Will Canada ever recover ?

"What about provincial governments as they also have responsibility for the state of the country as they have significant impacts on healthcare, education, social programs, housing and their own tax levels"

Last time i checked... alberta is gonna run a budget surplus?

ugh your tone and comments even point to the fact that you are slowly ( and begrudgingly) starting to accept that the federal govt is very much the problem here and i notice a veryyy interest comment where you said the " pbo office says that the carbon tax accounts for slightly less than 1% inflation"...

Interesting because you were a few weeks ago, parroting trevor tombes analysis in the calgary papers that said carbon tax had only increased inflation by 0.6 %.
Bit of wiggle room there between 0.6 and 1%.


ive noticed a bit of a tone change in your posts here.. and i appreciate it. Maybe finally starting to see the light?

Hey what are you thoughts on.. well...basically... every single ndp candidate thats put their name in for the NDP leadership here in alberta saying that they want to essentially " scrap the carbon tax?"

Since trudeau got in he has sent huge amounts of taxpayers money to other countrys , while canadas food bank lineups and tent citys keep growing ever longer and bigger , please liberal suporters tell us how the mess will be fixed , pure garbage talking about what happened 10 or more years ago

Mulroney and Devine for that matter inherited a legacy of poor governance and the recessionary 80’s. Canada came off a string of craptacular minority governments both liberal and conservative which caused a lot of bad spending decisions. The Trudeau Broadbent coalition seen our debt balloon. Doesn’t that sound eerily familiar?

There should be a coup and these two losers should be tarred and feathered with their tampons in.

He was a way to progressive for the current antiscience, climate change denying, antiwoke, CPC yahoos!

C'mon UpChuck, why stop at only three buzzwords? You can do better then that.

You will have people thinking you're moving up to a grade 6 writing level... can't have your writing level outpace your cognitive level.

well trudeau and singh will go down in history as being by far worst ever , i include singh because he has kept trudeau in power

Mulroney for all his faults was one of the greenest and more progressive prime ministers.

He fought against acid rain, ozone depletion, apartheid.

He was a way to progressive for the current antiscience, climate change denying, antiwoke, CPC yahoos!

It was Jean Chretian and Paul Martin who reduced spending and the deficit after Brian Mulroney and Kim Campbell.

Chuck2 here is a good article for you to read. “Corbella: Brian Mulroney deserves even more credit than he is getting.” Covers how Mulroney reduced spending from $1.23 for every dollar brought in under P.E.T. to $.97 for every dollar brought in. I would say Brian Mulroney and his finance Minister Michael Wilson did a lot of the work and Chrétien got the credit.

Actually there is constructive history here. Justin’s father Pierre added a great deal to Canada’s national debt. I read an article recently that it took 16 years and the combined effort of Mulroney and Chrétien to right the ship after Pierre. Fixing the mess after Justin Trudeau will take longer in my opinion. Anyone who supports his legacy is in my opinion severely mentally challenged!!
