No one should be shocked that Justin “the rich need to pay their fair share” Trudeau would be in any way affiliated with someone using offshore tax havens. Trudeau’s chief fundraiser, Stephen Bronfman, is also named in the Paradise Papers as setting up a scheme for the late Senator Leo Kobler — Pierre Trudeau’s chief fundraiser.“
You are right that NO ONE, anybody, should be shocked that JT was harboured by those who who use offshore tax havens to safely keep their ill-gotten riches from the Taxman. Kinda reminds me of the Xmas vacation he took on the Aga Khan’s Island, another of whom sought OUR tax dollars (and got them) by lobbying the corrupt Lieberal gov’t.

No. No one should be surprised at all.

Try again Hurt. Show us something that actually WILL be a surprise.
No one is shocked in this thread by unproven allegation about JT or his allies and the inevitable seal clapping by the anti-JT crew. Was Bronfman cheating the tax man?.....was he charged? .......is there an investigation because I was reminded in another thread that a lot of these offshore accounts are.......... LEGAL. Without any evidence to say otherwise, it's another pile of NOTHINGBURGERS.

There was a great reason to call the election.
No there wasn't. There was NO reason to call that election. Justin Trudeau is a piece of garbage.

If you return to the original post you will see that rustled said there was nothing wrong with offshore accounts if they were set up by accountants following the law (legally). Rustled made NO mention of ILLEGAL accounts, of which there may be none or many. We simply do not know yet. (Or, will we ever know.? Sensitive info like this tends to be lost or vaporized).
Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice. There’s a certain point at which ignorance becomes malice, at which there is simply no way to become THAT ignorant except deliberately and maliciously.

Some of the highest vaccination rates,
What does this have to do with Justin?
employment back at pre-pandemic levels,
Are they though? Tried buying any appliances, cars or real estate lately?
things humming along.
Not really, but thanks.
Sounds like sound leadership to me.
Sounds like giant loads of BS to me.
Don't know why anyone would complain, other than they just don't have anything else going for them.
Because Justin and the Liberals just plain suck. It's pretty simple.
At 72+% we are one of the top 5 countries in the world when it comes to vaccine implementation for Covid-19. It means we not only were able to procure them but distributed and implemented them successfully.

All 3 million jobs that were lost since 2020 have now been recovered with the latest 150,000+ job gain this past month.

Inflation has nothing to do with job gain. Inflation is running high everywhere due to money printing, low interest rates and also supply chain disruptions. These are all temporary measures. Real Estate being up has helped millions of Canadians accumulate wealth, do you have something against this?

You keep hating JT so much but really have only opinions. Is this one of those "if they pick on you, they really really like you" kinda things?

Once again, Trudeau is all talk but no action..

https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnis ... t-it-seems

“ It is a hollow, virtue-signalling gesture. (You know, like declaring a national day of reconciliation, then buggering off to the beach.)

Back on Sept. 28, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said all federal workers would be compelled to get fully vaccinated. “We are going to ensure the federal public service is vaccinated,” he said. “There is a clear requirement for vaccination for anyone who works for the federal government.”

Except that when Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland announced the vax policy on Wednesday, there were gaps in it you could drive a semi through. Several semis.
The Treasury Board claims that Ottawa employs the equivalent of 300,540 full-time civil servants. About 212,000 of them will be exempt from getting vaccines.

In case you’re curious, that’s nearly 70% of the federal workforce that won’t be covered by the mandatory vaccine policy.

According to Blacklock’s Reporter: “Exempted employees include (federal) call centre operators, federal judges, meat inspectors, park wardens, postal workers, tax auditors, Commons and Senate staff,” and members of the armed forces.

Mounties, Canada Border Services agents and federal prison guards must be fully vaccinated by the end of October or face being placed on unpaid leave by mid-November. But soldiers, sailors and air force personnel are exempt.
Also excluded from the mandate are any federal employees who work for Crown corporations, such as Canada Post. Right, why should they be vaccinated? They only visit about 40% of the homes in the country and touch the mail of every Canadian who uses a superbox or postal office to pick up their letters and parcels.

Tax processors and auditors at the Canada Revenue Agency are exempt, as are federal employees who deal directly with the public or employees of departments that are deemed short-staffed by the Trudeau government, so cannot afford to lose any more workers.

According to Blacklock’s, that includes call centre operators who process E.I. claims and veterans’ benefits.

For me, here’s the kicker: The unlucky saps who aren’t exempt, don’t have to provide proof of vaccine. They merely have to fill out an online form claiming to be fully vaccinated or claiming a religious or medical exemption.“

Terrible post AS. :thumbsdown: :thumbsdown:

Yes, many people have "opinions" when they see a guy who claims to be our PM continually engaging in malfeasance, continually lying, and continually demonstrating that he doesn't give a :swear: about Canadians. These are "opinions" based on what a complete idiot Justin has been, and continues to be. It's just so sad that this is the best apparently that the Liberals could dredge up as a leader. Just total bottom of the barrel garbage.

You might want to have a look at this article about inflation: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-10-10/ ... /100526856

"On trend inflation, which refers to longer-term dynamics, he said working-age populations would start declining in many countries as populations age.

And that would see the global labour supply shrink in coming decades.

"All of the factors that have led to an increase in labour, the reduction in bargaining power that went with it, the decline in trade unions etcetera, all of that will now reverse," he said.

"It [will make] the availability of labour, from having been coming out your ears, to being hard to find, and people will bid up wages in order to deal with the shortages of workers that they will increasingly be facing, not just temporarily.

"That's not transitory. It's here for the long run," he said."

Cyclical inflation, especially in assets, is driven largely by low interest rates when combined with limited supply. Housing, auto prices etc. where loans are a fact of life for most. We do indeed have supply chain disruptions adding into that at the moment - and improved supply chains are likely to be more costly.

There are other factors such as the temporarily tough to cross borders for TFWs that can't be helped at the moment. That plays into lack of retail supply for some products in the agricultural/food sector and therefore price stickiness for seasonal items, meat products etc.

None of this is truly in the government bailiwick until the pandemic can be brought under control - and worldwide. Might as well try to blame Bernier as to try to blame Trudeau for conditions that no one wanted.
The middle path - everything in moderation, and everything in its time and order.

Trudeau, voted worlds most parasitic mind. He is immoral and dangerous.
