He’s trying to say last 10 year as in since the Liberal won(end 2015), but what he’s actually probably using the last 10 reported years(2014-2024). Which includes some real bad end of Harper years. As far as I know the 2025 data is not available yet and in general I feel like the dude pulled the entire thing out of his ass.

Also as usual just to point out the flawed Conservative logic. Even if the graph was correct, it sure seems like a real crap metric on how people feel about how country is doing.

Also regarding the site as a whole:

Catherine Swift - current Director of the Fraser Institute

Janet Ecker - Former Conservative MLA

Lee Harding - Former Saskatchewan Director for the Canadian Taxpayers Federation

He will and given the platform he built he doesn’t have a choice. If you look at his social media profiles almost all the top comments is asking him to do it.

I spoke to someone today that had a lot to say about the shooter’s gender. When I asked if they even knew if the shooter was alive or captured they couldn’t answer me.

We’re in the same province where this happened. These people has lost even the most basic self preservation instincts in favor whatever narrative people tell them to obsess about

This is the actual summary from the surveys.

As someone who reads these things semi regularly. This one is noticeably lower quality. It says the AI use was limited to certain aspects and things were manually reviewed but this thing almost feels entirely generated.

I’ll file this under Carney picking another guy that can’t even show basic competency at his role. Although that may very well be intended.

Just a fyi your Onn 4k Pro portion is out of date. You can buy them in Canada as of mid last year, so no more region locks.

Will add that given your context you’ll want to mention the 100mbps built in Ethernet port and the firmware bug that causes most usb A gigabit adapters to not fully utilize the bandwidth and there’s only certain chips that will give you a gigabit.

It’s nifty that he’s saving us 10k but someone might want to remind him the 2 mill it cost us to bring back this guy.

2024 spendings:

1. Pierre Poilievre (Conservative) – $8,832,375.53
2. Justin Trudeau (Liberal) – $4,194,564.39
3. Jagmeet Singh (NDP) – $3,798,681.92
4. Yves-François Blanchet (Bloc Québécois) – $3,706,058.42

Yes. The proven underlying mechanism for using collective monetary means to improve social wellbeing is effective use of taxes not manipulating people’s personal investments.

Both the Hub and MLI are right wing sources.

They are largely subtle about it with some plausible neutrality unlike what Postmedia is today. It’s pretty much the same old institutional Consertive two bits deregulation and reduction of corporate taxes.

These are steps in the right direction. But Canada’s regulatory and tax environment [still lags]

Reframing the debate

If we want more of our own savings and capital to stay here at home—funding new plants, equipment, and technologies that raise productivity—then a more flexible and competitive business environment to increase the returns to investing in Canada’s economy is essential.

Couple weeks ago they had a 20% cashback with $10 off $80 sale that stacked. These types of sales is really the only time I shop there given how bad their usual prices are. I had to add some filler items to get to $80 but I was close anyways, they cancelled 1 of my items twice due to the website showing wrong stock amounts. This was in addition to it website barely being useable to begin with.

I really want to like Canadian Tire for what it once was, in addition to it being the only general hardware accessible to many rural Canadians but they make it really hard.

Seems like a win-win-win if this works out. A Canadian company would get some much needed business, most of the world probably feel better with that software arrangement and China could at least plausibily say they’re not doing any bad things on the front.

Open source would still be the best but that’s another whole ass can of worms.

Joly said there are “active conversations” on how domestic firms might complement new Chinese investment into Canada’s auto sector, including with software developer QNX, which is headquartered in Ottawa and owned by BlackBerry Ltd. On a recent trip to China, Joly met with Chinese auto firms BYD Co. Ltd., the world’s largest producer of EVs, and Chery Automobile Co.

People are to focused on the plausibility on the seperation. Which would be nation ending levels of bad instead of what the general existence of the group does.

If we look at America, the true MAGA segment has never been anywhere close to the majority, but the 2 party voting system and the supposedly more sane right wing voters that are willing to vote with them has brought us the America of today.

This is similar with how Danielle Smith is trying to have directly influence the judicial system. She’s unlikely to succeed in this case but in a already flawed system like Trump she’ll eventually be able to slip things through then we end up with another completely comprised institution.

Losing avenues for accurate news is going to be very detrimental to society. And as someone who’s posted a lot of criticizing the state of news we’re only probably half way there.

Not sure if it needs to be said but that’s 14 years and 1 pipeline ago and we’re still having the same dialogue if not regressing to something even dumber like the Conservatives saying BC should make sacrifices for the good of the country.

Before it failed, a 2012 report from the University of British Columbia’s Fisheries Centre examined several economic futures if the pipeline were to be built.

In a world where no oil tanker spills occurred, Northern Gateway was estimated to provide B.C.’s coastal economy $628 million over 50 years.

But if a tanker ran aground in the Hecate Strait off Prince Rupert, the combined losses from a spill the size of the Exxon Valdez disaster could reach $308 million—erasing nearly half the benefits from the pipeline.

They use water for evaporative cooling in addition to closed loop systems.

This is the actual report:

This chart shows while the broad numbers is the same the underlying mechanisms of how the money gets there is different.

Ultimately I think people are taking a bit of time to substantially shift their investment portfolios/strategies. People generally tend to be a larthargic for this type of thing and taking some extra time to think of about how your life saving should would be considered prudent especially given the times. I imagine 2026 will look even more different and even when Trump’s out of the picture he’s most likely permanently pushed some money out of America.

Just going to point out this is a republished Post Media article.

It’s always kinda funny when I read this and other circumstances where people come together to more effectively do a thing and then people start to say we should expand them into programs to allowing strangers to the same.

Just a more fragmented form of socialism. Also amazing how modern conservative around the world have been able to vilify any degree of socialism as evil.

This stuff is as fake as the American Second Amendment being untouchable. Totally okay for them as long as it’s kids getting gunned down as soon as it becomes a threat to them it isn’t a thing.

And I do think people find literal Nazi’s very justifably threatening and turns out people on the left also has guns so I don’t think this will stick around even if they pass something for it.

Betteridge’s law of headlines is an adage that states: “Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no.”

Kinda crazy if you think from a Conservatives perspective.

You get to listen to 2.5hrs of how the last 10 years in Canada has been hell on earth due to the Liberals. Delivered by the guy who somehow lost one of the easiest election ever and extended your suffering.

Then the guy tell you to bring him back and the crowd applauds.

Will say given how things went down. Pierre and his supporters seemed to stack the deck for him to win.

Certainly seems more believablet that some MP’s were waiting to jump ship if Pierre came back.

We just spoke to Sebastian Skamski, Poilievre’s former spokesperson, for some initial reaction. He’s even more definitive than Outhouse that this sort of result will quiet the naysayers and put to bed the idea of any more MPs defecting to the Liberals .
