It’s actually quite entertaining to be honest. I would participate in the US Politics thread as well but most of the stuff in there seems to come from the Babylon Bee so I wouldn’t want to waste my time.

Sadly seems to apply to Canadians increasingly as well.

That worthless sack of shit is not a journalist and barely qualifies as human.


 

Not true Heff. This guy is totally legit, even went undercover and did his best to try to get kicked out of a swimming pool.

Cause, you know…trans & muslims.

Being conservative is being a victim now. 

And too busy to actually do anything to actually help people right now.  Like hey PP you genius,  you know you could do something instead of just playing to the camera. 

 

A US Con gave the game away when he was asked why he wouldn't vote for increased funding for border guards and such.  He said he didn't want to give Biden a win.  So instead of actually getting something that could help, he'd rather just cry to the camera and do nothing.

It's embarrassing how pathetic it's become. 

 

Yes, that soy thug Justin made an innocent "reporter" do something weird.

Ugh.. you are exhausting.. Alright well the "worthless sack of shit barely human" still doesn't qualify to be arrested?



With what we know so far I would say most likely not but ‘cop misusing his authority’ and being investigated for it is hardly a story. YouTube has countless channels dedicated to the topic so you can watch it all day long if you like. The only thing making this a story in this forum is the crap trying to tie it somehow to Blackface Trudeau.

 

The incident is under review as it should be.  Rebel Media’s description of Menzies being  “brutally arrested” is crap though so don’t expect much more than a mild reprimand or a few days suspension with pay.

2025 needs to get here ASAP before that worthless sack of human filth does anymore irreversible damage to the country.  He can not conduct himself properly and no civilized country should have someone like him in charge.

 

His ex-wife knows it.  Imagine being the Prime Minster of Canada and still getting dumped

The turd is the most corrupt pm this country has ever suffered through. 

 

It is shocking some here actually think he is doing his job. 

 

Look at any metric and you will see the turd is destroying this country. Censorship, authoritarianism, highest murder rates in decades, making up laws, costs our of control.

 

Yeah..you turd supporters keep on going though. Jeezus. 

 

Those that don't see this must hide their heads in the sand. 

 

Other countries see how pathetic our 'leader' is but when our own citizens can't see it, that is scary. US thinks we are a joke. India, China, Russia, EU. They all think the turd is pathetic. But not some of our citizens...jeezus.

I can't be bothered to contradict the defending on this thread for the arrest of a reporter. You don't have to approve of Rebel News or like any of their reporters to know that cuffing a reporter as he asks questions of a minister are a threat to free press. This is 3rd world stuff. If the reporter was out of line, which he was not, then step him to the side and let the minister move on. The minister was under no physical threat. Pretty clearly intimidation of a free press.

Maybe talk to some folks and see if that’s true.  
People are losing their homes due to insane interest rates.  
Other folks are even farther away from ever buying a home. 
Price of food, gas, etc are insane.  
It’s as unaffordable to be here as it ever has been. 
 

But sure, if you want to close your eyes and hold JTs hand and pretend everyone is ok…. Please do

Yes, that reporter is a goof.   Always has been, always will be.  
And yes, that cop was way out of line. 
It’s terrifying to know there are people like that out there with guns and authority that can change the path of your life, just by being an ignorant cunt.  
 

BUT 

No surprise and nothing new.  
Some reporters are idiots. 
Some cops are shitty pigs. 
No news here

So now the so called insane interest rates are somehow JTs fault. When I bought my first house in 1979 the rate was 12%. I never paid under 8% until after 2008.

Anyone that thought 2% rates were a permanent thing were kidding themselves.

 

There was some very bad advice out there from mortgage brokers tho who convinced a lot of people to not lock in a historically low rate.

Do you have any info/link on that?

 

I know it was the fear but I heard that it is not happening...

People are doing everything to hold on to their homes. They call it a lock in effect as the market shows signs of stalling.

Aging demographic, pandemic, climate change, war in Ukraine, global supply chain issues, corporate profiteering, Israel... Are all largely responsible for the bulk of our current inflation. 

 

How many of those are the fault of Trudeau/the Liberals?

 

About the only big cost of living thing you can pin on the Liberals is not replacing CMHC funding for public housing cancelled 3 decades ago.  Something the Cons also failed at when they were in power during that period. With that 3 decades of public housing, we're likely in a better place (though probably still not "cheap") for housing costs. 

 

And as Jimmy pointed out, the interest rates aren't even "insane" by historical standards. The problem is the size of the mortgages required. Then even a small increase in interest causes a huge spike in costs. Again, a problem BOTH parties have done nothing about for 3 decades.
