Liberals

[moarcowbell]

Good selection from the piece above that definitely fits the new "woke style liberalism" introduced to this country via trudeau.


The Soviet Union ultimately collapsed from internal contradictions related to a faltering ideology, limited free speech, economic mismanagement, deteriorating international influence and an inability to deliver on promises of a better life that were painfully obvious to all but were not, for fear of brutal reprisal, discussed publicly until near the very end. Justin Trudeau’s leftist woke government is afflicted by similar if milder contradictions that in our free country the aggrieved population living under them is discussing quite openly — which suggests the government’s dissolution will come faster.

^^^^^

That’s the long version of The Emperor Has No Clothes.

It’s a sad situation when the Niberal thugs congratulate each other for doing a fine job for the country, never looking out a window to see the populace suffering from the ‘fine’ job.

This emperor's clothes should be reduced to simple tar and feathers.

Breaking: Trudeau's security forces assault peaceful protesters!

CHAOS erupted outside of the Liberal Party Caucus Retreat, where protesters with F*** Trudeau flags were arrested and beaten by Trudeau's guards. The one girl who was ragdolled at the end was reportedly just picking up her cell phone.

I'm taking that "just picking up her cell phone" with a grain of salt. Would be good to see it from another angle.

Gosh, I know that finding reports that are unfavourable to the Putz is hard to find on msn, but can’t find anything about this story

Was it quickly hushed up? Maybe only available on Rebel or Celt

Anyone find a news story about this?

I don’t doubt that it’s true as there are many other stories of protests against this awful govt, easily found.

Thanks for nothing Turdeau/Liberals/NDP lapdogs - keep doubling down on your failed experiments - it's us lowly serfs picking up the slack.

nobody expects political leaders to be perfect, or to always get things right when dealing with difficult issues.

However, what is expected is that leaders will take responsibility for their errors, learn from those errors, and correct them when it comes obvious that their policies aren’t working.

That’s what strong and successful leaders do.

Weak leaders on the other hand always blame others.

They find scapegoats, and attempt to direct public anger towards those scapegoats.

And that brings us to Justin Trudeau.

Having caused a problem – inflation – Trudeau is now attempting to blame grocery stores for the problem. And his threat to impose a grocery tax would of course push prices even higher.

This is classic Trudeau: Double down on failure.

Unfortunately – as noted by Mark Mulroney – it’s also classic socialism:

“In summary. COVID, prints more $ than any other G7 nation per capita then Government marries NDP to stay alive. Conservatives predict inflation, told to pipe down, inflation now rampant, socialist blame capitalists, can’t be their fault, bring on taxes, welcome to Venezuela.”

Sabrina Maddeaux: Liberal 'visionary' housing plan = young people still screwed

You read it here first: a thrilling announcement of epic proportions! An idea no Canadian newspaper has dared fathom until now. It’s entirely new; absolutely game changing. Prepare to be wowed.

Here it is: the National Post will continue to print columns on a daily basis. Our brand colour will continue to be yellow.

This is more or less the equivalent of what Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Housing Minister Sean Fraser announced this Wednesday, just hours after Fraser teased unprecedented measures to tackle the housing crisis. That morning, he told media, “Today’s going to be the first time we’ve done something like this in Canada.”

It most definitely was not. In fact, it was essentially a repeat of an announcement the Liberals have re-repeated ad nauseam, as though Canadians just haven’t heard it correctly yet, since 2021.

Trudeau told the media his government sealed a $74 million agreement with the city of London, ON to build 2,000 new units through its Housing Accelerator Fund. But this is not new money. It’s already committed money, which was part of the Liberals’ 2021 election platform.

The fund’s original target was to accelerate the construction of 100,000 new middle-class homes by 2024-2025. It then appeared in the 2022 federal budget, with an updated goal: 100,000 new homes by 2027.

So far, precisely zero new middle-class homes, or any homes for that matter, have been built with the help of the program. Only after a torrent of criticism and an alarming exodus of young supporters to Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives did the Liberals deign to finally launch the fund this spring.

About that program: at the same press conference, Trudeau said, “I want to challenge other mayors right across the country to step up with their proposals, too.” The only problem being that applications for the Housing Accelerator Fund closed in August.

