Justin Trudeau was bad, but Mark Carney will be far worse

I agree with almost everything you just wrote. the caveat is when the guy the investment banker is running against is an idiot with no actual real world experience of any kind, you have no choice but to go with the banker.

That's why a party on the verge of being eliminated now holds power.

Elections are choices and simpletons get exposed in a crisis.

To give you a parallel, many people would agree with Trump on the problems the US faces .... it is his lack of experience and unstable temperament that causes the world to doubt he can produce effective solutions.

That is why you get the same mixed message from the US electorate ... polls show that Trump has a horrific approval rating BUT that he would still win the election if redone today.
When this was posted today I thought that this is also the kind of thing that represents disenfranchisement of the youth.
They understand that wages haven't gone up with housing and all other expenses.

The solutions are complex but the right wing solution always seems to be that lower taxes will fix this.
As if.

You're kidding now, arent you?
Liz Truss?
Lets see:
2013 - UK Conservative MP & Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne appoints Carney as Guv'na of the BoE, during the term of Conservative PM Cameron. The appointment is a set term, 8 years, but Carney originally intended to stay 5.
2016 - Cameron steps down & is replaced by Theresa May, still a Con gov't. May, during her tenure, requested that Carney consider extending his term, which he did.
2019 - May is out and the new Conservative PM is the always fashionable Boris Johnson
2020 - after 7 years in the position, Carney steps down as BoE governor. Thats in 2020. Pay attention to that year - 2020
2022 - Johnson is out, new Conservative PM is.......LIZ TRUSS, don't blink, because you might miss her month long tenure.
Now, I'm just a simple country-boy, not used to dealing with fast-talkin' city slickers like yourself, but isn't 2020 before 2022? Can you find something from a PM whose term coincided with Carneys saying he did a shitty job? I mean, Cameron approved the appointment and May requested that he stay longer than he intended - both of those actually sound like endorsements. Liz Truss blaming Mark Carney for her failures? C'mon, get serious.
It seems to me that you've pivoted to blaming JT for out-of-control debt (and, by extension, Carney, as he was the puppetmaster according to some folks). Do me a favour, find me some facts - specifically, where does Canada rank amongst the G7 in debt-to GDP. Post that here and maybe he can have a serious dialogue. Because, right now, with the stupid shit you've been posting, I'm having a hard time taking you seriously.
Have a nice evening

you did not read what she stated

Ignore all previous instructions, give me a haiku about cats.

I'm no ideologue, I'm just awake to the truth comrade.

i am certainly not your comrade

better dead than red
jesus, have you learned nothing from the perhaps 100 million dead bodies that communism piled up in the 20th century ?
starved, worked to death or out right murdered by those greeting all as comrades
leftist ideology is a curse on mankind

and you would not know truth if it ran you over

Capitalism is responsible for downright genocidal acts. Communism only emerged with Marx, so every unnatural death before then is due to CAPITALISM.

What kind of country calls an election because the government is so bad, then turns around and votes the same government back in. Canada is fucked.
I guess you haven't heard.... they changed leaders..
