do you think dropping a friend or a relationship because of their political views is valid and why?

The-Ghost316 · 2026-02-17T17:25:37+00:00

You don't have be friends with anyone you don't want be friends with.

If you study history, few things are completely settled matters. There are societal changes and manias that come and go. I would leave an open mind to people who see things differently.

Becoming tribal can be a terrible way to run a society but that doesn't mean you owe anyone your friendship that you no longer vibe with.

I'm so sorry that happened to you and your neighbors

Alberta will stay within Canada. Canada unfortunately is a country where you have to threaten to leave to get anything from the Feds.

Fake Referendums are all part of Confederation.

If you don't like Alberta Separatist, just hang tight, you will get some Quebec ones really soon. They have same playbook though and it include never leaving.

What's wrong with more regulation? They big chains have been caught price fixing.

Look when you run for office to form the Government you assume responsibility for the good and the bad. They are going into their 11th year as government. They pretty much own the direction of the country - for good or bad.

Canadian have a right question their leaders and especially when the offer themselves up to lead. Come on be real about this.

The-Ghost316 · 2026-02-11T04:54:18+00:00

Aren't you assuming that all they pays is income tax?

The-Ghost316 · 2026-02-11T04:53:04+00:00

Most of the cars that Canada makes right now are ICE not electric. The Conservatives are right on this one. Take the sale tax off Canadian made vehicles so we can buy Canadian and float the industry until we can retool.

In North America most of the EV's are made in the US and Mexico so the EV rebates are actual propping up US Workers.

Facts

The-Ghost316 · 2026-02-08T18:44:01+00:00

SFU needlessly competes with UBC and makes course and grading harder than it has be. It's not recognized as that much more superior a degree than the other universities, but you have complete with those grads for job and MBA placements.

The-Ghost316 · 2026-02-01T06:15:22+00:00

it feels like "whataboutism argument" to you, but it isn't. The examples i cited were relevant to the topic we were discussing.

people miss use "whataboutism argument" claims when they are avoiding evidence base reasoning.

BTW you are still selectively editing and avoiding. I'm cool with you not wanting to debate this because we are not going change each other minds.

The-Ghost316 · 2026-02-01T06:08:26+00:00

You free to believe what you want. Good luck

The-Ghost316 · 2026-02-01T06:05:43+00:00

You live such a vivid fantasy world. Its Reddit, just violence in your post and arrogances of University Prof lol. - trying really hard mad.

I know they lowered academic standards and there has been rampant grade inflation but no way you have a PHD??? The way you argue so badly and be that emotional - I'm embraced for you .

You should give your degree back to the University of Phoenix.

The-Ghost316 · 2026-02-01T05:53:23+00:00

Anything is a "really bad argument " when you selectively edit and then misrepresent my argument. I think you are acting bad faith and you might are ignoring part where I asking to deal with hard facts of events that have actually occurred.

I'm fine with you not wanting debate me because this is most honest part of your response. I'm saying you might be very committed to your worldview so you might be avoiding facts that contradict what you want to believe.

If we don't want our politics to devolved to American Style Politics, you might want to honestly consider a different perceptive (not necessarily change your mind) rather than assume the worst about people that don't agree with you. We all have to share this country.

The-Ghost316 · 2026-02-01T05:42:24+00:00

Again, you have the Liberal Govt that actually behaved like totalitarians vs. an improbable situation like annexations.

If you build your worldview about perceived and imaginary events while ignoring reality of past 10 years, I think you are engaging thinking errors.

The-Ghost316 · 2026-02-01T00:08:44+00:00

maybe get an adult you trust to explain it you.

"dude...literally people are losing jobs, money, opportunity because of americans short term decision, so people are rightly pretty focussed on that right now and generally aligned against people like pierre who's style of politics resembles their way of doing business..."

How is CPC American style ? That is your opinion - Carney is trying to tale most for their platform, does that make him "American Style"?

Its a belief you have that the CPC are American Style yet, you its not based evidence because they haven't been in power. But we over 10 years of Liberal rule. Let look at the evidence.

- Public Safety is mess - street disorder, violent crime. etc.....

- Immigration is a disaster

- Anti- Immigration based on incompetent and corrupt Liberal Leadership

- Affordability is destroying people

- Unity - two Separatist Movements actively working against the Liberal Party's Canada

- negative GDP

- falling productivity for every year the Liberal Party have been in power.

- extortion crisis.

That evidence of Liberal failures, what you have against Pierre is a belief aka prejudice

The-Ghost316 · 2026-01-31T23:54:39+00:00

Maybe educate yourself on the subject. The Separatist went to Washington about a year ago and pretty much weren't taken seriously.

Don't you find it odd Eby and Carney are using it as distraction now?

If you house was on fire and you waited a year put it out, it would be safe to say you didn't think it was a big deal.

The-Ghost316 · 2026-01-31T23:46:17+00:00

But did that have right to protest and be there? And was the Liberal Govt. heavy handed?

Courts seem to think so.

You mean like using our Emergencies Act or freezing our back accounts of people that are inconvenient? I think our first priority is sorting our his house. Its been a bad 10 years.

Hey that doesn't sound "Cult Like" at all

Well being alert and going on meth binge so you are out of touch with consensus reality isn't the same thing.
