Are Eastern Canadians That Stupid?

Well chucky canadian debt per capita is worse than the usa and on top of that we have a govt shutting down our biggest generator of wealth (oil industry) while setting record deficit spending. What a crooked govt and yet morons like you live in a world of sunshine and lollipops and have no idea what this country will look like in 25 or 30 years from now.

Shutting down the oil industry? Oil is still being produced. The price is rising.

How does Germany have one of the strongest economies in the world that has a lot less natural resources than Canada, and imports most of its oil and still is the economic engine of Europe?

In Canada manufacturing is larger part of the GDP than mining, quarrying and oil and gas combined. Goods producing industries are a significantly bigger portion of the GDP than the service industries.

You are misinformed, exaggerating and you have no idea what this country looks like in the present, let alone 30 years in the future!

1 percent will save a farm after 100 years without a disaster and not taking inflation into account it is an awesome program. Oops my bad it's only 50 years cause we match that amount.

Do eastern farmers not get agri-invest?


It was cut from 3 percent to one percent.....like that will save a farm.....

Yes Eastern farmers and western farmers get handout just so they don't feel left out. The biggest farms who likely need it less, get the biggest share of this popular handout.

Yep it is a stupid government subsidized savings program that benefits well off farms who don't need it more than the small and starting farms who do need it.

Germany is a huge manufacturing country and have an efficient transportation system for their products. Speaking of Germany their green energy industry is on the verge of collapse if they don't continue to receive huge subsidies. As for our oil industry the prices are going up at the pumps it's not going up for the producers who are pumping the oil.

Services only move wealth around. They don't generate it.


How much of Canada's manufacturing is AG oil and forestry related?


Manufacturing adds value to a raw product. Raw product gives currency an underpinning.

Services can't support an economy which is why so many western states are in the predicament they are in.




As for forages comment about how those numbers don't make sense... Think about it.


A liberal may consider coming either NDP or conservative. A NDP may consider coming green. A conservative may consider voting liberal.

SF3,,,Are Eastern Canadians That Stupid?

Who doesn't like gravy? The Central and Maritime Canadians think they know where the gravy is coming from. In their minds it's coming from the Liberals and JT( better known a sock boy)!

In reality it's coming from Western Canada, and a great part from "that dirty oil and tar" !

We're still paying through the nose because of the delay in the transfer payment scheme, but in another year or two, that will change and the payments from the west will slow and maybe even stop.

Hopefully that will happen before the n4ext federal election.

Some of us wrote at enlightening the stupid masses...I won't hijack this thread but posted in a new thread a piece that I just sent in to a local paper.

How many mortgage brokers were AAA when the housing bubble burst? All them?

Nanos does polling for the CBC and CTV and seems to love Justin as much as Lisa LaFlamme.

We will see how accurate their polling is in 2019....if they surveyed a lot of unemployed takers or government workers in Toronto the polling is not surprising but if the poll included more makers and entrepreneurs we would see a different result.
