BREAKING: Justin Trudeau announces he will resign after Liberal leadership race

95

What a wicked population we have become. The level of hatred towards a prime minister is an indication of a population that demands its choice every time. Dislike the person? Fine. Disrespect and personal attacks to this extent reveals we have lost a lot of grace and self respect as a country.

Trump wins back the White House in historic fashion

109

I don't quite understand Canadians who are pro-Trump. Get ready for 10% tarrifs across the board and US protectionalism. Like him or loathe him, he is far from a friend of Canada. It's going to be an even tougher 4 years for what's coming.

$3billion is a lot of doctors and would have a much bigger impact on my vote. Family doctor or $200? Hmmmmm

Back to the polls: Prime Minister Carney expected to call federal election Sunday

Or maybe PP only criticizes and has shown no ability to lead a country with no experience other than being a politician?

Mark Carney’s first budget projects $78B deficit, program and civil service cuts

64

The accumulating debt is going to be a bigger and bigger problem. We had all sacrificed to get it down to $600 billion and finally, we were being smart. The comment “we are the envy of the G7” is like saying “we are the envy of the neighbourhood” with a massive home and expensive cars that we can’t afford and are maintained by a house of cards interest structure. Step one? Make it a law not one dollar can be given as foreign aid can be given when in a deficit position. For a guy who supposedly is a master of economics and finance, this budget is another step to handcuffing our children’s futures.

All remaining farmland should be protected under non development laws. We are the dumbest species despite our place top of the food chain. Our politicians focus on now with little regard to the future.

Terri Harrison.....do you have any data or facts to back up your opinion because the existing data says otherwise? Most Canadians are comfortable with our ties to the monarchy.

'Disheartening': Retailers in Orillia facing bold, frequent thefts

When millions of foreign criminals flock to Canada to rip it and its people off, you know it’s a failed justice system. It has become a shockingly weak pier of Canadian democracy.

Unlike PP, Jagmeet has a career that pays far more then being in government. This is a red herring and is basically false.

POLLS: Liberals hold a steady lead, and other poll insights

15

Not so easy to say that, I’m voting against another doubling of the debt. That’s my issue that means the most and the Conservatives are much more likely to manage the money better.

This is Liv! They couldn’t care less about the environment or existing community fabric. It’s all about exploiting the land to maximize profits and then they will be gone.

POLL: Readers evenly split on Canada joining the EU

24

Seeing as though we are on a different continent, that’s not going to happen. There are countries waiting to get in to the EU that are actually in Europe. We are limited in our geography and tied directly to the US.

Simple simple simple. Keep funding tied to inflation which it hasn’t been. Stop short changing public education.
