@Kb1234567863403 @TheChaosWeeber A train already DOES pass there, can you read?
English
@TheChaosWeeber The blue line has another big problem, it cuts through the part of Frontenac park that has lots of lakes and rivers. If a train were to pass there, lots of bridges would have to be built adding extra costs. The red line is cheaper and serves way more people
English
The blue line misses Ottawa dumbass
Élie Cantin-Nantel@elie_mcn
There is a railway that is effectively a straight line from Toronto to Montreal. Shown in BLUE. Building high speed rail along it would make sense. Instead, the Liberals propose a boondoggle of a line, shown in RED, that goes through all these communities they need to win.
English
@TheChaosWeeber Build a 20km extension to it then, dumbass

Every country facing $100 oil:
🇦🇺 Australia: fuel tax cut in half
🇪🇸 Spain: fuel tax relief
🇮🇹 Italy: fuel tax cuts
🇵🇱 Poland: major fuel tax cuts
🇵🇹 Portugal: fuel tax relief
🇫🇷 France: targeted subsidies
🇩🇪 Germany: price controls
🇨🇦 Canada: raised industrial carbon price 16%

@sarbjitkaur1 Let’s try not sending $13B overseas for gender programs. Can we try that?
English
@TheChaosWeeber Maybe if Trudeau didn’t blow $13B on overseas gender programs we’d have the money to build some …
English
hey Canada, notice how many 3rd world countries have high speed rail.
FFS we're beating beaten by Morocco, Turkey, China, Uzbekistan, Indonesia etc.
and Algeria, India, Iran, and Egypt all have plans to build HSR.
You really are ok with canada falling THAT far behind?
English
@Coffey4Canada2 Not wasting billions on overseas gender programs. Done. Next question?
English
How do you propose replacing $30-$40 million a day in tax revenue?
How do you propose replacing $13 billion in tax revenue annually?
How do you propose balancing a budget?
Give us 1 good answer.
No slogans.

Calgary lost Tkachuk/Gaudreau in 2022, it’s not 2026 and their best young piece is Zayne Parekh.
Van started their rebuild in Dec 2025 and already has a better young piece in Zeev.
Imagine taking victory laps about guys like Matt Coronado in year 4 of a rebuild 😭
Mike Gould@miketgould
The difference is that the Canucks were already really bad pretty much every year they had Hughes. They only made the playoffs twice when they had him, whereas the Flames have had farther to fall. Now, we're here, and Calgary has a significantly better pool of future assets.
English
@59years_of_gray If they're entirely private, how does that help us? Why should private companies get rich off resources that belong to Canada?
English
So, building high speed rail is "the west subsidizing" the east.... But, building a pipe line isn't the opposite?
Also, this isn't remotely how taxation works. We don't pay "per person" for projects.
Paul Mitchell@PaulMitchell_AB
Ottawa wants to spend $90 Billion on high-speed rail between Toronto and Quebec City. That's $4000 out of the pocket of every Canadian taxpayer to fund something that 99% will never use. As usual, Western Canadians will be paying to subsidize Ontario and Quebec. Insanity.
English
@gator_gum Pipelines would be built with private money if the government would ever get out of its own way
English
@JeffreyLuscombe Wasting $90B on it while people can’t find doctors or work or afford food or housing is what gets Conservatives’ blood boiling.
Though you don’t care about any of that, do you?
This could be structured as a PPP and make way more sense. It’s not some righteous infallible plan.
English
Apparently this gets Conservative’s blood boiling.

A high-speed train is passing through the high-speed railway station at full speed. It looks cool.😎
English
@latestinspace Wish they would’ve put a camera facing downward/behind on the rocket and live-streamed the entire journey. Surely we have the technology.
Would help prove the flat earth and firmament idiots wrong too

@RodKahx They didn’t resign in the sense you’re suggesting. They committed major fraud and corruption, then slithered on to greener pastures before the slow, dumb majority of Canadians who support the liberal regime could notice.
You, being especially slow, STILL haven’t noticed.
English
They resigned. Pierre Poilievre forced someone who won their riding to resign. Here endeth the lesson.

@THudson59618056 @chalupe93 @HTBF1968 SNC-Lavalin interference, WE Charity contract, Aga Khan trip ethics breach, ArriveCAN cost overruns, F35 flip flopping, green slush fund, shady Brookfield deals, carbon tax lies, ethics violations rulings, housing/immigration policy disaster, blackface.
I could go on.
English
@chalupe93 @HTBF1968 If there was 11 years of corruption you shouldn't have a problem giving it. I can tell you CSIS India and Conservatives are part of their record.
English
@THudson59618056 @Nickboy71 @HTBF1968 According to who? Justin Trudeau? 🤣🤣🤣
You libtards need better sources

@Nickboy71 @HTBF1968 Justin Trudeau expenses were half of Pierre's and it was documented.

I'm trying to find the exact moment the Liberals discovered they could just announce things, do literally nothing to fulfill the thing, and nobody would care.
English
@aidenwpkenny It’s not the train it’s the (minimum) $90B price tag when millions of Canadians can’t afford food, can’t find jobs, can’t get a family doctor, can’t see a specialist for months, and can’t buy a home.
English
How the fuck are trains this controversial. Our whole country was built around a railroad 😭

@TheMingjie Ask the government who proposed alto in the first place for a plan to make it cost half as much, and then ask them why that wasn’t their plan in the first place.
English
I am very tired of people continuously telling us we can’t have nice things.
Give us a plan to build Alto for half the price (or offer alternatives for non-driving infrastructure!), not cancel it altogether.
Leaders must lead with aspiration, not trepidation, for the future.
Scott Robertson@sarobertsonca
Pierre Poilievre on the Toronto–Quebec City High-Speed Rail Network: "Conservatives oppose the $90b Liberal-Alto train ... a future Conservative government will cancel this $90b boondoggle altogether."
English
@RM_Transit What have the liberals built? What good governance amid scandal after scandal have they shown? Our country-wide infrastructure is falling apart. You are delusional.
English
@guyfromcalgary Nope, could be discussing the one of the one that came before it, which for some reason the CPC apparently wants to emulate
English
Don't build things. Don't govern well. Accept the basic infrastructure of the 1940s in 2026.
Pierre Poilievre@PierrePoilievre
Save $90 billion. Protect private property. Stop the Liberal Alto boondoggle: conservative.ca/cpc/halt-the-n…
