| EricHiggin said: We really do need to do something to make the vote more fair in a bunch of ways. Western Canada, especially Alberta, with how crucial it is to the Canadian economy, could vote 100% for a single party, and yet it basically means nothing if just Ontario and/or Quebec vote for a different party. That's not the end of the world if each Province is extremely independent, but if that's not the case, and say you've got to fork over billions to other Provinces because the Federal Gov forces you to share nicely, to prop up everyone else's standard of living, that's something that's not going to last without getting something worthy in return. I'm not sure what the best answer would be exactly, but what we have now is not good enough and more people are starting to get on board with changing that. Carney knows about the economy, but Pierre's not devoid of that by any means. Pierre was part of Harper's Gov and learned a lot from him, and Stephen is an economist, a big part of why Canada was doing so well back then and was basically on par with the USA. Pierre also has a degree in International relations, so dealing with Trump, as well as trade, would be right up his alley. Harper hasn't been campaigning with PP just because they're in the same party, he actually stands behind Pierre. That wasn't the case last election with O'Toole and the 'Harper paradox'. I personally can't understand why Liberals would want to vote for Carney, based on his resume. For decades and decades, maybe longer, Liberals have been saying that the system is corrupt because the politicians are bought and paid for, by the millionaire/billionaires, banksters, and wall street. Well Carney is a millionaire/billionaire, bankster, who's got ties and stock with Brookfield, a company he moved out of Canada and into the USA. He's literally the definition of 'the bad guys behind the scenes' corrupting politics. Not to mention his WEF membership, along with a bunch of others in the Cabinet. How anyone could vote for the person who's part of an elitist world group, who's well known motto is 'you'll own nothing and you'll be happy' is just beyond me. The only thing that makes any sense to me is that this is exactly what you'd expect in the backwards world of the 'memetrix'. Yet we have PP. Someone who's ideas and policies that he's been talking about for a year or more now, are getting copied, one after another by Carney, just like Kamala did with Trump. PP, who certainly seems like one of the few politicians who isn't compromised. Who's all for making Canada as independent as reasonably possible, and it's not like he wants to cut all ties with allies, but simply deal with them where it makes sense for the Country as a whole. I don't see how that's at all unreasonable or not good enough for a guy who's dedicated his life and time solely to this Country. |
You make good points, but I can't get past PPs statements about Gaza protests and his ties with tech bros willing to go full DOGE here as well.

Yes, Carney is part of an elitist group, but he's the lesser of 2 evils in my eyes, just like Harris was the lesser of 2 evils in the USA.
Is Pollievre a guy dedicated to all of this country, in which 95% of the population are immigrants after all?
