Saying you’re liberating CA from duly elected officials is insanity.

There should be 99 other Senators condemning this action by the Trumpstapo!

This feels like it would be an excellent day to lay low on the US Canada file. We all know what happens to the third man in the fight ! PMMC should have enough hockey savvy to let their fight play out first. There’s time.

To be clear the bottom 99% of the population is giving the top 1% the bulk of that $2T. They will not thank us. They will ask for more and insist we give up our end of the social contract to pay for it.

Doesn’t the process involve consultations with and between provinces and indigenous nations? I am not sure what part of that I misunderstood.

Not sure Carney ever promised to ram anything down BC’s throat. BC is not powerless in this situation and neither are the indigenous nations. Trudeau built them a pipeline to zero credit. Perhaps it’s time to see if they can work it out among themselves.

We should worry when the cheques get written off our account. Let's remember his plan is to be a "catalyst" not to be funding these things. Not standing in the way is very different than paying the piper...

This entire administration feels like satire or a really bad dream!

Unfortunately his talent would be wasted in the NDP federally. His leadership style is active based on getting things done. He would struggle in the role of “conscience” that the federal NDP seems to want to play.

As a wise man wrote…”Readers have told me that they are unimpressed by criticism written in the first minutes of the marathon. It’s a perfectly valid point.” Question period is a very poor barometer of competence - pretty much zero Canadians outside the political class give it attention.

Someone call Jake immediately. He might want to write another chapter.

Anyone who did not believe he was going to be laser focused on the economy and bringing the provinces and indigenous people to the table - with the compromises that naturally entails - was fooling themselves.

Smart ass comment #1: Isn’t describing something as indescribable describing it? I’ll let myself out!

Once RE starts to crash it’s pretty quick, months not years. Inventories grow fast. What we underestimate in the boomer market is how fast they are aging out of large homes, how many have second homes like cottages, and how many will sell their primary before prices crash to buy out of the cold.

You can’t decouple that easily if you want to eventually resell or lease the housing. Once housing costs completely outstrip wages markets need to adjust. Basic economics will tell you there is always an upper bound. And maybe we’re there now.

And there would be a lot fewer of them fighting for those!

People wanted and voted for something different. Let’s give “different” a real chance. Many pundits liked the “before times” because they had a well established routine with the same contacts willing to leak and inform. “The times are a-changing’”!

The new KKK. A wholesome collection of racist incels. The courage of masks and dark glasses. Assholes!

Interesting. My experience was that once the market started to give way people who had a lot of paper gains, long time owners, were the first to lower prices to capture their max gains at the expense of late top-price buyers. Boomers are in the driver’s seat. Let’s see how they act.

So hopeless, then? I’ve been through two market collapses - 2005 Bay Area and 2012 DC area - not even touching on the 2007-8 mess. In both cases it took about 10 years for prices to recover. Is Canada impervious to market forces like that?

Will never understand why RWNJ can’t just choose to not attend these “elite” universities they hate so much instead of trying to destroy them. It’s insane!

If incomes don’t keep pace with housing costs why do we believe that housing prices won’t fall to affordability, especially if government policies work to grow supply. Isn’t that basic economics?

Definitely turning it around - from good to crap. I guess that counts too!

Timmy should give Melania a jet, make Barron an SVP and pick up some meme crypto. Much cheaper than building a white elephant plant!
