Mr. Trudeau Not doing So Well In Latest Poll
- Thread starter The Oracle
- Start date
Have you scrutinized the link that you posted? Where does it state that there are 80-90% of economists that are calling for a recession?
While around 65% of economists predicted a recession for 2023, all of them were proven to be WRONG!! Now it is a mixed bag for 2024 as inflation in both the USA and Canada had a stark drop to 3.2% in the USA and 3.1% in Canada. If there is a recession then it is expected to be short-lived. Remember that the elections do not have to occur until 2025 in Canada.
Pee Pee did make a howler with this "Terrorist" statement of his, especially as CTV have now proven him to be wrong that they published it before he announced it in the Parliament.
He probably used Fox Fake News, and the second howler of his was regarding the "Carbon Tax" on the Free Trade with Ukraine. Turns out that there was nothing of that sort!!
A compromise on democracy? Plus other letters, Nov. 24: ‘Pierre Poilievre is starting to show his true colours’
Re “Pierre Poilievre playing to base on Canada-Ukraine free-trade agreement is a compromise on democracy” (Nov. 23): If I ever had any doubt, Pierre Poilievre is starting to show his true colours more clearly in recent weeks.
His default setting seems to be negativity. Rather than be seen to vote with Liberals and socialists, he opposes a Ukraine free-trade agreement. He complains that the Liberals are doing nothing to help the housing crisis, and then complains that they are spending too much when they actually do. The name Justin Trudeau appears in nearly every sentence.
He seems to be a man obsessed and willing to do whatever necessary to gain power. That’s a scary prospect, and eerily reminiscent of a recent U.S. president.
Costs and benefits
Re “Faced with an economic downturn, the Liberals’ fiscal framework could easily derail” (Editorial, Nov. 22): For decades, I have witnessed the cacophony and hand-wringing that surrounds government deficits and accumulating debt. Balancing budgets and overspending have become an obsession with politicians, particularly from the right of the political spectrum.
I have never observed what I consider to be negative effects of large government expenditures. Indeed, quite the opposite. Medicare comes to mind and more recently the Canada Emergency Response Benefit. Now, there is the pending massive investment in housing. More is coming.
Yet we continue to hear the usual criticisms. Even if there is a little bit of truth in some of them, I believe they pale against the benefits of large outlays of spending.
The proof lies in the significant benefits to most citizens as a result of huge government investments and, yes, producing debt which, for at least as long as Canada has been a country, has been manageable.

From Global News no less....That's a really low rating in his own party.
His ego won't let me him step down though. No surprise there I reckon, lol.
Good. I don't want him to step down. I need to see that ass whipping in the elections on TV.
PP has plenty of time to implode. Rates will be down, inflation down more EVs,
