  • So does no one here understand the concept of manufactured chaos as a distraction ?

    The service tax was put in place ages ago but was never enforced. It’s the same trick with the whole border czar bullshit where Donald needs to feel big about something as a distraction despite its a throw away card and often something that was already agreed upon even without the US.

    Carney only kicked it up for Donald’s ego to feel like he made a deal. Why? Cuz Cheeto thrives on drama. Meanwhile Canada stole the wheat export market from right under the nose of trump. As well as a few other things no doubt.

    Canada is slowly disempowering US but needs some keys to periodically dangle in Donald’s face while they do it.

    Sheinbaum is a pro at this game and has been playing it cleanly for 7 months. Carney’s simply following suit.




  • cons aren’t the same way. a bulk of them aren’t interested in separation nor are they interested in indulging in conspiracy theories shat out of a horse’s asshole. In fact a lot of late voters were just buying into it for cheap housing scandal and the lies on libs and fentanyl. The only thing they crossed over with maga on was feeling abandoned. And this dumb idiot running Alberta is trying to sell it like the few speak for the majority. Cuz she’s a delusional idiot.

    It’s the loud few that protest in the ‘hundreds’ that are magnifying as if the whole entirety is in a sea of sheer stupidity. You’re not seeing the tens of thousands that out voted on ridings.

    If you just interview on the select few that will self identify as maga who infiltrated the Conservative Party it will definitely seem as if that’s the stretch of the Conservative Party.

    Let’s be real. If maga split into its own stupid party so much will be left behind. I say let them. They know they’ll die on their own. This is why she threatens it instead of just doing it. This is Danielle smith. Her game is To say shit and see how it lands and then backpeddle like the little coward she is. Her game is old and boring. She needs to go fall off of a barge

    Shit or get off the pot. Enough grand standing.


  • PPC already tried it. It was quite funny how they were so self convinced everyone in Canada were as crazy as they were and wanted all the same things.

    Maga seems to be just the same rinse repeat insanity

    I am getting so sick of this woman catering to these loud few in the tin foil hats. She’s completely ignoring the bulk of everyone else. She needs a no confidence out

    They are trying for over 300 b. The entirety of Canada is 400b. Meanwhile they (westerners) work in Alberta (contributing to it from there ) and retire in bc and Toronto(collecting it there as they age).

    The actual amount they contribute is approx closer 100b ( which still seems like a lot but that is only because of work age is usually in Alberta over in the west so a bunch of people influx to work there and pay into cpp while they are in Alberta at that point) and now Alberta wants to try to grift it from the average Canadian who should be allowed to maintain it regardless of where they live over the course of their life.

    And then they got even more greedy and lopped on a tonne of made up interest (which isn’t allowed to exist anywhere else in Canada but Alberta apparently) and blatantly ignored shifted population per province(maintaining nobody moves provinces as they age out of work) which makes this an illegally inflated imaginary number they think they are owed off the backs of all Canadians expected to pay an interest to Alberta who may not even end up collecting cpp ever in their lifetime either as it’s only ensured when you take from it. And as we know with life: there is no insurance a person makes it to pension age.

    They are trying to use this to manipulate all of Canada in which they want to lower the pension for old age making it less return. It’s already too low for inflated cost of living as it is. Like $700 a month. Which is really nothing. Impossible to live near a city or anywhere close to facilities on that.

    I would add a side note on CPP that it’s complete horse shit that anyone pays into a cpp via tax on their income but then gets taxed by the CRA again as income when they pull it out like some sort of dismissing return but I’ll admit that might be off topic and more for a stern letter for the MP to focus on that glaring problem instead.

    The experience shouldn’t offend the data. The data comes from the experience. If you keep discounting occurances it will seem rare and unusual. that’s perpetuating a fallacy.

    A close friend of mine has a son who hadn’t had seizures in a few years and they thought his seizures were being managed and that they found the right medication and treatment. Then suddenly he had a grand mal but luckily while they were out someone else was around. Took them all by surprise. he had a cardiac arrest and everything.

    This does count.

    It becomes less rare when you stop belittling experiences about it. It should absolutely be taken more seriously.
