Sorry but you are wrong. As a single earning decent wage. I am worse off now when Trudeau is the PM. We don't need a pretty face to be PM. We need a PM who is trying to reduce our debt so when we retired there is actually care for us. We need PM who think about future generation instead of putting them in debt before they were born.

Let's get everyone in debt by adding several hundred millions more debt in the next 4 years and wipe our ass off after and pretend it never happen.

But what's O'Leary going to do? Hide our debts, sell us to another country and then leave before anyone figures it out?

Maybe instead of borrowing hundred of millions of dollars to help other countries, screw our future generations and bankrupt the country. He might actually look after the future generations and Canada first?

Fiscally you're always going to be better off with a conservative rule.

Honestly, for the average person what has changed from Conservative to Liberal in their daily lives besides the country being in mass amounts of debt compared to a year ago?

All the people who voted for Justin thinking this was going to change things are no better off, in a lot of cases they are worse off than prior.

It's only 9 months, and we're up into billions in debt? Fantastic!

It's fucking disgusting to me that it's become a dirty word to talk about electing someone who has OUR countries interests in mind, whether that he o'Leary or whoever. How about we stop helping these countries who are beyond help and fix the problems we have within.

When wealth and standard of living can be shared amongst everyone within Canada, then we can look to help countries abroad.

It's the same reasoning with people who are so short sighted with the oil industry. CANADA NEEDS OIL they need the production into the future to generate the wealth in order to transition away from it.

Look at Brexit, Europe, look at trump, countries are finally waking up to the idea about focusing first on within and not using up valuable resources to help other countries. It's a dog eat dog world and we've got the biggest fucking push over in power. Uhggg

Perhaps O'Leary is asking Trump for advice on how to run a website at a cheaper cost.

Is O'Leary gonna use Twitter in the same way as Trump?

You're naive as fuck if you think O'Learly has anything in his head than himself.

This is a completely meaningless unquantifiable statement.

Why does Canada need oil? Since when has a country's economic prosperity depend on a single resource? Ever heard of the Dutch disease?

Jump to 3:04 and check downstage right centre of screen. Made me weep for a second. Damn, 2011 was a very good year. From February 1st to September 20th. CAD was doing well and I just sat back and watched it.

Biggest issue is one prime minister or one president cannot change a country. You have hundreds of MP, congressmans, politicians whose entire career is basically relying on talking and sucking up to political donors.

Look at Jenny Kwan NDP. What the fuck has she done for the community she represented? I only remember her for the portland society travel money. lol

Until we have smart good people running for MP who actually cares about the neighbourhood they represent, it's not going to work. Every riding is basically a battleground for each political party. That MP doesn't even live there. Remember the guy who lived in Osoyoos but represented a northern riding and made us tax payers pay for his travel back and forth to Osoyoos.

So he claims he's running to be the prime minister of Canada yet he is spending his time in Miami shooting guns.
