2025 Canadian Political Thread

[overdone]

All of the"solutions" being tossed out there don't really matter. All of it will take years.
Besides, by the time we even start thinking about having a meeting about the feasibility study into planning on doing a study into the possibility of sitting down to decide which font the invitations should be written in. . . it'll be WAY too late.
We don't learn.

Yeah, I know. Kinda cynical. But that's what I see.

cynical, no, it's the reality of the past 9 years of Liberals

going to be the next 4 if Carney gets in

even after something sorta gets done, the incompetence still makes it way in

they built the Alaskan highway quicker than you can get an approval under the Liberals for a study

Carney isn't going to be any different, he's as much a green zealot as Guilbeault is or Trudeau pretended to be

he's on record repeatedly, wrote a book about it, created an organization for it

he's a net zero nut, he's not going to change now

just listen to the moron from BC Wilkinson, saying the same things

Carney left a guy who hates oil/gas in charge as energy minister

same shit/different superficial woke spouting figure head

more boring, slightly more normal, but still an elite out of touch 1%'er

who says one thing, does another

did you know our corrupt gov't pays the PM for "personal papers"

the Turd is expected to get 2 million

the stunned cunt who gave Trump the idea that Canada can't survive without the U.S.

only an idiot would have said that


they gave Harper 1.6M, Mulroney got a 1M

I guess the Toronto sun is a right wing pushing paper but this poll is kind of scary lol

Why the fuck is he the PM if he is not elected?

Why the fuck is he the PM if he is not elected?

An elected member relinquished his seat for the un-elected leader. The leader occupies the seat of another elected individual.

 

[ChromeGasCap]

This also happens when the leader looses his own riding.

Carney can only observe in the gallery. He must be elected to the House of Commons. An elected member may step down and offer their seat, usually a safe one (for a big barrel of patronage and a cushy position somewhere) and a by-election called for that seat. In this case, we will likely have a general election first.

Don't hate the player, hate the game. None of this is unusual in our system.

That is just insane but not surprising, it’s time for the Libs to go, they have run this country into the ground with their incompetence!🤦🏻‍♂️

He was elected to be leader of the liberal party by the liberals. Carney will be calling for an election in the next few months.

Trudeau stepped down. Which is a good thing. Trudeau is elegant and charismatic but he’s not a war negotiator. He sucked up to Trump and tried to appeal to trumps good side. Trump doesn’t have a good side. Trudeau made us look weak and dependent on USA. And now we’re in danger of being annexed by the bully next door. He said all the wrong things to somebody looking for weakness in everybody he does business with.

I think out of carney, Singh, and polivier, Carney has the best chance of standing up to Trump without losing his cool. I think he’ll be better at damage control. Which we need now, thanks to Trudeau.

I like Singh but he’s a bit of a hot head. We need a cool head.

Polivier seems to be full of lies and drama. A bit of a hothead too. Granted I have not actually watched any interviews with him or researched him much. I will be doing all of that when I go vote.

Ndp I don’t think stand a chance at all this election and I feel it’s an important election so at this point, I’m probably team carney. I like what I see so far.

I wish politically everybody thought like me. Haha

In Canada we don't elect individuals for PM, like at all. We elect the party. That is the correct answer to how our political system works. Kind of amazing how many people don't know how it works really.

Yes true, we elect the party but it’s the leader of the party that has to do all the wheeling and dealing and hand shaking with other nations. So who leads the party matters. It’s also the leader who has to debate other leaders of other parties and at least seem to know what he’s talking about in order to get his party elected. Although some people are die hard liberals, or conservatives and will vote out of habit more than knowledge of the issues.

I like the way Carney speaks and he knows about economy and money. Poilievre is a rat. Singh is a NDP and they are traditionally no good at economies.
The problem with Carney is that he will be/might be Turd 2.0.

Keeping the same carbon plan, still planning on buying votes with First Nations, welfare people and the people that need support from the government to survive monthly bills. (Saying that is a liberal thing to put people in the poor house only to depend on fed gov help; creating a voting block). You have to remember that Canada traditionally has been a company town for a rural farming people. The company (mining, forestry, pulp and paper), supplied houses and schools and those schools taught skills for their company or household skills for wifves. The end of the auto-pack in the 1990s and the killing of company towns (70-90s) led cities and towns to determine their own future or this is where more rural people went to the bigger cities.

What Canada needs is a shot in the arm for the economy. That means more steel production and oil production. This will require more pipelines, more refineries, and more steel plants. Raw iron production too.

All of which produces CO2 gas which liberal governments want to see decline, but is impossible if you want to grow your economy.

More steel mills for forging large steel pieces etc. Steel can be used for railways and high speed trains. Today Canada does not have heavy industry (Bombardier is the last where they make train carriages) . The rail lines in those big manufacturing cities have disappeared (Halifax to Ontario- Windsor and Hamilton).

Trade barriers were kept up by Federal gov to keep the provinces in line, otherwise we would of got rid of those tariff long time ago. Taxes for BC wines, taxes for Ontario wines etc. most provinces looked at it as protecting their fledgling enterprises.

