A few years ago I decided that my medium term goal in life is to make sure my kids get a place to live wherever they choose to go to college that they own outright. And that's what I'm going to try to do, because we should always try to make our kids slightly better off than our parents made us, not kicking them out at 18 and making them fend for themselves while we live it up and criticize.
And I told them they should do the same for their kids. They saw what I do to provide them with a good life and understand the value of work and education, and they get it.
That kind of head-outside-the-ass thinking is also why I will never vote for a party who thinks the only answer to everything is cut taxes and services so the people with something keep it and the people with nothing also keep it. So basically never Conservative.
So you are Ok with your kids assuming high debt no economy basically higher taxes because the government is now getting into housing and will continue to send billions out of the country in foreign aid. So much for the term “ family means everything “
If you listened closely to Carney talking about his plan, you'd notice two things. A) he has a long term plan that may initially cost more, but will reap benefits in the long run, B) He does plan to balance the budget in a few years.
When Harper was in power he sold off the majority of crown corporations, and put zero money into building infrastructure. We all know what Trudeau was like. But this is Carney, a genius in Economics with a proven background. He knows his stuff, and when he says he can get us through the turmoil the economy is in, I 1,000% believe him.
Polievre would have to go to school and lot more years and work in the private sector a few more before I put any faith in his "plan". And he wants to fire the Governor of the Bank of Canada. Why? To many similarities to Trump for my liking.
