Leslyn IS running

Good point. It does, but how much different would conservative support have been $ wise for the pandemic?
Support should have even more targeted, as a farmer I did not suffer like some business, and we all took the free 20K
Some with multiple corporations, multiple times.
To fast and not well thought through.

I did not take the 20K. I must have been the only one.

I have to omit that I considered applying for it but deep down it didn’t feel right.

Maybe Charest is baiting Harper to come back in.

Brian mulroney is still alive right!! Are we grasping at straws.

[blackpowder]

I could not believe I saw Charets' face in an article again.
Open door for Freeland someday. She's building creds with this Ukraine thing.

I didn't take it either.

But I know a whack of local staunch 'Conservatives' that did, and then spend their days around the coffee table criticizing all those people that took CERB money and the Liberals for not doing anything to support the 'poor' farmer.

Either Mulroney or Harper would be better than Charest. And why not Mulroney , he should be close to senility like Biden.

The only thing I have learnt out of this is the people of this country should choose the Prime Minister , not a single riding as in this case Papineau, or the party that are filled with a bunch of cheerleaders.

There are Canadians far more qualified to run this country that the current set , doesn't matter the party, and Canadians deserve much better than this flock of fools.

Here Canada sits with the third largest energy reserves in the world along with alot of other resources, and the government is crippling canadians economically.

Politicians are out for two weeks and yet the British parliament is sitting considering everything going on.

Its disappointing.

Damn right I took it. But I keep very quiet. I know some small sole owner retailers who couldn't qualify. Not fair.

Again. What is this free 20 grand you all speak of?

CEBA for $60k, $20k is a taxable grant. Repay by December 2023 . Interest free.

My family and I worked , never took a dime , as with many others .

Didn't take it either, my financial institution said there would be a good chance of audit by CRA.

I can't be bothered with that.

There was a better way to assess need for Canadian small business than just throwing out 100 billion in CEBA.

I like Leslyn or Pierre but would really like to see Leslyn take on Justin.
White male is considered to be the most privileged demographic in society and Black immigrant female the least privileged. Justin likes to act like he is the most supportive of that group and the Liberals would struggle to try and make her look bad. She must be smart and hard working to get to where she has gotten to.
Plus it would be good for the Conservatives to elect the first Black female to the head of the party and have the first Black female as Prime Minister!

Leslyn Lewis and Pierre would make a good team against Trudeau but it won't be Trudeau they will be facing.

Not a fan of Charest or Brown.

And by the next election Canadians should be tired of the liberals , Freeland will be the liberal version of Kim Campbell. Besides who can stand to watch the bobblehead.

There won’t be medication strong enough to control freelands tic by the next election. She is always packing a bundle of papers in her right arm to distract her now. Pretty soon she will need a bundle in her left arm as well.

Carney worries me more than freeland going forward.

I for one never thought this farmer needed any help , but lotsa young fellers sure did
We have good crop ins coverage and have an excellent relationship with them
Mind you we didn’t miss 3 or 4 crops like some on here
Wished they could target and help the guys that need it and not the guys that drove rent to $120/ac being the local big wheels while collecting rent subsidies
Anyway liberals huge huge deficits started long before covid
As far as the free $20k , for the second $10k add on they had to sign off that covid was a hardship, that’ll be a big mistake
