Justin Trudeau Suggests He Would Raise Taxes For The Wealthy, Corporations







anyway, back to real stuff...

Worse part about Trudeau's win? Uninformed voters parroting his talking points as facts without a clue of what they even mean.

Fully 50% of callers into cknw on “what should liberals do first?” Aren’t even items the liberals promised. #lowinformationvoters

more real stuff:


Obama Campaign Team Hands Canada Over to the Lib-Left

The Province of Ontario with twice the debt of California making it now the world’s most indebted sub-sovereign borrower, saddled Canada with its first lib-left government in more than a decade in elections tonight.

Prime Minister Elect Justin Trudeau’s friendship with the high spending Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynn is a matter of public record. Ontario has a whopping $307 billion in bond debt; spends less per person on delivering service than any other province in Canada, yet still has a higher annual operating deficit.

None of this has bothered Canada’s new Liberal prime minister.

Tonight was the Land of the Maple Leaf’s 2008, and the champagne corks must be popping at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) who have been promised more financial support from a Liberal Government than the $1 billion a year subsidy from taxpayers they were getting under the Stephen Harper Conservatives.

With Trudeau as prime minister the only jobs available will be for CBC reporters rather than main-street Canadians.

The cult of celebrity always finds its victims among the average.

A gloating CBC credited the Obama Ground Team sent to Canada last year to ensure election victory for the Liberals in tonight’s outcome. Members of Obama’s election team—who revolutionized data mining for political campaigns—shared it with Trudeau, and the rest is now history.

That's pretty pathetic when you think about it. I remember hearing about this when the Obama Ground Team went to Canada to take over the campaign.

The Libs had to hand over their campaign to the Americans in order to win.

Will the saltiness ever end? You must be close to running out of tissues.

Conbots chose to shut the door on proportional representation.

Karma's a bitch.


I think I can hear Loc crying from here.

Who cares! The social conservatives have been neutered for the time being anyway. It's a day of celebration. Now, hopefully the Conservatives can get their collective heads out of their rears and elect a good fiscal conservative leader instead of a tard like they've had for the last decade. If they do, Justin shouldn't be too hard to beat next time.
