Really? None of this is made up or extremist? You want to connect dots without any proof. You see social media accounts deleted and immediately think you know the reasoning behind it. You don't need proof beyond that. You've figured it all out since you're the next Sherlock with a toy cigar pipe! lol

 

Like I said, I can't take you seriously dude. I really can't. rofl

Extremist? I stated facts.

I'm an immigrant, quit picking on me. 

 

Is that why you know so little about this country's history and how it works?  Perhaps you can enlighten us on where you're actually from, then.  This is a safe space for immigrants - except for a few crazy xenophobes.

No, I don't like you. You're mean and insensitive.

Listen man - you either know these things or you don't.  Judging by your previous answer to my basic question (who's on our money), you don't.  So when you start trying to reference Canadian history in your posts, why should anyone take you seriously?

Most of them. It's easy and cynical to say that they are all like Poilievre, but they aren't. Most of them are not running around saying the country is broken.

The ones in power will always say how great it is and blame the others for any problems and the ones out of power will always say how bad it is and blame the ones in power. That's politics. 

 

Trudeau blames Pierre for the division and says Canada is great, Pierre says the country is in the dumps and blames Trudeau.

Sir John A is on the $10. You fail at your own testing. 

 

Cocky and wrong.  MacDonald is not on our current $10 bill anymore and has not been on it for almost six years now.

 

Confidently incorrect

 

I'm also still waiting on you to name the others.  It's like answering 2/5 questions on a test and bragging about the answers you put down.  You're still getting a fail.

Oh good, the nice hair guy changed it. 

I asked you a question, you only named two people and you got one of them wrong.

 

It's a really simple question and any grown adult can answer it normally - they either can or they can't.  What you're doing is... bragging about getting it wrong.

 

Answer the damn question and name the five people on the bills.

Knowing who is on Canadas money doesn't reflect one's ability to discuss politics. Most people don't know or care. I am in that camp. I won't give a pass to the current nice hair guy or the next one, whether Pierre or Carney or someone else.

Not knowing about Canadian history and then claiming to proclaim Trudeau as the "worst in history" makes you look like complete clown.  If you actually knew your own country's history you could actually make some legitimate comparisons.  But you can't.  Because you simply don't know.  You don't know anything about Canadian history, you don't know anything about Canadian federalism, and frankly you don't know anything about Canadian politics.

 

If an American started talking about US history to you but can't even name the people on their dollar bills, would you waste your time listening to them?

Our elected officials. This is a text between Marco Mendicino and Mr Lametti. I am sure it's coincidence again that his resignation was today. 

 

Especially given the RCMP says level 2 was not met (which meant the Canadians illegally parked in Ottawa honking were not being violent).

 

Marco is already resigning. More will follow. Interesting Carney mention.

Sorry there isn't an official ranking for PMs but Trudeau is the worst I've ever known.

 

My official ranking. You don't have to take part. 

 

Name calling, you should get some help.

You know I actually have to agree with you on this one.   Despite that, I think calling somebody the worst PM in history really should require some knowledge of history.

You said on record he is the worst in history.  By default that requires you to actually know who all the PMs were.

 

And for what it's worth, knowing your own country's history would dispel most of the misconceptions you have about what a federal government does in Canada.  The fact that you're unwilling to learn history is ignorant, and even worse, unpatriotic.
