At this point, I couldn’t be more cynical about this man; his govt.

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! The commie - fascist takeover of Canada and when it began....proof – context- https://beforeitsnews.com/power-elite/2012/01/canada-how-the-communists-took-control-1637973.html HELP

Politicians keep proving to us how gutless they are and make a stand and us voters know it, so stand by you feckless politicians we will show you how it’s done

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

Just saw that ridiculous GS banker, Hodgson, babbling away again on P and P with football analogies about today’s announcements. These are not serious people.

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.

Rebel News, in my view, has changed significantly in the last few years. They've matured, they are doing good journalism.

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.

1759 - Lest we forget General Wolfe, The Fraser Highlanders, The Red Ensign (our real flag)...the reason we speak English in Canada. Our real BNA, UEL history. Canada now just 50, 60 years of lies.

I’m not sure why you are so concerned with the Liberals trying to undermine the Conservatives - PP does that every time he opens his angry mouth. Besides, that story is so last week.

Love all your artivles Brian. I find you fair and factual. Carney is the reluctant boyfriend as England labeled him. Now we know why. Promises promises promises . And never delivers. Or,

like watching a magician, with his slight of hand. Tricks!! were still watching..

Did anyone that is not a watcher of the mainstream media or who is not a Liberal pawn think that any of these announcements were going to be earth shattering ? I call those hard core Liberal voters pawns because that is really what they have allowed themselves to be. The MSM and the Liberal party back room people are doing a great job of keeping their attention diverted elsewhere - I will give them credit for that, but in the end - to what purpose ? What is it all going to accomplish for the prosperity of our nation ? Not much, and to me the sad part of it all is the ones who are going to hurt the most by these do nothing Liberals, the ones whose lives are going to feel this pain the most are the optimistic middle class and lower class Liberal voters who somehow think they are doing the right thing by following the CBC’s mantra “ In Carney we trust”. They do not realize that the CBC has an endgame here - the CBC knows that if the Liberals are ever defeated one of the first things to go will be their $ 1.15 billion dollar a year handout from the federal government. So to save their sorry asses they have decided to sacrifice the nation by spreading gossip, innuendo and rumour to prolong their 3% of market share . What I don’t get is Carneys motivation to do as little as possible ? It’s his endgame I just do not understand ? How does he think he will make out in the end by accomplishing as little as he possibly can ? When it’s time for action - and he well speaks of action - he does nothing. He dithers, he obfuscates, he makes countess photo ops with fake workers all wearing brand new hard hats and work clothing- which leads me to believe they are all plants, and then delivers nothing. He told Alberta that by Grey Cup Week he would have a major announcement on a pipeline, and he delivered nothing. He told Canada that we would have a trade deal with the US by the end of July and then he stopped talking to Trump ( while telling Canadians the talks were progressing and he and Trump were in constant contact - they actually did not speak again until October). Is he really just all about making sure he steers projects towards Brookfield, towards projects that he or his rich friends are invested in and to hell with the rest of the country because he is not going to stay as PM for long ? I just don’t get what he is in this for other than that, is it ego, status ? I wonder how long it’s going to take before those middle of the road Liberal voters start to question all of this as well. It’s going to be the affordability issue that will break the Liberals back. The more groceries, shelter, and taxes go up with zero relief in site, and no plans whatsoever on the horizon to deal with any of it - only denials based on facts by a government supported agency that states that the Liberal taxes have no effect on the price of food ( does any one with even a modicum of intelligence actually buy that ?) - the more I see the worm turning. Poilievre just needs to keep on point with those talking points and offering his plans - time will win out for him, despite all the Liberals and their MSM allies will try to do to muddy the waters with fake scandals and mock outrage over the slightest thing.

Carney better realize the mood is ugly in Canada, maybe ugly too tame, pissed off. If he wants a fight on his hand and an OKA 2, just keep it up. All he does if fly around, on those dirty airplanes spewing carbon all over but hey the rich man could give a rats a…., about the everyday guy. His soft baby hands haven’t done a hard days work in his life. You killed the ostriches, they were defenseless animals Carney and your gang of brown shirts, you won’t take us Canadians out that easy
