Yeah, I saw that too. I also heard once of some rumors then Sophie and Justin was on the verge of divorce if they didn't already.

I don't really know much about Canadian politics but they both come across as such phony idiots. Trudeau was in Poland last year and was fake crying when coming to see Ukrainian refugees and had a photographer with him who made sure to capture Justine's fake tears. Fucking actor.

They have these things planned out to the minute. In some cases they have little marks of tape on the ground so that they'll be standing in the right spot. This shot was planned, seriously who keeps Kleenex in a pocket?
 
None of the facial muscles associated with the feeling of genuine emotion, such as sadness, grief, and empathy are seen activated in those photos. If he was actually experiencing those emotions which would cause him to shed a tear, his mouth would be pulled into a frown, and the frontalis muscles would pull the muscles under the inner side of his eyebrows back/up, yielding the characteristic "I'm sad because I'm empathizing with you" look. That isn't present in the eye dabbing Trudeau photos.

She comes from a very rich family, and was on the Quebec version of TMZ for a while. So she had like this limited celebrity status in Quebec. This was at the time they were trying to make them look like a power couple. She was gonna be Canada's Jackie Kennedy, except she's massively annoying, and is kind of a bitch to everyone.

This dates back to pre-pandemic times but she was well thought of by the staff at her favourite Ottawa restaurant, Fraser Cafe, where she'd dine quite often. Would even leave her bodyguard(s) outside. Justin never went with her.

Don't forget that Justin is a theatre kid and former drama teacher, it's not surprising that he knows how to cry on command. He's literally an actor.

Here's a video of him showing off another one of his theatre tricks:
People will repost that video and comment on how relatable and quirky Justin is without stopping to consider the implications of having an actor as a world leader. He's insincere and untrustworthy.

Yes in Newfoundland last year the provincial Liberals gave everyone 500 dollars for some reason. Cost like 200 million dollars, which could have been better spent actually making services not suck enormous cock and fixing our 1970s Soviet Union quality roads. I am genuinely of the opinion that a majority of Canadians are actually retarded enough to believe that these one time payments accomplish something other than garnering voter favorability. Sure it boosts consumer spending to some degree in the extreme short-term but I can't really see how it's that big of a boon

It's really fucking weird how the province went from teetering on the brink of bankruptcy to throwing money around inside of three years. My theory is the government has been trying to increase immigration and this has appeased lenders.

Unemployment rate here is just under 9% now. The lowest it's been in like 50 years.

Yes, you read that right. This is the first time unemployment has not been in double digits in Newfoundland in living memory. The poor fuckers who immigrated here, man lol

That is Bill C-27 I believe. They wanted Google and Facebook to pay Canadian publishers extra money, because "hurrr Canadian content." Bill C-17 was the one for YouTube in which they, again, wanted to promote Canadian content no one watches. The CBC was bailed out for $600 million I think (or billion). They all deserve to burn.

Edit on the fuel tax. This is on top of the carbon tax, which was increased this year. A tax on a tax on a tax.
In seven years, when the regulation is in full force, the federal government estimates the measure to add between 6 to 13 cents per litre of gasoline. Price impacts in the earlier years of the policy are expected to be minimal.
Similarly, Advanced Biofuels Canada estimates, based on real world data, that the Clean Fuel Regulations would add around 9 cents per litre to the cost of gasoline and diesel in Canada by 2030

Same as California and the EU: they want a full ban on l gas powered vehicles, without realizing we do not have the infrastructure and without answering how we can charge them in -30 C weather .

From here.

Increasing the carbon tax after a 'grocery' rebate. Peak Canada.

The rebate doesn't mean jackshit if food prices keep going up. It may sound like socialist cope but our grocery chains here have been caught artificially inflating prices on things like bread. They do it for meat, too. $24/lb for meat in one store. Not fucking kidding.
