@Anstria_G@Smil3yAngel If ‘Axe the Tax’ was only a slogan, then so was ‘Elbows Up.’ The difference is whether each leader backed the slogan with actual policy.
@Anstria_G@Smil3yAngel You can argue Carney had stronger financial credentials, but saying Poilievre had no platform just isn’t accurate. He released policy proposals on housing, crime, taxes, energy, immigration, spending and more. Disagreeing with them is different from pretending they didn’t exist.
@JigglyPants44 And yet he’s living rent-free in your head. 🙄 If he’s as irrelevant as you claim, why keep talking about him? Maybe you see him as more of a threat than you’d like to admit. 🤔”
@Jenniferl554563 Waiting for Trump to leave office isn’t much of an economic strategy. Canada has leverage through its energy, LNG, critical minerals and other natural resources. If we don’t develop and market those assets, investment and customers won’t simply wait—they’ll look elsewhere.
@mark_slapinski If follower count is the gold standard, then Kim Kardashian is one of the world’s foremost political commentators. I don’t think that’s how journalism works.
@Smil3yAngel If criticizing a government means you want your country to fail, then I assume everyone criticizing Harper, Trudeau, or any other prime minister wanted Canada to fail too? Or does that standard only apply when conservatives do it?
@gies_greg So what’s the plan? Never cross the border again? Stop buying American products? Or is this just venting? If the agreement is bad, criticize the governments that negotiated it—not 340 million Americans.
@KarenMessier So your boycott is active… except when it comes to posting on X, an American company owned by Elon Musk? Just trying to understand where the line is.
@Jenniferl554563 You say you want them to return to fiscal conservatism without social conservatism. Then you say you’d never support them even if they did. That suggests your decision isn’t really about policy anymore.
@CowboyCoffey2 Funny how the Opposition gets blamed for spending while the government that actually controls the treasury gets a free pass. If photo ops, international travel, and expensive dinners are the concern, people might want to look at the cabinet before the opposition benches.
@Jenniferl554563 Interesting… we’ve gone from ‘only Poilievre thinks he’ll be PM’ to ‘big oil and corporations think he’s worth backing.’ That’s quite a shift. 😂
