@maxfawcett You forgot to mention that Canada's population grew 16% over that time period, far more than other countries, (and yes that's a Trudeau issue with immigration) which heavily skews GDP growth per capita as opposed to gross GDP growth.
@acoyne How about the woke anti-Semitic? Since when can you just go attaching "woke" to whatever you want to dislike? Woke racistsโฆ is that a thing? Woke serial killers? Okay, Dexter, I guess you got me there even if he is fictional.
I believe it's time for democratic politicians of all stripes to abandon this platform given its owners apparent desire to relentlessly and undiplomatically interfere with political systems around the world. #Politics#democracy#Canada#UK
@acoyne Chretien found a way to work with and respect Paul Martin. It enabled him to unify two dispirit views of what the party should be (at that time). Trudeau has now effectively lost the confidence of his most significant faction that's not his own. The writing is on the wall.
@RadioFreeTom You used "rule of law" without a hint of irony. Under the GOP the law has no rules, at least none lawmakers of years gone by would recognize. There was nothing Biden could do in the name of anything, but he could save his son from paying for the perceived sins of the father.
@Timodc Hunter had his deal with the DoJ and Republicans trashed it because they wanted to punish him for his surname, not his crimes. It would be unconscionable for a father to watch that happen and do nothing. If his day in court had any chance of being fair it'd be different.
@RadioFreeTom Nearly 50% chose emotions over what's good for the country. Those rising to power on the backs of that are looking to punish the son for the sins of the father. No justice, just revenge & destruction. It would be unconscionable to watch that happen when it could be stopped.
@pvralien@PierrePoilievre@PmocanadaR@TorontoStar Poilievre gets cozy with Trump and his base is thrilled, but Canadians in general are horrified. He'd have to be an extraordinary moron to commit career suicide in such a foolish way. Soโฆ it'll probably happen.
What #Trump policies will hurt his #MAGA loyalists the most? Will it be #tariffs driving up #inflation? #Deportations, leaving crops to rot and small businesses to close? #Taxcuts serving the rich while doing little for those struggling to get by? Or any myriad of other policies?
@acoyne Why stop at insane? Monumentally ignorant, scandalously stupid, historically short sightedโฆ so many descriptors to choose from, all of them accurate.
Two paths. One works to improve an admittedly imperfect system, though better than anything else historically. The other burns it all down, leaving a cadre of self-centered, hate fuelled, elite authoritarians in charge. Anger is going to leave everyone appreciating what once was.
Nearly half of U.S. #voters must somehow believe they will benefit from #antidemocratic policies which, inevitably, will be structured to win support from the already rich and powerful. If you aren't already worth at least $100 million, you'll just be a tool for those who are.
@stphnmaher Apologies, spot on about the racismโฆ way off the mark regarding it not being representative of MAGA. I knew I'd pay for coming close to appreciating words from MTG. But honest to G-d, did Loomer seriously make that Arby's comment alongside her defense of free speech? Yuck!
@stphnmaher But did you see this unhinged reply by unhinged Loomer to the unhinged MTG's unhinโฆ actually spot on criticism of Loomer's initial racist rant?

Hey @mtgreenee
Remember when you destroyed your family so you could have sex with a Zangief cosplayer?
Tell me again how you and the Arbyโs in your pants are representatives of the GOP?
You couldnโt even run your own family.
Donโt tell me how to run my FREE SPEECH!
