People are astoundingly stupid. My comments about the departure tax is not that I should be treated differently from anyone else. I am making a point about the extent to which taxes are confiscatory. As I have previously explained, there was a time when ZERO cents of income tax were levied in Canada and the US. Then bit by bit, that "temporary" measure, to be applied to only a few, and at a very low percentage rate of your income, becomes a mammoth monster that takes more than 50% of your earnings. It can occur because there are no repercussions if governments do not balance their budgets (other than voting them out). Hence, what starts off as a small temporary tax on a few becomes an existential theft that is orders of magnitude larger than the so-called illegal extortion tax of the Mafia. It can exist only because the great majority of people BENEFIT from this form of parasitic taxation. But someone has to pay for everyone else, and when you are that someone, you are not necessarily pleased to be funding the ultimate Ponzi scheme. I'm making a moral, philosophical, and ethical argument. It's not just about me.
@MarkJCarney Yet our economy is shrinking. We're losing thousands of jobs every month. Youth unemployment is sky high. Cost of living is enormous. You can cut taxes and you should cut taxes but you won't cut taxes. But you'll keep spending and lie about your promise to cut the deficit
Canada is building big — new ports, mines, and power plants that will transform our economy for all.
With the Canada Strong Fund, all Canadians can share in the returns of those nation-building projects.
🇺🇸 US news just said what Canadian media won't: Mark Carney is a Davos elite, not a savior. 🕵️♂️
The Liberals turned a once-great country into a heartbreaking disaster.
We have the worst projected growth in the OECD and record-breaking food bank usage. 🇨🇦
Canada doesn't need another globalist insider. We need a REBOOT.
The "insiders" are the ones who broke it. 🤦🏻♂️

Supposedly Carney made Miss Piggy delete this but unfortunately for him this clip will live forever.
Repost and quote and share and make this motherfucker go viral 🤣🤣🤣☠️
"With skyrocketing energy costs, can Ottawa do something? Absolutely. It could pause the industrial carbon tax—or cancel the hike scheduled for April 1. That increase would only amplify the impact of higher fuel costs across the entire food supply chain."
The regime in Tehran is the principal source of terror in the Middle East and around the world. It tried to build nuclear weapons to annihilate our allies. It massacred tens of thousands of its own people. It orchestrated the attacks of October 7, 2023, murdered Canadian passengers on Flight PS752, sought to kill prominent Canadian leaders, and ruthlessly targets Canadians of Jewish and Iranian descent. It has shown no good faith in negotiations to change course.
That is why Conservatives support the courageous people of Iran in toppling this terror regime and reclaiming their destiny after 47 years of the regime's occupation. Conservatives support a democratic, free and permanently-denuclearized Iran that lives in peace and security with its neighbours. And Conservatives support the United States, Israel, and our allies across the Gulf to defend their sovereignty and dismantle the clerical military dictatorship of Iran.
BREAKING: New Statistics Canada jobs report shows 52,000 private-sector jobs lost in January — 28,000 in manufacturing alone.
Job-killing Liberal taxes and anti-development laws are putting people out of work.
We must quickly green-light big projects, get our resources to market, and cut taxes on reinvestment in Canada so our country can be strong, sovereign, and united — and so our workers can earn the paycheques that will give them an affordable life.
This here is shrinkflation in Canada. Opened up my container of yogurt, and it's 10% empty. Thanks, @MarkJCarney, for keeping your cheaper grocery promises
