The Arrogant Worms Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Does he even check what he writes? Trudeau reopens Veterans Affairs office Harper closed The reopening of the Corner Brook office marks the beginning of the fulfillment of a Liberal election promise to increase services to veterans. Hehr said more offices will be reopening "on as quick a timeline as we can," with plans to have all of them up and running by May 2017.

How many of those things do you think the federal government, or Trudeau specifically actually caused or has much/any control over? Groceries... Is largely supply chain issues due to COVID, Ukraine, increasing climate change events etc, as well as corporate profiteering. The former aren't in control of any government and are global issues. The latter likely gets worse under a conservative government, not better. Housing is a problem both parties have failed to address for nearly 3 decades, and beyond providing funding for public housing, is mostly a provincial and municipal problem/responsibility. Health care is also largely a provincial responsibility and also had to deal with said global pandemic burning out staff, extending wait times etc. Particularly thanks to a certain group of anti science folks who refused to do the bare minimum to help prevent those things. A conservative government will continue to push more of it to privatization which will negatively effect access to all but the wealthy. Social issues...? I thought you righties were for small government and freedoms? Ensuring equal rights to ALL is one of the very few roles governments should have in social issues. The homeless/drug epidemic is due to a lack of metal health funding/support, growing income gap (thanks to the aforementioned global economic issues, and aging population that were happening regardless of which party was in power in Canada) among other issues. We have a long way to go on addressing it under either party, but the cons generally aren't better for it. Particularly in their tendency to view it as a legal, rather than the medical issue it is. The Charter issue was deemed ok by one judge and not by another, was very close in both decisions, and will be going to the supreme Court. Whatever is eventually decided, it's a razor thin margin between whether it was overreach or not, meaning that even if it's decided it was overreach (I personally think it wasn't), it was BARELY so. Hardly the black and white "abuse of power" some are painting it as. Edited January 25 by aGENT 2 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also find it strange that Wiggums brought up trans sports records, since I'm willing to bet he wasn't personally impacted by that despite his implication that was a valid argument. Same for me with no kids & the value of the education system. I used the same logic when arguing about the Port Mann bridge tolls when people justified them as ‘user pay’ taxes. A better transportation system benefits everyone. Few things are more importanter than a good education. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4petesake Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 (edited) 39 minutes ago, DSVII said: For healthcare availability, I think you need to scrutinize the Conservative provincial governments, particularly Ontario, Ford deliberately underspent billions on healthcare in order to starve the public sector and encourage the privatization of health services. If Trudeau is sending money to the province and the province is refusing to spend the money to help Canadians, what is he to do? At the very least, he doesn't get all the blame here. The conservatives in Ontario plan to underspend $21 billion by 27/28 as well. So really how strong are your principles in this if we remove the Trudeau factor? Smith is following the Ford playbook. Your post is a must read for anyone criticizing Trudeau for healthcare. Feds fund it (all provinces always want more) and the provinces decide how to spend it, or not spend it in some cases.

aGENT Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 (edited) 57 minutes ago, Johngould21 said: During Covid it was a supply issue, now it's grocery magnets capitalizing on higher profit margins, they're trying at least to address housing, but it's also market driven as far as pricing goes, and healtcare, every jurisdiction in the World has a shortage of doctors, nurses, and healthcare workers. They're burnt out by the abuse of the likes of Trucker Convoy idiots, and anti vaxxers. Everywhere in the world has a shortage of workers in pretty much every field/sector. It's the result of an aging population. We simply don't have enough people to replace the older ones who are retiring. I'd love to know what people expected Trudeau/the Liberals to do about that (beyond the immigration they already also hate), or what PP would do differently to "fix" global aging population demographics.

Everyone's going to be different in terms of what they care about, what they support, and what they are against. Yes.
