    The holocaust comparisons have me legit sick to my stomach. There is not one thing in Canada going on right now that compares to the start of the holocaust. No red flags. Not a one. They built the f

    It was required to clear the protesters... If that's done, the emergency is over and they don't need it anymore.  I actually think it's really good that their revoking it so quickly.  Takes away

    As a residential school survivor I will share my opinion. There really is no way of making reparations for this sad chapter. It must be acknowledged, remembered, but MOST importantly the effects it ha

I would say that under Chretien & Martin, yes. Under Trudeau, I'd disagree. Big business & big money wouldn't have killed our O & G industry & have us mired in the TMX fiasco. Or brought in a carbon tax.  Like Trudeau has done.

If the carbon tax was lefty, they would have repurposed the funds into some other scheme, like fish oil energy or something loopy. They're funnelling everything back to the people. It's a shell game. 

O&G is a regional thing, sorry to say. It doesn't matter too much to the big corps. O&G companies are still making their coin, it's just the workers that are suffering. 

They've made the offshore tax schemes miraculously disappear. That helps the rich and big business. 

They've pumped big bucks into infrastructure, which makes the big construction companies big coin. 

They've kept a lot of rich, very rich. Markets are booming.

Socialists tax & spend.  Taxes continue to go up. Everything is more expensive. Social program spending is up with no concern about ongoing debts & deficits.  No idea when the budget balances.  Political wedges across this country & Trudeau plays one region against the other. I think this country is in a lot of trouble & it's just going to get worse.

    I can’t see why liberals would support him after this. It should run counter to everything they believe.  I understand not voting for the Cons (as a long time con voter I don’t even want to vote for them). 

    Honestly politics aside Jagmeet might be the only decent leader among them. 

    I can't see why the Liberals would support him after... 

    SNC Lav 

    Philpott

    JWR

    Etc

    And, yet, here we are. 

    Have to agree about Singh. Seems genuine.

    Conservatives played one region against another. And ran up deficits. They cut taxes to drive up the deficit. 

    Liberals and Conservatives run the same playbook. They just tag each other in every so often.

    Doesn't matter the MSM will ignore it or defend it or likely just write another set of articles about Faith Goldy.

    Faith Goldy is garbage and the people that call her friend are too. 

    This is all over MSM. It's everywhere. Canada, US, everywhere. It's not going away and no one is downplaying it.

    I don't like Goldy and perhaps it was a poor example but the media tends to ignore failings if its a Liberal. CBC story on this, 2 white people condeming JT and 4-5 people of colour offering forgiveness. No slant there at all right? Meanwhile if you're a Conservative they treat you harsher. This, SNC Lavelin, taking a trip to the Aga Khan's island would have all by themselves gotten a Conservative politician like Sheer ousted.

    Well for me, I've seen enough of Trudeau to last me a lifetime. His father at least had a brain in his head. I didn't like his father but I at least had some respect for him. I can't say that about his son.

    Good lord what an ass- total racist ****- you can't do that. 

    Now- is Trudeau a racist? Black/Brown face 20+ years ago: Check. Advancing racist bills and/or agendas: nope. Promoting racists into positions of power: nope. Courting the racists: not that I can see. 

    Anything else anyone wants to throw in there that I missed? I would like a clearer picture.
