I am not sure how old you were so it is entirely possible you do not remember when Canada did not have a homeless population and that would be most of the history of this nation.

Another major policy issue facing the Carney Liberals is that his personal obsession with Net Zero and Climate Change is rapidly becoming off side with the Trump US government as well as political thought leaders like Bill Gates. It is also off side with China, India, Russia and their allies. There is no possibility of trade deals with these global partners unless we have pipes and ports able to move our nations national resources. Carney must be desperate for a majority so he can continue to advance the interests of the net zero crowd before Canadians understand Net Zero is dead.

China is not and has never been a “partner”. Gimme a break. They are gangsters, spies and thieves.

Where is all the money going? We have no-one to vote for. Liberal, Tory, same old story. Repeal the kebek - commie charter. Stop all immigration now. Deport now. What a mess. Crooked and corrupt to the core, all of them. Decades of this mess. No leadership anywhere. But why? Who runs the country, Ottawa? $ KEBEK $ Mass immigration, massive govt growth, debt...100s of billions stolen out of Alberta and Sask., BC, Ont. since the 1960s, 70s. Equalization (money laundering into kebec) 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. Repeal the kebek - commie charter. Stop all immigration. Deport. HELP

Maybe, just maybe, they shouldn’t keep voting the Liberals in. We had a very stable govt under Harper and we can get it back under Pierre Poilievre. Give him a chance. But, wait, with all the immigrants and minorities claims, lawsuits, drugs and crazy boomers nothing will happen. Carney wants an election; he only needs two seats for a majority! If he gets it, all bets are off and this country as we know it will cease to exist!

Boomer here. Female. Also a political geek for over four decades. Tried to talk politics with different ladies over the years. Dumb as sticks. ALL socialists or non voters. I am sooooo embarrassed by my gender. (Though not doing surgery. Lol) ps. I was a runway model for a while. So no one would guess my geek status. Great cover!

Since MPs can vote remotely nowadays, the "parliamentary flu" trick doesn't give the Conservatives enough plausible deniability.

Yeah. I don’t believe for a second, that the Pierre Poilievre Conservative Party will vote with the Libs. This is a new, rejuvenated Conservative Party.

Do you think Carney could prorogue?

Peter Floyd's avatar

If you mean once a nonconfidence vote is held then no. The federal government cannot use prorogation to override or avoid the result of a confidence(non-confidence) vote once it has actually been held.

If the House of Commons has already voted no confidence, the government loses its authority to govern.

That is good. I intended could he prorogue in advance of presenting a budget.

AS THE PRIME MINISTER HE HAS THE POWER TO SHUT DOWN PARLIAMENT AND RISK A MASSIVE TAXPAYER REVOLT (THAT MAY ALREADY BE IN THE CARDS). SO HE MUST BE CAREFUL WITH HIS NEXT STEPS TO MANAGE THE EXTREMELY ANGRY HIVES OF BLACK AND WHITE HORNETS HIS GOVERNMENT HAS CREATED. HIS BEST BET IMHO IS TO RESIGN AS FAST AS POSSIBLE AND RIDE HIS HIGH HORSE OUT OF DODGE.

Instead of growing the economy Liberals grow the government and the debt.
