      Why can't Canadians separate business from feelings?
      Or does the Internet create our own personal echo chamber? Instantly we go to extremes.

      Access to a standard of health care should be like lady justice, blind to lifestyle, as it would be race. But can't we all afford different lawyers?
      Any dairy discussion is wrapped solely in Quebec. Modernizing becomes like birth control to the Catholics. Any defense of status quo is debunked simply by the price of milk elsewhere. Tying in rural consolidation makes the discussion nonsensical.
      Doesn't affect my life but how does a 60 cow herd work only in one province? If you want to be like Europe then give all provinces the same sovereignty. And don't forget to keep a strong gdp to pay for it.

        Dare I even ask what would happen if guaranteed lifelong provincial transfer payments ended?

          And that is the key that is missing from all of the socialist wet dreams.

            Sounds like you are becoming aTrump/ RFK fan.

                To me that's like saying no matter how minor or intense the crime all perps get the same sentence.

                Ultimately, if we're not responsible for our own well being why should someone else be?

                I think I might be on a slippery slope...

                    Furrow you have obviously fallen for Trump's overheated lies about our border and drugs.

                    The fetanyl crisis is a healthcare crisis. PP wants to put all the addicts in jail with his stupid ideas about trafficking small amounts! That will solve nothing.

                    The "king pins" are not on the street shooting up. Only fools believe that crap.


                    Trump is a problem yes, but why ?
                    Fentanyl crisis is a healthcare crisis , but again why ?
                    Who are the 'king pins" ?

                    I watch the Canadian perspective not Trump ..... Your post is full of misleading liberal misinformation covering up a huge problem in Canada created by the liberals themselves...

                      Yeah Furrow you are falling for PP's simpletons slogans who is looking like Trump lite and spewing "Canada is broken" bullshit. Right out of the Trump playbook!

                      Trump is a problem because he is attacking our jobs and economy and wants to take us over! Get it?

                      Who does that after they signed a free trade agreement in their first term? It was "the best trade agreement" according to the senile duffer at the time!

                      Trumps initial justification for tarrifs was and is still bullshit.

                      Drugs are indeed a problem but if you are sincere about fixing the problems you don't threaten unrelated tarrifs.

                      Enforcement at the border hasn't on its own solved the problem at any time in the past. Otherwise the US would have fixed it long ago.

                      It will take many different approaches not just border enforcement.
