Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

We are talking about politicians here not troops or CAF members.

Okay, you wouldn't like your doctor lying to you then assuming its fine because you should have known she was lying. Or maybe you don't care. Point being Fanjoy was disingenuous.

And not all vote LPC. And not all vote CPC. It isn’t some monolithic voting block in Carlton. The remaining non PS types also came out to vote, that is out of about 50,000 plus.

Like I conceded, maybe Carlton still loves Fanjoy are are willing to over look some political sleigh of hand.

Sure. Most MPs follow the party line. Both parties were not upfront about their plans for the PS. Not a top concern regardless,

Like I conceded, maybe Carlton still loves Fanjoy are are willing to over look some political sleigh of hand.

Or didn’t want to overlook PPs failings and voted him out. Or maybe they liked Carney. It’s not necessarily a love for Fanjoy as much as dislike for PP.

I voted for PP in 2022. Not because I liked him. Quite the opposite. But I liked O’Toole. Until Carney showed up I was going to vote CFP.

Canada 65
Australia 67
New Zealand 65
UK (major difference they use contributions 66
Denmark 67
Netherlands 67
Sweden 65
Finland 65

So all of these countries give their Seniors free money based on nothing but living in the country for 40yrs?
This is separate from their pension plans?

Carney doesn’t need to find 3 votes, he simply needs 3 MP’s on the other side to be out ‘sick’ or whatever.
It’s that simple.

MP's DO NOT have to be in Parliament to vote. They can vote remotely via a remote voting app since Mar 2021.

It is possible, I guess to be too sick to vote.

Joe Clark's government fell because just enough PC MPs were sick, plus Deifenbaker's old riding flipping NDP in a by-election and Social Credit abstaining, while Pierre Trudeau pulled several Liberal MPs out of the hospital to vote.

Strangely enough, over the last decade, when technological advances ought to have made administration of government simpler, the rise has been spectacular. And that's just the Feds. And that's just the administrative overhead and not the cost of the deliverables.

Not exactly "government" per se, but I'm strongly considering trying to switch Urologists (I'm getting yearly check-ups for Kindney stones) simply because they send me my ultra-sound and check-up appointments by LETTER and have no option for email communications or website coordinated appointments. When I lost my last letter in the pile of toddler crap that is my house, I had to call them and spend 20mins on hold to confirm my appointment time. I'm very happy with the service (this particular Urologist is widely considered to be the best in the Province), but I feel like I would be doing some kind of civic duty by leaving and saying "it's because you refuse to adopt modern technology", but in reality they'd probably be happy to have one less patient to deal with.

Our family doctor (like many I assume) still asks us to ‘fax’ documents to them regularly. Won’t/can’t accept ‘pdfs’.

All that flying around doing the groundwork does eventually pay dividends.
