I voted Conservative but I don't mind Carney. I wanted a Conservative Prime Minister and we got one... lol... he's slowly turning the Liberal party into the Progressive Conservatives

We all wanted Libs to move back to more centre - less apologies, less drag queen library readings, less IG posts, ... so yah, here we are. Don't like everything about Carney but 100x > PP and the far right wacko Cons to be in power.

How does that work when you only have 2 people in your party?

And Dallas Brodie is no longer leader if the party she founded.

Weren't there a couple of pages of RS posting their quiz results prior to last election, and everybody just wound up being a filthy centrist? That was super anti-climactic :lol

Correct.

Lots of wankers here talking like big tough far-right testosterone-pumped Conservatives but really are just hippy-loving centrists on ED meds. Makes me wonder how many of them really are in the private banking stratosphere. :gay:

So it sounds like it came down to a fight over how racist the party should be and Dallas lost as she wanted some super racist guy to be fired and the party said no (not sure if Dallas felt he wasn't racist enough or that he was the wrong kind of racist).

It's all hilarious though especially as the dude's name is so not white.

There's a thread on X about it which I can't read since I closed my X account:

I was still a communist.

Hey Carney, how about the PM get his minister in charge of emergency response to help Abbotsford??

The federal minister in Canada responsible for emergency response is the Honourable Eleanor Olszewski, the Minister of Emergency Management and Community Resilience.


Spend our taxpayer dollars to help the people of Abbotsford! Maybe answer the Abby mayor's phone calls too??

Abbotsford Mayor Ross Siemens says he remains “profoundly disappointed” in the federal government’s response to the city’s request for help following the 2021 floods. “To say that we are disappointed and frustrated is an understatement,” Siemens said Friday (Dec. 12) during a news briefing at Abbotsford city hall in relation to this week’s flooding event. “Once again, the safety and well-being of our residents, our farms, our livestock, provincial food security and provincial economy – and even our national economy – remain unprotected and at risk.”

Siemens said the feds have not even reached out to him this week. He said the city has done everything it can – “including almost standing on our heads” – to tackle the problem, but they need federal funding and support. Both the major flood of 2021 and the one this week occurred when the Nooksack River in Washington State overflowed its banks

Siemens and two other B.C. mayors – Micheal Goetz of Merritt and Spencer Coyne of Princeton – held a press conference in June 2024, saying they felt abandoned by the federal government after being turned down for millions of dollars in flood infrastructure funding. Siemens said on Friday that he appreciates the support from the province, and he also needs the federal government to “really be engaged.” “Enough is enough. We need action, and we need action now,” he said.

This whole OneBC thing is nuts - I really can't tell if this is about not being racist enough or about being the wrong kind of racist and the main actor is some brown guy who allegedly wants to deport brown people.

GS8, is that you? :suspicious: (I am kidding)

Interesting you mention this. I worked with (past tense) an Indian guy who feels the same way about Indians in Canada. He now lives in Calgary and I suspect (emphasis on suspect) he might be involved in this movement someway, somehow.

Poilievre says MPs defecting from Conservatives 'a problem of Mark Carney's leadership

Lol what

Sounds like that fat demented slob down south, just lie when the narrative is bad for you and hope your base it too dumb to call you on it.....Sad part is I'm part of that base federally but not with this doucheflute at the helm.

Lol. A normal response would have been something to the effect of: "Those former conservative party members obviously disagree on the path of the country moving forward and they're making the wrong choice, it will bring more harm to the country".

It's like he just can't seem to grasp why he's failing so hard, and he'd rather double down than change his strategy.

One trick pony. When everyone took issue with Trudeau it was easy to look good by criticizing him, but when it’s carney no one has those strong feelings except for the ones who aren’t smart enough to differentiate current liberal platforms from prior, because they just think “ohhh librul bad!”
His rage base is much smaller and it’s all he appeals to.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but probably once a week I see someone who actually invested in changing over to F*CK CARNEY stickers on their car driving around Calgary.

So far it's been exclusively old rusty Rams/Silverados/F-150s or a super dilapidated 90's CRV or Ford Escape type vehicle.

Real cream of the crop types.

This is something I've noticed a lot, and have been wondering this to myself.

What is up with these brown guys that seem to be carrying the torch of white nationalist ideologies?

They're in the Trump admin, they run rightwing/conservative bot accounts, they're within the rightwing parties in Canada, and even anecdotally, I find most brown guys I ran into seem to parrot hardcore conservative/red pill anti-progressive ideas, and these are Canadian born guys, not just FOBs.

It's jarring to watch these guys fall over themselves to be accepted by whitey, meanwhile they're hated by these same people they're dying to be accepted by.

It's utterly bizarre.

I do think they are feeling the heat that they may not have been a decade ago. There are a lot of old immigrant/first gen Canadians from India that probably weren’t the target of anti immigrant racism, or a least not such a popular target for quite a while.
They are watching the new immigrants be blamed for unravelling that progress. I’d obviously blame the racists, but that’s not the easy route. That said there are plenty of new immigrants bringing some unenjoyable characteristics with them, but it’s not fair to judge Harpreet who’s working 2 fast food jobs to support his family for the actions of harpreet who’s participating in extortion of EI businesses. But people are too ignorant to differentiate.

I have been told (by said Indian guy) that it's often a strategy used to shift public perspectives and ideology to adopt conservative politics and it allows them (Hindu Indians) to blend in and slowly grow their influence to ouster other Indians (i.e. Punjabis, Indian Muslims etc.) Whether there is any truth to this is unclear to me. There is a large support base of Conservatives in suburbs like Brampton and is it by chance that they are Hindu Indian?

There is another theory (again, by same Indian guy) where the hatred is spread on social media channels to generate profits and donations as a means to generate income. Ethics and morals aside, some people have profiteered on the hate and right-wing ideology, so for them, they use their programming skills to their abilities to generate income for themselves while everyone else gets riled up.

I am not sure how true any of this is and there is no publicly available evidence to support this. Take all of this with a grain of salt and not the truth.

If it means anything, I haven't heard from said Indian guy in months so I'm not sure if he's dead or alive but towards his exit from work and since moving to Calgary, I felt something was off. (No offense to anyone who lives in Calgary.)

You meant every word of that as an offense you twisted little man!

Fuck Carney? Nah… Fuck Barney! Yes, i hate that dinosaur

Canada just had its biggest population decline on record apparently? Mostly due to Visas not being renewed and changes to TFW program.
I’m interested to see how this plays out in terms of the job market. Unemployment is high right now. Will Canadians take the jobs they were mad at immigrants for taking? Or will we have historic vacancies in relation to high unemployment coming up soon.
I’m not against the changes to the TFW policy even though you’d probably expect me to be, although it’s because I only saw it being used as a tool for cheap labour for shitty employers, not a positive for new immigrants.

Maybe Little Jimmy will put down his game controller and go get a job at Tim Hortons and learn the lesson of a hard earned dollar... lol

lol

trudeaus plan all along

they throw cash to get to Canada and pull their rug
