Happy to be part of the 1%

To Mark Carney & Those Applauding Him: I am a Canadian paying for a country that doesn’t include me. I live in the part of the country your map forgets. About 2,600 kilometres from the nearest stop on your proposed $90 billion train. I am an overtaxed, under-served Canadian. I heat my home with rising costs. I fill my vehicle at almost $2 a litre, depending on the day and my luck. I watch a country with 163 billion barrels of oil behave like it’s on a meagre allowance. And you want me to pay for a train I will never use. How thoughtful. I am a hard-working, falling-behind Canadian funding infrastructure I will never touch. It runs roughly 800 to 900 kilometres, depending on how creatively it detours around reality, from Toronto to Quebec City. Seven stops. All neatly contained within Ontario and Quebec. Top speed, 300 km/h. National reach? Let’s just call it selective. I am a Canadian treated like a revenue stream, invited only by invoice. Roughly $90 billion. About $8,000 per household. For a ticket I will never hold. From where I sit in Saskatchewan, your high-speed rail corridor might as well be interstellar travel. Two thousand plus kilometres away circling the station, and still billing me. I am a Canadian bereft of a stop on this train. Close enough to fund it. Far enough to never use it. I am an overextended, nickel-and-dimed Canadian. I am fixing my own road access. Paying more for groceries. Driving farther for basic services. And now funding new infrastructure for people who already have airports, highways, and existing rail. At this point, I would settle for a train that delivers affordable groceries. No need for 300 km/h. Just cost-saving reliability. I am a Canadian squeezed by government-made inflation, where every errand costs more than it did last week and every explanation from you sounds rehearsed. I am a Canadian quietly recalculating the future, trying not to downgrade my retirement to a leaky camper on wheels, while the country accumulates debt it cannot repay and prints money to pretend it can. I am a rural Canadian watching how this works. Not on my land. Not this time. But close enough to understand the mechanism. Because an 800 plus kilometre corridor does not meander politely. It cuts. Straight. Fast. With purpose. Through farmland. Through properties. Through communities. I am a watchful Canadian taking note of precedent. Survey stakes. Expropriation powers. “Public interest” to be explained after. It is not my yard today. But it is someone’s. And tomorrow, it will be called "necessary" for something larger. Something urgent. Something climate-related. Something that cannot wait. I am a wary Canadian noticing how easily "necessity" is declared to match your agenda. And how quickly my rights become flexible once it is declared. I am an observant Canadian with a long memory for names. And somehow, the same SNC-Lavalin lineage Canadians were told to forget is back, rebranded as AtkinsRéalis, positioning itself for one of the largest public contracts in Canadian history. A remarkable comeback. Truly. No apology tour. Just a new logo and a larger taxpayer subsidized opportunity. Seems history doesn’t repeat. It follows a predictable pattern. I am an unimpressed Canadian watching familiar #Lavscam players return under reimagined branding. The script is the same. Only the cover has changed. I am an exasperated Canadian you included in your sales pitch. I am told it will create 50,000 jobs. I am told it will add $35 billion to GDP. And I am sure it will. In the corridor. Where the stations are. Where the density is. Where the benefit is. I am a shunned Canadian excluded from the outcome. Included in all the arithmetic. Excluded from all the access. I am a cynical Canadian being told this is nation-building. Though the nation appears to exist along a very specific set of coordinates. I am the depleted Canadian who: Reads grocery receipts like an audit. Choreographs fuel stops around paydays not plans. Measures distance in cost, not kilometres. I am an overburdened, last-in-line Canadian. Essential when it is time to pay. Optional when it is time to benefit. I am an impoverished Canadian whose citizenship now resembles a pre-authorized debit agreement. The withdrawals are national. The benefits are regional. I am an exhausted, overlooked Canadian. You’re not building this for me or my family. You're just sending me the bill. Signed, Your most reluctantly reliable revenue stream, Melanie in Saskatchewan

@KirkLubimov No. It has to get much worse. Then they'll blame the Conservatives.

Toronto neighbourhood of Rosedale has so much crime and break ins that they are hiring private security guards to patrol the streets. They voted 64% Liberal last election for Chrystia Freeland. There is a by-election there now. You think they learned their lesson?

🚨THE LIBERAL GOVERNMENT IS A DYSTOPIAN NIGHTMARE UNFOLDING IN REAL TIME🚨 PRIORITIES: Bill C2 - Surveillance state Bill C8 - Delete you from the Internet Bill C9 - Jail you for a meme Bill C21 - Gun confiscation BILL C6, C8 - Foreign spending & aid NOT PRIORITIES: NOT - Crime NOT - Immigration NOT - Affordability and cost of living. NOT - Protecting Canada’s economic interests NOT - Responsible & timely budget focused on austerity DO YOU HONESTLY BELIEVE THEY CARE ABOUT YOU - OR ARE THEY SCARED OF YOU?

🚨Remember when this happened??🚨 And then everyone just forgot & then it was ok? ~Anita Anand's Husband Beat 18 Contractors For HUGE Covid Cash ~ It was just a total coincidence, right @AnitaAnandMP? Criminal actions have consequences - especially for traitors.

