My prediction, the future government will make a few changes, GDP will increase and they will pat themselves on the back… When you’re in last place any slight improvement will look impressive, however, the increased GDP won’t ever make up for this lost decade.

According to Grok, you could cover the cost of everyone’s flights from Toronto to Montreal for 180 to 300 years with the estimated price tag to build Alto high-speed rail. On Alto, you would also have to pay hundreds per ticket and there would be a taxpayer subsidy.

@MarkJCarney @DavidMcGuinty $8 billion! Any of that going towards trees and landscaping?

This is the biggest Canadian defence investment in Newfoundland and Labrador's history, and a critical part of our ambitious new plan to defend, build, and transform the North.

Nova Scotia burned Australian natural gas this winter despite having it under their feet. They could have also bought gas from Alberta. This is peak stupidity. saltwire.com/nova-scotia/im…

@TheChaosWeeber Don’t pretend, you didn’t like him before. This discussion has been ongoing for nearly 40 years and has cost Canadians hundreds of millions of dollars just in “feasibility research”.

I despise wha Pierre has done to the high speed rail debate in Canada. This shouldn’t be a partisan issue. It’s a project that will change Canada for the better. Majority of those opposed have never even used high speed rail before. Video from Shinkansen in February

🚨 WOW David Eby got caught. Red handed. He told Canadians there was "no proponent, no route, no project" to oppose. Meanwhile a leaked internal briefing note shows his government ordered ministers to secretly build the case to kill Alberta's Northern pipeline. A majority of Canadians support it. A majority of BC residents support it. Indigenous communities were offered 50% ownership. Eby is sabotaging a nation-building project behind closed doors while lying about it in public. This is who runs BC. westernstandard.news/bc/exclusive-b…

@ShaneWenzel @jer0319 Yes, but they wouldn’t need to hike anything if we had a government that stopped wasting taxpayer money… I miss the day when a $16 glass of OJ caused a raucous frenzy in the media and now nobody bats an eye at the PM’s $94k in-flight catering for one trip.

Canada is under pressure to hit a 5% NATO target. Is national defence worth a 2% GST hike? Don't forget to Like and Retweet to get more people in the conversation!

I don’t hate trains I hate government overspending. Mark my words, $90 billion is a drop in the hat to what this will actually cost. AtkinsRéalis (formerly known as SNC Lavalin… no scandals there) will end up getting some sweet contracts and I wouldn’t doubt Brookfield will magically be involved as well.

Why do Conservatives hate this so much? Anyone?

@CTVNews We don’t need a tax increase we need to cut government spending. We’d get the same result if we cut down to 251 MPs and the wasteful foreign spending has to stop.

Canada must increase taxes, cut spending to hit 5% NATO target: report ctvnews.ca/politics/artic…

I appeared on CTV yesterday to share my thoughts on the government firearm confiscation program. Have a look👇🏼.

@TorontoStar @dkreative1 Careful Toronto Star, you don’t want to loose out on your Liberal government handout…

Man accused in Hamilton killing was under deportation order — but never removed trib.al/ast3SzY

I know that it is April fools (we know this because the government pats itself on the back and gives themselves a pay raise... no joke, we are being played for fools), but this headline here is not that far fetched.

@stevenmackinnon Rich coming from your team… “nation-building investments”. Can’t wait for the day that the Enbridge pipeline bringing you energy is deemed unsafe by the Americans and is cut off. Should have considered a “nation-building investment”.

Pierre Poilievre, once again, is showing Canadians that he has no vision to create jobs and grow the economy.   For decades, Canadians have advocated for a modern, fast, inter-city rail network. Alto is a generational investment that will transform travel and connect communities. It will boost GDP by $35 billion annually, create over 51,000 well-paying jobs, and help Canadians work, study, and travel more efficiently.   Pierre Poilievre is turning his back on Canadians from Quebec City to Toronto and the communities in between. Investing in High-Speed Rail means building a more connected, competitive Canada, and proves Canada can get big things done.   The Conservatives, as usual, think small. Turning away from nation-building investments is the wrong choice, and one Canadians reject at a time when we need to build and grow.

@YukonStrong I'd be tempted to hand over something if—a very big "if"—a law was made that politicians were only paid if there was a surplus budget and (to take a page from Warren Buffett), if the annual deficit exceeds 2% of GDP, all MPs who voted for the budget are banned from reelection.

My new proposal to counter the Liberal gun grab

Hey liberal boomers! Hope you don’t land! 🇨🇦👇

@YourAnonCentral FAFO. It will be the quickest path to Alberta separation.

Canada needs to nationalize Alberta’s oil, problem solved.

@fugz202068671 @CTVNews I miss the days when the media was critical of a single glass of $16 orange juice. Now they are just left wing propaganda machines turning a blind eye to their preferred political party's misuse of taxpayer money.

@CTVNews Carney racked up $94,000 in flight catering in a single flight! x.com/mapleblooded/s…

Pierre Poilievre’s byelection cost taxpayers more than $2.3 million ctvnews.ca/politics/artic…

@CTVNews So $1.47 CAD per liter? Sounds like a pretty sweet deal... Now do Canada. What makes our's 30-40% more expensive???

Gas prices eclipse US$4 a gallon in the U.S., the highest since 2022 ctvnews.ca/business/artic…

@TheSundodger @SportsnetSpec @WeAreCanProud Exactly. The left are hypocritical.

@SportsnetSpec @WeAreCanProud You had no problem stirring up your base against Gretzky though.x.com/i/status/18949…

You're disrespecting Joni Mitchell, and you call yourself Canada Proud? Sit down, shut up, and show some respect, @WeAreCanProud

@CTVNews No!!! Elbozos up!!! We need to triple the carbon tax or we won’t save the planet… we also need to continue stifling our energy sector making it less inviting for development… the world doesn’t need any of the worlds 3rd largest reserve of oil, there’s just no business case.

Countries are temporarily slashing gas taxes. Should Canada do the same? ctvnews.ca/canada/article…

That is a sweet list of upgrades. I will definitely be looking into the heated wiper blade kit. I was going to start with the Ford ProCal tune and have been debating 74Weld portals for a lift with 37’s (but the 3” lift with those Fox shocks would be perfect for some 35’s). Please keep us up to date on your mods when they occur!

Love it bud, couldn't recommend it more, rock solid in even in -50. Only flaw is that the wipers sit below the hood, so unfortunately in heavy snow so they freeze down there unless you blow out the snow. I wound up ordering a heated wiper blade kit Stay tuned. I have ordered some upgrades -Diode dynamics Off-road LED lamps -dual catch can -fox 3.2 live valve race shocks (3" lift) -Fox billet UCA's -Cobb intercooler -process west induction tubing -SPD alpha cat high flow downpipes -Solo MFG double shear UCA mount -Twin 41mm Garret Turbochargers -rhodium spark plugs -Still haven't decided on intake or exhaust yet This setup is capable 700+ at the wheels if i want, and still be a reliable daily driver. All bolt on's and developed alongside ford performance. I'm gonna have the tuner cap it at 550 until i upgrade the transmission with sun coast diesel internals (after warranty expires)
