Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

[PPCLI Guy]

Carney telling the youth of this nation to continue sacrificing has to be one of the most tone deaf speeches I've ever heard. You have a man worth 10s of millions, ethically conflicted, telling a group who will never own a home, can barely pay their rent, being burdened with insane inflation, lost multiple years of their youth to lock downs to continue sacrificing? Don't forget that it was hours before hopping on a private jet to hang with the Blue Jays before setting of on a vacation to Asia.

And I thought cutting Disney+ was a bad take.

It is appalling. Where are you going to move to in order to escape this travesty? US? Hungary? China?

He won’t. For all his complaining about the Canadian government and policy and how crappy Canada is, he’s been open about riding it out til he gets the pension. And that’s fine- but it’s useful context to qualify the depth of his convictions on the state of our country.

This is fairly big news.
It won’t end here.

Why not?
A persons 20s should include flexibility and a willingness to try new things and explore the world. By the time I was 27 I had already lived in 5 countries. In Canada I had lived in Windsor, London and Ottawa. I came from a middle class background, not lower not higher middle class, just middle class. A mother who went back to work par time when my brother and I were older, a father who after high school worked at the Windsor Salt Mine, CPR, moved out to Calgary for 9 months for work, hated it, moved back to Windsor, got work at Walker Metals and then at the old Plant 3 in Windsor Chrysler. He went to St Clair College after few years for night school to become an accountant and then moved over to the Admin Building on Pillette Rd as an accountant for Chrysler.
If I was 22-25yrs old with a decent undergrad, I’d move to Southeast Asia for work - Vietnam, Australia, New Zealand maybe Singapore, Malaysia. The Gulf States are always looking for talent in their businesses. Possibly look at Chile or Uruguay. Lastly, still lots of work in the US with a TN Visa, just move to New England if you don’t like Trump, closest area of the US that thinks/acts like Canada.

Carney government targets violent, repeat offenders with proposed bail regime changes​

This looks like a great move by Carney. It's still a little bit targeted for my taste but it seems like big steps in a great direction. Not a very Liberal-like approach, it's a good sign Carney isn't drinking the kool-aid.

Poilievres criticism of the "principle of restraint," seems measured and relevant.

Now (once it is passed) all the provinces have to do is better fund the correctional and court system.

Precisely.
