I personally like to see actual and factual details of a plan before I bring out my pitchforks for anything. That goes for plans from any political party, including the ones I don't vote for.

His speeches are just buzz words the name justin trudeau repeated over and over again.

Hilarious that PP’s campaign slogan is “Common sense”

Would you like your properties to be worth 50% less and you having a hard time finding work? Immigration has been great for our businesses.

I just want a politician to say
"here's what we are going to do" instead of "this party is retard me smart."

PP is now going after trans people. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/poi...ooms-1.7120972 Quote: |
Poilievre backs banning trans women from women's sports, change rooms and bathrooms
| Then he goes after David Eby one of the most popular premiers in Canada. https://www.kelownanow.com/watercool...oilievre_says/ Quote:
David Eby has 'worst housing record of any politician on Earth,' Pierre Poilievre says
Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre has blasted David Eby, saying BC’s premier “has probably the worst housing record of any politician on Earth.”
| This guy has a 17 point lead but can't keep his mouth shut. I have a feeling he is going to blow it.

Wow he's giving Eby a lot of credit, he's only been premiere for less than 1.5 years and he's already the worst politician for housing on the whole planet!

He feels threatened because Eby had a real job before... PP has never done anything whatsoever besides lie and collect votes.

I used to like Kevin Falcon when he was an MLA whenever that was, 10+ years ago seemed to have some decent ideas and be reasonable for the most part
Now as a leader though just seems like the typical out of touch, do anything to be in power type. The commercials he has are pretty cringe staged in an appartment that probably a huge portion of people live in trying to show it as like “low income” or whatever lol

How does paper equity make my life better? | Increased imagration means more new customers for small business. Since you own 2 properties I'm guessing you rent one out. Because of imagration rents have gone up.

Yea.. those people aren’t propping up the business I want to survive.
Rent costs are the number 1 driver of closing business, not customer base.

My friends and I have a term when it comes to sports betting “toilet money”
Taking a puck line of 1.5, betting some crazy 10 game parlay, etc. Toilet money.
Giving -any- amount of money to Haiti is toilet money, period. It is achieving -nothing-

We literally don’t need anymore Public relations about how “giving” Canada is. We should be an asshole country that charges all these migrants a million dollars to get a chance at entering the country. Just a chance, if you can’t past the interview get the fuck out.
They did that to my parents. Either you came because you had an employable skill or you came with cash. In the early 90s all the mainland chinese who came out were doctors or lawyers or some sort of a useful human being. Not the trash refugees they are letting in nowadays.

I wish one day I’d see one of these hand out/benefits though. lol
