live in it on modest incomes. Today they can't.

Not relevant.  ALL homes includes luxury homes and large estates that aren't a factor in 'affordability'. You don't need a 10 bedroom house on an acre to live "affordably".  So, what would a 3 br home have cost?

"In 2015, the benchmark price for a townhome in Metro Vancouver (specifically in the Fraser Valley board area) was approximately $302,600 in June 2015."

So. 302k  Not 760 k.  

That's the kind of cheezy lie you libs love isn't it :)   A person in 2015 could get a good quality townhome with three bedrooms, small yard, decent amount of greenspace and frequently a play area for kids for somewhere around 300, 400 k depending on how nice and what part of town. 

The average household income was 65 k.  So for a place that was worth 350k which is definitely towards the nicer end, you'd have a downpayment of about 17500.  that wouldn't have been hard to save up.

mortgage of about 1650. That's 30 percent of income, that's the literal definition of affordable. 

Plus food was cheaper as a percent of income and so were a lot of other things. 

SO, when we remove your lies we see that for a young couple starting out it was QUITE affordable to buy a home large enough to raise an above average sized family (the birth rate was already well below 2 kids per female).

Average cost of a three-bedroom townhome Metro Vancouver 2015 - Google Search

ANd that was the end of harpers term, all through his term things were even MORE affordable 

 

Sowwy kid, you just got your ass handed to you.  But i love that you think if someone can't afford mansions in the british props life isn't "affordable'  LOL nice try :)

I posted the data and went through it with you step by step.

This isn't theoretical. In 2015 a young family could own a home comfortably well below the 33% of income level that is considered acceptable and also food and expenses were considerably cheaper as a percentage of their income

Those are simple facts. Now you're making vague and unsupported statements because you know you have failed

If you have to lie to make your point you don't have a good point.

So is al so as always my question is why do you feel the need to lie like this? Life was quite affordable in 2015. Honestly wasn't that bad in 2016 and even 2017 was still borderline.

Then it kept getting worse and by today it's pretty unaffordable to live in Canada Unless you are well above the average in

You can't argue this, I walked you through the calculations. This is cut and dry and now you're crying and pooping yourself instead of dealing with it like a man.

You're right, I won't argue this...   A grade 7 dropout walking me through calculations gives me little incentive to argue with an id1ot.

The fact is that housing was also unaffordable in Metro Vancouver when your hero was PM in 2015.

Go find another subject to show your lack of understanding 🤡

 

Greater Vancouver home prices surged in 2015, with the MLS® Home Price Index composite benchmark reaching $760,900 by year-end, an 18.9% increase over 2014.
