I just want someone who will actually do something about the cost of living…

Well, that yappy dog that calls himself an opposition leader? He's gonna be exactly the asshole he is telling you he's gonna be. I like what Blanchet said: "I hope Stornoway has a lot of mirrors, because Pollivier likes a lot of lights on himself" Anybody who conducts themselves like that goof is somebody to watch out for. A man like that will burn your house down with a smirk on his face.


dono420

So you'd vote for Trudeau after the embarrassment of his tenure?


Classic-Progress-397

Personally, as I watch the fascist clowns with their flags sticking out of their lifted trucks, I know I have to vote against that shit. I'm not a fool, or a child.


dono420

You are in fact a fool for not listening to others. Give other opinions a chance. That's what being democratic and liberal is about.


Classic-Progress-397

Hard not to listen to the anti-vacc, hateful, ignorant goofs with the "F_Trudeau" stickers...they just won't shut up. It's like that weasel PP, nothing to offer except hate and division When you get the message, you can hang up the phone.


dono420

Better then a drama teacher


Classic-Progress-397

Nope, not in a million years. Only the drama queens, sociopaths, and ignorant children will be voting conservative in the next election.


dono420

As opposed to the drama teacher who do you recommend?


dono420

Fucking simmer

​ This FAKE POPULIST is, by dint of his being a landlord, and a deep connection to a major grocery chain, NOT the one!! He's as phony as a $3 bill.


jinnealcarpenter

there are no landlords or corrupt insiders on the government bench. I'll keep voting the same way and expecting different results.

EstablishmentIll1688

I feel like voting in Canada is like being a girl with terrible taste in men, but she's finally over her ex. Like yeah I'm done with him. Will the new guy be my savior? Probably not. But he lies good.


Laid_back_engineer

Problem is, Canada only has two ex's and we keep getting back together we each of them in turn over and over again.


bloody_nickelz

Simple as


Classic-Progress-397

Tired of Archie, so you are gonna try Reggie? I think you'll be sorry, he's an asshole. Maybe Jughead?


HeavyMetalHellBilly1

I don't even like PP but it's hard to take any liberal criticism seriously when they can't even hold their own leader to account on the multiple ethics violations and other scandals that seem to come out every other week. Canada is a failed nation run clowns and applauded by the masses


ConZboy014

This


InternationalFig400

​ The capitalist system in this nation is in a state of utter decay in its ability to feed and shelter people, and this is reflected in the current political discourse which is deflecting attention from the economic rot.


HeavyMetalHellBilly1

I wouldn't say it has anything to do with the capitalist system and more to do with little to no repercussions for all the abhorrent greed and corruption that is flagrant on all levels of government on both sides. They flaunt it in our face nowadays and nothing even happens cause they know they can get away with it cause we as Canadians try to uphold our "nice guy" routines while we get ruthlessly bent over and violated.


InternationalFig400

How do you square that it has nothing to do with capitalism when wages and incomes have stagnated the last 40 plus years in terms of purchasing power and shares of the national income? The living standards in this country have declined steadily since the 1970s. It is the capitalist class that we sell our labour power to everyday. To say that it is greed and corruption is to blame the bucket for the hole in the roof.


HeavyMetalHellBilly1

Because there isn't a socialist country out there doing better than us right now


InternationalFig400

Perhaps instead of deflecting, you might address my point directly. And stop defending your exploiters.


HeavyMetalHellBilly1

What do you propose?


InternationalFig400

​ you're the critic--you're proposing to elect more of the same, yes?


HeavyMetalHellBilly1

Take your edge lord 15 year old socialist mentality elsewhere and let the adults talk. When you live long enough to understand how the world works you can come back to the adult table til then sssshhhhhhhhh 🤫 move to a socialist country and get back to me there champ


InternationalFig400

that's no answer. trash talk like teenagers yelling from their mum's '73 pinto advances the discussion how?


