Bad omen for the GOP…

The man was poison in my mind when he was at CNN. I’d change the channel when he’d be on. He was demoted to morning tv and didn’t get along with his co hosts and was subsequently let go. He’s been trying to stay relevant. Looks like he found a way to stay in the news…

Some are very top heavy with executives. Lots where I am at and they have been warned that some will be WFAed. Hasn’t happened yet though but it’s coming I think,

I didn’t see that exact breakdown. https://www.ctvnews.ca/ottawa/article/more-than-8000-jobs-to-be-cut-across-24-federal-departments/#:~:text=The%20Treasury%20Board%20of%20Canada%20Secretariat%20released%20data%20showing%208%2C230,through%20attrition%20and%20early%20retirement. This article...

Who would want to move there…

Yeah, from about a total of 1700 employees or so. So from what I can see this is only core public admin departments.

Phase 1 so far.

True. It is also because the younger generations don’t have the same level of militant action that the older one has. Quebec Separatists are dying off. I think they already had their kick at the can. I’ve shown above why that is a myth. Alberta sends just over 2 Billion to equalization...

He would have been inadmissible at that time unless he applied for and had gotten a waiver. He was denied entry in 2018. But yeah, he was travelling to attend a TED conference. The unusual part is being allowed in with his record.

It’s a bit of a complicated formula (one i admittedly don’t have a full grasp of) but Ontario has a higher income generation per capita than QC (which is below the national average). That and its population means Quebec gets a higher total amount but it is spread over the size of its population...

They also forget that Harper opened the door to China in his own quest to diversify our economy.

You said all those billions came from Alberta. I posted a fact sheet that explains why that isn’t the case. Quebec is certainly the province that benefits the most from transfer payments on a per capita basis. No question. Something like 11 to 13 billion on average if I recall. Alberta is...

They have a federal party that uses the system to its advantage in conjunction with its provincial government. They’ve been doing it for quite some time. In a weird way, the Bloc has shown QC that federalism can work. They set up their own provincial police force, the QPP, they have their...

I agree that the sentiment is higher in QC and likely has a bigger likelihood than Albertan seperation. Those négociations one way or another will set precedent. If we look at Brexit, now, I doubt any other country is interested in leaving under the deal dealt to Britain for example. Myth...
