The Cons should have clued in when their leader lost his seat on April 28, 2025. But …. they didn’t.

Yes
Yes all Cons leaders have been perfect and Libs losers. Ain't Democracy great! Like I said, lived thru Cons and Libs, doing fine, everyone I know is doing fine. From what I see it seems education and life choices make more of an impact than some random politician.
doing fine, everyone you know is doing fine so you say

Like I said, he's a 🤡 here to amuse and distract between shows. Taking him seriously would be a mistake.

David Emerson, a Liberal MP for Vancouver-Kingsway, caused controversy in 2006 by crossing the floor to join Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s Conservative cabinet immediately after being re-elected as a Liberal. Cons didn’t seem to have a problem with floor crossers then.

They don't have ANYONE to fall back on, that's their issue, but they won't admit it. Self inflicted. Even the leadership was a dog and pony show with a 'manufactured' 87.4% vote.

that did not hand the conservatives a majority and defy the will of the countries electorate to only grant the liberals a minority

odd how the liberals ""manufactured"" a party leader out of nice hair and a famous last name

just think, had Pierre Trudeau passed on his balding DNA we might have been spared the disaster that was Justin Trudeau

You have free will to make your situation better and find Utopia. Monaco is awesome. Spent quite some time there when living in Europe.

No taxes
No crime
Spotless
Great weather all year
Great access for travel

But a decent 500sq ft condo will cost you about $3.5MM Euro.
And only way to get citizenship IIRC is to marry a Monégasques or if the Prince grants you one.

Thought about it when retirement comes but Zurich or Hamburg are larger and more cost efficient.
I know, guess we will have to work hard to make Canada more like Monaco.

While I don't have kids, the younger generations in the family both here and Germany are doing fine as well. Pretty much all GenX (my generation) are multiple home owners. Milleniums and GenZ are homeowners up and down the West Coast, (Vancouver to San Diego) The GenZ family in Germany are much younger but all either in Med/Engineering. The ones not going to school are working taking over family business. Will have to go to school at some point as German law dictates that formal education is required in those fields. This also includes kids of friends and co-workers. C-Suite and executives at the office don't train their kids to be in 'trades'.

While I was in the military many years ago, I had cheap rent and a 20 year contact. You know what most of the members did, become 'lazy'. They knew they had a guaranteed cheque for 20 years and then a fully indexed pension. Only a handful went out and invested in real estate in places like Winnipeg, Cold Lake, Edmonton, Calgary, East Coast because rent was only $200. They spent more on booze and smokes than they did on groceries. Racked up debt because of the guaranteed income. The money was good for 1999 but fast forward 20 years, and no new skills, no real savings, and now stuck with a less an ideal pension. All self inflicted but they blame everyone else except their own poof life choices. I decided to buy, got a 2nd job for more cash flow. Then decided to leave the forces altogether as I knew $100K (in 1999) 20 years later would not be enough. Landed in pharma, then moved to Energy. I also worked with many civilians in the Oil industry who were easy come easy go. Buy everything on debt because the $$$$ from Fort Mac would never stop. Well it did and its not coming back.

Marlaina Smith crossed over from Reform to Cons in AB, nothing said. Now AB Cons are trying to get floor crossing banned. How convenient.....

This guy right here is still talking about getting a good deal.

Hell, why does he need a majority to make a good deal? You don't make any sense..............Unless he's going to get you into a bad.

And you'll accept a bad deal.
Why, because then the government can not have to worry over partisan axe grinding on ratifying a good deal.

Honestly I don't think Carney will accept a bad deal. I think he will ride it out until we get a good one, or the Southern management changes. A majority also gives him that ability.

We are talking about Trump here. So who the fuck knows how it will go. The war, Epstein and who knows what else is going to be happening. He may decide its not worth a fight, or try to use it as a distraction from bigger problems.

But I know Carney won't rise to any stupid bait, and let the lower levels work out the details on a deal as needed. Thats his wheelhouse.
