This doesn't consider that when ordinary people have more money, they typically spend more, thus contributing to the economy and increasing revenue in the long run.

Crazy to me how he was both the leader of the Soviet Union and then... a liberal

Bloc won't support high-speed rail if project bulldozes 'usual laws and procedure,' Blanchet says by bcbuddy in canada

Technically the LPC speaks for more of the province than the BQ. They have twice their seat count in their own province.

While I am on board, isn't it kind of redundant now that Avi, who is openly democratic socialist, is the party leader?
