@rupasubramanya Another day of propaganda from Rupa, no mention of rising unemployment or continued Liberal failure, just distraction and attacks on the opposition.

The Liberals are gaining among all age groups including young voters, the group that is most affected by high youth unemployment.

@ProudNBer @MichaelCooperMP Reminds you in that it is a lie that can be easily disproven? Feds pay less than they have promised for health transfers, even with special covid programs,there is no missing money.

@MichaelCooperMP I have a few questions that you should be asking.Since this PrescribeIT program was in partnership with Provinces,& had to be requested by them,what did they do with all our money?Which provinces requested money? Reminds me of the missing health care money that provinces misused.

JAW-DROPPING Executives of the Liberals' failed PrescribeIT program PADDED their pockets with BIG BONUSES, while the CEO walked off with $1 MILLION. Meanwhile, Carney's Health Minister watched as $300M tax dollars DISAPPEARED. Liberal insiders get rich. Taxpayers get SCREWED.

@Kikiwips @TamWarren16 @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre @grok Did you just not read the information or just that committed to lying? x.com/i/grok/share/3…

@dman0067 @TamWarren16 @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre @grok So before Carney even became PM? Got it.

The number of young Canadians forced to live with their parents is out of control. More than a decade of Liberals has made it massively worse. Let’s cut red tape and building taxes across Canada, so our young people can afford to live in a home of their own: conservative.ca/cpc/end-the-ne…

Again. There should be no chance of benefits, that is why divestment is the preferred option. But we have now pivoted from the start of this thread, where you tried to equate Poilievre owning half a condo as equivalent to Brookfield and Carney’s role, which you mischaracterized and downplayed. Since you felt Poilievre’s investment was relevant, it is hilarious that you dismiss the large amount of proof provided that Carney could financially benefit from Government policy and programs. x.com/i/grok/share/5…

@dman0067 @TamWarren16 @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre And where is there proof that Carney is sending government business to Brookfield?

@rupasubramanya Rupa talking about the import issues facing Canadians, the opposition leader not behaving the way she thinks he should. Glad minor issues like these don’t distract her. bnnbloomberg.ca/business/econo…

"Poilievre and his defenders point to the vote share, the number of Canadians who voted Conservative, the closeness of the result, the media, the elites, the Liberals, and the political class. But politics doesn’t reward what you think you earned. It rewards what you actually win." Another great read from @t7_linda .

@Kikiwips @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre @grok, please tell Kiki about all of Mark Carney’s roles and influence at Brookfield in both Chair/vice-chair duties and management of ESG and other investing.

@dman0067 @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre The most influential is the CEO and all members of a board hold equal voting power. My husband sat on a board. He didn’t hold that much power over the companies decisions.

@Kikiwips @TamWarren16 @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre @grok, can you please advise Kiki of Canadian Federal Government contracts and initiatives that directly or indirectly benefit Brookfield?

@TamWarren16 @dman0067 @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre Can you provide these contracts they have gotten? They are an investment company, so I’m curious what these contract are.

@Kikiwips @TamWarren16 @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre Why is that relevant? It doesn’t have to be the most successful to benefit others, it just has to get the Government business directed to it.

@TamWarren16 @dman0067 @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre I’ve compared Brookfield’s stock price to other investment companies, and they aren’t even at the top of being the most successful in year over year.

@grok @williamsjdjr @daveweigel Can you answer jw’s question, please?

Maine has a seat Trump carried three times, NH has a competitive district drawn by a GOP trifecta, CT and RI have competitive seats that Rs lost by single digits in 2022. Rs are targeting #ME02 with a top recruit (Paul LePage) this year and could win it. There’s not really a NE equivalent to the new TN map or the IN map Trump favored, where Rs could run 15 points behind Trump’s 2024 vote and still sweep.

Ah yes, no defense so you instead mischaracterize my argument to the extreme. My argument is that the trust isn’t enough to guarantee and real independence as the PM know the portfolio when it went into trust. Any option should be removed. It is your argument that embraces the absolute that all can be trusted. I couldn’t care less about what others are saying, this has always been my belief. The current PMs former position and large share ownership in a multinational with billions of Government contracts is what has brought it to the attention of others.

@dman0067 @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre So according to you, all PM’s are corrupt and have benefited from their office. I don’t need to defend anything, I’m stating the facts. If the system is problematic, why is it only now that people like you are speaking about it?

@Kikiwips @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre x.com/i/grok/share/a…

@dman0067 @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre Look it up. What happened to “researching”?

@bpellerin Journalist? 🤣🤣🤣

He truly, profoundly, understands nothing. What a terrible thing for conservatives in Canada to be represented by this man. He’s not serving them at all.

