POILIEVRE: "Oil is high. It's about $100 a barrel. You know when it was last $100 a barrel? In 2014. And you know what the gas price was then? A buck thirty-eight. Forty-five cents cheaper. Even though the world oil price was exactly what it is today."

The rest of the world needs to understand that this Triangle of Insanity rules over the rest of us and is ruining itself and the rest of Canada.

Older generations say “we all struggled in our 20s.” No, you didn’t. You didn’t pay $3,100 rent and $10 eggs. You didn’t graduate with $60K debt and no job security. Gen Z isn’t dramatic. They’re drowning.

When you realize that your $25/hr job buys you less today than the $1.60 minimum wage in 1970.

You’re morons. I won’t be back.

The entire "hard work" or "rugged" ideology was perhaps the most charming trait of the old WASP class. Presidents like Reagan and Bush were always being photographed cutting brush or something. You don't see that with Obama, Trump, etc.

This guy is such a doofus larper, Brahmin Boston WASPs were absolutely not making their kids toil in subsistence peasant labor in order to teach their kids "the value of hard work," this kind of conception of third-world style manual labor as intrinsically ennobling is an entirely modern knowledge worker striver concept, because this class is extremely conscious of the very thin line that separates them from the lower classes and are riddled with anxiety about it and also that they themselves don't think they're doing Real Work. This is why VB here doesn't understand the comedy of Pee Pee Rug Dad, both are cargo culting what they think successful men do, not to mention that Pee Pee Rug Dad was doing a grindset-by-child-proxy performance for social media attention... there's nothing wrong with having your kids work, just don't be stupid and performative about it

Canada will be a case study. A prosperous nation that failed.

The Grey Flood is coming.. This unknown Quiet Liquidation accelerates into 2050. This is the wave of homes that will hit the market as Baby Boomers age, die, and pass property to the next generation. Boomers own a massive share of Canada’s housing stock: primary homes, cottages, second homes, and rental properties. But here is the problem. Many heirs do not want the properties. Many cannot afford to maintain them. Many live somewhere else. Many will simply sell. That turns inheritance into supply. And not a little supply. A slow-moving, demographic wave of supply 🌊 Canadian deaths followed a smooth exponential trend for roughly 170 years. That is normal. The Population grows, people age, and annual deaths rise. Deaths are now rising faster than the historical model would predict. That is the Baby Boom generation moving through the mortality curve. And it does not stop in 2025. It accelerates toward 2050. This is why Canadian real estate is not just facing an affordability problem. It is facing a demographic supply problem. The Grey Flood has begun.
