My support for Carney was to keep PP out. Singh did not give me the confidence that he could do that. I still vote NDP at the provincial level (although my riding has been Conservative forever alas) - the federal NDP hasn’t really inspired much confidence but Marit is killing it at the provincial level in Ontario.
If you genuinely thought a Bloomberg/Brookfield international banker with a history of renovictions and exploitation of slave-like labor whose primary job was to hide the wealth of the 1% was better than Poilievre then I think you need to seriously reconsider your judgments.
The damage being done to the economy currently is going to be generational and the people that will face and feel it the most are going to be the poor and disadvantaged that nDP voters normally care about. With Poilievre you would have gotten some of the same things, such as an oil pipeline, but you would have also gotten a healthy economy that wouldn't been able to pay the needs of the week in the future
Instead an entire generation and probably too are going to grow up with a substandard life quality as a direct result of the liberal rule including Carney's over the last 11 years.
I strongly encourage you to sit back and think about your choices. Watch what happens over the next few years and watch what happens as we attempt to recover for that in the years to follow and watch who suffers.
What do you base this 'strong economy' bit on? As far as I can tell, Carneys taken most of PPs playbook out from under him.
What policies did PP propose that would've given us a "healthy economy"?
He's announced PP's policies but he never delivered on them. He's pretty good at announcing things people want to hear but he doesn't actually do any of it
PP entire career is just being contrarian to whatever liberal candidate he’s running against. Dudes never delivered anything in his life besides liberal party wins, lol. Stay delusional.
That's complete nonsense. And let's face it, because ideas are so bad why is mark carney running on them? 😆
Meanwhile under carney virtually every single metric is down and Canada's economy is on the same negative ballistic course as it was under Justin Trudeau
Are you aware of how bad Trudeau was for Alberta? He did a lot of damage and Carney is nowhere close to that bad
I'll give you that, although he's not much better. He's talking about the possibility of building a pipeline, Justin built a pipeline. And his price for doing that is a massive increase in carbon taxes for the oil fields which will make them far less competitive globally. So I don't know about the whole nowhere close business. He may not be as bad but I don't know that he's that far off
Trudeau did build an oil pipeline, but natural gas and oil sands projects were cancelled to focus on greener alternatives. Those would have been big for Alberta's economy.
Oh absolutely true, don't get me wrong I wasn't suggesting for real was in any way shape or form good for the Alberta economy or province. I was just pointing out that as bad as he was currently isn't substantially better