@WSOnlineNews Canada, every day showing the world what a joke we've become under the Liberals.

Canadian navy base flies trans flag stating 'hateful online conduct' may be subject to 'criminal justice process'. Link to story in comments.

@PrairieVeteran Countless scandals with no accountability or repercussions has emboldened them. We are governed by criminals wearing nice clothes.

Once again..............sorry AFTER they get caught.🤭😆 When will it end?

Canadian taxpayers gave almost $20 million to a climate institute in Korea to create “Nature-based Solutions for Livelihoods in Mangrove Landscapes” in Indonesia.

Just a Quick Reminder!

There’s no point in warning them they don’t care lol, you’ll just get told to leave Canada because according to the elbow lickers Canada isn’t even close to communism 😬

Byelection candidate @DolyBegum in social media posts prior to @liberal_party nomination described Liberals as untrustworthy, conniving and “the surest path to greater evil.” Begum is former deputy leader of @OntarioNDP. blacklocks.ca/candidate-agre… #cdnpoli #onpoli @NDP

@denisebatters We're governed by thieves and criminals.

🚨 Carney’s Liberal Finance Minister Champagne put this “high-speed rail initiative” Alto into his own Budget Implementation Act! (This Bill C-15 only passed #SenCA 2 weeks ago.) In making this sneaky move, Champagne ensured this $90 Billion boondoggle-to-be and his “personal connection” to it would receive less scrutiny and faster passage!

There are no conflicts of interest between the Finance Minister, his wife that works for Alto, or the newly named company, AtkinsRealis, formerly SNC-Lavalin. Trust us, bro. 😉

This is complete bullshit. The CPC has burned through 3 leaders in the last 10 years. It wouldn’t matter who leads the party, the legacy media will find a way to destroy him. Liberal subsidies have destroyed fair and balanced coverage of the govt., and turned them into lapdogs.

@TrollingCanuck It was the equivalent of a worldwide Special Olympics.

This was a special time 😂

OK, I split my time between Alberta and the EU and I follow politics in both regions. I have a clear view of what it is like to live in the EU. Endless idiotic detailed rules including attempts to ban olive oil bottles on restaurant tables. Environmental laws which are stealing farms from people whose family has owned them for 300+ years A brutally expensive, ineffective Brussels which does nothing more than distribute cash it did not earn from "have" countries to give it "have not" countries, all the while skimming a big chunk for bureaucracy Power is split across: European Commission (unelected technocrats) European Parliament (elected, but limited powers) European Council (heads of government bargaining behind closed doors) ... none of which is 'for the people" A straitjacketed currency which is unable to allow adjustment for the vastly different economies and economic cycles within the EU In short: - Net contributors subsidize weaker economies - The euro forces shared risk without shared discipline - Governance is complex, indirect, and not accountable - Regulation levels downward rather than upward - The EU keeps expanding without democratic mandate You fools want to join the EU? Canada would be a "have" nation so it will subsidize the rest The regulatory change would be a tsunami of changes, most of which will not fit in North America. You will lose control of your development and export policy If you think Ottawa is "distant", the EU may as well be on the moon. No one in the EU will care a fiddlers fart about "Canada". They have honed their political fangs over centuries and our useless leaders would be torn into shreds within hours. Anyone who thinks joining the EU is a good idea needs to be put in an institution and heavily medicated for their own safety.

@mferreriptbokaw It’s too late. His wife begins working do Alto in August 2025. In the early winter in 2025 he voted in the House for the estimates to send his wife’s company $507 million this year alone. He has already broken the conflict of interest and ethics rules.

These were the LAST numbers released by Canada’s Vaccine Injury Support Program before they sealed the records for 15 years 3,018 admissible claims 1,433 already assessed Only 252 approved And then transparency ends From this point forward the public is no longer allowed to see what is happening behind the scenes If everything is safe and effective why hide the data Canadians deserve to know the real numbers Copy repost and demand accountability

#JeMeSouviens They beat down their own people and thought that would be the end of it. It wasn’t. 24,000 Canadians showed up in two weeks. 3.9 million impressions. 38,000 reposts. You cannot silence a country that remembers. Canadians are strongest when they stand together — and right now, they’re standing. Terrebonne votes April 13. One seat. Make it count. #StandOnGuard 🇨🇦 #StandOnGuardCanada

🚨 This should NEVER be allowed to happen in Canada 🇨🇦 Liberals are begging the Supreme Court to gut the notwithstanding clause (Section 33) and rewrite Canada’s Constitution WITHOUT a single vote from the people or proper amending formula. I warned you the Carney Liberals would be the most authoritarian in Canadian history. They’re trying to amend the Constitution by judicial fiat exactly what the premiers blocked Pierre Trudeau from doing in 1982. This is a brazen power grab by activist courts and Ottawa Liberals to strip elected governments and provinces of their democratic override. Section 33 exists to protect democracy from unelected judges. Fire any judge who tries to limit it! Defend the Constitution as written or watch Canada become a full judicial dictatorship. #Section33 #SaveDemocracy

@IfindRetards We're trying our best to catch the UK

Which is more retarded?
