  • Albertan politicians can celebrate since they get paid in bribes from the US oil industry. The well-being of their province is irrelevant to them.

    Canadian conservative voters already vote for the party that is directly responsible for their issues.

    E.G. rural BC, suffering from the US being allowed to just import raw logs(so no more local sawmills) voted overwhelmingly in favour of John Rustad and his conservatives. Rustad was forestry minister when that deal was signed and is directly responsible for the issues that plague rural BC.

    Moreover, the federal conservatives created NAFTA that disallows us from stopping the export of something unless we dont have any more, so the NDP couldn't stop the raw log flow now if they wanted to.

  • Not landlords. About securing investments in commercial real estate.

    Which given its traditional status as a rock solid baseline for investors, its not at all surprising that two rich fuckers are pushing hard to shore up commercial real estate. It probably makes a significant part of their investments.

  • So the problem is that AI based search engines dont give credit to their source sites because they do not link to the source site, but instead steal the content in a legally untested method and serve that up.

    Nothing to do with links going extinct.

  • Harris was beating the pants off of Trump when she was seen as a progressive. she lost because she went right.

    The trumpists were right though. She went to the right to emulate Clinton, tried to flip Texas and lost. Just like they called out.

  • Two month old account? Get your reddit ass back to that garbage fire, I've been on the fediverse since the first reddit wave.

    The "narrative" is that Trump is wholly owned by Bibi, as that fucker has helped him every election, and will let him do whatever he wants. Helping that fucker get elected l, as you did by not voting for Harris will only hasten the genocide in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon.

    And no, there hasnt been the posts about protesting Trump's worryingly close relationship to Bibi to anywhere near the degree that you were all so "worried" about Harris.

  • I for one am tired of the smoke and mirrors.

    Queue up meaningful change but then "oops, new term,

    <insert insane reason or just GOP>

    " Obama didn't investigate Dubya's fucking Torture Camps, nor into the subprime mortgage.

    They did the same shit with Net Neutrality under Obama. Left it with a massive and meaningless "ramp up" time that coincidentally meant it would be a year into the next president's term. Oops Ajit Pall is parachuted in and cancels the whole thing before the "ramp up" is done.

  • As the link i posted points out, there is already a law on the books to stop exactly what Walmart and Target are doing in the US.

    It has just never been enforced against them and the Biden administration joins the list that did nothing to stop them using laws they already had

  • Did Biden take on the illegal price gouging that Walmart and Target participated in during Covid? The thing that is directly causing Americans so much financial stress?

    No it did not.

    This is just another lie from the DNC blue dog propaganda machine trying to blame anything but itself for the loss.

    To be fair, Trump is a complete disaster, but to claim that Biden did a decent job is a compete fabrication.

    1. They need a majority of the provinces to have allied conservative governments to re-open the constitution, the charter and pervert both of them.

    To that end Alberta spent at least 20 million dollars in the last two months to influence elections in British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.

    1. Poilievre would need to deal with the Supreme Court of Canada. This is one of the things Harper tried to start but he was stymied at several levels because lawyers and justices protested his attempt to insert unqualified judges to that bench.

    However, the government also has the Notwithstanding clause that allows them carte blanche to override the Charter of Rights and Freedoms to do what they want, subject to those overrides being refreshed every 5 years. That clause was included over a fear of judges having too much power and was included at the last minute. Outside of Quebec, it has been used 6 times, all of them by conservative governments, mostly within the last 20 years.

    Uses outside of Quebec: • 1982 - Yukon - land planning bill • 1986 - Sask. - back to work legislation. • 2000 - Alberta - anti-LGBT marriage, overruled in 2004 by Paul Martin at the federal level. 2015 - Sask. - considered it to override ruling to keep outlawing public sector strikes, but relented and did not use it. 2017 - Sask. - override court ruling against public funding of non-Catholics attending Catholic schools. 2018 - Ontario - used to forcibly change Toronto's municipal council. 2021 - Ontario - overruled court to stifle free speech against them.

  • Pierre Poilievre is the leader of the conservative party. That party has been in the grips of religious zealots since 2003, when Stockwell Day capitulated the existing Progressive Conservative party to the extremist Reform party.

    When he(Pierre Poilievre) was a minister under Stephen Harper, they suppressed scientific research, abolished and ignored environmental laws, ran roughshod over first nations, tried to repeal same sex marriage and tied foreign aid to the passing of strict anti-abortion and anti-LGBT laws in the receiving countries. They also were riddled with scandals, including taking a significant portion of the security budget of a G7 conference in Toronto for various ministers pet projects in their own ridings. They also routinely capitulated to US interests, including destroying BC's forestry industry by allowing Canadian logs to be shipped directly to the US and not processed at all in Canada.

    Also they cut so much from the budget and gave to their friends; as an example, they sold the building space for the control tower for Vancouver Harbour to friendly developers. They also sold the land for Vancouver's coast guard base to developers, changing their response time from 5-15 minutes to 45-60 minutes. One of the things that helped Trudeau get elected in 2015 was reversing that sale and reopening the base.

    Poilievre and the CPC party have been caught at anti-vaxxer rallies, at anti-LGBT rallies, at the anti-vaxxer riots(both the truck border riot and the attempted coup in Ottawa) during Covid, and he has refused to get a security clearance so he and his party have not been willing to deal with known(according to CSIS) treasonous party members, nor have they done or said anything over Moti's(PM of India) inner circle officially attacking and murdering Canadian Citizens in Canada.

    Current polls put his CPC party at getting roughly 60 seats over a majority, and the election has to happen next year.
