Right. Sure

"Freak of nature", "garbage" are your words and shining examples of NOT being a serious, nor informed person.

After almost 13 years of conservative right-wing, center-right mayors and conservative right-wing, center-right council majorities that drove Toronto to edge of the fiscal, financial, abyss and left a city in decay the people of Toronto elected one of the most qualified candidates in Canadian history as mayor.

Why do you despise democracy and/or democracy that doesn't fit your narrow, minded, one sided, skewed and biased view of life?

Do you even live in Toronto?
In the name of democracy, we will put her behind bars for her sins.

Corporations pay so many more taxes than just income taxes. They incur payroll taxes, WSIB premiums, EHT (Employer Health Tax), capital taxes, property taxes etc.
Thanks for the much more expansive response, but you need to tell "Oatmeal" brain, who thinks private sector pays virtually nothing.

Okay.
So per your logic you are saying:
1. "People" count as the private sector.
2. The government is made up of people. Infact too many people you say.
So per your statement #1, it would follow that the government is the.....private sector?!
do not misrepresent me
you already mis-represent yourself

Make it make sense.
This is what happens when you resort to mental gymnastics.
you mean like the mental back-flip, pirouette, forward somersault you did to come up with this nonsense
The private sector is a reference to businesses.
Not people.
or
illegals are not criminals
or
AOC is not the fembot carbon copy of the socialist idiot Trudeau.
(Is she not a feminist like Justin?)

No people aka the citizenry are not defined as the public sector or the private sector.
sure they are
this set of the "citizenry" is quite proud to Self - Identify themselves as Public sector employees
Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE)
they have t-shirts, a club house, placards and everything

Surely you are not going to overrule the rights of entitled public sector employees to Self - Identify .............now that a loonie left conundrum
are you going to betray your first principles in order to perpetuate your nonsense?

then ask a private sector employee if they Self - Identify themselves as Public sector employees
90% will laugh in your face and say, politely "No..... I work for a living..... in the private sector"

The private sector is a reference to only businesses that are not under direct government control.
Yikes a loonie preaching about govt control !


The private sector is a reference to businesses.
Not people.
please answer the question

A) Last week
B) two years ago
C) never
D) six pm today

Yes people identify as WORKING FOR the public sector or the private sector.
They DONT identify AS the public sector or the public sector.
Public sector refers to businesses and organizations under direct government control.
Private sector refers to businesses not under direct government control.
They arent a synonym for the citizenry aka the people.
Your own words buried your argument.

Just because you don't understand where the government's money comes from there's no need to accuse me of pivoting.
In fact, your evasive maneuvers are proof of you pivoting.
I answered the question directly without evasion.
You kept asking the same question over and over again.
So go back and read my comment without resorting to mental gymnastics.

You answered that the government gets it's money from taxpayers without answering where the taxpayers get their money.

Reminder: you said the government bailed out corporations and couldn't provide a direct answer as to where the government obtained the money to do so.

Do you want me to provide the answer if you are too confused here? Just ask.

Right, they are employees.
The phrase "public sector" or the "private sector" is a reference to the kind of business their employers are.
It does not ever refer to people. The citizens of a country are simply referred to as people or citizens.
You are repeatedly burying your own argument, embarrassing yourself inaccurately interpreting plain English and asking me if you hit a nerve? lmao.

employees are people
but you also said

so sub employees for people
after all as you say
Right, they are employees.
which leads to
No people employees aka the citizenry are not defined as the public sector or the private sector.
yet cupe is very clear in self- identifying its people as part of the public sector

We are 750,000 public service workers. We will back each other up. We will speak with one voice.

We are CUPE.
but then you deny their right to self- identify (this phrase is so cool when it trips up a lonnie) as part of the public sector
So much so that they repeatedly think they get call the shots in the public sector, including how much money is spent on compensation


No people aka the citizenry are not defined as the public sector or the private sector.
you are once again outfoxed by your own words
Can we call you Shaquille Jagmeet sell out Singh ?

You seem thoroughly discombobulated and all over the place.
The only discussion here is whether the phrases "public sector" and "private sector" refers to people.
They do not. They refer to businesses.
Businesses are legal entities.
They are not people.
No one referred to the citizenry of a country as "public sector" or "private sector".
When you introduce yourself do you go "Hi! I am John Larue! I am from Private Sector of Canada!!"? lmfao.
Or do you hear anyone saying "Today the private sector of the US will vote in the US presidential elections!"? lol.
No.
You instead say "Hi! I am John Larue! I am from Canada and I routinely embarrass myself!" lmfao.
You are arguing very poorly.

You are grasping.
The citizens, aka the individual people of a country, are referenced only as "Citizens" or "People".
They are not referenced as the private sector or the public sector.
It is completely nonsensical, a butchery of the English language and makes no sense to argue otherwise.
Private sector and public sector are used to refer to businesses that are respectively not under government control or under government control.
As I already provided you with an example.
You dont introduce yourself as "I am John Larue. I am from private sector of Canada!". lmao.
You, as an individual, are only identified as, a citizen or as a person from a certain country.
When someone further talks about where you work, they may say you work IN the public sector or IN the private sector.
Aka, IN those businesses.
But never are the phrases public sector and private sector used to reference individuals aka citizens aka people in a country.
I dont know why you keep quoting CUPE.
It does not do anything at all for your argument.
