Idiot. If you can't 'fix' it in 5 years, you don't get to blame anyone but yourself.

You know what? We can have a discussion about Canadian politics without calling the Prime Minister an idiot.

A good Leader is able to surround him/her self with good people.

 

https://nationalpost...-justin-trudeau

 

"Wei also was among a delegation of four representing a Chinese government-endorsed industry group that met separately with Trudeau. Another member of the delegation donated $1 million to the Trudeau Foundation and the erection of a statue honoring the prime minister’s father."

 

Papa Trudeau sold us out in the 70's There should be a statue that commemorates that! 

Created during the Great Depression, the Bank of Canada funded a wide range of public infrastructure projects from 1938 to 1974, without our governments incurring private debt. Projects like the Trans-Canada highway system, the St. Lawrence Seaway, universities, and hospitals were all funded by interest-free loans from the Bank of Canada.
But in 1974, the Liberal government of Pierre Trudeau was quietly seduced into joining the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) – the powerful private Swiss bank which oversees (private) central banks across the planet. The BIS insisted on a crucial change in Canada.
According to The Tyee (April 17, 2015), in 1974 the BIS’s new Basel Committee – supposedly in order to establish global financial “stability” – encouraged governments “to borrow from private lenders and end the practice of borrowing interest-free from their own central banks. The rationale was thin from the start. Central bank borrowing was and is no more inflationary than borrowing through the private banks. The only difference was that private banks were given the legal right to fleece Canadians.”
And that’s exactly what “the fraudsters” did. After 1974, the Bank of Canada stopped lending to federal and provincial governments and forced them to borrow from private and foreign lenders at compound interest rates – resulting in huge deficits and debts ever since. Just paying off the accumulated compound interest – called “servicing the debt” – is a significant part of every provincial and federal budget. In Ontario, for example, debt-servicing charges amounted to some $11.4 billion for 2015.

You must have experienced him differently

 

Lets just remember that its far better to be thought the fool than to open ones mouth and remove all doubt. Unfortunately JT is the poster child for that phrase

Foreign Affairs Minister Champagne has two mortgages from the Bank of China valued at $1.7 million USD. - https://www.theglobe...te-run-bank-of/ He had praised China earlier in the year for sending Canada what turned out to be unusable equipment to fight coronavirus.

Now China has said the “good health and safety” of Canadians in Hong Kong and that of Canadian companies operating there is in question if Canada interferes in Hong Kong-related affairs. - https://www.theglobe...-kong-refugees/

The Pandemic and all the massive spending has numbed the population. On top of that our national media is so focused on Trump that they ignore the absolute bs, scandals, ethics and possible corruption going on in Canada.

 

Singh is an idiot. In fact he's Trudeaus Useful Idiot. He lost 1/2 his seats in the last election and he and his party treated it like a victory simply because of the resultant minority govt where he gets to play king maker in propping up what will likely turn out to be the most inept corrupt govt our country has ever seen.

 

Singh is a miniature Trudeau, he basks in the meagre sunlight that Trudeau lets him have and thinks he's a great statesman. He has no clue or maybe he does but has no care of how he is being manipulated and played. As long as the LPC keeps moving harder left Singh will prop him up. At some point the people and the media have to wake up to see the sheer financial damage these 2 parties have caused. It will be generations before we dig our way out if ever.

 

Look for taxes on sale of your primary residence, inheritance taxes, increased capital gains taxes, corp taxes and likely 10% GST. We are going to enter the decade of despair and Singh will giddily trot along making more TikTok videos.

No consensus, but there's open musing that the NDP will abstain, making the vote come down to the Greens and independents
