Except this isn't normal times, and the government's current spending and propping up of businesses proves that.

Prior to Covid I don't think anyone was calling for Federal help for the Oil Patch, instead they were asking for noxious poison pen legislation like 48 and 69 to be changed and adjusted.

The Covid pandemic means that the real rules of "capitalism no longer apply". On top of that with the amount of tax revenue that has been supplied to the government by the Oil Patch should literally mean that when times are unusual so to speak like this that the government should provide a safety net. I mean Trudeau was prepared to break the law to preserve jobs in Quebec. During this Crisis he was willing to give over a half billion to the Arts and support businesses that he likes.

His 1.8 billion for well clean up is nice but insufficient and did nothing for companies in terms of capitalization and survival assistance. Even after he and his incompetent Finance Minister sat there weeks ago and said support and help was coming in days and weeks.

Right now, the Government by ducking dodging diving and ducking on that commitment and creating even more uncertainty and investment bleed in Canada is literally cutting off his nose to spite his face as he's going to see a pretty massive reduction in tax revenue from a personal and corporate perspective while seeing a massive increase in the costs of UI and CERB.

Again, these are not usual times, so what your saying doesn't have relevance.
