The Liberal government needs a data-driven plan

[MarkB]

Guess you missed the joke.....I was talking about something other than the budget or politics at all, for that matter. I don't need proof, any proof, I have faith, that everything happens for a reason. Lol.

I see we picked door number one ... responding with some useless information.

So I'm not sure how to interpret what you said, don't want to put words in your mouth ... can you confirm? ... you "don't need proof" (so are you saying you'll ignore the facts?) and you "have faith" (as in the budget will balance itself type faith?). Yup, sounds like a Turdeau fan. It proves my point ... Libs don't want data ... it makes it harder to get away with idiocrasy and corruption.

Very simply.

There is no reason, not one, not to believe or suspect Canada isn't heading down the same path Ontario went down. Arguably worse given the shape Ontario is in, and now Alberta/Energy. Despite crap people can see with their own eyes( Like businesses boarded up, friends out of work, people losing big chunks of their income and far far more that could be mentioned) if they are inclined to look and see with respect to the prices being paid by some. It doesn't take an economist, to think about some pretty basic things, as well as likely ripple effects.

And like Ontario, between 2006-2014ish. All some seem capable of is arguing. Not 'debating" what might be done to imporve their lot, or get the economy going. But arguing.
That's what the electorate has managed to accomplish after 14 years. Squat! That's what the so called champions of the working class have managed to do. Stand in the way of doing something for those paying the prices.

And if people think 2020/2021 is something to laugh about, or the long term effects......
It's akin to watching two adults fight and argue about who started the house the fire that their kids are stuck in, rather than doing something about it

And that's just getting started the tip of the iceberg.
No functioning parliament since this time 12 months ago...
Completly shut down to avoid a scandal
No budget in 2 years
and on
and on
and on
and on

"im curious, since this all started in March 2020. Have you lost or sacrifice anything?"


Yes I just got in my Omers statement and I have lost thousand's of dollars. Next question.

So has everyone else with $$ tied up in the markets. What makes you special?

Lost hours at work?
Lost your business?
Lost sales because people aren’t buying or travelling?
Lost your house?
lost your pension benefit? My bad, I didn’t realize your monthly check was 60% or 30% of what it was in 2019

What have you sacrificed.
Nothing

and at least you have savings or a pension to lose market value. The vast majority don’t.

Why do you quote all that crap.??

And you don’t think people being negatively affected likewise aren’t cooped up? Once again, all your doing is proving your incapable of thinking about those being thrown under the bus. Who Mr gold shield, by and large are the demographic that struggle to pay Hydro, Carbon taxes and much else that could be repeated ad naseum.

Aren’t you special....
But at least you have a roof, and income......
last sentence.
“Grats, you won the game of life..

So with respect to this thread. And government policies, lack of plans, data, and consequences for people blah blah and with the backing of their supporters

Nuff said.

You haven’t sacrificed squat Terry.
