:thumbup: Unemployment at 40 year low point.
I guess a lot of people stopped looking.

The dollar and Trump's effect on the US economy have been a huge bonus for Canada that is for sure and selling out the future of Canada for power at the cost of billions of dollars is probably helping too!

I guess your marks weren't that good in english but an issue is often defined as a problem, things like:
1) lying during elections speeches
2) lying about deficits and budgets
3) while others for the same reason are deported putting what can be considered an illegal into election reform
4) refusing to have a referendum on election reform essentially because you don't want the people to have a say
5) marching across the floor of the house of commons and elbowing a woman out of he way while dragging another MP
6) allowing the sale of a company to China over the protests of the US, CSIS etc.
7) ignoring Canadian citizens in prison on religious grounds in China
8) a vacation that cost taxpayers about 5X the average Canadian's salary
9) Finance minister found guilty of ethics violations
10) picking your own ethics officer without consultation from other parties
11) refusing to answer questions in parliament
and I can go on and on as examples of issues.
P.S.
I forgot the used jets ...... that is not idiotic but a slap in the face of any family that has ever had anyone serve in the military but a kick in the balls to the ones in there now!
Only if you count part time McJobs.Quote:

It's impossible to fuel and sustain a vibrant economy with a largely transient labor force.Quote:

One year is in the link above, Statscan has the public listed for last year increasing 85,000 and private 200,000Quote:

The jig's up with your Liberal pals. We all know bullshyte when we hear it. It's the same as somebody pissin' on your leg and telling you it's raining.Quote:

Now now.... that went out with cocaine for head aches and hay fever or reading the bumps on a persons head ..... in this case the "server" has a personal emotional gain but there is no wisdom gained by the "recipient"....in this case maybe alot of personal satisfaction and gain...... but hopefully as education improves and data becomes more available and properly examined in the long term, liberalism and communism etc. will be seen as dead ends and mental issues with reality and the will disappear into history too.Quote:

Some just simply deserve a good kick in the gonads? You are definitely one of them.Quote:

Not so much ..... I think Heinlein has it right in that ....
“Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst. Breeds that forget this basic truth have always paid for it with their lives and their freedoms”
― Robert A. Heinlein
So maybe a few kicks might jar a neuron or two into working but .... the Libertarian view is closer to mine in many ways and unlike the all the examples we see of the left in history and in the media using it, I do like this quote.
“Libertarianism holds that the only proper role of violence is to defend person and property against violence, that any use of violence that goes beyond such just defense is itself aggressive, unjust, and criminal”
― Murray N. Rothbard
The left hates the idea of self defense though based on the evidence too!!! They usually have more empathy for the criminal .... heck they even elected a PM that uses violence on the floor of the House of commons when he got impatient and even breaks the law in office.
But the reality is though that
“People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.”
― George Orwell
HMMM .....so Bushmoose might have a point and there may be societal benefits and once done maybe even sleeping better ..... there is perhaps a case for it :scream: :scream: :scream: ..... NO NO NO Still not a good idea though :p .
Ok, I'm not a man of quoting quotes. And I'm not a violent man. However, sometimes a person who is threatened with a kick in the gonads, will succumb to common sense and curtail an antagonistic attitude toward the persons providing the route and direction of said common sense?Quote:

Once it becomes , agree with me or.......... Free speech is curtailed under threat of violence.

