Until I see or hear different this past week of budget and project announcement is just one huge Liberal "dog and pony" show. They are over selling to the nth degree . What is upsetting the most is that there is no "palace revolt", no one in this party can be that naive to believe in this pie in the sky budget. In the past 10 years we have gone from the horror distaste of 20 billion dollar debt to the the projected 80 billion and this Liberal party says this good for the country and Canadians - fantasy land in spades. I will not even begin to outline the downward evolution of our "hypothetical" judicial system.

All lies, all bs...decades of this now... We are broke, but why? 100s of billions stolen out of Alberta and Sask., BC, Ont. since the 1960s, 70s. Equalization (kebek takes over 50% every year) became entrenched in his commie charter = kebek communist Pierre Trudeaus constitution of 1982. Since then, 25 years of Liberal govts have made things worse. 18 years of 'Conservative' govts, the exact same thing. Kebeks Charter = 10s of billions stolen out of Ottawa yearly and funneled into quebec and other metis (they are not french) – towns and companies, all across the country every year, all disguised as grants, subsides, equalization, transfers, bilingualism (code for french) – only outside quebec while kebec bans our language, history = bills 22, 178, 101, 96. Multiculturalism (only outside kebec), massive government growth, control, censorship, surveillance, taxes and debt. Canada now just liberals masquerading as conservatives, the rest, communists masquerading as liberals. ’French power’ in all provinces. They are revising, eliminating our BNA history all over the country as they rename, remove all things English, Scottish. Election fraud? YES, guaranteed. Why? Simple, they lie about everything. Welcome to Marxist - commie Canada where your vote is meaningless. Why? Bigoted = Socialist = marixst = commie = kebec runs the nation. This IS the problem, and No party, NO ‘leader’ will touch it. ‘Cons’ Poliver, Ford ?...nothing, not a word. “First quebec, and Ottawa and then the entire country…” ‘french power..." PET. $ Seriously, how do we get these lying, crooked, corrupt greedy metis bigots out of Ottawa, Queens Park? We have no-one to vote for. Liberal, Tory, same old story. Stop all immigration now. Repeal the commie – kebek charter. Deport now. Kick kebek out = Fix Canada. Or break up Canada. Anybody, somebody? HELP!

Just like the dam with a missing brick, that trickles out until the pressures too much and it destroys the structure. A lot of people in Canada anyways have thrown the brick away and want action.

The Butts contrived liberal strategy to smear Poilievre with a compliant propagandized MSM to deflect from the horrible liberal budget appears to have worked initially.

Cost of food and mortgages and gas ( gas up 25 cents / litre this month) is biting

That should resolve some of this.

But you will notice ( paid?) liberal posters pretending to be conservatives asking for a conservative leadership review , and offering liberal talking points are on line everywhere. Even here on your substack.

Sadly working stiffs don’t have time and energy to sort through this liberal chaff.

So keep writing Mr Lilley. Thank you

I read your columns in the Sun Brian and I find you to be extremely fair in your writings. It is seldom I disagree with you. I think the liberals are scared shitless of Pierre Poilievre and that's why they want him gone. He is a voice of common sense and reason, something they know nothing about. Congrats on being an influencer.

The Liberals are not "scared shitless" of Pierre Polievre. A friend who is a staunch and well connected Liberal says they actually prefer PP because they know they can beat him. The CPC has to develop a team of experienced campaign operatives who can think outside the CPC box and turn some of the LPC's dirty tricks against them in a guerilla war style campaign instead of just campaigning on fiscal responsibility. Gerald Butts was good at this, surely someone in the CPC can manage to do the same in response. And Conservatives, for god's sake quit bitching about d'Entremont crossing the floor, it's happened 80 times in the last 25 years, 300 times since Confederation. The more we yell about it, the better the Liberals like it. It's over. Note that NO Conservatve government ever changed the rules to prevent floor crossing, they like it just as much as the Liberals when the crosser comes in their direction, ie Leona Alleslev.

CarbonTax Carney's list of major projects from the major projects office is merely a lip-service attempt to show Canadians "...see, I've got some sh!t happening". Under his breath though, he's muttering, "...this should keep silly Canadians busy thinking I'm so progressive and on top of things - now I can get back to my climate agenda subterfuge". These 'projects' are a bunch of underwhelming duds injecting nothing into the Canadian GDP....now about those EV mandates

This MPO is a major con - allowing the PM to have a big say as to what projects move forward or not! Why not improve the regulatory and assessment process (remove uneccessary barriers, including FN consultation barriers) and let the proponent figure out if the project is worthwhile taking further. PP is correct - remove the barriers and let current and future investors decide the merits of making a major development happen. I challenge the reader to look at the past 10 year chart of the Canadian dollar versus any other currency - it doesn't look good. Canada needs a serious wake-up call in my opinion.

If what’s going on at the moment $80bn deficit as I predicted before Freeland walked, doesn’t waken Canadians up, nothing will. But then, so few bother about such trifles as the economy until their welfare cheque stops.

Indeed - that is the worrying part! Sadly, it's going to take something significant (like some good investigative journalism - if it exists), to expose the corruption and major conflicts of interest at high levels of government OR a huge scandel of some form. David at "Mooseontheloose" has made a start at this on www.moosechart.ca. This requires detailed assessment to follow the money. Maybe this might offer the beginning of a wake-up call??? Likley not, sadly.

Most Conservative voters are behind Pierre. We stand with him and won’t change our minds because Carney is the same Liberal bullshitter as Justin was.

It's stunning to learn that the Liberals would blow out political capital to announce a second round of Super Duper, nation building projects and then state that just because they made the cut doesn't mean they're approved.

Huh? That only makes sense if some projects were late add-ons to provide bulk and the optics of busyness, when the real story is just a typical slower than molasses Liberal government program.

At the presser, they hauled out Jean Charest's Trilateral Commission BFF, Dawn Farrell, who somehow got the gig to run the major project's office after presiding over Transalta while it lost almost half its' value. Where do they find these people? So many questions.
