Alflives Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 3 minutes ago, The Lock said: There's certainly some truth to it. Just look at the great depression in the 30's and how many fascist governments were created from a lack of economy. In desperate times, people will do desperate things. Emotions can be more easily targeted when people are emotional. Exactly! People need good jobs. We have a country with an abundance of natural resources that can provide those good jobs either directly or indirectly. IMHAO Poo Poo and the Cons won’t help turn the clock back to the time when we had an economy so strongly based on those “dirty hands” jobs. They will line their pockets and cut social programs. What we need is a government that puts good paying resource industry jobs ahead of tree hugger policies. And then use the economic wealth for a social safety net that all Canadians can access when needed. What we’re doing now is borrowing the money for our social safety net and it’s got a lot of holes that need mending we can’t afford. Good paying jobs are the key. And those jobs are here in our resources. We have to “pump, mine, and chop” our way back to a resource based economy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not forget the havoc Russia has provided since 2020. Look at the short list countries doing well: https://www.visualcapitalist.com/ranked-the-fastest-growing-economies-in-2024/ And where Canada sits amongst those doing not so well: https://gfmag.com/data/countries-lowest-gdp-growth/ I'd be curious to know what you think will improve matters and why you think so.

Privately messaged people to claim you were being victimized and then insulted them. Posted some questionable opinion columns and Twitter links then told people how smart you were and how they must be jealous you have an economics degree and they don't.

Too bad his ego seems to be getting in the way. Im sure @Bob Long would be ecstatic if ol mark carney took the reigns. I'd dance a jig. The libs desperately need a good financial manager again, in the style of Paul Martin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beep boop logic here’s some help maybe Trudy should have appointed an economist or banker to be finance minister, instead of a journalist with no education or experience in either self explanatory inflationary spending by the Trudy govt has been the cause of the economic problems stop doing it and show some restraint vs spending like drunk trust fund babies with OUR money we’ve established I have an econ degree, and I also have masters and other financial certifications.

It sounds like a change, which you are advocating is needed regardless of whether it would be positive. The alternative would be Trudeau or electing the neo-Nazi vermin you keep defending. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've been casting your assumptions about a lot of people in here and displaying a lack of intellectual honesty for a couple days now. Thats on you. If you want real conversation, maybe you could have some self reflection on your approach. I wont hold my breath. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
