The last time a finance minister disagreed with the prime minister on spending — Bill Morneau on COVID benefit levels — Trudeau resolved that Ottawa wasn’t big enough for both of them. Freeland appears to be under similar pressure, despite the affinity the prime minister is said to feel for...

If you are one of the nearly 19-million working Canadians expecting to receive a $250 cheque from the Liberal government in the new year, don’t spend the money just yet. Sources have told National Post that Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland will reverse the government’s position on the...

Can we make bets? My max is a $0.05 Canadian Peso coin, & I’d like to go with falling off the tightrope and landing in front of the moving bus, ‘cuz it’s 2015-ish…😉 Double or nothing, it’ll be called a communications issue.

Religious Ideology, with a side of real estate.

That’ll potentially bite us in the ass. But instead… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independence_Day_(United_States) Now we’re shocked at Trump? Seriously?

“I would move away from that, and think about the other places that we have a mutual interest in moving forward,” Morneau told CTV’s Question Period host Vassy Kapelos in an interview airing Sunday. “And do that in a way that's calm and that recognizes that we need to have an enduring ability to...

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland is back to the self-grope hand gestures so I don’t know if that’s a good thing or a bad thing. Freeland’s fiscal update will face close scrutiny Monday, with financial markets and political observers watching to see if she can stick to her promises while...

You know, until Oct 7th, 2023 your chunk of the world was just background in movies & books to me. Since then I’ve given myself a crash course in that neighbourhood. What I’ve learned is that there’s “at least” two sides to every story, & it’s especially apt in this situation. Can you, in...

Post #42. There’s a link. The phrase about choice deals with Maid & Vaccinations also which are personal autonomous adult decisions. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_body,_my_choice (Scroll down to “use outside feminist issues”) It’s Wikipedia. If you don’t agree with it, I believe you can go in...

You’re the only one talking about rape in a thread about vaccinations. I was talking about choice. End-of-life care can be seen through "My body, my choice". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_body,_my_choice

X 5,000,000 people that are expected to leave in the next year? That sounds like an entire industry. One that will be run by government bureaucracy.

I can’t speak for the last decade, but when my ex daughter-in-law moved to Canada, in no uncertain terms that’s how things were explained to her. She didn’t come in as a refugee from Utah, but worked hard to get her landed immigrant status, & eventually will be a citizen. She was told that if...

Holy Hell. Ok. Sure. Whatever. I hear you. How about mandatory vaccinations for children, and adults whom assumably are of age to make adult decisions…make their own decisions in a “My Body, My Choice” sort’a way once they are….legally adults….old enough to serve in the military and vote and be...

Good, I guess. Is that enough?

What? Honestly, Because I think vaccines are a good thing, & I believe in individual choice, I want to go back to 1950’s & children in Iron Lungs? I did my homework, with the available info at the time, & got my two Covid shots & three boosters. It was my choice.

The federal government’s fall economic statement will be tabled on Dec. 16, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland said on Monday. Then Parliament breaks for the winter holiday the very next day. http://www.youtube.com/shorts/nEGghDtrO9U “I look forward to presenting the next steps in our economic...

If they don’t…& Canada is 41 million people include the 5 million in question…that’s more that 12% of the entire population of the country. Call it 1 in 8 people in the nation. I’m just thinking of the logistics involved in the cleanup for the adults after the NDP/Liberals & Liberal/NDPs are on...

….or not. If not, then what? …& if they don’t?

Mandated back, so what performance levels do you think they’ll be operating at? 1/2? 1/3? Treating the mail with tender love and care? This is doomed to not end well. The term “going postal” comes from…? What will the postal service be in Canada in a decade? Canadian Federal Labour Minister...
