We're expecting a gov't service that is in the same category as "maintaining property rights" to opperate as a for profit business? Stupid. If we want a national mail service we need to pay for it.
Might as well ask the military to be self-financing 🙄
Fuck you dude, you haven't banned our products from your shelves you threatened to take over our shelves, violently.
The Americans can't have it both ways, if you're waging economic war (and that's what's currently happening) we're not playing nice. Stop with the threats to our sovereignty and stop the economic chaos and we can talk about putting away our knives.
If you wanted to talk, you needed to start there. Chaos first, means you're serious about not talking 🙄
Carney is a breath of fresh air in Federal politics, didn't vote for them, but I approve of him as Prime Minister.
Harper made Canada a laughing stock internationally, Trudeau saved our image only to prove too vapid and gain us a rep for big talk and no action.
PP loves to talk about the "lost Liberal decade" but frankly I see 20 wasted under PM's that were little more than heavily polished caricatures of people; more interested covering up their mistakes than fixing real problems.
Carney seems like a real person, and one with relevant qualifications, who acts like an adult and wants to fix problems.
Or this is an "Obama" moment for Canada, a last impotent chance for change before the flood of misinformation fractures our institutions irrevocably 🤷
Yup, the Conservatives love to glorify local representation while being the party of the iron whip; ensuring the local "representation" is basically non-existant.
We need electoral reform, and a neutering of the party system 🫤
Hmmm, it's like they're all rich and know that in the end it'll be fine for them under a fascist regime?
I'm not an American, but I have to give the Trump supporters they are right about one thing: the Democrats do not seem interested in fixing their problems. Trump's just honest about it 🤷
I think a sad part of this is due to people wanting that vapid dopamagic response the algorithm provides.
Is it bad for us? Yes.
But addicts are going to addict 🫤
I know lots of people who made a fediverse account easy enough, but just end up back on the algorithm platforms as there's no effort required for discovery.
Whatever any of us feel about Trudeau (Jr) he ran two successful (as in close to full-term) minority parliments by being able to compromise and work with other parties.
Could anyone see PP compromising? Attack dogs don't have a "cooperate with others" mode.
So let's hope the children can all now go get along...
Shocking, I know.
It's actually sad that any women voted for him at all 🤷
