Nauseating. Listening to Andrew Failure Scheer on Power & Politics rn and it’s abhorrent as is the entire con party of Poilievre fluffers as professional rim jobbers to fash.

Everyone is so mad at the cons who havent held power for a decade, meanwhile the party that won was ordering unions back to work and importing UN wage slaves to depress salaries, as they borrow money to buy half of all mortgage bonds to provide more full recourse loans to for-profit banks to extort the population during a clearly deliberate housing crisis.

I think that the capital gains tax hike Carney already rolled back was all a ploy to win the election, as was Freelands fake outrage over the massive budget overage. The party that won is just an entity that scams the population to continue to rob the poor; who knew Trudeau's best before date was expiring, and orchestrated Trudeau's further unpopularity in order to bring in a savior to roll it all back and promise to restore fiscal sanity. Yet everyone is here clapping about our current situation while we literally have no labor party, after the NDP likely intentionally destroyed itself via a rich lawyer in a rolex, who hasnt raised taxes on the rich a solitary dime to fund anything despite holding the entire balance of power in his hands.

Canada is screwed, we've been scammed again. The rich orchestrated all of this, and nothing about the Liberals plans have changed; the immigration numbers are the same as planned, the spending is the same, the entire cabinet is the same. The wealth inequality will continue to grow, and if you're poor you'll get to keep your unfunded dental checks while your cost of living continues to rise far more than the scraps you are given.

The most clear proof is you've never heard Carney talk about the housing crisis prior to the election, you've never heard him say a single word against forcing unions back to work, never made mention of the insane spending or negative per capita GDP growth, it was radio silence as all these terrible things happened. The most progressive thing he did was make millions promoting ESG for Brookfield to sell investments at an inflated markup, because Brookfield is an alternative investment corporation, no different than Blackrock whose fees are also significantly higher on ESG funds they promote.

I'm mad at both, alas the NDP or Greens didn't campaign hard enough, and the liberals campaigned really well under the threat of Canada electing a conservative government that would threaten their sovereignty.

Thankfully, it wasn't a majority win for the liberals. But I think you're right that a lot of the existing problems will continue.

We can only hope that we get a labour party rebuilt from the ashes that can make some stronger plays.

Also I do want to say, Carney did mention housing crisis prior to the election and campaigning. Just so no one does a "gotcha" on you because of it. My memory is vague but it was still the same hand wavey acknowledgement the previous liberal government gave. So your technically right, just trying to get ahead of anyone else saying it.

Is "The New Republic" serious or a joke site? I cannot tell as the headline is too strighforward.
