Justin Trudeau, Tom Mulcair visit Montreal food banks

People are starting to wake up to the truth now.

Klein's policies got us into this mess | Calgary Herald

Ralph Klien ran the Alberta budget like everyone should at home.. you don't spend what you don't have..

I guess you're just one pay check from homelessness, or still living in your mothers basement by the way you want to spend money.

Nope.

And budgeting like Ralph landed you guys in this spot.

 

[B00Mer]

Nope.

And budgeting like Ralph landed you guys in this spot.

Explain how you see that..

Personally, I don't have ANY debts.. loans, etc. just minimum monthly expenses for living. Cable bill, phone bill, and Internet Bill. Everything is paid off in full.

That is the way people should balance a budget.

...and a savings for emergency and other things, travel, vacation in Cuba, Europe, Asia.

Sure I have a Credit Card, if I ever use it.. the minute I get the bill, I pay it off in full.

Yes, just like the Calgary Herald and National Post.

...and examines excrement for pearls of wisdom. He finds nothing.

The NDP will run down their list of who to blame, 1st attack the dead, they can't fight back, then Harper, then George W. Bush..

It's the Liberal way, there's always someone else to blame.

... he says while blaming everything on Obama, Trudeau and Notley - it's the conbot way.

good for them. I will try to believe that it was for the good of the poor and not a photo-op.

Do you know whether or not Obama f-cked Canada over or not?

I think Notley is coming face to face with a few surprises!

Do you know whether or not Obama f-cked Canada over or not?

I don't think Obama can be blamed for that.

You believe in the tooth fairy and santa clause too. :lol:

Blamed for what? What do you think he didn't do?

 

[mentalfloss]

Nope!

 

[JLM]

F**ked Canada up!

 

[petros]

We've been under economic attack since 08.

I agree with giving credit where credit is due while keeping in mind that these guys know how to create a good impression!



That's a little harsh to my way of thinking. Most folks can afford to be charitable from time to time, while certainly not being able to afford it on an ongoing basis (at least I can't). Xmas is a time of year when emotions run rampant and sadness and despondency are at a peak so I think most compassionate people would choose to donate at this time. Normal people want to see the children enjoy Xmas.

It costs exactly zero dollars to volunteer. Soup kitchens are open all year round, not just Christmas. I'm not saying people should spend every free second volunteering, but the once a year "time to give a damn" charitable feelings are basically guilt assuaging moments for many and photo ops for politicians.
Trudeau's is the latter. The current budget contains SFA for poor and homeless Canadians while at least $1 billion is being spent on importing tens of thousands of homeless people from other countries, over and above our normal annual intake. Which makes this particular photo op rather galling.

If we paid for their drugs, alcohol and tobacco as well as housing and food which is covered by welfare would it end homelessness?
