I feel like I could do Poilievre's job, watch this:
Instead of Parroting the Media, maybe actually go and listen to his uncut, unclipped answering of the media. Unlike what Trudeau seems to do, Pierre is seemingly actually able to speak a whole sentence without stuttering - almost like he is actually confident in his remark: And that is bloody refreshing.
Oh. PS - I think Pierre has some bad takes, he is a human being after all. But after these years of Trudeau: This country is in Shambles. Car thefts are up, Government Spending is up, Poverty Rates are Climbing. We have had more Scandals in the last 8 years than in the rest of my lifetime - and they all fall on Trudeau's Shoulders.
Love him or Hate him: Pierre is by current appearances more competent of a Leader than Trudeau, and Competent is what this country needs.
Isn't it true that Canadians receive a rebate to offset the average cost of the carbon tax, i.e. lower emitters actually come out ahead, while excessive emitters are the ones paying the most? What's the alternative plan for tackling climate change?
To me, printing your way out of a financial crisis, which is often out of the control of the Bank of Canada and the Goverment of Canada in the first place (see: global pandemic), is a feature, not a bug, of reserve banking. I think that Keynesian economics helped to mitigate the impacts of the 2008 sunprime lending crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic, in Canada.
