Nothing Illustrates How Young Canadians Have Been Abused By Unaffordable Real Estate As Well As This Chart
An affordable home to buy has always been defined as 3X to 4X average family income
At some points 35 years ago it was 2.5X
This is a National disgrace
"Men can get pregnant"
"The border is secure"
"If you're vaccinated, you won't get COVID"
"We left no Americans behind in Afghanistan"
"Biden is sharp as ever"
....shall I keep going?
While Carney says he will protect Canada's steel industry from Trump's tariffs which will drive up costs and lead to lost jobs, he's defending driving up Canadian steel prices by increasing the industrial carbon tax, which will increase costs and result in lost jobs.
Ridiculous.
Unions representing cops.
Unions representing people who build things.
Business leaders who finance things and make the economy work.
They all back Poilievre.
Who backs Carney?
China and retirees who don't work anymore and won't work in the future.
Your choice Canada.
So many Canadians think this way about Americans.
It’s worse than ever, but has always been this way.
Pure snobbery and ignorance. A delusional, hateful superiority complex, fed by media and all major political parties.
It wasn't Donald Trump that gave Canada rising unemployment, a sputtering economy, a broken immigration system or a 69 cent dollar, it was the Liberals.
Why reward them with a fourth term?

Anita Anand: “Canada must stand united to protect our identity.”
I seem to recall that 9 years ago, Trudeau declared pompously (or vacuously) that Canada had no core identity.
So my question is, when did we acquire an identity, one that now needs to be protected?
If it’s not illegal to throw $150M at a national broadcaster a few weeks before an election which the broadcaster is intensely covering, it darn well ought to be.
@IvisonJ Chrystia Freeland quoted a four year old kid during her run for LPC leadership.
Now Carney quotes a nine year old.
We are making progress!! Hopefully, we will reach a point where we listen to adults.
A travesty of justice when the state seeks to make an example out of two individuals who engaged in peaceful protest when dangerous criminals get routinely paroled in Canada.
It's disappointing to see the @CPC_HQ and particularly @PierrePoilievre who supported the truckers protest and gained a fillip from it are now completely silent.
When you say you want to make Canada the freest country in the world, it starts with speaking up against these injustices by calling them out.
Donald Trump didn’t add any new tariffs on Canada, we are CUSMA exempt, but still have steel and aluminum like every other country.
But Carney’s entire campaign is based on picking a fight with Trump on the tariff issue which is why he might look distressed here.
As expected, Carney is fueling the tariff war with 8 billion dollars in new tariffs the day after Trump left Canada off his tariff list.
Why?
Because Carney needs conflict with the US to win the election. It's essentially his entire election platform.
Hold On A Second...... This Was YOUR TAX
You, the Liberal Party defended it as absolutely neccessary for YEARS
But every Canadian hated it for all those years
But today the Liberals are the HEROES?
Mark Carney who believes the carbon tax should be high enough to punish Canadians, has temporarily lowered the carbon tax to improve his chances of winning an election.
These changes will not last. Carney plans to hide the carbon tax and shift it to industries which will trickle down to consumers.
The gas prices today show the damage and price gouging that Liberals have inflicted on Canadians with the carbon tax.
After years of being called climate change-deniers, Conservatives finally got Liberals to admit that their carbon tax was a revenue ploy that hurt Canadians.
Don’t fall for this temporary ploy. Remember that for years the Liberals punished you with this tax and only relented when they were going to be voted out.
Only Conservatives will axe the carbon tax on everything, forever.
Remember that time, almost a year ago, when Mark Holland had a complete meltdown in the House of Commons because Conservatives wanted to give Canadians a break for the summer and temporarily reduce the carbon tax on gasoline?
He blamed kids for destroying the future of the planet.
"Give up the future of the planet. Don't worry kids, about climate change. Don't worry about taking action on the planet. Let the planet burn".
What a complete asshole. And his fellow Liberal MPs applauded like the brain dead idiots they are.
Today, those same idiots and their supporters are applauding the removal of the carbon tax.
Folks, it was never about saving the planet.
Like every inhabitant of the ivory tower who isn’t facing (and won’t ever have to face) the MONUMENTAL problems caused by excessive immigration, Canada’s high priest of Punditocracy Mr. Coyne is ardently & condescendingly in favour of even more immigration.
Want to punish the Young & the Working Class? Easy. TRIPPLE population growth (via immigration) with nary a plan for housing, healthcare, infrastructure or anything else.
To reward any party or persons associated with this massive policy error is beyond me.
I’ve noticed that the left is moving away from labelling those who disagree with them as “racists” or “nazis” and has pivoted to “traitors” and “MAGA”. Sort of like the pivot from Trudeau to Carney: different but also exactly the same.
