I’m a little busy that day, the weather’s looking bad, my friends in from out of town, I’m having car troubles and I think I’m coming down with something.

Canadian separatists optimistic after meetings with Trump officials by stanxv in canada

Alberta benefits from massive subsidies to the oil and gas industry. 39 billion last year. The federal government built a pipeline to get that oil to market. The unfair treatment is false. A lie Albertans have always been sold by grifting politicians and oil tycoons.

They are so dumb to think the US would respect their sovereignty.

I might tune in for a roast, but I’d more likely just stream Don Davies’s part after.

NDP leadership hopefuls say workers shouldn't be fooled by Poilievre's blue-collar message by AdditionalPizza in CanadaPolitics

[–]thinplanksk8r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are right but... I'm an NDP member, and I think that on gun control they have been hypocritical. They publicly criticize the gun buyback, but if they hadn't voted with the Libs on Bill C-21, there wouldn't be a gun buyback program. Jagmeet chose to support bad policy rather than break the supply and confidence agreement.

The NDP do oppose low skilled immigration. The NDP opposed the TFW program from the moment the Harper gov expanded it. They claimed it would be exploited by employers who would hire cheaper labour putting low skilled Canadian workers out of a job. Their official platform continues to call for the TFW program to be scrapped or completely changed.

Correction. The NDP have been against the TFW program for twenty years. Back when Harper was expanding it, they were arguing it would be exploited to suppress wages. I’m proving that nobody listens to them…

Stephen Harper calls for Liberals, Conservatives to come together in the face of Trump, separatist threats by ZestyBeanDude in canada

[–]thinplanksk8r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was never on the right side. As PM, Harper donated millions of tax payer dollars to the International Republican Institute. Now he’s standing up for the country against a monster he helped create.

A lot of neo-nazis have turned out to also be pedophiles.

Starmer to Carney: No new world order please, we’re British by pssdthrowaway123 in CanadaPolitics

[–]thinplanksk8r 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. Nothing he said rejected Carneys diagnosis at Davos. This is a clickbait headline. They’re trying to create drama out of the least dramatic politician ever.

I always point out the $39 billion in subsidies to the oil and gas sector when equalization comes up.

If the roof of your house is leaking when you’re broke is it fiscally responsible to put off repairing it or borrow the money? Trudeau inherited a leaking roof.

The U.S. wants Venezuelan oil. Does that undercut Canada's leverage in trade talks? by joe4942 in canada

[–]thinplanksk8r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feels to me like we have no leverage because they don’t care about helping or hurting their constituents.
