A liberal commercial with Trudeau promising to fix the home unaffordable problem…lol…meanwhile a Vancouver candidate of his has made millions flipping homes and many flipped in less than a year.
Trudeau is high on promises and very low on delivery…Give Peas A Chance…0 -
We’re also supposed to be able to interact with our politicians directly. I sent Trudeau’s office numerous messages over the last six years. Not once was it acknowledged at all. I emailed my local MP (a Liberal) and heard back directly in a couple days. I don’t necessarily expect a personal reply from the nation’s PM, but why even allow messages to be sent if the impression one is left with is that they have been ignored? That only leads to frustration and eventually anger.erebus said:Or maybe have your say with your vote?
Although, your question is equally applicable to the statue vandalizers and church arsonists, but that hasn’t been the message to those groups. Some of us believe that what’s good for the goose is good for the gander, lol."The world is full of idiots and I am but one of them."

one group is oppressed and had genocide committed against them, the other group is pissed they have to wear masks and get a vaccine to see a movie.DarthMaeglin said:

no, these are in no way equal. not even in the slightest.Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer0 -
So one violence is acceptable and another isn’t? It really is that simple. If they’re not equal before the law (as seems to be the case) then this society has no interest in equality and I become even more fearful for the future. I understand First Nations issues are hot-button problems at the moment, all the more reason to solve them rationally (voting and social activism) rather than via violence.HughFreakingDillon said:

I’ll suggest that any innocent families that happened past some of these statue topplings might have felt unsafe in the moment. And burn down any other religious building and it’s instantly a hate crime.
But throwing pebbles at a “leader” who is doing everything he can to divide society is too far? Again, I don’t agree with the act, but if we’re calling arson “understandable” then so is this. I get that most of you haven’t been subject to 6 years of scorn and derision from Trudeau, but that’s a wrong that is occurring in real-time, not historical. My Prime Minister has spent 6 years saying I’m a bad Canadian because of my political/social beliefs, but I don’t expect sympathy for this in this particular forum, lol. (And speaking of my Trudeau Derangement Syndrome, he’s clearly suffering from Harper Derangement Syndrome since he continues to campaign against him, lol.)
And I’ll say it again, Trudeau is Trump, more on display than ever with his conspiracy theories he’s broadcasting."The world is full of idiots and I am but one of them."

“We can’t risk letting anyone else be in charge”. Trudeau
what a narcissistic arrogant asshole.
This country accomplished great big things before Trudeau came along, with other people in charge.
Trudeau accomplishments was to over regulate weed and assisted death…lmfao.Give Peas A Chance…0 -

Yes, really. It may have turned into a bit of a ramble, but it is how I feel. It is funny how there was no outrage (probably because it was barely reported on) when Bernier was egged last week.dignin said:

I agree that nothing should be thrown at people period. There are no acceptable circumstances. anyone, any party
I personally think that it is going to be an extremely close result. Definitely a minority. Is a Liberal/Conservative result going to be markedly different?
that is why I would like to see the NDP get a chance for once.1996: Toronto

imagine if it were O toole or Singh being pelted with "pebbles". LOL. they'd start decrying the "violent left" and whatnot and how Trudeau is to blame for it.dignin said:

yeah, I don't get this nonsense about "most divisive PM ever". he's actually matured from "super nice guy PM" to "taking no more shit". and I'm down with it.

'I'm pro-choice,' O'Toole says as abortion issue emerges on the campaign trail | CBC News
O'Toole is against aborting based on sex...nothing wrong with that.
Anyways the abortion issue has been settled since 1988 and the liberals and their bought and paid-for media need wedge issue.
Notice Trudeau isn't discussing his failed 6 years as PM...
Hey at least he has nice hair and socks...lmfaoGive Peas A Chance…0 -

Notice Trudeau isn't discussing his failed 6 years as PM...
Hey at least he has nice hair and socks...lmfaoO'Toole also recently voted against a bill introduced by a fellow Conservative caucus member that would have banned "sex-selective" abortions. While most Conservative MPs backed the legislation, O'Toole did not.
"I'm pro-choice and I'm a pro-choice leader, period," O'Toole told reporters today at an Ottawa campaign stop.
"Let me be perfectly clear. As a pro-choice leader of this party, I will make sure that we defend the rights of women to make the choice for themselves with respect to their own health. We will make sure abortion services are available from one ocean to the other."
Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer0 -
and failure? ridiculous. from the national post, September of 2019:
https://nationalpost.com/news/politics/a-look-at-policy-areas-scrutinized-by-a-new-book-on-the-trudeau-government
In short, the experts found that by March of this year Trudeau’s government had entirely followed through on about 50 per cent of its pledges, partially delivered on about 40 per cent and had broken roughly 10 per cent.
I'd say that's pretty fucking successful.Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer0 -
on the other hand, O'Toole has flip flopped, what, 3 times now, whether he's going to keep assault rifles banned or not?
yeah, what a leader.Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer0 -
Has the RCMP started an investigation into pebble gate? Surely throwing pebbles at the pm is a crime? Yes/no? If no, then obviously our past legislature’s did not want to make throwing pebbles illegal because they envisioned a time when there’d be a need to throw pebbles…or why has no arrest been made? Cameras everywhere? Hmmmmm…. Maybe those very sneaky liberals are the pebble tossers…hmmmm.
