Not sure if I should be surprised or not to see CUPE not pulling any punches on PeePee lol~

Between Turdeau, Freeland, and PeePee, I think the preferred option among most Canadians would be pretty easy. But AFAIK, Freeland doesn't seem too interested in stepping up to take on the top leadership role. And it would seem very odd to me that Turdeau would willingly relinquish the party leadership role on his own, even if it would mean the greater good for the Liberals Party (and of course for Canada as well).

He’ll hold on grasping at the last bit of power instead of relinquishing leadership even if it means the party loses.

The CUPE thing is hilarious. As a union member myself how could any union say the current govt. has done -anything- for unions lol.. jagmeets broken promises that will never come to fruition?

It’s really just gotten to such a low point here that the unknown is better than the status quo.

Do dictatorships let you buy whatever 5.0 Mustang or truck you want? Or race around on UTV's in the snow? Tell me how your life is so tough these days.

Are you being given a portioned amount of potatoes every month to boil? The odd beet for colour? LOL

You guys are ridiculous with your exaggeration of lifestyle impediments.

The Conservatives did everything possible under Harper to fuck up PSEC and PIPS. I should know, I was in both. I lost so many good honest hard working co-workers to layoffs and DRAP (deficit reduction action plan) position eliminations. Harper's government also allowed the fed system to keep running on like a 5 year lapsed contract. Don't even get me started on fucking Phoenix, another Conservative government disaster... does your company ever not pay you for 3 months straight randomly and then balk at issuing you emergency payments or double your pay and then threaten you to give the money back as fast as possible? I know of at least 1 person locally who committed suicide as a result of Phoenix issues.

Were the Conservatives fiscally responsible spending billions on a broken pay system? How about when Harper's government decided to eliminate local HR/Payroll positions at every government so we can't talk to anyone about our pay or employment issues because some minister in New Brunswick wanted to employ everyone there in a big expensive (failure) of a central location for all that stuff which is constantly understaffed and won't answer your requests for months on end. Guess what now? Liberal government is having to keep that centre open and re-open positions in local areas in all departments to restore service to acceptable levels again.

I was so thankful when the Liberal government came back in and re-negotiated new contracts and has done so in a timely fashion since then... they've gone out of their way to grow the sector and pour money into Phoenix to fix it's stupid broken ass as well as commit to a replacement.

So yah, one of the biggest unions in Canada says FUCK YOU to the Conservative government and THANK YOU to the Liberal one.

You sound like a typical govt. worker lol

I’ve never been a union person, and my experience being in a union for the last 6 years has solidified my opinion on them. People in unions would rather be miserable and literally drag themselves to work over actually considering going somewhere else and actually being happy in their lives. This is magnified in govt. jobs in my experience.

I have a former colleague who left to work for the govt. and even his little insignificant role the amount of bloat and waste is astounding. Again, don’t really see a working system as it is, so what’s the worse that could happen

I'm not a union person myself either tbh

I've also seen the ugly side of it, I've seen guys/girls who don't deserve to clean bathrooms at Walmart be protected to the maximum of protections. The old "squeaky wheel always gets the grease" addage.

I hate people who say things like "another pensionable day"

Thankfully, you see the world in the color of glasses you put on in a given day. If you're looking for bloat? You'll see it. If you're looking for bad workers? You'll see them. If you are looking for amazing people... you'll see those too. I see lots of hard workers around me and motivated professional people too.

It's the same even in a private company. Just that when things do go to shit with an individual you can relatively quickly fire someone's ass whereas it's quite difficult in the fed system.

That said, I fail to see where I'm a "typical govt worker" just because I can see the Cons fucked with the public service non-stop and made horrible decisions. You said you wanted to know why a union would support the Liberal government and what the Lib government ever did for any union? Well...... I answered your question. You're welcome.

You want to write off an entire nationwide group of employees because a former co-worker said he saw some bad things lol... well I saw some pretty shitty Telus installers in my life, but I think it's the individual not the company/system.

Wait, you guys are getting beets?

peepee fans are an absolute clown show. He's a diet trump that will just lie and talk shit and every person that hates what he insults will just say "MAN HE TELLS IT LIKE IT IS"
I was looking forward to not having to bother going to vote in the next election, but unfortunately, looks like I'm stuck voting for someone I don't want, again.

We’re doing so amazing! Let’s vote for more of the same!

I’m sure Justin has an extensive plan to put more money into your pockets, his self-balanced budget has certainly worked out for me.

LETS VOTE FOR WORSE BECAUSE ME ANGY. Very sensible.

Don’t you have more money now than you did before the pandemic? I think you probably do.

I am positive that I do and very thankful for it.

Thank you for voting for someone that will give my family a tax break. That new luxury tax is going to put my dads new Model X over 200K. Good thing the gains he has made on his suncor stock will cover it. Now to figure out what to do with the second one he accidentally ordered.

This ^^ and I absolutely hate Turdeau. FailFish

Hahaha, I'll buy you a beer for this comment.

...although it is literally what happened in the US in 2016...

I nominate 68style for Liberal party leader. :toot:

^ that might be the most insulting thing anyone has ever said to me :lol

So until PP got elected the current liberal govt. had basically thrown up their hands saying inflation is a global phenomenon. Now the cons have a leader and all of a sudden they say they now are forming a plan to fight inflation

All the while they are at a caucus retreat here on the west coast, paying for all their members to fly across the country to a resort to brainstorm how to put money in peoples pockets. After this meeting they are then flying all the way back across the country for yet another discussion at another resort

Lol.. they are certainly in touch with the average Canadian.

Btw, today the people in a discussion on the radio came out saying Justin is spending 12k a month on groceries. Again, very normal, very relatable

Here is some of JT's bill.

Why would anyone think covid tests, a private chef and going to a restaurant, would fall under the category of groceries.

b-cuz libural eleets spending r money.

Precisely why Jagmeet needs to be replaced. Nobody has ever taken the Greens seriously enough to be a threat, and the BQ are a single-province party. The NDP has gone from being akin to Canada's version of a true Labour Party to being the La Croix version of the Liberal Party.

Every once in a while Jagmeet Singh will look down at his expensive watch, realize its time to get in front of the cameras, and talk about how the working people of Canada need a fair shake before fading back into the shadows while he waits for Justin Trudeau to tell him what happens next.

The NDP replaced the out-of-touch Mulclair with the out-of-touch Singh. Its a sad state of affairs for the party of Tommy fucking Douglas.

At the end of the day. No matter who we vote it. It's going to be the same shit. It's gotten to a point where it's nobody but career politicians where their role is to distract the public basically pointing at the all the faults of each other without bringing any solid solution to the country. They're there for the pension and their supporting casts. It's going to be business as usual and the average taxpayers will be paying for their shitty and stupid mistakes down the road.

Lol $324 at loblaws... I've spent more than that at superstore myself.

As for the personal chef, as a G8 nation I fucking well hope Canada can afford a personal chef for the person in charge of our country.

For people complaining about the NDP.

Liberals unveil dental care details, boosts to rent benefit and GST rebate in NDP-backed affordability package.

Why should someone who worked there ass off to become a lawyer have to dress down to speak to the public? How much did scheer spend on an image consultant to dress like a guy who robbed a value village in the 80's?

I'm not planning to run for a seat but if I did would you want me to sell my R8 and buy a overpriced beat up old pick up truck and brag about going to apple bee's when I feel fancy. I hate it when politicians larp for votes.

Looks like Jagmeet is not the only one who likes Rolex watches. Your buddy does also.