The press conference left the impression that Liberals, despite saying over and over again how much they’ve come around on housing, still fundamentally don’t get it on either an emotional or logistical level.

“It’s not fair to young people who feel like cities are turning their backs on them,” Trudeau said in not particularly impassioned remarks. “When housing is that expensive, young people feel like cities don’t want them.”

Not sure who would have the lower IQ, a liberal politician or a liberal voter.
Proposed in 2022 and is now a thing. Just heard about it last night from a friends wife who's work manages one of the big delivery companies buildings in Canada. The numbers this was going to cost them is mind boggling.

For those who think this is just a rough patch in Canada and things will get better.....how do you turn around this stupidity without getting rid of the stupid people?

Because liberalist continue to blame everything on covid, here are the findings from OECD, in which canada is a member, from 2020, with all data used for the reports gathered before covid.
Its scary.
Canada has consistently ranked poorly on the index relative to its G7 peers. In 2020
Past generations of young Canadians entering the workforce could look forward to favourable tailwinds lifting real incomes over their working lives. That’s no longer the case. If the OECD’s long-range projections prove correct, young people entering the workforce today will not feel much of a tailwind at all. Rather, they face a long period of stagnating average real incomes that will last most of their working lives. On average, Canadian living standards and our quality of life relative to other countries are set to decline as other countries make their economies more productive.

Long range projections are not certain. But in providing a glimpse of a possible future, they offer us an opportunity to reflect and make a course correction lest they become reality.

It is time for Canada’s political class to rethink their priorities and take steps to create the conditions for a more productive economy. This will require some hard thinking and expertise about how to raise labour productivity growth and real wage growth through higher business investment per worker, faster innovation adoption, and adjusting the incentives (and disincentives) facing Canadian companies aspiring to operate at scale.

Where, oh where, does all our money go to anyway?

Higher gasoline prices drove Canada’s inflation rate to 4.0 per cent in August, making it the second month in a row inflation has risen.

Statistics Canada released its consumer price index report Tuesday, which shows the annual rate rose from 3.3 per cent in July.

In British Columbia, inflation jumped to 3.8 per cent, up from 3.0 per cent in July.

Economists widely expected this uptick in inflation and anticipate slower progress on getting price growth down over the next few months.

On a monthly basis, though, prices rose at a slower pace in August compared with July, largely due to lower prices for travel tours and air transportation.

Grocery prices are also rising at a slower annual pace, rising 6.9 per cent from a year ago compared with a reading of 8.5 per cent last month.

Meanwhile, grocery prices fell by 0.4 per cent between July and August.

Higher grocery prices have been a major pain point for Canadian families, particularly those with lower incomes who spend a larger share of their earnings on food.

Industry Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne met with the top executives of Canada’s major grocery chains on Monday to discuss measures to stabilize prices.

After the meeting, Champagne said the grocers agreed to work with the federal government, but few details were provided on how prices could be stabilized.

Meanwhile, the Bank of Canada will be paying close attention to Tuesday’s inflation figures.

Earlier this month, it decided to hold its key interest rate steady earlier this month as the economy slows.

But the central bank said it expects inflation to remain stubbornly high and to even rise in the short-term.

Tuesday’s report shows the Bank of Canada’s preferred measures of inflation — which strip out volatility — accelerated last month.

Thanks to trudeau's Woke liberalist's movement, we pretty much have this with in our society today. Pretty fitting too.


“Zealous activists,” according to the Angus Reid study, make up 17 per cent of the population. They are ardent social progressives who believe that cancel culture is about “accountability.” I think of them as wolves. They travel in packs. These are woke mobs pushing the social justice revolution. They hunger to rip to shreds the reputation of anyone who defies progressive agendas.

Although they sometimes attack big targets, wolves prefer to hunt the vulnerable. They dress in sheep’s clothing, pretending to protect the weak and the downtrodden. But when the weak or downtrodden step out of line, wolves turn on them without a moment’s hesitation. Wolves appear to be more numerous than they really are, perhaps because they howl incessantly. They are proud virtue-signallers. Some truly believe in the cause, but activism is also a means to professional and social standing: they compete with one another for status within the pack.
