So, here we are. Trudeau called our last election the most important in our history. Nope. This one is. Do we cow-tow to the failed Liberal agenda once again simply because they replaced the worst PM we ever had, with another fake Canadian, oneout to keep his fellow net zero oligarchs rich and us poorer, that will continue to govern by an ideology as opposed to what is best for the citizens of this country. Carney is a zebra, and they don’t change their stripes. He’s surrounded himself with the same MP’s that voted for and defended several of the destructive policies that Carney now says he’d scrap. It’s still all out here. Liberal MP’s defending the carbon tax for years, the capital gains tax, criticizing the opposition for policies they now say they support. Do we want a government that is always playing from behind on every major crisis, from housing, affordability, opioids and immigration? It’s time for the Liberals to go.
Wow. Pretty rich of Caputo to say that as elected officials “we need to hold ourselves to a higher standard”. Just a few weeks ago, as an elected official, paid for by us, to represent Saultites, she chose to represent her own self interest, and declined to attend a joint council meeting in the Michigan Sault. She didn’t hold herself to higher standard then. She chose to think only of herself. The whole police services board issue is clearly political and the lines drawn between the parties is pretty obvious proof of that.
“Hoath hopes to see more Canadians support businesses in Sault, Michigan”. How about no. Why would we? I stayed away from the US during Trumps first term, and will happily do it again.
Ooooooh. Terry issued a “statement”. Relax everybody, crisis averted. His government chased away billions of dollars in investments. Investments that could have required OUR steel. Trump is surely threatened by our useless MP and will remove the tariffs immediately. The Liberals don’t understand a politician out to protect his own citizens and the industries that employ them. Instead of that, we get strongly worded memos from the likes of this guy, the perennial backbencher and clapping seal.
Get ready to see more of this. Sleazy landlords skirting rules intended to keep tenants and neighbours safe. He wants more time to meet with neighbours? Ummm, no. He needs to adhere to the building code and zoning bylaws.
Why was she there? A pretty expensive photo op. Wouldn’t take questions because surely they would have been questions about a deal with the US, to eliminate the 50 percent tariffs, for which she has no answer. I remember very clearly during the recent federal election, how Carney promised he would stand tough against Trump, but he has a big fat zero in his win column. The local MP, has his lips sewn shut waiting for instructions and Joly comes all the way here to put on a shiny hard hat and spout her pandering nonsense! Dear god we deserve better.
Oh yes. Make sure you look after what is actually city property or else!!! Dear god, drive around this city and look at all of the city owned, unmaintained grass at intersections and along roadways. It’s disgusting. Long grass, littered with garbage, but the city threatens you with fines if you don’t do it near your property? Despicable. I asked to have the sidewalk in front of my house swept as part of the spring street sweeping, and waited so long I did it myself.
It wasn’t a conflict. Carney folded like a cheap suit. So much for him being the guy to stand up to Trump. Just last week his own Finance Minister praised the DST and promised to implement it, only to bow down to the Orange nut a few days later.
Algoma with the Liberals backing them up should argue that buying the iron ore from the US, is a threat to our national security. The same argument Trump is using to impose 50 percent tariffs on our steel.
Are ready? Nope. The Liberal government has been caught flat footed on every single crisis we’ve faced the last decade. Covid. Immigration. Inflation. Chinese interference. And now world trade. We are a resource based economy with an ideological Liberal government that spends more time hectoring other nations about what they supposedly do wrong and not focused on what we’re doing wrong. Carney keeps telling us the world has changed yet they refuse to change. Get the resources that we’re fortunate to have to the people that want them. Stop letting every special interest group stifle our economy. If we don’t, Trumps maniacal erosion of democracy is going to crush us. I don’t ever wanna be an American. I am a flag waving Canadian that wants us to succeed and be accountable for our own future.
The Liberals were warned over and over again by industry experts, the Provinces, the Opposition Parties. They are going ahead with it anyways. Trump isn’t having it. We’re really going to jeopardize trade with a market the size of the US, because the government thinks paying more for Netflix is more important?
Our dollar doesn’t buy much at home let alone the US. Bridge fare, duties, then add the ridiculous orange baby sitting in the White House, and it convinces me to stay away. Good to see others doing the same. Hearing it’s impacting businesses in the Michigan Sault, which is kind of the point. Too bad, we had a good thing.
Sad. Fake patriotism is worse than none at all. The people spouting “elbows up”, a well known hockey reference are the same raging lefties that would call out the sport for being racist, misogynistic, and only for rich white kids.
The elbozos will call this a win, but it’s more capitulation to Trump, after he added even more tariffs today on goods we export to the US, made with our steel and aluminum. We also got nothing for Carney taking a knee yet again We can’t beat the US in a trade war, we simply cannot. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith was called a traitor for resisting retaliation. She was correct, then and now. The best hope is a deal, a deal Carney promised he’d make, but as deadlines came and went tariffs have only gotten higher.
I was a proud patriot flying my Canadian flag long before Terry suddenly decided it was important. This fake patriotism is worse than none at all. Don’t forget that Terry’s Team Canada is hiking the carbon tax April 1st, along with built in inflators on alcohol, and yes, Terry also gets a big pay raise that day as well.
So basically Terry has done nothing. Tariffs were 25 percent. He did nothing to help get them reduced or removed. Now that they’re at 50 percent he blames the previous government, but the Liberals have been in power 10 years. What’s the statute of limitations on “Blame Harper”.? While his Liberals were busy chasing away billions in investments they shunned major infrastructure projects that would have used our steel and our workers. He says he’s working morning noon and night, like he’s some kind of hero but actions speak louder than words and so far all Terry has offered are words.
Hounds fanaticGasoline went down 10 cents a litre over night from scrapping the consumer carbon tax. I’m sure you appreciated that. Thanks conservatives every time you fill up. The industrial carbon tax punishes industry and is applied across the food production industry, from fertilizers to processing plants. It’s adding to the cost of steel and food right now. Eye roll!