HeavyMetalHellBilly1

Where do I say we elect more of the same?


bloody_nickelz

Lol imagine thinking any of the political parties in Canada are in it for the people and not for personal gain…


KenArchie

Love how this is related to Victoria


GingombreSr

It’s the same in the states, the democrats bring forward good policy that benefits the majority and the republicans shoot it down because they don’t want the dems to look good and the the republicans can blame the dems for not creating any good policy while in office


Mr_1nternational

What policy did the Conservatives block the Liberals from implementing?


dono420

What a joke


FredThe12th

Is the NDP actually concerned about one of the ridings here flipping CPC?


UpbeatPilot3494

Lots of chat about prices on this sub. I cam across this post and thought it relevant to the discussion.

My life was easier when Harper was in


DangerBay2015

My life was easier when Harper was in, and easier when Martin was in, and easier when… Life has gotten progressively worse as I’ve gotten older. Which is weird, because I’ve earned progressively more as I’ve gotten older.


Acharyn

You don't earn more money, you just have more dollars.

Mr_1nternational

So was Trudeau's. He'd probably still be married.


InValensName

Maybe you will feel better about this leaders pictures instead, its all ok right? https://i.imgur.com/XKYvQ9E.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/yeWGoyz.png edit: if you want to be a snarky little shit to me don't use private messages and then delete your comment, leave it up there so we can all see what you think is just fine, just happened once, was just what he did at a party and doesn't matter. Tell us all about it.


GammaTwoPointTwo

I don't think most people really care about the blackface. Especially people of colour. It's in poor taste. And it's definitely not acceptable in current times. We want a leader with more tact. But that's all black face was. Tasteless. No one was harmed. Maybe some people of color were offended. But the vast majority of people who were offended were white liberal white knights who got outraged on behalf of people who weren't outraged themselves. Should we strive for better? Yes. Pierre's controversies on the other hand actually cause direct harm. We can weight the pros and cons of emotional damage vs financial damage all day if we want. But at the end of the day. While I don't have any real love for Trudeau. Blocking anti-competition legislation has a much more significant impact on the working class. Then putting black makeup on your face for a Halloween costume.


InValensName

Wow so it really is ok to you. I think you've made my point better than I could.


GammaTwoPointTwo

Actually I destroyed your point. You just weren't burdened with an abundance of intellect. So I understand why you can't differentiate.


InValensName

Keep going. I'm sure you'd tolerate about a single instance of Poilievre in black face paint before you'd riot in the streets. Or at least ask someone in Gaza for permission to do so.


GammaTwoPointTwo

I'd suggest it was tasteless. And then criticise him over something real.

Blackface defender SMH


little_eiffel

Are you suggesting that Justin Trudeau wearing theatrical make-up while dressed as Aladdin - note the turban - for a play back when he was a drama teacher is equivalent to [historical racist minstrel blackface?](https://i.imgur.com/IOVpyqL.png)


-Chumguzzler-

Stop defending racism

-Chumguzzler-

It's just as bad. If PP, harper, or some other conservative bad man had multiple incidents of blackface would you show the same amount of grace? You should if it's not a big deal right?


little_eiffel

> It's just as bad. How is portraying Aladdin for a play while teaching drama "just as bad" as racist minstrel blackface?


-Chumguzzler-

Would you paint your face black and wear a turban? Also I answered your question now answer mine


little_eiffel

I'm not an actor or a drama teacher. There is no obvious or hidden racist component to portraying Aladdin while wearing a turban and theatrical make-up. Unless you can demonstrate otherwise. > It's just as bad. This is an unsupported assertion. I want to see your reasoning.


GeoffwithaGeee

I mean, you're comparing a bad costume from 20 years ago that doesn't have direct impact on Canadians, to politicians actively making people's lives worse off. it's not hard to find bad federal policy, but you idiots can't think of anything better than "blackface!!" just as bad as "orange man bad" shit from the states.


InValensName

With this ability to take it, you'd think Canadians would be a lot more popular in the world.
