Liberal (Minority/Majority) Government 2025 - ???

[Jarnhamar]

Not sure if its appreciated enough how little things like that go a long way around the world when you step out of your comfort zone and attempt to say a few words or a phase in another language. Its a sure way to gain some instant respect and understanding.

Carney is a very likeable guy but lets not blow this a bit out of proportion. He rhymed off some words in Japanese for 8 seconds. Level of difficulty - making your thumb disappear in front of medieval villagers. I can say stop or I'll shoot (and some other pleasantries) in 3 different languages. Let's not canonize Carney for saying bless you after someone sneezes.

 

[Jarnhamar]

The difference is authenticity. The fact that Carney lived and worked in Japan in his past made his effort to speak Japanese authentic and heartfelt.

Cosplay on the other hand...

A real study in contrast between the two.

Carney can definitely read the room better. Would have been nice to have him as PM 20 years ago.

He was busy as Sr. Assoc DM at Finance.

Lol, its the effort not the duration that counts.

I hope there is a link to a box of tissues for all the tears and self-loathing.

Don't know. I don't need them. I'm sure you've got one bookmarked you could post? I posted it because there are many people , who unlike some, prefer not to be Carney’s ass kissers. Some still care about having a more honest government.

Why would I? I'm not the one with crippling Carney Derangement Syndrome that comes to an Army site to incessantly post for years about how this country is seven days from self-destruction.

thanks for the link. Whether I agree or not it is good to look at someone else's take but only if you take the time to investigate each point rather than saying yay or nah.

You're a hoot. Compared to your TDS, at least I'm asking for a better CANADIAN government. I don't spend my time here incessantly and almost psychotic raving about the US President and government, like you've been doing since 2017. I moved my position on trump awhile ago, so I don't much care what he's doing anymore. You do a good job about keeping me informed about trump and his hegemony.

It would probably be more useful to find a link that wasn't burdened with a clear bias against the Prime Minister and that appears bent on simply finding (or fabricating) fault as opposed to providing a balanced assessment of his mandate.

Maybe something like this would be helpful.

Clothing is NOT the same thing - not even close.

ah! He could have done a lighter shade of black face as well to complete the appearance. Wasn't criticizing Carney by the way, just highlighting the differences in our past and present leadership. To be honest, I don't trust Carney but I can respect him as a leader and cheer him on with what he is trying to achieve. I am just a little skeptical as to when action will replace rhetoric.

Thanks. As you say, make sure to check out any points worth considering. There is nothing wrong with exposing one of the worst Canadian governments in history. I posted it in case anyone was interested. Just an FYI.

Using a link with a clear bias is good as it counteracts all the CBC et al free advertising. Having said that, your link is good and appreciated, thanks

Tanks! Nothing wrong with another tool.

We agree there. I've had CBC blocked on my TV for some years now.

Germany doesn’t trust PM Carney and Canada’s ability to supply oil and NG: Foreign Minister Wadephul.

Germany needs to 'see it to believe it' when it comes to Canada boosting gas exports: Poilievre

Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre made his pitch for more Canadian natural gas exports directly to Germany.

Germany doesn’t trust PM Carney and Canada’s ability to supply oil and NG: Foreign Minister Wadephul …

… according to what PP said he heard/felt in a closed meeting

He’s too smart to lie, but I’m going to apply a grain of salt the same way as hearing PMMC summarizing someone else’s thoughts/words that we haven’t heard. Especially when he asked the Germans about perceived ability to build infrastructure. Optimists’ll say it’s a fair question, pessimists’ll say he’s looking for attack ammo. Looking forward to hearing more.
