This almost seems like a repeat of the Paul Martin years. Carney has taken over a badly wounded Liberal party and is trying to astroturf his way back to popularity.

Except that didn’t Chretian (with Martin as his finance minister) actually balance the budget. Remaining balanced for a year or two of Harper before it wasn’t balanced.

Paul Martin seemed like a decent accounting guy, it was just the Liberal party was in a death spiral when he took office and he had the charisma of a dead fish.

Alternatively, history says we can also just appoint Japanese megaracists to run everything. I'm also willing to give this a shot. The tagline will be this, "From the nation that brought you anime and mario, comes a real blast from the past in the styling of General Tojo Hideki. If it based, nah, it's king.'"

Mighty bullet trains replacing every VIA shitbox, crime problems solved instantly, Pornhub replaced by JAVhub, Your local 7/11's will be clean, orderly and stocked like a trip 100 years into the future. $11 a night netcafes to sleep at if you want to go on the lamb or explore the country. Love Hotels... Geisha...

You may have to eat squigly things now and then but it's that or eating bugs with Liberals in charge.

He was a classic political nemesis to Chretien. Like Churchill said 'The opposition occupies the benches in front of you, but the enemy sits behind you'. Just anodda Laurentian trust fund brat that "put his assets into a blind trust" while refusing to disclose how much business his shipping business did with the federal government. T-minus 63 days until we hear Carney's "blind trust" song and dance. But credit to Paul Martin he wasn't on his hands and knees sucking off the US President before even taking office while the entire Canadian media apparatus praised him in lock-step for being so tough.
 
Yay higher beer prices when alcohol is the only thing that helps with living in this dystopian hellhole.

Also Steamwhistle is Shit beer, I don't understand the hype.

I might reside in Canada when I'm not traveling, but i wouldn't exactly say I am not exactly excited at the prospect of announcing to the world that I am Canadian. I am more embarrassed and ashamed of what has happened to a formerly great nation and proclaiming myself as a Canadian gets harder with every passing day.

It's hard to imagine a pre-Trudeau era where Canadian 20-somethings were all instructed to sew a Canadian flag on to their backpacks before traveling overseas to specifically differentiate themselves from those boorish hated American backpackers with a similar accent.

I was certainly guilty of it myself amateurishly trying to affix a dollar store leaf patch the night before departure.

CBSA starts enforcing 25% tariff on cross-border Canadian grocery shoppers

Apparently the Canadian border guards have been instructed to pull over and search Canadians admitting they bought groceries in the US.

As I read it, this mostly affects same day travelers that don't qualify for the normal 24 & 48 hours personal exemptions.

ie. If you are abroad for >24 hours and stay within personal limits, tariffs don't apply. But same day border jumpers in frontier towns are fucked.

There's also the added chaos that the border guards are supposed to adjudicate tariffs based on country of origin, not nation of purchase.

So your sweatshop Bangladeshi t-shirt bought at Walmart is fine, but buying any groceries grown in the US of A get another 25% markup in addition to the awful currency exchange.

I mean hey, there's always weed, that's pretty Canadian too. Cheap as fuck if you're not getting absolutely lit every day, an eighth of the average OCS product can last a non-stoner for a month or more sometimes. I know weed culture is retarded but if you really need something to help chill out after work, maybe get a cheap dry herb vape and some flower. Just don't go full Cheech and Chong.

Weed is for Niggers, Booze is the White man's drug
 
Weed, darts and booze can be great and all. But I think now more than ever would be the time to seriously shake a bad/costly habit. This is coming from an alcoholic-chronic weed smoker.
Sounds fucking nuts but nows the time to take on some of this stress and try to funnel it to something gainful.
It's my new goal this year. Just any attempt to save money rn might be important. At least that's how I'm feeling rn.
 
If Canadians vote for Mark Carney because "fuck le america we r Canadian patriots" even though he's in the party that told all Canadians to not wave their flags a couple of years ago and that Canada will be the "first post-national state", I will have to assume Canadian voters are dumber than American voters and that they are even more easily manipulated by propaganda than their neighbors south.
 
When polls don't say what I want them to: "fake and gay 😭"
Something that you notice when you conduct these polls is how rude and poor conservatives are lul

I haven't heard anything about elections other then the NDP will refuse to vote for them

Putting the maple leaf on you backpack or suitcase worked when people respected out county, but Canada is a laughing stock of the world at this point.

