Have to agree. Don't know him but based on his astrological profile, he might give a crap about doing something for the people.

Poilievre's profile makes him out to be a psychopath.
lol Bernier is even further right than Polieve.

It's not about one single policy, just better governing in general, and not having the country in record deficit, soaring costs of living, higher crime etc. Overall we just had better quality of life all around. The biggest 2 things are crime rate and economy. Those were under control until about 2015. Thing is, Harper actually called this, and he turned out to be right.


I'm not the only one saying these things either, plenty of articles if you just google it. We are in a much worse spot in many aspects of life, than we were before.


So Harper didn't implement any concrete policies that benefited you personally, correct?

He would be a disaster for Canada just like Trudeau has been. He is not for Canadians at all not to mention all the conflict of interests he has such as positions on corporate boards and the fact that he's a WEF board member on top of it. He's only in it for himself.

The only way to move forward at this point is for Poilievre to win. Maxime Bernier would be even better... but that's just a pipe dream, not going to happen.

This sums it up pretty well:

Poilievre knows nothing about anything.

Well most people were doing way better financially when he was in power so he was doing something right. Costs of living were lower, crime was lower, everything was overall better. It's not about individual policies it's about overall how well he can run the country, and he did it better than the turd has done. Harper's policy was to run the country well.

Poilievre knows nothing about anything.

You clearly have not bothered to hear him speak. He actually makes more sense than any liberal. Liberals like to talk a lot, without really saying anything of value. Kinda like Kamala did. All word salad. They will try to do the same with Carney where they create tons of fake popularity to try to appeal to the masses, but hopefully it doesn't work. Everything poilievre talks about is about concrete action and common sense. He sounds like a broken record sometimes but it's because he's repeating all the points that are important to try to drive them home. He's consistent. He also wants to put Canada first. That's a policy I can stand behind. Trudeau doesn't care about the country or the people.

I just hope he is true to his word once he gets elected. At the end of the day he's still a politician. But what other choice do we have, no way in hell am I voting liberal or NDP. I used to vote NDP back when it was a party for the people but now they're just liberals but in orange. Jack Layton is rolling in his grave.

Lol Trudeau cared for the country. But as a first world nation, Canada does have world wide obligations. Conservatives, nah a bunch of isolationists.

LoL show me his platform. Axe the Tax is a slogan, not a platform.

Doing that alone is going to help many people and businesses. But he has more plans like forcing municipalities to make it easier to build homes, boosting our industry such as oil and gas etc. Also mass deportations. We need that badly. Too many freeloaders and it's costing us too much.

Our national debt is growing by billions every month, we can't keep going like this. We had no debt when Harper was in power.

The only obligations the government should have is to the country itself. Put Canada first. That's what Poilievre wants to do.

He literally says nothing of substance. He is a Bumper Sticker.

Nutty Squirrel wants PM to help the businesses do more business. Totally ignores the Federal government put the sales tax moratorium in place to boost consumption.


Probably doesn't know Canadian economy is driven by consumers.

That hurt businesses more than anything, and consumers save maybe $7. It's a joke to buy votes. Businesses have to completely reprogram their sales systems for this temporary thing only to have to reprogram them again when they remove the break. If he really wanted to help he would just get rid of sales tax altogether and learn how to balance a budget. Turns out, budgets don't balance themselves. We need somebody that thinks about monetary policy. Trudeau admitted he doesn't.

Reality is our standard of living was better under Harper and only got worse once Trudeau got into power. Costs of living, crime, drugs, mass immigration etc... Poilievre plans to deal with that stuff, while the liberals have no plan because they deny it's even an issue.

I guess it’s a credit that you don’t even pretend that the conservatives have any policies that would benefit you and are just going on feels.

How the fuck does reducing sales tax to zero hurt business? You know tax is sent to government right? That is the tax reduction you claim to want, but it hurts the business? How pray tell.

Making it temporary doesn't do much good. If it was permanent it would be one thing and maybe actually help. But if you read into it, it's only select items. Just rip the bandage off, get rid of it entirely. The amount of legwork to go into the POS system and add in all the exceptions is a lot of tedius work, only for something temporary. Some businesses probably even had to pay someone OT in order to do that, so it cost them in the end. This stunt was 100% to buy votes. Just like the dental care that only helps a small percentage of people or the $10 childcare... which we all pay for.

It increases consumer spending. First world economy is driven by consumer spending. Don't talk about policies when you don't even understand that. Childcare support is very popular, probably a more popular subsidy than the Northern subsidy. You wouldn't understand since you are an Incel.


Programming the POS is pretty simple, and it is itself an economy stimulating activity. Stores have that as a regularly scheduled activity.

As always... you have no idea what you're talking about.

People have to buy stuff regardless, it doesn't really change behavior much. Some people might decide to go stock up on alcohol or something, but that just means that they won't buy it later. This is just a stunt to try to buy votes. If he actually wanted to help he'd have made the change permanent. Also get rid of tax on utility bills. That would go a much longer way to help people. And get rid of the carbon tax. But instead they plan to triple it in April. That will hurt everyone including businesses.

Two thing can be true.

It was a stunt to try to buy votes, and stop Trudeau's popularity from plummeting. It failed spectacularly.

It's not complicated to adjust sales tax on items. We're in 2025. Yes it may take some time for smaller shops to manually update some code, but this is part of running your business.

Why is it the Liberals do what you say you want the government to do but it is no good? Are your feelings on policies based on who enacts the policy?


Have you decided if you believe Fraser Institute or not? You dismissed their report I posted here but then posted another of their report to support your point.

I like how RS claims to be doing poorly economically, yet (as seen in OT) he keeps making random, unnecessary purchases to further his expensive off the grid fantasy. Sounds like the economy isn't so bad and perhaps it's just psychosomatic.

He's like the idiots flying MAGA flags from their $50k boats all summer long crying about how they can't afford eggs and milk.
