Army Guy Posted May 15 Report Posted May 15 15 hours ago, LinkSoul60 said: We've been through your 'point' countless times. You continually blame everything on the liberals, and think we should give Trump what he wants. And I could resist when I saw your defence spend comment... 🤷♂️ I asked you... you have trouble getting your head around why our economy is struggling that you blame on liberal inaction. What is it about the US tariffs to auto, steel, aluminum and lumber and how they're affecting those industries that you don't understand? Sign a deal....why. Trump's got his own problems with these tariffs and more inflation coming his way. Agree to something when it's win/win, not win/lose You're still talking about Trudeau. He's gone, get over it. It doesn't appear to me that this government is putting the climate ahead of the economy. Are they? I see some ambitious plans right now that have a long way to come to fruition but oil and gas are part of that. Don't worry, you'll get the satisfaction of us contributing to all the good fossil fuels do for our climate. So, in your mind we've been 'freeloaders'. I'll disagree with that, but so what? Say we're sorry and move on rather than yours, and I'd almost bet Poilievres, of agreeing to a deal for the sake of politics rather than long term benefits for the country. I think me blaming the liberals for everything has something to do with they are the party in charge for the last 11 years....They and their p[policies are responsible for our current status.....Who else are Canadians going to hold accountable....Sure blame trump and PP....it is what liberals are good at...pointing fingers at some one else... No, i very clear on why OUR economy is struggling, it has liberal stamp all over it....Liberals don't get to use that excuse that a small portion of our economy is struggling because of tariffs "what is it they say 85 % of our economy is tariff free....if that was true why not make a deal and end those tariffs....that is not the liberal plan...The plan is to wait trump out....Liberals don't care about the tariffs or job losses or the economy i mean what was the deficit this year 75 bil over, with larger debt loads next year....stop pretending .......or we would be at the table trying to sort that out....Don't pretend that liberals care about any tariffs or trade deal.... Don't think the liberals get a pass about hearing about the worst PM in our history, it was after all THEM that voted for him 3 times in a row....You will never stop hearing about how he screwed CANADA...Climate change is front and center of most of their policies...take industrial carbon tax deal coming out today........if it was not why not reverse all justins climate change BS...and let Alberta be the engine of this country once again...All we have seen since his election is lots of promises....very little action...Canadians will jump on board climate change when something can replace fossil fuels, until then it is a no go... No not just in my mind, most peoples minds, most of our allied minds most of our defense agreement partners minds, most of the world minds....It is embarrassing to have to explain to foreign people why you're nation is not a reliable allied.. And to make maters worse Most Canadians are proud of that...You can almost bet on anything, what your saying now is just chirping about PP, Most Canadians don't know what he would do....But it could not be any worse than what the liberals have done in the last 11 years... 3 1 Quote We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have now done so much for so long with so little, we are now capable of doing anything with nothing.
I am Groot Posted May 17 Report Posted May 17 "A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidate promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; from selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage." - Alexander Fraser Tytler Quote "A civilization is not destroyed by wicked men; it is destroyed by weak men who cannot defend what is good.” — G.

I disagree. We Canadians, like the Chinese, we get along. Half the population of this country are Muslims from the Middle East, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, Indians who are Hindus and Sikhs, Sri Lankans who are Buddhists, Filipinos, Eritreans, Ethiopians, Mongolians, Nigerians, Algerians, Kenyans, Somalis, Cubans, Haitians, Jamaicans, etc. None of the people in these countries got along with each ot her, let alone anyone else. Setting foot on the magic dirt of Canada and being handed a passport is not going to change that.

Nationalist Posted May 18 Report Posted May 18 In general, Canadians are saps. Twits. Fools. We've made a big deal out of being "nice", that we've "niced" ourselves into a nice hole. Look around you, on this Victoria Day. A day, I would add, in celebration of a monarchy. In fact...we have a King now. Enjoy that Libbies... I look around and see my postage stamp of a back yard and a semi-detached home...worth over $1,000,000.00 still today. How is such a thing possible, you ask? By allowing immigration on steroids...that's how. Ya...I've benefited financially from this abuse of the nation. But we've priced our own children out of their own homes. Instead we have a collapsing condo market, stagnate wages due to our wonderful "new comers", crime everywhere, a province that wants to exit the county, and Dog Chow for a fcking mayor. But Hell...at least we got bike lanes...clogging up the traffic even more... STUPIDO! Quote Its so lonely in m'saddle since m'horse died.
