@smurph64 @redsnoopy69 Neat. Then why are we even bothering to pay taxes if debt doesn’t matter Healthcare is worth spending extra on. Infrastructure is. Defense is. If they don’t have to balance the books why are we paying taxes?

@Jenniferl554563 @OhSheri1 Conservatives lie. Security doesn’t come at the end of a pipeline. Extraction of finite resources is not a sustainable practice therefore it does not establish a secure energy system. Want to know what is? Geothermal, tidal, wind, solar. Conservatives want to back that?

Brian Mulroney scuttled our National Energy Program and deregulated it to create our current 70% foreign owned energy industry. Stephen Harper deregulated our oil and gas industry further and approved the sale of Nexen Enegy based in Calgary to the Chinese Government. You lie.

Energy is the lifeblood of an economy. Energy powers security. Energy defeats poverty. Let us liberate this energy and make our country the most autonomous, abundant, and affordable the world has ever seen: conservative.ca/cpc/more-canad…

The next time a libertarian say they want to vote conservative show them this. The #FreedomConvoy was a hoax. A sales pitch. Propaganda.

Chaos and yelling as government in Canada makes themselves EXEMPT form Freedom of Information Act requests An omnibus budget bill secretly included a statute exempting themselves from FOIA requests Records on cabinet ministers, parliamentary assistants, and their offices inducing staff are now largely exempt from FOI requests Holy sh*t

Fanning about GDP is akin to fanning about total runs scored in baseball.. pointless. Do you know what season had the most runs scored? It was when players were cheating using steroids. GDP growth is a delusion.

@Tori_TLCR @SherpaJonny @danielfoch We can actually easily build using housing credits without having to crash the market. Private build the houses Canada buys them. Their profit is capped over a 30 year 5% amortized once a year. So 100k investment gets them a 95k profit over the 30 years. No risk. No ongoing costs

@danielfoch I don't. I've lived in the same fixer-upper that still needs fixing since 2004. I want the housing market to completely crash. I want total divestment of pension plans away from the housing market. Housing should not be an investment vehicle to make profit. Get jobs.

Most people say they want affordable housing. What they usually mean is: “I want my kids to be able to buy a house, but I also want my house to go up 8% a year forever, and I definitely do not want a fourplex near me.” That is the Canadian housing crisis in one sentence.

@smurph64 @redsnoopy69 All debt is bad. We need the country to be profitable if people want “free” shit. Going into debt every year is a horrible fucking mistake. But adding $1 to the debt is better than $1 billion.

How is it that people can rail simultaneously about paying too much in taxes and having a giant deficit in the same sentence and not realize the math of what they are saying? Is our education system that horrible?

@AnneChovy2 @mikucorp I didn’t know iceberg lettuce was green (dark green) until I grew it myself. And my tomatoes, they didn’t taste like sawdust. Speaking of which, did you hear about the tomato industry in the US losing billions because of Trump’s tariffs. Yep we decided to grow our own instead.

Almost everything wrong with our country can be drawn back directly to a Republican President. Recessions, inflation, home ownership declines, insurance premiums, high interest rates, broken banking systems, low GDP growth, declining employment… Literally almost everything.

MAID, without proper societal supports and safety nets, is a eugenics program. If you can’t afford to live, it’s coercion, not choice.
Tyler Black, MD@tylerblack32

If you're going to discredit Canada for it's "MAiD" (Medical Assistance in Dying, or euthanasia) laws, at least know your facts. I'm a proud Canadian, and MAiD represents our Canadian tradition of being kind, caring, and respecting people's autonomy with careful safeguards.

@ShaziGoalie @Tori_TLCR That number is bogus. It only counts for people looking for work for 4 weeks as a full time job. After that time, if you are still unemployed you are culled from the list as not being unemployed. Underemployed and unemployed in Canada for those under the age of 30 is probably 40%

🇨🇦 youth job market is breaking. A 20-year-old with 6 years of restaurant experience says nowhere would hire her. Another young worker says she works full-time and can barely afford rent. Meanwhile youth unemployment (15–24) has climbed to 14%. Study hard. Get experience. Work hard. And still end up locked out. This is how a generation starts losing faith in the system.
