Canada

It is wartime, anyone not aware of this is dangerous.

I’m getting increasingly uncomfortable with François-Philippe Champagne’s record... There may not be proof of personal corruption, but there are enough conflict-of-interest and oversight concerns that people should be paying closer attention: the Alto situation involving his partner, federal funding received by his father’s company while a conflict screen was supposedly in place, and the massive SDTC governance failure under his department.

Now the government is eliminating the Underused Housing Tax and the luxury tax on private aircraft and expensive vessels.

Who benefits from that? Foreign owners of underused Canadian homes, wealthy buyers of private planes and yachts, and the industries selling those assets. Ordinary Canadians receive little or no direct benefit, while the government gives up hundreds of millions in revenue.

It is wartime.

This is scratch kick and bite time.

The USA literally declared economic warfare on Canada, and made multiple threats to Canadian sovereignty.

How is that anything but a war-level action?

Canada is acting out of survival. Like an abused wife, we are doing everything we can to get out the door, while keeping a smile on to placate to this egomaniac in the Whitehouse.

If he was governing like it's wartime, where's the explosion of social and affordable housing?

Not a fan of him but imo his best quality is being reasonable on an international stage.

Still think Trudeau was better
