You want them getting corporate money.

I do, actually. Because the CBC reported on it.

Something a corporate owned media outlet would never do.

And because Trudeau shares your thoughts, we now pay more in interest payments on the National debt then we do for healthcare transfers.

Look at the US and even when Trump was gone the constant negative energy never went away.

I feel like that will continue here as well, you can't forget we will have idiots like Smith who will be screaming and yelling. PP won't go away even though he should.

Negative energy won't go away because we keep re-electing the same group of negative radical liberal politicians.

I was more thinking we could get underway building this country up now and for the future.

I have a question.

Why do you think Ontario votes Conservative in Provincial elections but Liberal in Federal elections?

Quite the jump from $18.4 million in CBC bonuses to $1.2 trillion in national debt (which is a multi-faceted issue, but old PP won't let you process that concept) four years after a global pandemic.

It's almost a puddle of piss next to the ocean if you do the math.

But I am confident that Pierre Poilievre's plan to reduce taxes on the wealthy and take away an objectively successful industrial carbon tax (which, by the way, was implemented by Stephen Harper) is not going to help us make those payments.

Guy who thinks the Liberals are negative, will happily vote for guy who has spent the last 10 years saying "Canada is broken".

I'm not sure you understand what the word radical means. The liberals are basically a centrist party.

Well I don't live in Ontario, and I'm not a Doug Ford fan, I think he is a hot mess, so I'm assuming the other choices are somehow worse? I couldn't even tell you who the other choices are.

Canada is so so broken, just look at this message board. If you don't think Canada is broken you must live under a rock. Every aspect gets worse everyday, and most of it is the liberal governments fault.

Ya they are so centrist that they stole all the NDP vote. The liberals are so far left that they have made the NDP and even the green party irrelevant. CPC is the most centrist party in Canada.

It seems lazy not to understand why.

I used to write articles and reviews for an american owned publication. It was a fun on-the-side thing for me, no real financial dependence, just a weekend thing. If you dug deep enough you might even find the ones I did.

The first few went pretty well.

But I'll never forget the last one I did.

It was an overall positive, but not glowing review of some $9,000 product.

I had some criticisms and some constructive feedback.

And they wanted the company I was reviewing the product for to become an advertiser for them.

The editor came in, removed key criticisms, and emphasized positive aspects. They also tweaked the numerical review to seem more positive.

What was ultimately published felt unrecognizable from what I had actually written.

I noped out of ever writing for them again, but if that was my livelyhood and career?

That, plus an old international affairs class at U of C where we were asked on a weekly basis to read multiple media sources of events, from locally owned to foreign owned, right wing to left wing, to really understand how very real bias is.

And this was BEFORE the days of modern fascist propaganda at the level of Fox News, Rebel News etc

Just so we are clear. The leader of the opposition should not criticize the incumbent?

Do you have a list of countries that aren’t broken?

Question for you. Do you view yourself and people similar to you as part of the problem, or is it just everyone else?

Yes please explain to me why anyone would want to keep the current government in power for 4 more years.

You must be ######ed. None of the Canadian parties are fascists. You honestly believe crap like that? Do you even know what that word means?