I had a family member that was backpacking across New Zealand and he was hiking alongside a highway and a Maori bike gang passed him (for some reason NZ has a bunch of Maori bike gangs that terrorize certain areas in NZ) and they doubled back and they where going to mug him cuz they though he was one of those rich American's that pretend they are poor when the travel. He had a maple leaf on his backpack so they instead offered to take him to a bar for drinks and then drove him 20km to the next town.

Also fuck Canadian border agents, they don't care when people come here illegally and they are instead literally robbing Canadian citizens because we can't afford to "buy Canadian". Maybe I would buy Canadian if the government didn't take half of what I earned. I'm building up an American V8 engine to chuck in my car for when I am home and the only good parts are made in America. Maybe if the Canadian government hadn't killed our auto industry, or literally any other revenue source other than lumber and tourism more people might actually buy Canadian.
 
WTF?! As if we didn't have enough troubles.

Canada has agreed to fund woke programs abandoned by USAID. As the nation grapples with a barely functioning government and cost of living crisis, the Canadian government is funding what it believes to be a top priority – implementing LGBTQ programs in a Muslim nation.

Canada’s Minister of International Development, Ahmed Hussen, announced that the government would send C$272.1 million to Bangladesh and the Indo-Pacific region. “Canada continues to fiercely strengthen our long-lasting friendship with Bangladesh and the wider Indo-Pacific region with our long-standing people-to-people ties,” Hussen said in a statement. “By supporting vulnerable communities’ healthcare services, empowering women and addressing climate change, we are creating a brighter tomorrow for the global community.”
No need to guess how Bangladesh will thank us.
 
Also Steamwhistle is Shit beer, I don't understand the hype.

At least with Sleeman they put out that "Railside" concoction and it came with a whacky story of them making a beer from mixing the shit they found growing in the neighboring rail yard in Guelph and employees liked it so muh they kept making it as a side thing for themselves. Bullshit clever marketing? I don't care, it tasted interesting which is basically a crime now.

Enter Steamwhistle, started by rich trust fund kids with daddy's money from the Sleeman buyout. Your typical by-the-bootstraps Toronto Canadian success story of someone giving junior and his friends many metric shit-ton of money and then aquiring highly valuable *highly valuable* CP rail property in Toronto, by the lake, and actually owned by the city to make their tard swill. With daddy's expertise and daddy's connections.

Retard public will consume anything and believe it to be good without going "hey this actually sucks" because no one from politburo has given them the permission to do so. It's pushed hard and forced onto the public because its all the old players and their families and family money. Pushed super hard in Toronto at bars and GTA, all over Ontario really. Was very cheap for bars and restaurants to carry so profit margin is there its surprising they even bothered to carry anything else.

Maybe I'm a retard for drawing political parallels but since healthcare is nothing to brag about anymore, booze has replaced healthcare as the highest political priority and most political thing in Canada right now especially vs. the USA. The mentality is a mirror. Tarrif war was nearly won overnight apparently on Reddit when the LCBO paid overtime to their DEI crews to black over and shrink wrap some boxes of US booze and leave them in the middle of stores for photo-ops and propaganda purposes. Why not dump them out Elliot Ness style like you have some balls? But, wasting precious hard liqour is a hard line and too upsetting to Canadians especially the addled boomers. Believe me, they'll care more about US booze down the drain than their own country, culture, healthcare, children or grandchildren going down the drain.

Anyway I digress. tldr; I'd rather drink Bud Light troon drink or the shit my Balkan war crimnial neighbor makes in his basement thats about 8-9% and tastes like at least a 10% chance of blindness.

All the flower vaporizers I see are like $500 and up and those are questionable ones, where are you shopping homie?
 
I refer you to my previous post about ekos
YOUR POST is your reference :story: I'm pretty sure that January 20 is not March 14th dumbass. Cpc support is going down and they are currently neck and neck with the liberals. Really??? :story:
Here's a more complete picture, to showcase how dishonest you are for answering my comment from yesterday with January's stats.

But what more could one expect from a site full of Trump bootlicking cons... and Americans :story:

The point of my post was to show the tweet underneath the stats. Frank graves is the CEO of EKOS. If the CEO of the company has a bias against the Conservatives then they cannot be trusted to give honest data.
EDIT: oh wow another retarded harpy from the man hate thread
