RupertKBD Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Here's an example of the circular logic of the Trudeau bashers..... - "People are losing their homes, because of Justin's insane mortgage rates!" - "WTF is Justin doing giving everyone free money, just because of a little pandemic!" Literally, the same people.... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tons of respect for them and quite honestly wonder how they are going to get more much needed recruits with the mircoscope they are under. The amount some folks are drumming this up is laughable....'3rd world country stuff" What an absolute joke. It was a very mild interaction. The 'Rebel' once engaged, was still trying to push past and resisting. Yet, he still got to do his hate slinging right there while on the street. He was treated with kids gloves. 3rd world indeed! these goofballs fake news people probably try this at every event. You only need 1/100 or even 500 for something to happen to get your inflaming "story." Very convenient timing too. The Lich trial and the interference inquiry - remember that? - are not generating the outrage Skippy had hoped. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Skippy has done is bang the drum for years that anything bad in your life is JTs fault, even if its not even bad. Some will stick, he really only needs to shift single digit voter intentions. I mean look at the discussion over interest rates. People can't even discuss that rationally. Thats what people like Skippy do, make it impossible to have a meaningful discussion. He does it with every issue. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I bought my first house in 1979 the rate was 12%. I never paid under 8% until after 2008. I was paying 18 % in the ‘80s. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. The most corrupt ? K his job? Tell us, what do you think his job is? Any metric? Which one shows he has the sole power to have engaged in censorship, making up laws by himself or controlling the costs of day to day living. No no really. This should be good.

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.

Price of food, gas, etc are insane. It’s as unaffordable to be here as it ever has been. I'm glad you pointed out this distinction It's people. A lot of people bought stuff they couldn't afford if rates rose after being held to artificially low rates since around 2008/2009 The prices of food has etc are in fact insane, as is rent and housing. Who dictates these prices though? Is it the government? Or is it the corporations who have raked in insane record profits every quarter for 3+ years and individuals charging specific prices for housing? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People grabbing you when you don't want to be or don't deserved to be grabbed is very unsettling and not cool. Then forcing your hands behind your back and making you comply, again, not cool.

People are doing everything to hold on to their homes. They call it a lock in effect as the market shows signs of stalling. Good distinction bishop. Yes, the fear is there and right fully so... tough times, people starting to get behind on payments.. ...however.. Canada’s housing agency is warning of a looming “shock” for borrowers renewing their mortgages as a new analysis shows the pain of higher interest rates is starting to put pressure on some homeowners. Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. (CMHC) released its biannual report on the country’s residential mortgage market on Thursday. The analysis shows that more than 290,000 Canadians renewed their mortgages with a chartered bank in the first half of 2023, facing “significantly higher” interest rates and putting “financial pressure” on these borrowers. Despite the higher debt-servicing costs, CMHC noted that the mortgage delinquency rate in Canada is holding steady at the “historically low” rate of 0.15 per cent. https://globalnews.ca/news/10082126/mortgage-delinquency-rates-cmhc-nov-2023/#:~:text=An estimated 2.2 million Canadians,country%2C Bourassa-Ochoa wrote. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
