The Reform Party was the worst thing to happen to Canadian conservative parties
The split led to 4 LPC terms in a row including 3 majorities. All for less than a decade of mostly fragile CPC minority govs. Followed by 4 losses in a row
Now Reform has made the CPC regional again
Criticizing Mark Carney misses the mark.
Canada’s "technical recession" is a literal rounding error (GDP fell by just $1M in a C$3.2T economy, a minuscule 0.00003% reduction), largely driven by a temporary surge in gold imports, while GDP per capita actually rose by 0.2%.
Navigating these intricate economic nuances requires the depth of an Oxford Economics PhD and proven central banking expertise, not oversimplified political rhetoric.
Had the Conservative Party been in power, their policy approach would have likely led Canada into a genuinely harsher economic reality.

Imagine living in one of the most highly educated countries on the world and showing how fucking stupid you are because you failed school...example below
Imagine taxing your citizens into poverty and then when life gets too hard throwing some bread crumbs and it actually makes people happy instead of angry.
This is the reality in Canada.
According to the Liberals, Canadians are:
>“technically” hungry
>“technically” unemployed
>“technically” using food banks
>“technically” experiencing crime
>“technically” in a recession
>“technically” being shut out of US trade talks
>“technically” not allowed to ask their own province a question
>“technically” not in a housing crisis
>“technically” not paying for Chinese baby formula exports
They insult our intelligence.
This is why I find Poilievre so tiresome - his only strategy is to attack on every issue simultaneously, even if it doesn't make sense.
Household debt-to-income has actually been pretty flat over the past decade, but he wasn't concerned about it rising drastically under Harper.
This is quite hilarious. All the complaints are off the record. All the MPs saying "everything's fine" are on the record.
Some Liberal MPs say Mark Carney is 'demanding' but not a yeller | National Post https://t.co/0b98bBHJpv
I live rurally and I drive by these types of stands almost daily in the summer
But let's ignore the dripping elitism of this detestable POS for one sec
Raise your hand if you know that she referenced a "third-world fruit stand" because it's brown people behind the counter
