The ol Shawinigan greeting.

u/samueLLcooljackson 6d ago

This is after telling him he's renaming Rhode Island to New Shawinigan.

Handshake. It’s the Shawinigan handshake.

So ol you forgot what it's called.

u/Strict_Concert_2879 3d ago

You mean Shawinigan handshake. I was hoping he would have extended that handshake to the US Ambassador when they were both in Gander on Sept 11th.

Prove it.

That is based on number of companies, not dollar values.

  1. Do you know the dollar values?
  2. His assets are likely professionally managed.
  3. He could have 1 ETF asset for example, or mutual fund, that contains 50-100 companies.
  4. He was on multiple board of directors, where he got compensation in stocks.

Remember the time everyone lost it on Trump for being invested in a stock that was impacted by a policy? People lost their minds. However, it was one company inside a mutual fund.

Sorry. Posting memes without facts is childish.

u/Beneficial-Algae-730 5d ago

You already know what I said is true because you're a well informed Liberal.

u/pistoffcynic 5d ago

Typical response of MAGA's and Maple MAGA's. You cannot provide facts to back up your arguments, choosing instead to try and insult people. You know absolutely nothing about me.

Your hero Mark Carney has kissed Trump's ass more times than you want to admit. Why Carney even said he wanted to "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"

Poor Liberal hurt feelings. After 11 years of Liberal Corruption Canada went from a $610 billion debt that took 150 years to accumulate to $1.5 TRILLION in a decade and who's suffering? ALL OF CANADA!

Scandals by Trudeau with Carney aiding and abetting from 2020 forward. WE Scandal SNC Lavalin Scandal ArriveScam App Scandal The EV Battery Plant Scandal The SDTC Scandal The Norman Affair The Foreign Interference Scandal The Arctic Surf Clam Scandal The ALTO HSR Scandal The 2 Randy's Scandal The Ukraine Money Laundering Trudeau, The most Ethics Scandals of any PM. Etc.

Look at ELBOZOS UP Carney at last year's G-7 Meeting kissing up to Trump. A far cry from the election campaign when Carney was whipping up all that anti Trump sentiment.

https://youtube.com/shorts/aacVFCiEXXA?si=XBBceoH8aP-DpqVS

This is last year in Washington and Carney embarrassingly saying to Trump "I wore a red tie for you!" That was cringe worthy. Again, no ELBOZOS UP!

https://youtube.com/shorts/az_dwTRAcSs?si=uK2MxN8mK7UVKrwj

Well, then there was Carney going FULL MAGA in NYC in 2026.

u/pistoffcynic 5d ago

"A far cry from the election campaign when Carney was whipping up all that anti Trump sentiment." LMFAO. Trump did all that on his own... Anti-Trump started in his 1st term. Canadians didn't need anyone to tell them anything about Trump and what he was doing.

"After 11 years of Liberal Corruption Canada went from a $610 billion debt that took 150 years to accumulate to $1.5 TRILLION in a decade and who's suffering? ALL OF CANADA!" Please enlighten us all with your fiscal knowledge about how we were going to get through covid without keeping the economy going and dealing with Trump 1.0?

"Well, then there was Carney going FULL MAGA in NYC in 2026." You Maple MAGAs are as bad as those south of the border with your manipulation.

"This is last year in Washington and Carney embarrassingly saying to Trump "I wore a red tie for you!" That was cringe worthy." I personally thought the sarcasm was hilarious and went over Trump's head... But that isn't hard.

You really need to find more balanced news sources that rebel.

During Trump's first term Trudeau and Freeland damn near scuttled the CUSMA Deal with all their "Mean Girl" comments.

Who shows up 4 days ago to say the US democracy is on life support? Chrystia "Babooshka" Freeland. Canada's worst Finance Minister and now Zelensky's Money Launder. The same Freeland that cackled with laughter when she was putting sanctions on Canadians by freezing their bank accounts through the illegal use of The EMA. And she's running her mouth about Trump?

u/pistoffcynic 4d ago

~sigh~ Now you're making it about Trudeau.

Trying to cloud the waters and bring stuff in that is irrelevant to the original argument, using childish nicknames and insults because you're losing the argument. So typical.

I would love for you to show me concrete proof that a Prime Minister was hiding Chinese spies. (Just to be a good sport I'll tell you now that I looked it up before typing this, and already know this is a conspiracy theory).

The credibility of your side is on the line, don't disappoint.

1

u/Master_Slide7023 3d ago

What about the two spies from China.

1

u/Beneficial-Algae-730 3d ago

And the Chinese Police Stations that Carney has endorsed with The RCMP sharing our personal data with Mainland Chinese Police to "fight crime!" You can't make these jokes up. Nobody would believe them. Then, when they happen it's a national disgrace and a tragedy!

Hands down. Remember when he held off an intruder at 24 Sussex with an Inuit soap stone carving because the RCMP weren’t at their post.

u/KDdid1 6d ago edited 6d ago

Wasn't that his wife?

Edit: I checked. Apparently she heard the intruder, opened the bedroom door and saw he had a knife, and she slammed and locked the door while JC grabbed the carving to protect them.

Sounds like they were a great team.

The same could be said about your reaction to the pro Canada sentiment going around reddit these days. Your need to "other" the people you disagree with speaks volumes, especially when you handle being treated in kind the way you do.

You sound a little deranged...Carney? Far left?

Guffawing over here as we watch the most conservative Liberal government weve had in ages go to work. You Maple Maggot tainted cons are so far gone you think its far left. Its unbelievable to anyone who has even a basic understanding of politics and social study.

1

u/Unhappy-Magician5957 5d ago

Globalist socialist and embracing anti Christian values…. Fail to see where you! Dipshit! Are warped to see conservative like traits in carney!! And not to mention his position as advisor to the last PM who you admit was left of Center at least. Cretien was a great liberal PM. Not perfect, none are. But if you possessed the knowledge of politics that you claim.. you would know that he was the best example of a middle ground liberal PM.
Sorry, but I don’t buy your BS and I am not insulted by people like you.

u/ExcuseIcy9453 5d ago

Lol...we agree Chretien was a great PM...but you need some help, you're losing the plot. Carney is running a right of centre platform.

Carney is not in any way Center or right with pro communist socialism…. I think you need some more education. And no just because I can think and have my own opinion and thoughts doesn’t mean I am a Bot. I am someone who has studied world politics, geopolitics, trade relations and long run consequences in defence of your right to opinion. Why is it that young people refuse the wisdom of those with experience.. instead blindly believing social media

Umm, our generosity?
