The over $350 billion in COVID spending was done by all 4 parties. This is an inarguable fact. That was 5 YEARS AGO all the other developed economies are emerging from Covid. We are actually departing from the US GDP growth curve. We are doing horrible in comparison to our peers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t realize temperatures over countries were like a thermostat where if we turn down our carbon it will get cooler here lmao That nonsensical sentence just outlines your lack of understanding of the issue.

We are doing horrible in comparison to our peers These are again simple facts. 29 months of 4 party spending of over $350 billion. 5 years of our nation being run by a minority government. Do you understand why this is an important fact to the narrative you are pushing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmchairGM22 Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Just now, Warhippy said: Answer the questions. As an economics expert it should be very easy Is inflation going down? Are wages up? Who controls the prices of food, fuel energy and housing in Canada? Yes inflation is going down because the BOC had to raise rates at an unprecedented pace due to Trudeau’s incompetence real wages are not up across the board govt and unions yes, but certainly not enough to overcome the last 3 years of inflation- there’s more to numbers than one little headline dude Markets set prices govt intervention in markets such as carbon taxes distort market dynamics and increase costs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satchmo Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 19 minutes ago, NoHeart said: Why would I even waste my time explaining things to someone who is so blindly bias that you’re looking forward to another JT term. We don’t speak the same language. I have absolutely nothing more to say to you. Now that is truly a biased, uninformed, and illogical statement. Please show me a post in which I say I am looking forward to another JT term. To keep you from wasting your time looking, I'll just promise you there are none. You will find many posts where I voice my distrust for PP. Having to choose between the two is something I hope we all can avoid next year. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets give you a whole penny per can for each of your line items, and a penny per can for the driver to deliver the cans, about 100 times per can what it is in reality. 10 cents a can for carbon tax in increases, yet the price of a can of cambells chicken noodle went from 80 cents to 2.49. I know for a fact carbon pricing has nothing to do with that price hike because i own Loblaws shares and my latest dividend cut off was a few days ago and i am going to get a drip more than half the folks earn in a month. Don't hate the playa folks. Loblaws is still the cheapest place around for a basket of groceries but they are making record profits and paying them out to shareholders like me.

Satchmo Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 1 hour ago, Elias Pettersson said: The fact that he is running for a 4th term and has no desire to resign tells me he is somewhat of a dictator. Or at least has those thoughts in his head. I mean who the hell would run for a 4th term when they are being destroyed in the polls and their popularity is at an all time low? Even Chretien resigned after 10 years and 3 terms... Kinda like that FDR guy. Minus the war I guess but still. There were a lot of dictators around in those days so I guess one more didn't matter much. Now I know how you feel about JT; you know how I feel. I just thought that statement was a bit over the top.

Many folks are very happy with the start of pharma and dental programs, theres another one.

But more importantly, how will PP control gas companies from simply gouging and keeping prices high? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
