“‘Sometimes I find Canadians don’t actually realize how good they have it” said IMF’s Western Hemisphere Department head.
How fucking true that is.
That’s right. Canada is literally at the top of the G7 when it comes to financial strength at the moment. Carney is currently spending heavily in defence and infrastructure, while at the same time has actually cut taxes. You hear that, you morons? He’s cutting fucking taxes, building shit, and making us less reliable on our batshit insane brother to the south to stick up for us on the world stage, both financially and militarily.
None of the mouth breathers will understand this, but Canada’s debt to GDP is 43%. Most of the rest of the G7 is nearing 100% at the moment. Do you understand how fucking good that is? Yes, it’s not where we WANT to be, but compared to everyone else, we’re at the top. Can you understand this isn’t a Canada problem? This is a global issue. And, we’re doing better than everyone else. Just because it’s not what YOU want, doesn’t mean that it’s not a fucking cake-walk compared to others. Perhaps it’s time you travelled somewhere other than an all-inclusive resort in a country who’s entire existence relies on culture-less white people asking for chicken fingers and complaining because they don’t have Molson Canadian on draft half half way across the world. Who am I kidding, these people wouldn’t fly for more than 4 hours.
Anyways, isn’t it wild what happens when you elect a guy who doesn’t just understand global economics, but actually worked in it for fucking decades? You’re all making up these conspiracy theories about the New World Order, and how the World Bank or whatever controls everything, yet your knowledge of international relations peaked in grade 2.
What’s the word from Pierre Milhouse these days? Complaining about gas prices? Maybe he’s forgetting that we’re selling gas on sale right now. He’s crying “Carney is badly educated in economics”. This is satire, right? You literally have the guy who saved the UK from financial collapse, who has served on governments of both Liberal and Conservative leadership in serious financial roles? The guy who graduated both Harvard and Oxford for finance. And then there’s this dweeb who got lasik and hired a personal trainer, but has nothing to show for himself that he’s literally ever done in his life besides qualifying for a full government pension since he was 31 years old? This is your guy? This is your god? This is your entire personality? That’s sad. You’re sad. Really. You are.
Perhaps that’s why so many Conservative MPs are crossing the floor to the Liberals. And, wouldn’t you know it, if you look back in history, there’s a long list of conservatives crossing the floor to be Liberals.
- 1867-1872 : 9 Conservative MPs cross to join Sir John A. Mcdonald’s Liberals.
- 1993-2003 – 8 Conservative MPs crossed to the Cretien Liberals.
- 2025-2026 – 5 Conservative MPs have crossed to the Carney Liberals
But, what about Liberals crossing to be Conservatives? Glad you asked. From 1917-1921 a total of 16 Liberals crossed to run as Unionists (basically Conservatives) during the conscription crisis. This was the sole reason, effectively. Sir Wilfred Laurier (Liberal leader at the time) opposed conscription, however the majority of the country felt as though this would be needed to help win the war. They also believed we owed a moral obligation to provide troops.
We had already suffered major losses in Vimy Ridge and Passchendaele and after a visit to Europe, PM Robert Borden insisted that the Canadian armies would be wiped out and collapse unless help was sent. The country stepped up, and Liberal MPs crossed to allow this to happen.
Perhaps this time it’s the Conservatives crossing to ensure the country stays afloat during one of the most desperate times of our modern era.
