We already do, hence the ability to choose alternative.

We buy half of all mortgage bonds in Canada to artificially depress the currency to prop up asset prices for instance, it would be nice to have competition in currency to prevent such manipulation that benefit the rich.

Theyre literally paid out of the profits. You're spouting nonsense.

It only benefits corporations huh, do you not work for a corporation yourself?

Its an export of a product, which derives tax revenue, which derives income taxes, which results in government programs to help the poor. Pretending like its not vital in our ecosystem is silly, its our food source, it provides us building materials, corporate exports give your dollar value and are the red blood cells of society.

Wow, theyre prioritizing the well being of the country over the environment and indigenous people?

Its like they're finally trying to keep us in a first world standard of living; because they were about to be destroyed as a party entirely if they did not.

Theres a reason every left leaning government runs massive deficits and never funds a single program with taxes, you get voted out instantly if you do raise taxes. Therefore there seems to be a slow erosion of everything as inflation eats up salaries whether its left or the right.

Dont they interfere in all union strikes?

That was likely a big reason why the NDP got wiped out.

He meant it, he's just rolling it back for optics. The average conservative voter in Ontario is likely to agree with his initial comment.

As an old home owner or what?

Food bank usage is way up, housing is crisis levels, youth unemployment is nearing 20%. At least the last time the youth had it this bad housing was still affordable.

Its called capital shallowing. We need growth that can be absorbed organically, like what existed prior to the Liberals, but its being done desperately to hide falling GDP.

Mass immigration to depress salaries for rich oligarchs and land holders seems to be destroying Canada far faster.

Because of wage suppression via mass immigration in order to forcefully invert the Phillips curve after the BoC did QE.

Mao also had famines while having plenty of food being produced.
