Leaders debate (in English)

[redleaf]

I guess I may be as guilty as anyone of cognitive dissonance, but I really thought Pierre came across very well. Carney did ok but I really don’t believe anything he says. The French guy shouldn’t be there in the first place and Jagmeet wouldn’t shut up while the grown ups were talking.

Agree, Carney's#4 out of the group.
his plane ticket is already booked out of Canada.

Carney won because he didn't lose.

Still made it sound like he is making us an energy superpower including O&G.

Most of the sheep hears him say much the same as the conservatives are saying.

Singh reinforced that when he said there was no difference between him and PP.

Singh and Blanchet were lecturing him on leaving the climate crisis behind and he just went all moderate.

Didn't watch but gawd I hope GF right.
He'd helo out faster than you can say big money.

Back to Davos to take over Schwabs job

I started watching but then fell asleep and missed most of it!
Woke up near the end and from what I heard I don’t think I missed much?

If the Greens couldn't be there why was the REGIONAL BLOQ there? The Bloq doesn't run candidates across Canada. The Greens do albeit they never had one in every riding.

The only message I got from the Bloq was how unique(language, culture and "values") they are. I think he even stated he didn't want to be Prime Minister of Canada...

I never got a warm fuzzy feeling towards his comments on pipelines, oil and gas compared to their "clean energy". I'd say cut off the transfer payments! I think he even eluded to "Quebec's" money staying in Quebec.

Yup, I'd say its about time the West enjoys the same status as Quebec. His comments were telling, but somewhat shocking when you hear them said.

Quebec pop: 9.1M
BC pop: 5.7M
Alta pop: 4.9M
Sask pop: 1.2M
Man pop: 1.5M

Even without BC the Western 3 Prairie Provinces aren't that much smaller than Quebec, especially if you take out the ones in Quebec that consider themselves more Canadian than Quebecois.

Enough pandering.

Oh yeah, Carney called the C-tax divisive! Thats why they "paused"(my word) it! And changing the Capital Gains tax because entrepreneurs and corps that take risks shouldn't be punished.... hypocrites. I hope people see through it

I so badly want a change. 10 years was enough. 2 minorities and a Government that would have never survived without being propped up by the NDP. ???

[furrowtickler]

Never watched but thanks for the Cole’s notes Farma .
Change will happen one way or the other

The other question is why did the debate commission allow Rebel News and True North to act as journalists, when they had registered with Elections Canada as third party right wing activists?

They bullied the scrums at the french debate and then were responsible for disruptions prior to the post english debate scrums. That caused them to be cancelled.

They are clearly not even trying to be journalists or balanced in any way.

The Commission screwed up big time.
