Whether it's $4,200 or some other amount the amount of debt added to each household by an extra $60,000,000,000 is all Dick's fault. Everyone that pays attention to the confidence-and-supply agreement between the NDP and the Libs knows that it has worked to the benefit of the NDP and not the people he is supposed to be serving ...

$60 billion divided by 28 million working people multiplied by a typical household of 4 people just added 8,571.43 to our debt burden ... and then there are the typical pinko diversion tactics to deflect from the fact that dick is interfering in the electoral boundary adjustment process (among many other issues including his fake climate cult warnings) ... it's all part of his attempt to change anything but the weather and instead uses changes in the 'environment' as code for changing our economic social and political climate and environment ...

dick is a failure. get used to it. the longer he stays in office the more bad things there are to remember him by.

dick should resign in order to avoid more failures.

Someone gets it.

Of course, the NDP boot licker gets it too, but he's just deliberately obfuscating in a futile attempt to protest lame Dick's gigantic failures.

Thanks for that. Such a nice change from the economically ignorant who try to push gross over-simplifications as if they were a credible argument, and then deflect from direct questions with insult and derision. The NDP would be asking how much of that debt load is borne by the working class and how much is covered by the rich. There would be some good fodder for discussion there.

You mean like when dick put forward his private members' bill to give the billionaire owners of low alcohol beer tax breaks?

You mean that kind of 'economically ignorant' issue?

You mean like when dick adds another $60 billion to the $1.4 trillion in federal debt at a time when inflation is through the roof and people are having a hard time just making ends meet and living pay cheque to pay cheque?

You mean like when dick interferes with the establishment of new electoral boundaries and fumes in Ottawa about it all while pretending to ask for input and never reports back to the people he asked for input from?

You mean like when he has a confidence and supply agreement with the most corrupt, unethical, immoral black-face wearing, indigenous attorney general hating, etc etc individual in the history of Canada's prime ministers? That type of ignorant?

You mean like when dick flies one of his office workers from Ottawa to Penticton and back for only three days with no indication of what they were doing to serve constituents? That type of ignorant person?

dick is an abject failure and has no one to blame but himself for sinking the average citizen into record levels of debt all while pretending to care ... dick should resign before there are even more things to 'remember' him by ...

LOL. Ah, yes, it would be typical of the NDP to promote adversarial narratives about "the working class" (oppressed) vs "the rich" (oppressors)!

Cannings needed some good press.

The work his office did for a family dealing with immigration issues does NOT excuse choosing to ignore constituents.

Of course it would, the NDP recognizes the dangers of out of control economic inequality, something both the Liberals and Conservatives only give passing lip service to, and only around election time. Go figure.

Meanwhile, the less gullible simply recognize the use of buzzwords and dogma.

LOL. The Liberals these days probably do, cuz using buzzwords words like "danger" helps them grow government.

I doubt many Conservative politicians would talk about "the dangers of out of control economic inequality", though, unless they're discussing an example of how the NDP commonly promote "oppressor/oppressed" narratives.

Associating this sort of "thinking" with Cannings isn't really doing him any favours, IMO.

Thankyou Richard for all you do for EVERYone. Now this family gets to stay in Canada :up:
How is he working on Canadian's behalf in this story? The people in the story are not Canadians.
This family came here on a 10-year Visitor's visa. (Not sure how you can even get one of those, since you would not be able to work under a vistitor's visa). They had one anchor baby and are now expecting another. They might be perfectly nice people, but they are not Canadians.


Several years ago, the parents were given 10-year visitor visas to come to Canada and subsequently work visas.

Shortly afterwards, they applied for refugee status. However, that claim and two subsequent appeals were denied in 2021 and 2022 because they were unable to provide adequate documentation to substantiate their claim.

The couple fear that once they leave, a comeback will not be possible in Canada, which they consider as home and the community in Penticton as family.

They also said that it would be difficult for them to get jobs in India because of their limited qualifications, according to local media reports.

Poilievre mentions it now and then, but just to score political points, not because it's something he actually cares about. It's just a dog-whistle to people who do care about it, to give it any serious attention would upset the lower forms that are his voter base.

Considering the importance of electoral boundaries, could you expand on what you mean by "the lower forms that are his voter base" so that everyone knows how seriously issues like "insult and derision" are when discussing matters.

While you ponder that it is clear that dick is economically (and perhaps culturally and socially) illiterate except when it comes to the close to $500,000 we fork out annually to run his offices that he doesn't use, the staff we pay for to fly from Ottawa to Penticton/Castlegar to Ottawa for a few days, the advertising we pay for that masquerades as 'updates' etc.

You see most everyone knows that dick is a failure in accountability, transparency and responsiveness ... fails at involving constituents in legislative affairs ... fails to hold meaningful interactions with the public in a democratic contexts ... etc etc etc

LOL. It seems more likely he talks about the dangers of out of control government spending. How did this come to be about Poilievre and ways to insult your fellow Canadians? Offering this nonsense up as a distraction from Cannings' inability to prioritize the responsibilities that came with the job we pay him to do?

:up: :up: :up:

Besides those stalwarts that work for the NDP, there's no one on here that has anything good to say about Dick.

David Finnis and his sparse crew try to pump Dick up on social media, but trying to make a hero by cheering on his farts per kilometer on his bicycle really doesn't give constituents a warm and fuzzy feeling. I'm sure that those who are going to be represented by a different MP are counting their blessings.

A quick review of this thread will reveal who the purveyors of insult and derision are here. I'll go so far as to suggest that the revision of electoral boundaries is not something Mr. Cannings' detractors care deeply about, or even understand the basics of, rather it is just a vehicle for poor behavior. Such is the wont of lower forms.

If dick wasn't so preoccupied playing his pinko politics thinking he's smarter than everyone else he might get more support ... whether his detractors care deeply about electoral boundaries (or any other issue) is not the point ... it's dick that is "worried about electoral boundaries" and, as mentioned, word on the street is he is furious because he is going to lose a significant part of his base ...

There's more ...

dick is a whiner too ... he was just complaining that "It is very difficult ... to travel back and forth every week, as we like to do, to our homes..." and that he doesn't live close to an airport like other MP's do ... he asked for the job, he got it, and he should do it ...

dick is a failure of enormous proportions on everything from adhering to democratic principles and practices to economics to other areas as well ...

dick should resign immediately ...
