With a Liberal government, some things never change.
Like busting in on provincial jurisdiction every time one of their bleeding hearts wants.
The federal government is signalling that when it finally unveils changes to parental leave rules, there will be provisions dedicated exclusively to new fathers.
“To put it another way, the Canadian media has actually reversed the realities of the story 180 degrees. What is being falsely presented as a story of a scrappy prime minister resisting a hostile press is actually a story of a slavishly subservient press who are actively shaping their reporting to suit the government’s needs.”

Gee. Great idea!!
Now almost nobody will have to work.
Sweet! So all I have to do is make a baby and I can leave my job.
The old pump and dump; life is beautiful.
Nothing more than a Muslim Conquista statute. White people aren’t having children. Only brown people (of all shades and persuasions) are having children. White people can’t afford them. But brown people have several families living at home to watch after them, religious orthodoxy that demands reproduction, and all manner of public (taxpayer) benefits. So brownish people are reproducing like bunnies … 3-5 kids average. White folk – 1.2 on average.
So this is nothing more than a Muslim bomb-making enabling statute. All that paternity leave can be used in planning a nice little jihadist action against the infidels. Case in point; the San Bernardino Bomber Muzlum family shooters. Squeeze out a kid in America, work a government job, lots of paternity leave to assemble a pipe bomb factory in the garage … and BOOM goes the infidel! If these two had spent even MORE time at the shooting range during their mat and paternity leave, they could have murdered even MORE infidels. Sadly, they fell “victim” to another jammed “assault rifle”. Otherwise there would be a lot fewer infidels in the CA desert today.
Go ahead FUND some jihad !! Kill those mean, cake-refusal Christians ! But save me … because I am a c-a-r-I-n-g liberal … OK ?
The provinces have to let the feds push them around.
Seeing as there isn’t one set of balls left in the entire western hemisphere, though, I’ll just watch Canada bend over and kiss it’s ass goodbye, along with the rest of the west.
At this point, I’d say “good riddance”.
My sympathy for the next generation and my grandchildren . My grown children are doing well
due the work ethic we received from our deceased parents. Somehow it did not work. Self entitlement
Is the new goal. . Where did we go wrong? I am will not be around for finale
fortunately.
Good news for the career driven, ladder climbing men! The trip to the top will practically be an escalator ride after all the guys take off to launder spit-up and finally get that oven cleaned.
We should be grateful that we have such policies from a prime minister who is just soooooooooo smart:

Great news for rabbits,polygamists and shemales.
Sounds like Clint Eastwood in Gran Turino. Get off of my lawn. He should have got the Best Actor and Best Director Oscars for that film.
Odd as it may seem, there are families where the mother is unable to take a year’s maternity leave (owns own business and can’t afford to hire a replacement. In that case, it’s the father who – if possible – takes paternal leave (with whatever EI is available) while the mother returns to work soon after childbirth.
Frances said, “families where the mother is unable to take a year’s maternity leave”
Don’t give a damn, Frances. The Labour act is explicit about where the Feds have and have no jurisdiction.
Arbitrarily deciding that they’re going to change the rules over the heads of the Provinces is a no-go. It’s an area for the Provinces to debate, for the Provinces to feel the wrath or kudos from their
subjectsvoters.Ditto here. The socialist nirvana is just around the corner.
The newly landed refugees will be laughing all the way to the bank, especially the ones with 7 kids who if three are under 6 and the rest between 7 and 18 will be collecting $40,800 tax free. in child benefits. That’s almost as much as the average salary in BC before taxes. The liberals haven’t given seniors who are at the poverty line making $17000 a year anything yet they may have paid taxes for 40 years or more and yet these newcomers who will contribute nothing to Canada for years to come will receive these childcare benefits. It’s not sustainable…this government is insane.
