The same poll that the Liberal gov used last December to pat themselves on the back, is now reporting against them. That is a pretty big turd that you stepped in, mentalfloss.
Canadians Say Country Heading in Wrong Direction

Your problem is, you don't understand that the poll was relevant and factual then. Now it's extremely misleading and says nothing about the present govt.
That's how all polls work.
The economy, foreign policy, trudOWE got elected because he promised to legalize pot. Nothing else. How much progress has been made on that file? Right now pot dispensaries are still being raided and denied business licences. Not what was promised during the campaign. Too bad we don't have recall legislation in Canada.
Responsible Canadians, like me, won't wait for goverment approval, the private sector will step up to the plate as usual.
What's the matter, the rest too factual for you to deny??

More than 200,000 North American immigrants live in Israel. There has been a steady flow of immigration from North America since Israel’s inception in 1948.[79][80]
Several thousand American Jews moved to Mandate Palestine before the State of Israel was established. From Israel's establishment in 1948 to the Six-Day War in 1967, aliyah from the United States and Canada was minimal. In the 1950s, 6,000 North American Jews arrived in Israel, of whom all but 1,000 returned.
Record numbers arrived in the late 1960s after the Six-Day War, and in the 1970s. Between 1967 and 1973, 60,000 North American Jews immigrated to Israel. However, many of them later returned to their original countries.[81][82]
Like Western European immigrants, North Americans tend to immigrate to Israel more for religious, ideological, and political purposes, and not financial or security ones.[83] Many immigrants began arriving in Israel after the First and Second Intifada, with a total of 3,052 arriving in 2005 — the highest number since 1983.[84]
Nefesh B'Nefesh, founded in 2002 by Rabbi Yehoshua Fass and Tony Gelbart, works to encourage Aliyah from North America and the UK by providing financial assistance, employment services and streamlined governmental procedures. Nefesh B’Nefesh works in cooperation with the Jewish Agency and the Israeli Government in increasing the numbers of North American and British immigrants.
Following the Global Financial Crisis in the late 2000s, American Jewish immigration to Israel rose. This wave of immigration was triggered by Israel's lower unemployment rate, combined with financial incentives offered to new Jewish immigrants. In 2009, aliyah was at its highest in 36 years, with 3,324 North American Jews making aliyah.[85]

Genetic Testing
In 2013, the office of the Prime Minister of Israel announced that some people "wishing to immigrate to Israel could be subjected to DNA testing to prove their Jewishness". A Foreign Ministry spokesman said genetic testing program is based on the recommendations of Nativ, an Israeli government organization that has helped Jews from Russia and rest of the former Soviet Union with Aliyah since the 1950s.[95]

Do you have the results of your test bear?

You definitely have that right!
The question now..................how to salvage the situation!Capitalism is Just a Story
How many of us have a sneaking suspicion that something pretty fundamental is going wrong in the world? We keep hearing about the potentially devastating consequences of climate change but we are pumping more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every single year. We are forced into economic crisis after economic crisis and the only people who aren’t brought to their knees are those that cause it. In fact, they often just get richer and more powerful while the rest of us work harder and harder for less reward. Politicians all say the same basic thing. No one, it seems, is offering anything that is really different. The whole operating system is somehow wrong, but also somehow inevitable. Nothing can really be changed because this is just how things are.
At least, that’s what we’re told, and how it can feel. But this way of living – our system of modern capitalism – is just a story. And this story is not the only one there is. It’s not inherent within us. It was invented by human beings, and so human beings can change it.
But in order to get there, we first have to face up to some difficult truths.

Are you totally insane?
What lies?
The economy is in the toilet. Trudeau has done NOTHING, nothing at all since the election except smile for the camera and spend money OUT OF THE COUNTRY! And talk, talk, talk about what they are GOING to do.
Those are not lies. They are facts.
Oh yes, he has promoted women and minorities, I should say 'patronized' them, by indicating that they are powerless to better themselves unless HE helps them. His blathering about equality does more to divide the country than to unify it.
Who the hell is talking about Israel and Israelites? This is about Canada and Canadians, numbskull!
Oh another thing he has done, kept his promise to pull Canada out of the bombing mission against the advice of our allies and wartime veterans who know what they are talking about.
Trudeau is a PC idiot quibbling about whether combat is combat or not as if it makes a difference what you call it.
He is so dumb he hasn't even fully understood yet that all the promises he made were/are impossible to keep.
I hope he enjoys his 4 years of 'sunny ways' because when his pot legalization and his First Nations Unity plans fail, he's going to lose most of his supporters. It's a sure as hell thing the rest of us won't be enjoying it.