@CaptainDick12 @bpellerin I guess that means we can dismiss Carney's comments on affordability since he receives the same and more?

@bpellerin Poilievre who lives in a free mansion, with free butlers, cooks, and maids, and gets a ride to work in a government paid limo is telling us about "privilege"?

@carol_nasvytis @harryt59_harry @sunn_time @macleans And then you woke up and wrote about it in your dream diary?

@harryt59_harry @sunn_time @macleans I’ve seen her leap to Poilievre’s defence on more than one occasion.

In an era when objective truth is a nice-to-have and the bar for politicians is in the depths of hell, it’s helpful to have someone like Rosemary Barton in the mix. For more than two decades, Barton, currently the CBC’s chief political correspondent, has chatted with, fact-checked and, when the occasion merits it, borderline interrogated the country’s most consequential public figures. Lately, thanks to some unusually exciting policy shifts under our refreshingly boring new prime minister, Canada’s newsmakers are commanding global headlines. But first, they’ll probably pop up on Rosemary Barton Live. And yet, as any journalist will attest, her job has never been harder. If politicians would prefer to sidestep tough inquiries, The Joe Rogan Experience and Call Her Daddy offer warmer, cushier landings. But as this country embarks on a 360-degree nation-building makeover, Canadians have more questions than ever. Barton is doing her best to get answers—no filler. macleans.ca/culture/rosema…

@Reil76 The costs of the services you mention are included in the calculation that Albertan’s contribute more in taxes than they receive in Federal transfers and services, they don’t suddenly appear.

Lets actually sit down and do the math on Alberta separation, because it seems like nobody else wants to. Right now, Alberta’s budget is roughly balanced. About $70-75 billion in, same amount out. It’s not perfect, but it works. The second you leave Canada, you don’t just stop sending money to Ottawa. You inherit the whole damn machine they were running on your behalf: borders, military, pensions, Employment Insurance, courts, federal policing, Indigenous obligations, foreign affairs, currency, central banking, all that shit. That’s not some rounding error. That’s an extra $30 to $60 billion a year in new costs slamming onto a province that was already spending every dollar it made. So now you’re looking at $105-135 billion in annual spending against $75 billion in revenue on a good year. That’s a $30-60 billion hole every single year, and nobody in the separation movement wants to talk about it. And it gets worse. You’re also picking up $120-150 billion in inherited federal debt. That’s another $4-6 billion a year just in interest payments before you’ve even hired your first border agent or opened a single embassy. Where the hell is that money supposed to come from? How do you close a gap that big? You’d need brutal spending cuts, a new sales tax, higher income taxes, higher corporate taxes, and you’d better pray oil stays above $80 a barrel. Even then you’re white-knuckling it. The real kicker is the oil revenue swings like crazy. Your new government costs sure as hell don’t. You can’t call up the military or the pension guys and say “Hey, prices are down this month, take some time off.” The bills keep coming whether WTI cooperates or not. And now there’s no Bank of Canada to bail you out when shit gets sideways. You’re on your own. Good luck with that. This isn’t about politics or which team you’re on. It’s just arithmetic. You want to be pissed at Ottawa? Fine, there’s plenty of reasons to be fucking pissed. But don’t confuse being pissed off with actually having a plan. Right now the separation crowd is long on anger and real short on math that adds up.

@JasonGregor @boarderman8 Are these claims correct? Little more than just +/-

@boarderman8 what about how Bouchard didn't lead his team in scoring by 34 points like Karlsson. And Karlsson had 101 points. I don't put much stock in +/-. Looking at 5x5 GF-GA is much better to look at.

Not downplaying Bouchard's season. It was very good, but when Erik Karlsson won the Norris with 101 points, it wasn't just points. With him on the ice San Jose was even 5x5. Without him they were -52 (72-124). And he had 34 more points than closest teammate.

@m4xim1l1an @MatNuclear You mean before they withdrew in 2005?

@MatNuclear @MatNuclear This is embarrassing. The occupation is confirmed in UNSC 242, accepted by Israel, and reaffirmed by the ICJ in 2004 as a matter of customary international law. Which part is the Palestinian lie?

The more I research the Israel-Palestine conflict, the more I learn that the Palestinians lied about practically everything.

Removing fees only helps developers? You think the levels of government applying the fees are above reproach? Unlike government, builders have to deal with the market, if cost drop, someone will drop prices. Many foods have dropped since covid, some have risen. Just like any products.

@dman0067 @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre You think that doesn't just enrich builders and developers, ie the people that donate to the CPC? Come on dude lol. You think removing building taxes will compel developers to lower their prices? Remember how prices on literally everything didn't drop back down post-COVID?

@Kikiwips @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre What criteria would they use?

@dman0067 @BennySellick @PierrePoilievre How do you know that?
