He’s “announced” a lot of plans. It’s imperative to keep an open mind, but at some point results need to be seen. As food inflation numbers out today show, the most important part of sustaining human life is becoming ridiculously more expensive by the month. Carney is already sending 12 million Canadians extra money, borrowed money, mind you, to help people feed themselves. This announcement today is yet another that will require billions of dollars to implement without providing any indication where the money will come from. Speeches and announcements show a government trying to project optimism but without tangible results soon, all they are is fodder for a campaign brochure.
I have a different view about Carney. He is not in this for the money or power. He did not need the job and stepped in to save Canada. At least the money being spent are investments within Canada. Unlike Trudeau where he was throwing our money around the world trying to buy himself a seat on the UN council.
Carney is all talk no action. The only action Mark Carney has taken is to enrich Brookfield. Remember when Carney said judge him by grocery prices, I'm sure you all go to the grocery stores. Remember when he said he was the best negotiator, he said he would get us the best deal with the US. than he'd told young people they just have to make sacrifices. All talk and no action. He's doing nothing but promises and MOUs, Sorry but talking doesn't pay the bills, doesn't enrich a Country. Liberals have been promising for 10 years we'd have the strongest economy in the G7. What are they waiting for? Zero results. A country that has to give rebates for food is not a strong country.
Name what Carney has done to move Canada forward? Make life more affordable? Lower the price of groceries, housing? Make companies want to invest in Canada? Have companies come/stay in Canada to create jobs? What is Carney actually done? half prices on a bridge out east? 10 dollars rebate for groceries that most of Canadians don't get.
Since the 1960's, various Liberal governments have neglected defence spending and the Canadian military. This was never more true than under either Trudeau prime ministers. Heck, we even had issues selling a few troop carriers abroad a few years ago - becuase of objections from the Left including many Liberals.Now Carney wants us to believe that they (he) has had an epiphany. He wants us to believe that Liberals are going to spend billions on defence and sell our capabilities to the world. Sorry, not buying it.It makes for great phot-ops (I can hardly wait for Sheehan's talking points to be regurgitated by him any time now). But let's be honest. Carney is still a Globalist and still harbors their beliefs. He still believes in open borders, keeping oil in the ground and disarming the civilian population. The new leopard has not changed his spots. There will be a bunch of tax dollars that end up being spent - but I doubt it will translate into new Canadian jobs.
The $345-million referenced in the Sootoday story is not the value of the potential submarine contract; it 's the estimated value of the Hanwha's investment in a new structural steel beam mill at Algoma, along with future purchases of steel product to support submarine construction. Investing in domestic R & D and manufacturing related to defence will help us develop new partners, new markets, good jobs and will decrease our dependence on others. This new approach can also be a significant boon to our local economy.
Blame Air canada and porter for thier ridiculous priced flights! Unless you are going to a sun destination and book through a travel agent air canada to toronto or ottawa costs more than the flight to the Caribbean!
There are far too many city board of works employees doing absolutely nothing all day except driving around sometimes 6 to a truck……fire fighters have their own jobs to do and they do that well….the PUC and city know exactly where the hydrants are so get it done folks
The problem is the entire system was designed for maximum profit, with no regard to Canadian students. They didn’t even build a single residence in thirty years yet they had no problem with investing in satellite campuses outside the city. And their solution is to take away funding from students who need it most, since the international tuition payments are going away? I ask the question everyone’s thinking. Where did all the money go?
