The end of the turd

[furrowtickler]

At least Chrétien Martin et al. were/are capable businessmen, lawyers, and seasoned in realpolitik. The dumpster fire now does not have real world experience like that and is running more on ideology. Pragmatism is dead from the shoulders up here. Throw in the influence from the NDP in this past govt is akin to Broadbent holding Trudeau captive. Unless inroads are made in the 905 and 416, there will be another minority. A majority for the liberals looks unlikely so far but there is still time for the red machine to pull something out. Only thing which could really hurt the liberals is if another black swan pops up.

Absolutely agree

If you include the money sent to United Nations agencies as well as “helping other countries deal with climate change” trudeau’s expenditure on foreign aid is around $10 billion rather than the $6 billion you are referring to. That is closer to 6% of gni than the 3% you were touting.

So you feel you can call me out for not providing a 2020 chart with 2020 data included yet you base your claim on a 2017 opinion article with no details on where the figures came from? And if you are adding in UN contributions for Trudeau, do tell what was the amount Harper contributed through the UN if you are going to compare?

And as for Harper, he spent his term as prime minister cutting foreign aid from the previous 2 liberal prime ministers. As the withdrawal from Afghanistan shows, you can not just pull out of a country once you are there. You have to wean them off slowly and responsibly.

Tax payers money wasted on that IN seat by Trudeau was completely worth booting him from PM . He never stood a chance and pranced around throwing your kids and grandkids futures away for nothing

All I know is that Canada has a failed experiment in politics right now

A failed drama teacher that’s never had to work for a dime in his life and a journalist running a nation into the ground .
This needs to change

thats good tho , right chuck, dml ?leaving the weapons for the slaughtering crew??????????????

Why are you asking me? I have not posted anything about the Afghanistan, the withdrawal, or equipment abandonment on this thread or any thread. What are you trying to insinuate by dragging me into this? Can't you provide your own thoughts on any subject instead of trying to put words into someone else's mouth. If you think it is good, leave it at that. I certainly don't feel that way!
