📺 WATCH: Liberal Safety Minister @Gary_SRP gets called out by MP @ArpanKhanna after trying to claim that violent crime in Canada is going down.
"What planet does this minister live on?"
"Last year, we had one violent crime every 50 secs in our country." 🤯
I want to speak with you directly about why I’ve called an election for October 24th.
Trump is attacking our jobs, raising our costs and threatening our sovereignty. The conservatives want to back down. Not me.
Join me in standing up for Canada and building B.C. strong.
Mark Carney: "Canada supplies 40% of the world's potash. It is an incredible strength of our economy. In demand, absolutely around the world, because guess what? Canada is a reliable, cost-competitive supplier."
@TrendPolCa@Dave_Eby He is calling an election while he has a majority because there’s a bunch of people in Canada that have this hate towards Trump. That’s now going to cost them their homes because this guy’s gonna give them away 😂
David Eby pretends his snap election is not trying to exploit the chaos created by BC Liberals backstabbing Conservative members, over Kerry-Lynne Findlay.
Instead Eby insists British Columbians deserve better representation than a bunch of MLAs who change parties when it suits their personal political goals.
The BC Liberals really dug a hole, I don't think they can climb out of.
Looks like @One_BCHQ is likely to pick up several seats & possibly tens of thousands of new members.
“The short answer is yes."
PM @MarkJCarney is confronted by a reporter on whether or not Carney was voted in to join the EU as an associate member, privatize airports, and make changes to the labour code.
StatCan says inflation is “steady” at 3%. Drivers aren’t buying it. Gasoline was up 22.8% year over year in August. Take gas out and the CPI is only 2.4%. Commuters are carrying the average so Ottawa can sound calm.
Pointing at the Middle East and calling pressures “contained” doesn’t fill a tank. Federal fuel taxes and climate levies still sit on top of a global shock. Households get the receipt, not the talking points.
Cut federal fuel taxes while pump prices are this elevated. Stop selling 3% as affordability when getting to work costs nearly a quarter more than last year.
@Dave_Eby People of British Columbia, please recognize that Donald Trump’s difficulties are relatively recent. DAVID has served as premier for many years; his incompetence has placed you in your current position.
Canada still needs between 417,000 and 469,000 housing starts a year to get back to pre-pandemic affordability. Toronto alone needs starts up at least 50% over the next decade. CMHC says ownership construction is exceptionally weak while rental dominates.
Softer demand should be the moment we catch up. Instead construction is slowing faster than demand. Underbuild now and the next rush leaves us further short. Speeches about affordability do not pour concrete.
