@Tablesalt13 Based on that chart we invest the same dollar amount, slightly more. Weโre a country of 40 million and they are 350million. If Canadian pension plans were banned from investing in America, market would lose 5-10% immediately. Canadians would lose because USA economy is better
QUESTION: Was @MichaelMaCPC bribed?
Compromised?
Threatened?
Listen to his speech from June 18th, 2025, where he denounces Carney's border bill, and his "crusade against gun owners."
What do YOU think is REALLY going on? ๐
Conservative MP Michael Ma @MichaelMaCPC shocked the political landscape by crossing the floor to join the Liberal Party on December 11, 2025, just eight months after voters in Markham Unionville elected him on a promise to battle Liberal spending that was crushing affordability for families. This rookie parliamentarian, who flipped the Greater Toronto Area riding from Liberal hands in a razor thin victory, handed Prime Minister Mark Carney's minority government its 171st seat, leaving it a single defection away from an unelected majority that could ram through any agenda without facing the ballot box again. Ma's move reeks of raw opportunism, betraying the diverse working class constituents who backed him to dismantle the exact economic policies he now endorses, all while the Conservatives reel from a second such stab in mere weeks following Chris d Entremont's similar switch.
The hypocrisy cuts deepest when you rewind to Ma's blistering House of Commons speech merely days earlier, where he tore into the Liberals as team feudalism for their deficit binge that inflated asset prices and forced over two million Canadians, including 700,000 children, to rely on food banks each month. He raged against their immigration mismanagement and economic blunders that left paycheques too thin for basics like food and rent, calling it an insult to hardworking folks in his own riding. Yet here he stands, parroting Liberal spin about unity and practical action to make life affordable, as if his prior fury was just empty theater for the cameras. Poilievre nailed the gut punch in his scathing rebuke, declaring Ma was sent to Ottawa to fight inflationary spending driving up food prices and living costs, only to flip and prop up the very machine he vowed to smash, letting down the voters who trusted him most.
Adding insult to injury, Ma crashed the Conservative caucus Christmas party on December 10, 2025, the night before his betrayal, grinning for photos with Poilievre and his wife while dancing like a loyal foot soldier, even stiffing organizers on his ticket fee with a vague promise to pay up later. By midday the next day, he was spilling the secret to the Speaker and opposition leader, then hightailing it to the Liberal holiday bash that evening, where Carney hoisted his arm onstage like a trophy and joked about swapping opposition kranks for family cheer. This double dipping on festive facades exposes Ma as a two faced chameleon, schmoozing one side for optics while plotting his power grab with the other, all without a whisper of warning to his blindsided caucus.
Online fury erupted like wildfire across X and Reddit, with users branding Ma a snake, traitor, and peak political fraud for stealing votes without consequence in a system that lets defectors cling to seats earned under false colors. Demands for mandatory byelections flooded feeds, as constituents seethed over the undemocratic sleight of hand that could lock in Liberal dominance through backroom poaching rather than public will. Whispers of foreign meddling swirled in his Chinese Canadian heavy riding, where Ma's Hong Kong roots and a prior Liberal scandal involving Beijing bounties fueled unproven but toxic suspicions of coercion, turning betrayal into a national security scar. Firearms advocates roasted him for bolstering the gun ban push he once opposed, while broader cries of rebellion echoed from those seeing Canada slide into Chinada under unelected rule.
Ma's floor crossing is no mere party hop, it is a democratic dagger that shreds voter trust and rewards deceit over duty, leaving Markham Unionville's families to foot the bill for policies their ballots rejected. This calculated knife twist, timed for maximum holiday havoc, proves power trumps principle every time for turncoats like him, eroding the foundations of fair governance one stolen seat at a time. Canada deserves accountability, not this parade of phonies dancing on graves of broken promises.
@IKEACanada I really hope the furniture pick up clerk is right and that the online description of three boxes is incorrect. Iโm gonna be so pissed if I have to come back to IKEA to pick up the missing third box.
