Time to throw my 2 cents out there on this thing too. Don't take my opinions personally - just callin' it like it is ... since '64. Also known as Old Fart
@uknowtheanswer They are all alike. They have all these ideas (which they think are 'brilliant' when in actuality they are counterproductive to their actual mission - another story for another time) but they are NOT willing to do one thing that inconveniences themselves yet they expect us to.
@uknowtheanswer @Chazx596 Do people NOT read or do they NOT check the context to which we are commenting? Are they lazy or just stunned? Now I know why I avoid this social media shit.
I am entitled to my opinion. I think many of you are backing the wrong team. Where do you think Canada would be without the USA? We should be seeking solutions & NOT creating a divide. Our leaders do NOT care about us & if you think they do, you have NOT been paying attention.
@NLNDP@JimDinn Of course. But that would mean 1) doing real leadership work and 2) getting a clue. Sadly, neither of these things are happening in this province, or this country.
Let me be clear - I'm responsible for the horrible state of the Canadian economy.
Not Trump. Not tariffs. Me.
I'll use the media to try and convince everyone that it's someone else's fault, but never forget that I've done nine years worth of economic damage to this country.
My speech yesterday convinced some Canadians to be angry at America, because "we're all in this together".
They forgot to be angry with me!
Hopefully they'll continue looking outwards, instead of realizing that I'm the reason this is all happening.
Whether people agree or disagree is up to them, but how can anyone fault a leader for looking out for his country and his people?! I know we are used to getting the shaft here in Canada, so maybe most just don't understand the premise.
@EricCartman9876 And how great is that quote - "I love the people of Canada, I disagree with the leadership of Canada." As a Canadian, I can also say with 100% certainty that I also disagree with the leadership of Canada.
@EricCartman9876 Instead of the Premier & PM trying to work with Trump and the US, they dig in their heels and essentially use us as pawns to fuel their narcissistic egos. Trump is looking out for his country & his people, maybe these two should try doing the same.
@uknowtheanswer@eddy_tortias He is not going to do anything that takes away a great excuse he can use for flying down to do some shopping on our dime. As transparent as Saran Wrap.
@uknowtheanswer Nailed it. Especially with the entire province only having a population the size of the city of Hamilton. And, NL'ers (and many Canadians) cannot afford to buy everything they need because Beavis and Butthead have wasted taxpayers' money, let alone buy the more expensive choice.
Auto insurance will increase to astronomical prices once these area stats catch up with the market. If small businesses/restaurants think NL'ers are unable to support them now due to a lack of disposable income, you just wait. These costs coupled with keeping NL Power in profits!
SJRFD responded to seven traffic incidents yesterday alone, including two on the TCH, three in the centre-city area of St. John's, one in Paradise, and this one in Mount Pearl. They've responded to 28 reported collisions/crashes in the past week alone. #nltraffic@NTVNewsNL
