I won’t repeat the racist comment.
What I will repeat is encouragement for young people to call out hatred and move beyond negativity.
Unity is stronger than division.
We are One Manitoba, One Canada, and one human race.
Unrealized gains tax for Gen-Z:
You buy a Pokémon card for $50.
Someone offers you $500 for it. You say no. You love that card. You're keeping it.
The government says: "Cool, but that card is worth $500 now. You owe us $100 in taxes."
You: "…I didn't sell it."
Government: "Don't care. Pay up."
You don't have $100 lying around. So you're forced to sell the card you love just to pay a tax on money you never received.
Next month? That card drops back to $50.
Your card is gone. Your money is gone. And the government shrugs.
That's a wealth tax on unrealized gains. They don't pay you back the tax...
Now picture this.
Your mom calls you crying. She has to sell the house she raised you in. Not because she can't afford it. She's lived there 30 years. It's paid off.
But some website says it's worth more now and the government says she owes $15,000 she doesn't have.
So she sells your childhood home. The kitchen where she made you breakfast. The doorframe where she marked your height every birthday.
Gone.
To pay a tax on money that was never real.
Now picture the opposite.
Your dad put everything into his small business. For 20 years he built it from nothing. One year the business is "valued" at $2 million on paper. He owes a massive tax bill. He empties his savings. Sells his truck. Borrows money. Pays it.
Next year the market crashes. His business is worth $200,000.
He lost everything to pay a tax on a number that doesn't exist anymore.
Does the government give him his money back?
No.
Does the government give him his truck back?
No.
Does the government care?
No.
They sold this idea as "taxing billionaires." But billionaires have armies of lawyers, offshore accounts, and trusts. They'll be fine.
You know who won't be fine? Your mom. Your dad. Your neighbor with a small business. The farmer down the road who's had the same land for four generations and now has to sell it because dirt got expensive.
You're not taxing wealth. You're taxing people for owning things.
It's like getting a parking ticket for a car you might drive somewhere someday.
They want you to own nothing and be happy. To fund the fraud, waste and abuse of the welfare state they created.
There is enough money. More tax isn't needed. It's all a lie. But you've been gaslit into believing this is a rich vs poor debate.
I hope you understand what's at stake.
I want to thank everyone for all the support we’re receiving. There really is an incredible amount of it.
For me, the sacrifice of the people depicted on the helmet means more than any medal ever could - because they gave the most precious thing they had.
And simple respect toward them is exactly what I want to give.
@knuf1985 Portland Laundromat and convenience store has all new washers and dryers $2.50 a load and front end loaders for $5 and one super washer for $10 for comforters etc.
Tomorrow is National Barack Obama Appreciation Day. Trump hates no one more than President Obama, so let's fill social media with our love for him!
RETWEET to spread the word!
Poilievre is the reason Canada is divided. He’s brought US maga to Canada which is fuelled by hate and division. It’s all about power for PP and he doesn’t care how he achieves it. He is selfish and self centred , he feels entitled, just look at his refusal to leave stornoway.
@ProjectPearson@CarlaMeckelborg Pierre just lost his job and refused to move out of government housing but he wants to make homelessness a crime? He literally had NO plan in place for a loss. He's scrambling to get his MP job back. And he thinks he's fit to be PM? Absolutely crazy! He's unemployed and squatting
On #RedDressDay, we honour the lives of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit People and remain committed to fighting for justice and the full implementation of the TRC’s Calls to Action and the MMIWG Inquiry’s Calls for Justice.
The fact Pierre Poilievre addressed & thanked Damien Kurek for giving up his seat so he could run again but not congratulating Bruce Fanjoy & thanking the residents of Carleton is EVERYTHING you need to know about him.
He's a fucking selfish, entitled grifting twat.
