    I wonder how many of the “fuck Trudeau” people are upset about this tax being dropped…which was introduced by Trudeau

      This is exactly what people voted for. People hate trump so much that they let their emotions cast their votes, Conservatives aren’t much better but we would’ve likely seen a different change of approach on how things are ran.

      NDP was suppose to be the in-between of Liberal and Conservative however, they’re far more Liberal than Conservative so it makes sense that their party isn’t crazy popular.

          What? How is the centre left party supposed to be in between the centre right party and the right wing party?

              Now I hear the angry noises here, and I’m pretty angry myself, but I’m hoping that this is one elbow down so we can get something for it, like keeping supply management. If we get fucked on all fronts then… Yeah. Fuck.

              I don’t like it either, but stroking Trump’s ego and not doing anything to set him off is probably a better strategy than telling him to go fuck himself. Although I really really hope it works out. If Carney doesn’t get a win the Liberals are going to be replaced real quick.

                  Where are my protest people? Nova Scotia and Ottawa. I’ll take any links or contacts you’ve got. I’m done with this shit. I’m out of the loop with the young family and old man shit but it’s time to buck up or shut up.

                    I have turned off a lot of US services and plan to have more turned off this week, I have been slowly cutting things as I come across them, my elbows are up it is to bad Carney has put his elbows down.

                    I was looking at my ISPs email stuff, for some reason? I found out they have moved to an exchange service, so a Microsoft protocol. I have sense started moving all of my emails off of there to (they are trying to stop offering email so it is nothing off their back).

                      Supposed.

                      let their emotions cast their votes[.] Conservatives aren’t much better but we would’ve likely seen a different change of approach on how things are [run].

                      No. We would have seen the cons capitulate completely and invite our new king. What part of everything the cons have done over 40nyears gives a different impression?

                      NDP

                      Had no chance of winning even a minority. And they won’t, as long as we need to focus on not getting conservatives driving our country into the dirt like they’ve done to our cousins in America.

                      It’s so tedious to repeat this.

                        I’m not sure if we’ll replace him just yet. He has to show that he’s tried all reasonable avenues and if he does and Trump still fucks us, then he comes out and says - I tried all I could, now we’ll have to take these unprecedented steps to prevent economic meltdown. I think in such a scenario Canadians would rally behind him and consent to COVID-like economic supports among other things, even WWII style policies around prices controls, taxes and so on, depending on how bad things get. The other parties would also be forced to support him because it would look pretty bad if they stood against taking care of Canadians during an economic crisis.

                          Replaced by the Conservatives who will try even harder to do everything Trump wants, because they have always wanted to turn Canada into the USA? We’re in a bit of a sticky spot here.

                                      I’m not sure pissing off bullies leads to fair deals either. I’m thinking Carney isn’t trying to get a good deal, but to avoid a trade war. Hell, Trump could order air strikes on Canada. He did it with Iran. Probably best not to piss him off. $2 billion in tax would be great but the government can also just print $2 billion if they really wanted to.
