Local MPs stay loyal to Poilievre after Liberals transition to majority
16
In my opinion, making back room deals and using floor crossings to achieve a majority government is pretty undemocratic. Lots of people in those ridings are probably wondering why they even bothered voting. Something should absolutely be done to stop this in the future.I am cautiously optimistic about Carney and I think he's a huge improvement over his predecessor, but this does not reflect well upon his character. Now that he wields a majority government, I suppose we will experience first hand what he really stands for.Ill never understand how quality of life has plummeted in every aspect for Canadians across the country and people still enthusiastically support the liberal party. I don’t really see what they have actually done to earn your support? What has improved?Everything in this country was objectively better for everyone, while Steven harper was prime minster and not by a little bit. And for everyone who is critical of Pierre, he is untested.

Pierre Poilievre lost his chance for leadership and has been foundering in the political quagmire trying to find the footing that he has lost. It doesn’t help matters that his message to the Canadian people has bounced around depending on the flavour of the day and even supporting that person in the White House.Prime Minister Carney has been a shining star in politics for a very short time and has made spectacular speeches that resonated not only with Canadians but people around the world. Whether you hate him or like him Mr. carney has shaken up the political landscape that hasn’t been seen since Mr. Harper was in power. Time only tells what will happen down the road.

Well when things get more expensive and things become harder to do, I hope people who voted liberal dont complain. You voted for this economy so I hope they enjoy it. You cant vote for it and complain that everyone else is at fault but the government who has been in power for a decade.

Come on Doherty and Zimmer grow a pair. Admit it that Canada is in a full on dictatorship. Carney will soon start full on uncontrolled immigration to keep the Liberals in perpetual power and hand Canada over to the elitist globalists. Canada is done.People that will disagree with me, just wait.Also every government policy is enriching Carney's Brookfield thus him.

Carney is a word salad master. He has done nothing but made Canadians lives more and more expensive. Enjoy your new 10 cents off gasoline ad 4 cents off diesel as the price climbs well beyond that farce of a bonus for Canadians 🤦🏼‍♂️

Carney hasn't done anything beneficial for the economy . If he has please explain how the cost has gone through the roof. Didn't he say he would get trade deals done? Why not open our resources up to the open market. Especially now when there is a huge demand for oil.

But we have to pay a rain tax because the city apparently is broke, but yeah, let’s “flush our money down the loo” while we’re at it…

That’s an F-35 squadron, a terrible and overpriced plane the US is trying to force us to buy. Hopefully Saab will get the nod.

a washroom will need a caretaker and probably security or it will be junk before fall....

It seems people attach their personalities and personal value to political party, instead of being objective. People can't see the forest from the trees

Defensive but happened on a person's farm ? Maybe the bear numbers are higher than the numbers people in Vancouver think. If COs and RCMP who are in the forest can't find them how do people who never leave Vancouver count them. Also how hard are they to find if we are cutting down ALL of forests?

Public washrooms are just good city planning the fact that the city of prince george is 111 years old and does not have year round usable accessible public washrooms is embarrassing.

Recall a municipal politician, after being elected, stating he was surprised at the amount of time spent on washroom & dog issues. Welcome to city politics. And like every other issue, there is always the malcontents who constantly complain no matter the decision.I just ask politicians to make decisions in good faith. If I disagree, oh well, the majority of decisions are not worth making a fuss over. I generally just make note of it & let it inform me come election time. No need to get whiny about like a lot the usual suspects in the comments section.

I have lived in the Charella, Starlane area (North of Highway 16) for over 10 years and noticed the following: Hundreds of new houses every year being built, some of the highest taxes in BC for the value of the homes, and very little infrastructure being built during that time. There are no stores, no schools, no government services and only a handful of businesses in our busy area. Tyner to UNBC should have been twinned ten years ago. I have no confidence that the City planners and City leadership are willing to spend any money on areas outside of the downtown money pit.

Thank you to the Citizen for the attention to this important and sadly controversial issue.I am in full agreement with statements made by Ms. Matthew’s and Ms. Booth. The donut analogy, the lack of respect for the previously provided public input on development in this area, the inevitable increase to our property taxes from new infrastructure costs when we can’t even afford to fix the aging works we have, and the certainty that environmental damage as well as loss of wildlife habitat will occur - it is maddening to think this development could proceed. Prince George has other options where affordable housing can be built. Nature and green space are one the most important and attractive features our city has to offer. UNBC is looking to kill the goose that laid the golden egg. Pave paradise, put up a parking lot? I look forward to casting my vote in Novembers election.

I’ve seen you post plenty of “malcontented” comments on things you don’t agree with… perhaps you just don’t like hearing opposing viewpoints. Don’t worry, the Federal Liberals are working on legislation to censor the population to only be allowed to express far-left, progressive opinions in public.

You seem to whine about “usual suspects” about as much as any of them post.
