Until carney is thrown out of office Canadas downward spiral accelerates. The rest is noise.

Yup it’s true, that’s why the Canadian bobsled team named their sled “Carney) bc nothing goes downhill faster! 🤔

Thank you Brian for being a sane voice in the chaos. But as you note here, pure facts & truth are not things that Liberal voting Canadians are seeking, I don’t believe for one moment that they are curious or want to learn more. They are stuck on the TDS treadmill and the CBC keeps them fed with anti-USA rhetoric.

The elbows up crowd are afraid to learn more. They might find out that there are other valid opinions out there. Voting for the liberals for 10 years after getting screwed by them and then voting in another liberal government proves that to me.

Remain Calm's avatar

Agreed. I honestly feel like I'm living in the twilight zone as I'm watching brainwashed Canadians line up to vote in the same disaster government for a third term. It really does feel like many have just simply shut their brains off. I've never felt more disillusioned about the future of this country.

Karen Benz's avatar

It's very difficult to comprehend how people can be so, and I will say it, stupid. If something doesn't change soon, I really fear for the future of Canada. Actually there will be no future.

The liberals are like a happy marriage going sour. They are bad for business. Restaurants are closing at a record pace with higher taxes, food inflation, and rent. Beer sales are down. Ford empties a 40 ouncer onto the grass . Wokeism is rampant in schools. Where are we going to find doctors, lawyers, and teachers, when they don't teach math, chemistry, and physics. Gretzky was even challenged by the cbc for wearing a Canada pin at the Olympics. So sad.

Until the Self Righteous Smug Sheep of Canada realize this country does not exist without the US Trump will never stop kicking Kanada in the Nuts !!

Well if eastern Canadians would have thought long and hard before putting that X beside the liberal candidates name we would not be in this position as Pierre wanted all Canadians to bring more money in our pockets but eastern Canadians for some reason wanted to pay more taxes and have less. Money that really shows how uneducated eastern Canadians really are

HarleysAngelsMom's avatar

As I tell everyone when I read them state that eastern Canada as the culprit!! DO NOT! I REPEAT! DO NOT! Lump all Eastern Canadians in the same pile! Many of us hate the libtards and the clown and would never EVER vote them in!

Uneducated? Interesting. Does a biologists count? Or a few with PhDs. Im not sure how they vote.. they dont talk politics when i visit. Cheers.

Maybe you mean Central Canadians..??

Not sure beer sales are down. Beer from the big commercial breweries is hurting because craft beer sales are booming. Simply a case of a better product replacing an inferior one. However the accelerator tax is a bad idea and should be scrapped.

Tara Houle's avatar

Craft beer is declining. Oh and a more expensive beer doesn’t make it better.

Eastern idiots have no clue that it is the liberals that are causing all the problems in this country!!!!! Come on, you guys, open your eyes.

Jerry Grant's avatar

It is the same in the west and the east. Urban votes Liberal, rural votes Conservative. There is just way too much urban in the east.

Verna Scott's avatar

The population as per ctv in NS has decreased somewhat.. recently..interesting.. they are a province of part time jobs.. fishing etc.. so the liberals fight for them.. you know money to live on. I can't see knocking that.. many would travel to alberta and work in the oil fields. Till it snowed and came home.. used imemployment ir what ever ther is availabe to pay thd bills.. amd go back in the spring.

Well theres no oil field.. i don't understand why conservatives dont understand that or put a plan in place for them to survive.

Many homes there are outfitted with solar . And no ones buying them. Interesting. Us it like antisemitism..hateful towards a group .. they have no choice.. its a country problem...urban? Fish are urban so are farms...

Verna Scott's avatar

Why would they listen to you after you call them idiots. Lol. You are what you say.. i havd famikh there..far from idiots..

Karen Benz's avatar

Sorry Verna but anyone who still voted liberal after 10 miserable years with Trudeau can't have done their homework.

Verna Scott's avatar

I wasn't defending the fact how they vote.. the idiot comment. Tkdes one toknow obe Karen... ..cons do alot that..

Karen Benz's avatar

I think the eastern provinces are lovely and the people as well. I just wish they would stop voting liberal

Wouldn't it be nice if Canadians had a clue? The reason Canada is the dumpster fire that it is, is due to ten plus years of inept, petty, selfish rule by the liberals and the support they get from the msm and the low information electorate.

What Canadians need to understand is, when dealing with the US, we are not equals. Whether we want it or not, the US is ten times our size and economy. We need to stop puffing out our chests, take a pill and think of what's good for the country and our economy, not what we think will hurt Trump... he doesn't care about you, he doesn't care about me, he cares about his country... maybe we should too. Instead, we have. a liberal government that only acts in their own self interest and an electorate that simply isn't smart enough to see through Carney's deception.

I'd love to see legislation that would automatically call bi-elections when politicians cross the floor, but how likely will that be under our current political system, when foreign interference is ignored or politicians break the law with no consequences?

UncleMac's avatar

Floor crossing is an easy problem to solve; recall legislation. MPs who cross the floor usually say they want to better represent their constituents, often even claim they've consulted. Cool... if your constituents are happy with the MPs choice to change parties, they've nothing to fear. If your constituents are outraged, they will have a mechanism to correct the situation. If there aren't enough signatures, then the MP remains. Past the threshold, there's a by-election.

Recall legislation also has the advantage of when an MP is found to have breached ethics, committed a crime or whatever, their constituents don't have to be satisfied with a slap on the wrist from the Ethics Commish. Get enough signatures, there's a by-election.

Thank you for accuracies and Truth in perspective for Canadian realities!

Much appreciated! (B.C. senior)

Interesting article Brian. The beer tax going up every year is like their salary.. the rich can afford ..its the less fortunate that will find it annoying...again.

Trump .. hes adding another 10% ..did the judges do that on purpose.!? So much detail. Its within his right to do so. The judges didnt mention it because its within his right.. they just made the public it was unconstitutional... but the midterms are coming... he needs to look good. Bhaaaaa!!

Marg's avatar

Just grow your own hops and make your own, we seem to all be going back to the basics and you know… it’s much cheaper and way better for your health .

Verna Scott's avatar

Agree..... i do more cooking now..but beer..mm not sure!

Marg's avatar

Apparently it’s super easy, and you can make it organic even, plus make it have a lot more alcohol, and a lot more of it! Win win!!

Verna Scott's avatar

Ill check it out..tks

The Elbows Up one-two punch that will restore Canada-US relations to pre-Trump are the Supreme Court tarrif decision and this fall's mid-term elections, where the E-U crowd expect Trump to lose one or both Houses of Congress.

Then can Carney's management of Trump come to fruition. The E-Us can go back to Florida, they can buy their orange juice and their home prices and pension values will have been maintained.

That's what they voted for last spring.
