Do you see the contradiction?

@Ekennes Depends on the dry cow program, if the dry cow program is off then we will have some below 22. If the dry cow program is on point very few are below 22

Yes issuing quota increases milk production, those who cannot fill the additional quota put it over the quota exchange where those who want to fill it can purchase it as well. If you want even greater production increases we need processing plants built. Perhaps Mr food processor could accurately report the true issues driving food costs in Canada instead of talking points that barely scratch the surface. We desperately need more milk, chicken, beef, grain and hog processing capacity in Canada. Canadas processing infrastructure is old outdated and need updating across all sectors. Want lower prices then get processing built closer to production and get rid of the red tape.

Always more to the story than what govt funded media will tell you.

Kevin O’Leary says Carney should call an election to get a “majority mandate.”

I agree on the election not on the man.
Carney’s afraid because he knows once “Orange Man Bad” stops working, the Liberal spell breaks.

Next vote = Conservative landslide.

@islandviewag @jgreig Rye will always get you a crop. Triticale has terrible winter survival. Gets snow mould easily.

Well done.

Worth noting that the US has a version of supply management with TRQ's as high as 375% to protect US sugar producers. Production caps too. Its not exactly the same but it matters. Do as I say, not as I do Mr. Trump? Has nothing to do with the fact that Wisconsin is a swing state.

Confidential Brief to Canadians: My analysis of Mark Carney’s fiscal framework

I spent Easter weekend reading and analyzing Mark Carney’s proposed fiscal framework in detail. I hold an MBA in economics and finance, and before diving into the numbers, I also consulted with a few trusted economists. Together, we went through the plan with a fine-tooth comb.

Here’s what I found:
👇🏻

📉 Deficit-to-GDP ratio
Under this plan, the deficit-to-GDP ratio would rise by 65% by the final year. That’s a significant and concerning increase.

💸 Debt-to-GDP ratio
Based on my calculations, the debt-to-GDP ratio would hover around 42% throughout the entire horizon of the framework (42.4% in 2028–2029), instead of falling to 39.5% as the platform claims.

📈 Federal debt
Even factoring in the proposed savings, this plan would add $83 billion to the federal debt.

🧾 Claimed new revenues and savings: $52B
But here’s the issue:
👉🏻 $20B is projected to come from new tariffs, which carry serious risks of trade retaliation and economic slowdown.
👉🏻 $28B comes from so-called “government efficiency” — frankly, this is wishful thinking. That portion is almost entirely undocumented.

⚠️ Unrealistic ambition
Generating $28B in savings over 4 years, including $13B in the final year alone, is extremely ambitious. And frankly, it’s hard to believe — especially coming from a government proposing dozens of new programs with no plan to scale back its footprint in provincial jurisdictions.

❌ Politically invisible measures
What struck me most was the sheer number of measures in this budget that no voter will see or understand during the campaign.
Carney is tying his government’s hands with technical, behind-the-scenes commitments that are politically irrelevant. A puzzling choice.

🧮 New spending: $130B
The platform outlines $130 billion in new measures over four years, which would increase the federal debt by $225 to $250 billion.

🌍 Net-zero by 2029–2039
A laudable goal, but the plan excludes infrastructure spending from the operating budget.
✅ These costs won’t show up in the deficit
❌ But they will add directly to the debt

Yes, this mirrors the model used in Quebec’s Plan québécois des infrastructures (PQI). In theory, it can work — but only with strict oversight of capital investments. Otherwise, the debt will balloon far beyond projections.

⚠️ A credibility risk for Canada
An additional $250B in debt, combined with a stagnant debt-to-GDP ratio, will inevitably raise red flags with credit rating agencies.
It risks eroding confidence in the long-term fiscal viability of the plan — and of the government that implements it.

🔮 Overly optimistic assumptions
The framework is built on economic assumptions that are frankly unrealistic, in a context of:
👉🏻 potential economic slowdown triggered by tariffs
👉🏻 and unplanned increases in spending if a recession hits

🎯 Conclusion
If this plan is implemented, credit agencies — and markets — may very well lose confidence. Not just in the fiscal framework, but in the government itself.

This is what the election will come down to… who can win over the “mild mannered”boomers who wonder why their kids can’t afford to get into housing market much less give them grandkids

[Viva Frei @thevivafrei]

This is the exact moment @MarkJCarney lost the election.

Watch. Share. And make sure that anybody stupid enough to still vote for the liberals is reminded of their stupidity.

Because if you vote for the liberals, you are an idiot.

[Brian Lilley @brianlilley]

During my interview with Pierre Poilievre, we spoke at length about housing and his plan to make it so that you, your kids or grandkids can actually afford a home once again.