Vehicles for the military. Drone systems for reconnaissance and attack. Anti-drone weapons (best being a 30-40mm rapid fire gun with auto-detect bullets). Ship building. Fast attack craft with missile systems and rapid fire guns. Arctic Patrol ships that have missiles and rapid fire guns for drones and missile defence (unlike our current arctic ships which are vastly unarmed).

The Liberal motto is we can have a military, but no guns and we won't give our soldiers anything to fight with. Or is that has been the US policy towards Canada for the past 70 years (Avro arrow and the BRAS de OR, being the most well known where political concerns cancel the best innovations Canada comes up with.)

The Biggest thing the fed government has to do is deal with the Aboriginal issue. Cancel all treaties, Annex their land and tax their lands. Have them pay income tax like every other Canadian. That would be fair treatment for everybody (Aborignals and all Canadian taxpayers) involved.
If we don't do that then the Aboriginals will hold our money and lands and they become the new masters of Canada. That is how the courts and Liberals will see it. Is it fair that generations from now that our descendants are still paying for those treaties a hundred or 2 hundred years from now. Costing taxpayers in the hundreds of Trillions of Canadian tax dollars. The law says it is the King/Crown that holds the land. Where I look at it as its all Canadian Citizens that hold the land.

The other thing that holds back innovation is patents. If something works better than everything else, then use it too. Originally patents were there to help the company recoup money spent on inventing something. A period of 20 years was held for the patents and then it became useable by all. During the cold war up to the 1990s patents were viable due to the secrecy behind them but they came with long standing gov contracts etc. Since the cold war, businesses have to invent, patent and make money asap to make a profits, so patents became the core process of making money for a company.

Since the end of the cold war you see more Billionaires due to the patent of things/processes. pls see how many lawyers these companies have to oversee that their patents are not impinged on.....

Carney should not be named PM until he holds a seat in Parliament. You must sit to be named PM. Can't have a group of people not in government to put someone in place that is not in the government. That is just being practical.

Other wise it just like Elon Musk holding a major gov position without being vetted by congress (using the us as a example).

If by thinking, you mean practical. Not an emotional reaction, but fact based thinking. Weigh the cons and pros. Find the best solution between everybody.

then you must have loved the Turd

or you're not paying attention, or more accurately the media isn't showing you

much like they don't with Trump or they did with the Turd, till it's too late and they get elected

go look at what Carney is doing, rather not

he isn't holding news conferences, when he rarely has, he's shown his true colours

much like the Turd, he has no time for Democracy/Parliament, he's said so

that's not important, he's moved on, he's acting like he has a mandate, he doesn't he's a caretaker PM

he shouldn't be going overseas, he shouldn't be announcing things, he should either call an election or recall parliament

when asked about his millions, stocks, deals, investments, much like Trump, he has no interest in telling

Plebs, Canadians, who like the way he talks, you?, exactly like the Turd did for 9 years

that he's smarter than you, you only need to shut up and do as he tells you and you'll be fine/better off

rather than think for yourself, go read the article from the UK

about how Carney thinks he's always the smartest person in the room

makes sure everyone knows that he thinks that

how he gets angry really fast when you don't acknowledge that

read about the recent media scrum where he had shown hints of that

when asked about his conflict of interests, actions so far, lack of them, disdain for the rules/norms

like he's above them

who does that sound like?

I'll give you 9 years to figure it out

9 more years of economic declined

cause he knows money/economics, but has no intentions of balancing the budget

that's why he'll have 2 sets of books, hide the carbon tax in another way, increase taxes on incoming products with a green tax

could go on, he's already said he'll continue bribing people with green bullshit, like the Turd

but he speaks gooder, got book learnin



you could have thrown a dart in a skinner prison and hit someone who

would look better compared to the Turd

the bar was so low it was on the ground

you should raise your standards, or Canada's standard of living will never recover

Is this meant to be a poem? You lose your credibility with what is a seemingly illiterate commentary.

No kidding, will need all the guns we can round up to fight off the American invasion.

Why does everyone think we need guns?

You would be surprised what a technical savvy person can do with chemicals, etc.

View attachment 118058

The Toronto Sun is just a right wing hack newspaper like the rest of the Sun/National Post chain. They lie, lie and lie. They don't report the news, they tell you what they want you to believe. Interestly, PP has suggested more support of these newspapers when he defunds the CBC. Yes, that right. Read the small print, PP will only defund those critical of him. A Trumpish move.

maybe so but much easier to load up the 12 gauge.

Understood but I know where my talents are!! And I have bad eyesight although with a 12 gauge, it probably doesn't matter!

 

[JimDandy]

The latest polls project a Liberal win. An amazing turn around considering earlier in this thread in January someone projected that the Liberals would only get 6 seats.

Of course the majority of the credit goes to Trump. Trump's tariffs may be awful for the country, but they have been a miracle for the Liberal party.

I heard on the news this evening that Trump said he didn't like PP but thought he could work with Carney and the Liberals. Though ironically, Trump's endorsement may actually work against Carney and the Liberals.
