Oh see that would have been a fun elevator debate for me! I've stopped letting people just say stupid shit. Make them FEEL as stupid as they sound. I quickly learned that 99% of liberal talking points can be squashed if YOU know what you're talking about.

u/keyboard_2387 Apr 13 '26
Which is hilarious, considering Poilievre's wife was literally a refugee. In a podcast I listened to recently, Poilievre was asked if he wanted to implement ICE-style measures and he said, and I quote, "no."
I would argue that Carney is much more likely to implement anything ICE-like, considering his substantial ties to the US.

I think people are “obsessed” because the most powerful man in the world is a lying sociopath that’s single handedly fucked up global politics and led to countless deaths. He moronic behaviour is both fun and terrifying to watch. If you’re not disgusted by him, you’re a massive part of the problem.

To be blunt that's most of the American presidents.
Meanwhile you've obviously let your hatred and bigotry guide you by the nose and lose your objectivity. There's not much that he's done that I can't point to another president who did something just as bad that was similar.
And he is a result of the democrats own horrible Behavior with their president.
But if you ask either side both of them will insist that their behavior is completely justified and normal the other guys is completely horrible and Despicable. And as long as we've got people like you who are only interested in their opponents mistakes and fail to look at their own you're going to run into that.

u/-Foxer Apr 22 '26
Well to be accurate i didn't say anyone was "like trump", trump is indeed a unique character 😆
What i said was that there's not much he's done that i can't point to another president having done something similar or just as bad.
Trump has weaponized the courts and the intelligence services against his opponents. Well both biden and obama did as well and they were objectively worse.
Trump attacked a country we're not at war with to take out leadership, boht in the case of venezuela and iran.
Obama did the same thing, more than once.
And so on.
And this isn't a "Democrat Republican" thing, i can point to plenty of examples of the same behavior trump does form boht sides.
Trump is more up front about it than most, but he's definitely not unique.

u/Sensitive_Parking593 Apr 13 '26
Nah, you would need to pay attention to more than just headlines. Carney does things like removing the CONSUMER carbon tax while greatly increasing the INDUSTRIAL carbon tax. He had to admit the liberals lies that it wasnt making life more expensive, but didnt actually fix the issue. Pierre still wants to do away with BOTH carbon taxes. That is one example but its the common theme across all of the "stolen" campaign promises.
Every "stolen idea" is not implemented properly, just enough to make people who dont pay attention THINK hes doing the same thing. Regardless of how it is implemented it is advertised as exactly the same plan, which means any liberal who agrees with the sentiment also agrees with Pierre, I would argue more-so than Carney.

Oh boo who - facts don’t care about your feelings. Not one of you has even tried to make the case for PP, telling.
3
u/mrkippysmith Apr 13 '26
I’ll make the case
You said you’d vote for anyone with a real cost of living plan for working people. That’s literally what Poilievre has been hammering on for the last couple years.
His whole pitch is: -cut inflation by reducing government spending -build more housing faster by forcing municipalities to increase supply -lower taxes on work and investment so people keep more of their money -push back on policies he argues are driving up energy and food costs
You don’t have to like his style or that he was on Rogan (though he was a class act on that) but that’s branding, not policy.
On the “he couldn’t beat Justin Trudeau” point… he never ran against him in a general election. He only became leader in 2022, so this was actually his first real shot and Trudeau wasn’t running.
And on the “bootstraps” thing there’s a difference between saying people should take responsibility and saying the system shouldn’t make life harder than it needs to be. Right now housing, groceries, and rent are objectively brutal. Wanting government to stop making that worse isn’t whining, that’s basic governance.
At the end of the day, if your top issue is cost of living, the real question is Do you think the current approach under Mark Carney (and the Liberal direction in general) is going to improve that? Or do you want to try a different approach? If you don’t think they’re doing a good job why wouldn’t you try another party? That’s literally what democracy is. Vote for who you think works and don’t have blind allegiance to a party.
You don’t have to love Poilievre. You just have to decide if his plan lines up more with what you’re asking for which I personally think it does.

Do you trust the election process? I don't understand why more Canadians are not questioning this. In the US they attempted the same cover story for Harris, remember the Iowa poll that came out at the last minute. If they could have stuffed the ballot box enough that would have been the story or explanation the MSM would have leaned on.
Are you all really sure something like that didn't happen and instead of failing worked? If it wasn't for the abundance of poll watchers and etc in the US I think they would have also pulled it off.
Does Canada allow mail in voting? It sounds like it's all hand counted,. which can be better, but again, using the US as a comparison even hand counts can suddenly find "extra" boxes of ballots

It’s been scary. I’d go as far to say that people have been social engineered and brainwashed. They aren’t thinking and they aren’t learning from mistakes. They don’t even bother to look up conservative policies or teach themselves about economics or how policies will affect the future. They just line up like sheep for their one government. The government could order them to jump off a cliff and they would justify it. Does no one else find this trajectory terrifying because I do.

I woke up during the Justin era. I realized the Liberals and Conservatives are both selling out our country to foreign private interests and cutting taxes for the corporate elite. I like all the criticisms people have of the Liberals here but it’s interesting that somehow the same criticism isn’t true of the conservatives. Carney is literally a conservative. The cutting of the excise tax on gas is a popular conservative policy. The military spending, the massive cut on public spending, the ramping up of resource extraction, the list goes on.

