Actually, it's the other way around but hey, you believe what you want. Conservatives believe in both! WOW bet you didn't realize that did yuh?

Yes, lecture me on American politics. A topic you know so much better than I do.
How many Presidential election have you voted in?
The Housing Agency is more of a Bubble's Garden Shed Housing Project Initiative.
"Here's your downgraded Canadian dream, peasants."
I'm not "lecturing" you on anything. But believe what you want. See, that's the difference between a Progressive & a Conservative. We allow & encourage discussions of various POV's; Progressives despise discussions because they have nothing to offer. It is what it is & Conservatives must learn to fight against the vile nature of the Progressives.
I will. Until Donny Dipshit outlaws it.
I know. I'm conservative. The progressives never get it right because even their best ideas never get enough traction to produce more than half measures.
Take racial discrimination in education, employment, and housing, for example. The "progressives" passed a law under which a victim of such discrimination could sue, no doubt paying for his lawyer with the salary he's not getting.
The proper solution is to make racial discrimination (just one example, extend to other forms of discrimination) a crime, and bring the resources of the state into punishing it. See, as it is now, an employer or landlord has to calculate the likelihood he'll be sued by a poor person. I'm sure that just scares the boots off him. Now, imagine if he had to contemplate the FBI coming after him for criminal discrimination.
Hmmm…perhaps you all need some human rights tribunals because they’re just so…awesome. You can already borrow the template from Canada. Yes I’m being facetious.
In these human rights tribunal in Canada, the onus isn’t upon the state to prove that somebody is guilty, but upon the accused to prove that they’re not guilty at their own cost, at zero cost to the accuser, and potentially significant financial reward to the accusers. Good times, and it makes being actually guilty potentially irrelevant.
Carney said during the Liberal leadership race that the Canadian economy was in trouble long before Trump became president — specifically criticizing the Trudeau government for allowing immigration to get out of control and for increasing the operating spending of the federal government by 9% annually.
Carney has promised to decrease the hike in the operating expenditures of the federal government — meaning the cost of such things as paying the public service — to less than 2% annually, and to balance that budget within three years.
But to achieve this, he’s changing the way the government reports on its annual deficits and debt in the Liberal budget to be delivered on Nov. 4?

Going forward, the federal government will distinguish its operating expenses from capital spending on things such as “nation building” projects, which Carney describes as investments that create assets rather than operating costs.
But whatever he calls it, it’s going to be financed by bigger annual deficits and higher public debt that all has to be paid back, eventually, with interest.

Acting Parliamentary Budget Officer Jason Jacques has described the anticipated future spending and debt levels of the Carney government in its upcoming budget as “shocking,” “alarming,” “stupefying” and “unsustainable.”
He warned the federal budget on Nov. 4 is expected to abandon previous fiscal anchors the Liberals set for themselves, including that annual deficits would be no higher than 1% of Canada’s GDP and that the debt-to-GDP ratio would decrease over time, etc…
