It is genuinely disgusting how all of this is happening and how there is little alternative (Except maybe the NDP under new leadership, but it'll take a miracle for them to be able to get someone as PM). I voted for Carney because I was terrified of PP. I didn't know much about Carney other than he was in business and banking before. I either should have just voted NDP symbolically or not voted at all.
Pierre would have been better than this I'd say, Pierre wanted to diversify trade from the US by building horizontal pipelines for years. Now the people that made us monogamous are trying to fix the things they did.
When 1/3 of your tax revenue and all those equalization payments disappear you have a much smaller government than we have. So if we want universal healthcare and government assistance we need to diversify, it cannot exist without funding.
Pierre is a Trump ass kisser and would have done all of this stuff and far worse stuff.
Harper had a reasonable immigration level, and wanted to diversify globally. So I'm just using that as an estimation, Id be curious what makes you think he's lying when his predecessor did reasonably at those things.
Harper isn't Pierre. Also he wasn't running again last time. Harper had his own set of problems, and I won't get into them.
With Harper we had a good standard of living. Rents fell relative to income, food bank usage wasn't as extreme as it is now despite being in a recession. Our dollar was doing well.
What measure were we worse in, some climate change metric that doesn't matter globally? Indigenous are somehow worse off despite tens of billions in new debt going to them.
I prefer my human rights.