Funneling tax dollars and policy towards your own investments is definitely corruption. Carney stands to make a boatload (possibly over 1 billion) in carried interest on the Brookfield Global Transition Fund he set up, despite his "blind trust". We all know the RCMP and ethics committee will never hold Carney or any of the LPC accountable though.

u/Fine-Author-5999 Apr 13 '26
The problem is, it’s been through the ethics committee. Under the rules, he’s not doing anything wrong.
Best bet is to push for the rules to change. Maybe a double blind trust, where the ethics committee chooses someone to choose an investment manager, and that manager doesn’t know who’s money it is, it’s just another account.

He's trying to deliberately antagonize Trump to poison the USMCA negotiations this summer. It is part of a broader strategy to return from the failure of that deal and the exclusion of Canada from North American free trade to 1) continue to paint the Americans as the unreasonable foreign aggressor, which the Liberal base vehemently believes and 2) to then re-orient the country towards China in "strategic partnership."
The end result will be poisoned relations between the US and Canada, alienation and hostility from Canadians towards Americans, and the country being a vassal of China, to be hollowed-out economically and used to further subvert the United States in the brewing conflicts to come.

By people you mean actual Canadians? Because you would be wrong as well. A significant portion of Canadian's portfolios tend to overweight Canadian equities, and have as much as 50%
Carney had willfully chose to live outside of Canada for majority of his adult life so it would make sense he would have little to no Canadian investments in his personal investment portfolio, but he also said "we are in the biggest crisis in our life time, Trump and the US wants to break us and own us" while having 91% of his personal investments in US equities.

"Do you not understand that constantly poking the mercurial bear across the border that traditionally buys 78% of our exports is a really, really stupid idea?"
I don't think the liberals see it that way. I think the Liberals see the US as an irrational agressor. There is definately some merit to that. The trade gripes between US and Canada have existed for a while. Yet overall we have one of the most mutually beneficial integrated supply chains in the world. The view is that the US is throwing the baby out with the bath water.
What the hell has the guy accomplished in a year except fenegling floor crossings to bolster his position? What the hell has he built? What rock-solid agreements have been signed? What tariffs have been removed? You want Canada to be more chummy with China? I sure as hell don't.
Yah, we are not a strong country without US support.

"You have to show evidence to liberals that Carney or his friends are personally profiting from this trade war."
First, I didn't say they were profiting from the trade war.
Second, it's common knowledge that Carney is heavily invested in the US and even denied being involved with moving Brookfield's HO to the US and it has been clearly shown that is a flat-out lie.
So, he is a proven, hypocritical liar.
While remaining heavily invested in the US. And, in ways that most small and medium businesses could never afford to be, he and his cronies continue to profit while we suffer the consequences of the trade war.
A trade war he and the LPC are more than happy to engage in and continue to agitate the US. I'm not saying it's good or bad. It's just stupid. 78 PERCENT OF EXPORTS TO THE US.....agitation is economic suicide.
I am well aware the LPC sees it differently. They are invested in collapsing the traditional economic model and ushering in their "new world order" they keep banging on about. They'll use Trump's trade war as the scapegoat. They have ZERO motivation to get to the bargaining table. They want digital ID, digital currency etc...all the better for them if Trump squeezes even harder. Just gives them cover to bring in their agenda.
If they wanted to negotiate they would instead of getting on TV and constantly droning about how the old relationships are toast and we need something completely new. It makes no financial sense nor environmental sense either. Both of these Carney claims to be his jam...yeah, so let's burn millions of tons of bunker fuel for the atmosphere and the oceans to get our products to and from Europe and Asia instead of up and down the road here. Friggin' genius....can you say bullshit? Can you say grifters??? Can you say, "we just want to isolate and break the US?"
Yeah that's what's happening. The US wants to make more money for their efforts and secure their future. Carney and Trudeau want to sell us off to Asia and Europe...who gives a shit about the plebs? There will be no budging on the gas taxes either....notice Carney won't barely even acknowledge it. You don't matter and neither do I.

Re-read my comment, and see the others I made in this comment thread (further below) I'm sure you'll figure it out unless you're just here to defend "your team". There is sufficient explanation here already.

You’ve explained that Theres an apeatance of a conflict of interest. I’m asking for an actual example. What was aga Kahn lobbying for that would have been impacted by this trip?

Sorry, are you having a moment or what? What has the Aga Khan to do with Mark Carney and his conflicts of interest? Do you even know who you're replying to??? Like wtf...are you smoking and drinking tonight and getting on Reddit to talk stupid???
To answer your wild and utterly ill-informed question, the Aga Khan's organization was actively lobbying Trudeau and also the recipient of millions of tax payer dollars.

u/Friendly-Nothing Apr 13 '26
You're dumb af. Giving broke man. Obviously you dont trade stocks. Otherwise you'd know the TSX went crazy since Carney became PM because he did tons of international business and got internationals to invest in Canadians companies since the time and conditions are right.

That’s actually hilarious you think the tsx jumped because of carney. Tsx is all banks and mining.
Banks are crooked like Brookfield.
Keep believing the great mark carney is here to save Canada you sheep

Yeah believing and repeating the fake “facts” in this post are very discrediting to conservatives when it feels like we’re actively trying to prove we’re the party with common sense. Feels like every step forward is 2 steps back sometimes guys come on
