Liberal policies made us reliant on the US but aren’t the conservatives saying they are going to protect Canada’s sovereignty by trading with the US and using those profits to invest in the military? Wouldn’t that make us dependent on the US to solve the sovereignty issue that was started by the US?
A 70+ conservative was just praising that harper lowered prices across the board, do you mean to tell me a conservative would lie?
“Someone else is trans and now i can’t go to church.” What a fucking dumb take.
A lot of conservatives i know think trump is right and that Canada is being subsidized by the US. One has even started to claim he will move to the first province that joins the US
Their pollution continues to exist for decades to centuries after the election, creating a legacy that their candidates can only dream of.
On average, working from home doesn’t decrease car trips overall. The only solution to traffic is viable alternatives to driving such as transit or cycling.
Edit: y’all can keep downvoting me but here is a study that goes into deeper detail. The only solution to traffic is alternatives to driving cars, this has been proven many times over many metrics and demographics. link to article
As a young person (<30), many older (50-75) people keep telling me its my only hope to vote conservative if I ever want to afford a home and have a good paying job. Present any opposition they’ll claim you’re following the lies and dooming yourself, and you are also now part of the problem in their eyes.
The secret is, their voters don’t believe in climate change. There was no climate change in the 50s and remember how great that was?
We are seeing good numbers in advance polling. I think this year will have a better voter turn out than most recent years.
Ah geez its so hard for our kids and our grandkids to make ends meet. We better vote for the party that wants to privatize public services and cut funding for socials programs. That coupled with all the tax breaks for the rich will really pull them through the economy. I just wish there was more we could do.
The vast majority of gun crime is commited with illegal firearms or firearms stolen from legal owners. IMO money would better be spent on better enforcement of illegal firearms and compliance checks on legal owners rather than spending the money buying backs guns that were obtained legally and have not been used for crimes.
I’ve met people who just get stoned all day and dont think twice about driving
I always explain it along the lines of “increased immigration didnt cause the housing crisis, it was just the final catalyst needed for people to notice it”.
Maybe the crisis had finally gone on long enough to be noticed or maybe people felt more comfortable now that had someone to blame but reality is this crisis has been decades in the making.
The moment cities started ripping out street cars and bulldozing buildings to build parking lots was when the crisis officially began IMO.
Canada had significantly different gun laws and most of their current guns or accessories may be illegal depending on magazine capacity, barrel length, or specific model.
All I claimed was that alaskans would have a hard time giving up their guns to join Canada. I never claimed it was impossible to live rurally without a gun.
And many of those people hate Canada’s gun laws. The guy i work with from kapuskasing would gladly have Canada become the 51st state if it meant he could have more guns.
I think Canada’s gun control laws would be one of the biggest factors preventing Alaska joining. Many people depend on their guns there for hunting, defense against wildlife for themselves or their animals, and for self defense. Many people live remotely where police response times may not be fast enough to respond to a violent situation.
I think the poster is trying to paint the picture of America being the neighbor and “coming over” as an invasion.
Encouraging more highways, more cars, and fighting against alternatives like cycling.
It wasn’t an avian terrorist, it was a malfunctioning government drone! Birds are not real.
