    Pierre Poilievre

    EE Senate would be a start. The PR systems we have been presented with so far do not work for large rural ridings. They also give seats to "The Party" based on total number of votes. Pretty much eliminates independents. Then there is the problem of which ridings are going to have a party insider...

    Pierre Poilievre

    As it should be. Rural areas are where the money comes from. Now, dense population areas like GTA make decisions that have no effect on them, but decimate the economies of rural areas, of which city people have no clue and don't care. Take the EV mandate. Yes, they have their place, in the city...

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    That one is actually easy. Most of the old commie union leadership has retired. The newcomers have already gone through the job losses caused by delays in project starts. They are all well educated and have a much better grasp on economics than their predecessors. Only the fools still think...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Not a chance. I worked on the Kitamatt Smelter. My son worked on the LNG plant there. It takes years. Even taking an existing plant and moving it is a several year project. There is also the training of new staff to consider.

    The Tarriff Hype.

    After my initial thought of equal repressive tariffs, I have come to the conclusion they will hurt Canadians more than Americans, and put more money in the federal coffers for no good reason. I now feel that the best thing for us to do is avoid buying as many American products as possible, and...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Trump does not seem to have a firm grasp of the problems with moving all production to the US. You don't just go to Amazon and buy an automotive assembly line, or to the welfare office to find the kind of skilled labour required to run them. This is a decades long process. Same goes for building...

    President Trumps Mythical Canadian Water Faucet

    The simple solution to the Columbia River problem is to make Washington and Oregon into a province of Canada. Or at least a couple of miles South of the river to ensure control over nearby habitat and fishing. Then the entire river is Canadian, and no US government meddling is warranted We would...

    Ottawa to remove many federal exceptions from Canadian Free Trade Agreement

    That is exactly what Trump is hoping for. Naturally, the radical left will play into his hand and then claim they won.

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    This could be interesting. Caught a FB post that claimed a huge jump in the number of memberships sold by the Conservative Candidate in Carnage's chosen riding. It is entirely possible the Arya backers are not happy with having their chosen representative taken away from them, and plan on...

    Pierre Poilievre

    This is where the Pro Rep people make their point. Sort of. The problem is, they relate it to "The Party", as if we are voting for a party, not the individual candidate. I would like to see more independents win, but the system is rigged against them. And naturally, all the parties work together...

    Pierre Poilievre

    Wouldn't need more seats, just a weighted vote, like they do in Regional district votes. You won't find a riding with 1 million people anyway. All ridings have roughly the same number of people. It is the regional thing that fucks large rural ridings.When an area the size of Greater Toronto has...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Vote buying. In case you missed it, there is an election going on. Wannabe politicians have to be seen doing something. Right or wrong, or just plain stupid, is irrelevant.

    Canada’s Military current state & equipment

    There is no confusion. An agency is there to help you. A service is there to clean your pipes. Whether it is a brothel or the government, the service is the same.

    Canada’s Military current state & equipment

    People here piss and moan about high taxation because we get little to show for it. And generally 60% is pissed away administrating the other 40%. CRA has more employees than IRA, and we have about a tenth of your population.
