election 2015

[tmyrfield]

Trudeua just said small businesses are just tax havens for the wealthy, some tweaking is in order.
If liberals or ndp get elected you can kiss goodbye to the qualified farm property capital gains exemption. Most urban people believe that farmers are in the 1%.

[freewheat]

Yet they want to vote for Junior, who is certifiably, and through inheritance in the 1%

[farmaholic]

Nothing stopping them from buying a money pit, err, I mean farm. Have at it. Free country....

[westernvicki]

Small business are the backbone of an economy. Did Trudeau really say this...?

[fjlip]

Polls show NDP has the best odds of getting the most seats, Gormley today.

[parsley]

Agree tmyrfield. Thhey'll retain trust fund rates and candy, but yank cap gains because it will hit corps, and farmland. Pars

[Oliver88]

Crazy that he said this.

Also mentioned the first thing he'd do as PM would be fight climate change by FLYING TO PARIS for a summit.

[sawfly]

while i hope if the NDP wins they don't do anything really stupid.
tax or business wise

after all the liberal crap . Harper could have been in power a long time. if he was just a fiscally responsible Conservative.
when he was in a minority he did not do too much damage.
once he got the majority, look out,
a bunch of brain dead ministers, all muzzled. everything from the top.

nobody managing nothing,
apparently , by the Rail mess.

Just another corporate puppet like Mulroney ,passing laws
selling out the country and it's people.
2% of what he brings in comes from a Conservative convention.
98% from head office somewhere .

and probably a holy war to top it all off.
just my opinion

Doesn't matter who wins in Oct. as Canada is doomed. All are guaranteed to do the wrong things. The Conservatives less wrong than the other but wrong none the less. At least with Trudope we get to smoke weed while the ship sinks.

Harper is looking deflated lately.

Like he is has already given up.

Must have a good board seat lined up already.

[newguy]

Conservative campaign last two elections were very successful making opposition look very bad.This time their ads have back fired.Long election to break opposition was not a good idea either as social media is free and are having a hay day with him.And what do you expect from reporters digging them after a Conservative broke and called one a lying piece of sh##.This election may be the first one Harpers very inner circle tried to manage instead of the whole conservative party and it has been a disaster for them.

[bucket]

I said in another thread the conservatives ads on trudeau make corporate canada look bad.

So much so that Macdonalds took out ads embracing youth.

Something to think about.

Sure trudeau not ready but it was a bad ad. And they are still with it.

[foragefarmer]

Harper only takes five questions from the media per public announcement or public engagement. They are not allowed any follow up question, but are forced to listen to his scripted answers.

Harper shouldn't have called the election so early as it hasn't even hit the half point and he looks like a tried, over weight, old worn out man.

The Duffy questions keep coming up from the media and Harper continues to answer them with lies, stating he knew nothing about the $90,000.00 Nigel Wright cheque.

Harper must really think Canadians are not smart enough to figure out that it's obvious he knew exactly what was going on with the Duffy cheque.

[farmaholic]

Too bad the personal attacks and slamming wasn't put to rest and the campaign run solely on the parties platform.

Maybe because they don't have one?

American style politics.

Attack the people not the policy.

[jake550]

I agree farmaholic. The personal attacks get old fast.

Just be ready to pay a lot more taxes for a lot less services.

The NDP will ruin the best country in the world.
