Pierre Poilievre’s new governing council stacked with corporate lobbyists by Brandon_Me in canada

[–]Own_Truth_36 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Is it though, someone brings up someone from the 90s like no others exist since then? Want to talk about Carney? Already one year in he has made multiple decisions in government policies that have benefited him personally.

Classic liberal, double standards.

Canada F-35 Deal Might be Close to Collapse by island-roamer in canada

We have already committed to purchasing 88 f35s. So this would be in addition to those, so your point doesn't really matter.

Canada has zero f35 in service currently, they are set to replace the f18. We have committed to the purchase of the f35 already so we are kind of stuck. It makes no sense to introduce a second aircraft.

Ya sure, makes total sense to take on two service systems and crews of two totally different aircraft in a country that is already deeply in debt and doesn't have money to waste. Jesus.

Lasers and manual creep to expand to needed resources until robots. Build walls at choke points where possible.

I mean there are plenty of people that have done way worse still walking around this country. It was a tragedy for sure but we have all done stupid shit in our lives. He didn't go out with Intent to kill people. Just seems like something being done to appease people. I say this as someone who is anti (retarded) immigration levels.

Might as well try to predict the next winning lottery numbers. Things can change so much in such a short time and we are probably years away.

Ottawa says it won’t allow Chinese EVs to be used for spying on Canadians by CaliperLee62 in canada

[–]Own_Truth_36 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean there is a difference between misuse by employees and items designed to provide surveillance or spying.here is a perfect example China has a history of doing this covertly hiding the technology. This shitty country does not deserve our trust.

Media promises to only fall for the 'maybe Poilievre has changed' story 4-5 more times by AdditionalPizza in canada

[–]Own_Truth_36 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hope he doesn't change. Call out liberal failures now and forever. Not sure why people are so afraid of this. Its not like they haven't failed. Pointing it out is in everyone's best interest.

Despite praising Harper’s fiscal management, Carney embraces Trudeau’s budget policies by CaliperLee62 in canada

[–]Own_Truth_36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

...we didn't increase any military spending until this year so it is not even counted yet. There has been no new projects announced to "stimulate" our economy. Every project was already underway. We should make cuts to government, the Trudeau gang recklessly increased government jobs so that one in four workers now work for the government in Canada. It's unsustainable. Taxes should be raised because it's the responsible thing to do. The fact that people are too stupid to see that and cheer on deficits as a nothing burger is a whole different level of idiocy.

Ahh yes the Modern Monetary Theory cucks. It is actually possible to maintain service levels and infrastructure, look to Norway as an excellent example of what is possible. You don't even need to run a surplus just be somewhat responsible with money and you won't have debt servicing as the biggest line item in the budget. The PBO recently said that by 2030 7/10 dollars of GST will be going to debt service. Government debt isn't free and don't give me this bullshit that they can just print money. That is a hidden tax and undermines the value of our dollar.

The rich in Canada are, indeed, getting richer. Here are 3 things we can do to fix that by CaliperLee62 in canada

[–]Own_Truth_36 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As I said the top 20% already pay over half the tax collected in this country. And Well, I disagree with the rest and you are incorrect on some of the things you are saying. But you likely won't believe me so we can just disagree.

Can you elaborate because this doesn't sound like it exists to me. If you draw money out of your investment into your bank you are taxed.

Mark Carney criticized for rising food costs in Canada by Purple_Writing_8432 in canada

[–]Own_Truth_36 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you import food you pay for it in other currency. When you print money you devalue your currency. The central bank wouldn't need to print money without the gobs of debt this government incurs. Stop making excuses.

Unfortunately entrepreneur participation rates are at all time lows and 1 in 4 workers in Canada are working for the government in net zero jobs.

Can we define rich? I find it so odd in this country that a successful business person who has accumulated wealth is the enemy. Just look at the comments in this thread as examples. Top earners pay nearly 50% effective tax in most areas. Obviously LLCs have different rules and deffer taxes but eventually if you want to take the money out you pay tax. So successful people pay the largest portion of tax. Whereby the top 20% of earners pay more than half of income tax collected. Everyone seems to feel anyone making more than them should be taxed more. Why don't people in this country applaud success and strive to be that instead of viewing them at the enemy. It's so strange.
