Warren,
Typical Trudeau-NDP circus.
As for the Conservative motion, made us look stupid, especially if the leader isn’t there to support his own motion, which apparently, everyone on the CPC team already knew was a waste of time.
Anyone who thinks the next election will be fought and won on the carbon tax is foolhardy.
Carbon tax will be ancient history by then.
Douglas,
It will probably only resonate in Saskatchewan, and not in the way that the Trudeau Liberals would hope. As for Atlantic Canada, they like most of the country are already sick of Trudeau’s face, so exempting heating oil from the carbon tax won’t produce close to the results that the Liberals had hoped.
On both of the above points, if it is till a thing, it will be an election issue.
Let’s suppose it did make us look stupid(and I am not conceding that), to whom? Not to mention it is a binary choice, and the Liberals are doing something stupider basically weekly.
Martin,
You should concede that. We came off as amateurish especially with Pierre not being in the House to support his motion. Clearly, they need better advisers to wake them up to politically reality.
Like Warren said, turn off the sound and watch that vote and watch us lose. We looked like a bunch of dummkopfs…
Martin,
Here’s the rebuttal: a) the last thing we should be doing is acting like those fools;
b) we live in a world of double standards where some people are looking for the flimsyist excuse not to vote for us. Never give them that excuse. Ever.
Ronald, about all I will concede is that MAYBE we didn’t gain anything from it. And just remind the people that were upset about him not being in the HOC(just for the vote), it was the Liberals that are permitting MPs to vote virtually. Odd they would have an issue with just following rules THEY created.
Warren,
I expect Housefather to sit as an independent. Doubt he’ll win again if he’s no longer a Liberal.
Housefather ain’t goin’ anywhere. Otherwise, he would have been gone by now.
He’s an important voice in the Liberal Party, so I hope he sticks around, and he should know he has all kinds of support.
Curious,
All kinds of support? Good. But probably not in the Palestinian PMO in Ottawa.
Warren,
Let me caveat that: politicians can’t tell police what to do, but they can and should tell them to do SOMETHING.
Warren,
B-I-N-G-O!
Warren,
UNRWA funding is the ultimate example of the shameful incompetence of this government. Time for them to go.
Municipalities in BC that have storm water infrastructure have had a Storm Water Levy for years. In Campbell River it is itemized on our annual property taxation and services bill.
Calgary has a storm water levy, but it’s based on the amount of tap water you use.
I could be wrong, but the proposed rain tax is based on the amount of hard surface you have on your house or yard.
I love the story of Chretien and Harper sharing a car. That is the best thing I’ve heard about in politics this year, actually in a good long while. Canada – actually the world – needs more of that stuff.
Gladie a banger and, yes, Sidney Gish not your typical go to.
One recent mapped out poll showed the Bloc as the opposition. That would be ironic given PM Mulroney’s passing. His old coalition dominating the HOC. Couple of interesting ideas on X. If that polling holds, maybe the Bloc would help bring the Liberals down. Another was that in order to deal with the issue of MPs wanting to hang on until 2025 to get their pension(which they have proposed legislation to deal with using the excuse of a religious holiday (HA HA HA HA HA HA HA)), give it to them now and call an election.
Martin,
Agreed but they are gutless so we might as well forget about it.
Warren,
Too funny. What a riot: demon seeds hawking Bibles! This isn’t even the topper. They can still go much lower.
First UHT last year and now bare trusts this year and, as predicted. Another ridiculous roll out.

And they basically do it 10 minutes before the deadline. Not sure who we see about all the time we have wasted on behalf of clients dealing with this.
Martin,
Bill Ottawa!