I agree he is a troll in many ways given the definition of the such and his arrogance is only matched by his ability to ignore reality and history and science etc. but given current attitudes on violence and the litigative enthusiasm to silence voices even jokes aren't acceptable anymore. Idiots and activists just look for excuses to ignore the facts, twist and revise or attack so they can muzzle anything but their views so I would suggest not using them or he might go crying and whining to a moderator etc.. I mean he is like a kid that won't believe you on something like 2 plus 2 equalz 4 because you spelled equals wrong.
His views on free speech too are funny.... to him the right should be dismissed without thought, (just quote Fraser Institute, Sun or theRebel to him and he goes brain flat lined. They bring in experts, show the WHOLE video etc. but he can't accept anything from them.
In general I just ignore him unless I have some free time or his comments are so completely "trollish" I feel like trying to "smack" :whacked: him with history, facts, science etc. I mean after all only a Liberal would consider it an issue that employment is up. :shades:
You missed the sarcasm of calling it one of "your" issue, #s. That you never, ever, mention anything that could show Libs in a positive light. As one who believes in the christian version sky fairies , you should never bring up science , because you do not believe in it. I like the way you turn it around, as usual, and say I am trying to muzzle you because I say threats of violence to change someone's opinion is wrong. LOL.
I can’t think of one good thing the province or Canadian gov has done.
Now that’s impressive.
As someone who is in gov. Environment Canada (ECC), has hired 4632 PS, VA has hired 237, Industry Canada, 2516, DND 1018. Those are numbers I have..since 2015Quote:

Stat's Can says that there was an increase of 85,500 Public employees in Canada Dec 2016 to Dec 2017Quote:

Looks like the big government and bloated payrolls are back.... and like his useless daddy it will probably take a decade to trim and get rid of the lard and the union retards in government that never should have been hired. The number of public employees is already ridiculous and we have Wynne hiring 175 to enforce their business agenda.
Right now only 183 listings in Ontario to be filled .... and probably about 300 jobs but about 1/3 are student jobs.
https://www.gojobs.gov.on.ca/Jobs.aspx
This listing for example has 17 openings but isn't for a student.
Customer Service Rep 2
Salary: $24.71 - $28.65 Per Hour*
* OPSEU of course.
They are looking for a bunch of student, there are 59 listings for students and some have quite a few openings.
https://www.gojobs.gov.on.ca/Preview...h&JobID=116722 (14)
https://www.gojobs.gov.on.ca/Preview...h&JobID=116724 (31)
https://www.gojobs.gov.on.ca/Preview...h&JobID=116729 (24)
https://www.gojobs.gov.on.ca/Preview...h&JobID=116716 (50)
All paying $14 to $14.85.... so more than student minimum wage of course and they have the "*Indicates the salary listed as per the OPSEU Collective Agreement." so the union is likely parasiting off the students on all these..
These are not gov jobs but the job bank is interesting sometimes to.

well the statistics don't include people off unemployment (meaning those seeking jobs but not getting the unemployment or welfare checks), which includes me.
I've been looking for a job with low success since October 2017; got a 2nd interview lined up on Tuesday, hopefully its the one that gives me the job long-term.
I'll challenge you to do your own data search. Go to some homeless centers and volunteer to serve meals,not just for a couple of minutes,try a couple of days. Tour some areas where homeless people are living under tarps and talk to them. You'll soon find that instead of the stereotypical mentally ill and drug addicted,they're vastly outnumbered by unemployed or under employed who have lost good paying jobs and the financial world fell out from under them. The average Canadian who,on the surface,look to be doing well financially,are actually eyeballs deep in debt,less than four paychecks away from the "downhill slide" to bankruptcy and loss of their homes. You really need to look passed the Liberal-leftist "spin" on the financial stability of the economy.. It's far from the rosy picture they like to depict.Quote:

T , I guess that it would be hard to find, 'homeless people living under tarps' ,out where you live in the 'boonies' because they all gravitate to the GTA where the citiots can pay for, deal, and look after them.
By the time the CPC took over,the damage was already done by Liberals. The CPC inherited a raging cesspool of an economy with The Liberals allowing the WTO and IMF to dictate the shytehole we found ourselves in,unfettered. Thankfully,we had a CPC government in place during the worst economic crash since the Great Depression. I shudder to think where Canada would be had they not been there. The Liberals failed miserably to stand up for Canada and Canadians. We're seeing a carbon copy with Justin AND Kathleen Wynne. It's a disgrace and an abomination,pure and simple.Quote:
