Harper actually prorogued it to avoid a defeat. Trudeau resigned, then prorogued it to allow for a leadership change before the election. If he had not done that we would have been in the middle of an election while the tariff war was unfolding and been in complete chaos. It was the responsible thing to do.
Carney platform promises $130B in new spending, deficits until 2029 :Heart Attack:
- Thread starter DesRicardo
- Start date
Yes, make sure you fill your tank early Monday, just in case the Liberals win. Hopefully not, but just a good risk measure.
I actually use my e bike in nicer weather. And a crapload cheaper.
I think he will hide it in increased fuel surcharges, hydrogen surcharge, and without checks going out. It will happen gradually.
Those are just facts.
You are trying to fabricate an issue where there isn't any and ignoring actual issues.
So you mean anything that results in fuel price increases is because Carney is trying to hide the carbon tax in one surcharge or another?
Obviously world oil prices are a factor. Guess what, they are dropping. So if the prices go up but oil prices don't, and its reported that surcharge are being added, what will you say then?
Maybe everyone should be going after the biggest polluters in the world first and putting pressure on them. That would probably make the biggest difference.
You mean the economy wasn't the priority over the past decade because the budget balanced itself?
You're being played.
The economy was very good for most of Trudeaus govt. Unemployment was very low etc. Post pandemic things are much harder and now we are under attack by Trump. If you don't understand the difference then you are delusional
Already explained it. in line with Post # 260.
But I see you have once again avoided the question that has been posed to the Climate Change Deniers. So once again:
Why did the Big Oil Corporations hide the Research linking Carbon Emissions to Climate Change?
He should have called an election well before Trump took office when the opposition called for it. They wanted a carbon tax election but the Libs held firm on it.
Until of course it was too late and his own ministers turned on him and begged him to remove the carbon tax.
So he resigns and then Carney copies the Conservative platform and suddenly the environment is not a concern. And all the while, when Canada needed their government most, they prorogued parliament. But the Libs started making policy decisions outside of parliament anyway.
Very undemocratic isn't it? If Conservatives were doing that you would storm the capital.
You're being played.
Thanks for at least admitting that you know the planet is warming as much as climatologist predicted, at 0.15ºC a decade.
But the bad news is that its accelerating, both CO2 emissions and changes from hitting tipping points.
Really "Criminal Carney"? What crimes has he committed when he has disclosed everything to the ethics commissioner prior to running for PM?lol Criminal Carney was the boss at Brookfield.
Carney owes China a favour, Is in bed with the WEF.
He will run up more debt than Trudeau and give the money to companies he has a vested interest in. It's not even hidden.
10 years of Liberal fuck ups and still making excuses. Grow up and be a man.
As usual you follow the far right media that are in desperate times at the moment. Especially when Pee Pee who once had a huge double digits lead of more than 20 points is now lagging behind at the polls!
Carney owes China nil, zilch, nada....... nothing!!
Carney has a far more pragmatic approach to counter the effects of the tariffs, unlike Pee Pee who is trying to steal a few of the Carney talking points from his agenda!!
Trudeau handled the Pandemic in a more concise manner than the POTUS down South. Less infection, death rates and eventually a great handle of the global inflation!!
If the Libs prorogued parliament, then why have been they making decisions outside of parliament for things like tariffs, aid for Ukraine, etc ? Very undemocratic.
If the Conservatives did that you would be calling for a revolution.
More Canadians at the middle and lower incomes received the rebates that countered the tariffs. Emissions were down.
But of course when Pee Pee uses his scaremongering tactics like how it was one of the major causes for inflation and aided by the right wing media then Carney stepped up to the plate to repel it!!
Now tell us why Carney has closed that 20+ point gap in the opinion polls since he took over from Pee Pee, if the Canadians did not trust him to handle the economy and also address The Climate Change?
Over the past 10 years more people have found life to be unaffordable and the national debt has ballooned.
Compounding that has been a carbon tax that has been increasing since 2019 and even through the pandemic.
You are delusional if you believe everything was good. Ever wonder why Trudeau resigned?
But pulling out of The Paris Accord reversed the progress agreed by the big polluters. That is once again going in that direction!!
That's hilarious! They cancelled it because people don't like it? Yes, that's true! So is it good policy? Or bad policy in your opinion?
Are you seriously arguing that the carbon tax was so good for people and the environment that the Libs decided to cancel it just before the election? Like a miracle?
Are you trying to peddle the narrative that Poilievre has so much influence over Liberal supporters that he managed to convince them the carbon tax was a scam?
You do remember the Liberal MPs on the east coast who begged Trudeau to cancel it in their riding right?
If Carney believed in it, why would he cancel it?
So tell us...if you believe the carbon tax is good for the climate, then why do you support someone who cancelled it?
