  1. Let’s go to Ottawa now. But I am afraid that it is already too late.
    Clearly, we have a collusion of all MPs in a plot to defraud the entire country of their entire equity.
    They can be arrested now by anyone since they had committed an indictable offense. Check the law – anyone can arrest another one who is in the commission of an indictable offense in Canada.

    3. Yes, and we have the second amendment and the weapons to back it up. Oops, this is Canada, no such freedom. Freedom is only the freedom to do as you are bloody well told. Yes Kate we do need a new country but a country is just dirt and geography. What we need is new people and not third world welfare immigrants. People who want freedom from such as we are now being exposed. But, and there is always a but, a lack of intellect is the overriding problem.

  2. “…passed by MPs in 15 minutes without reading legal text.”

    Conservatives too?

    Noooooo! You’re shittin’ me!

      1. Well Cuomo is creating a Monolithic “future” Health system in NY, (seamless top down) We have know for years that Monolithic systems suffer from common mode faults, a simple mistake results in total failure… The longer you operate in a monolithic system (normal during Emergencies) the greater the risk…

        Social Engineering is a curse and or evil

      1. I have said this in the past Edward, I am the only living conservative in Canada. No one has proven me wrong to date and I always am willing to stand shoulder to shoulder for freedom. For some reason the times I have bucked the system, and there are a few, I am always alone. Maybe the folks at the Rebel would stand with me but they have never really done so. I have wasted words in letters and voiced my opinions and ideas to PM’s of every party to no avail. They are all crooks.

    3. You do know that Trudy’s 50 percent Carbon Tax Increase will put all the monies back into the Canadian governments coffins coffers and parliament members stock market investments?

      You Government says Thank You..

  3. I think that I and just a few friends actually make budgets and live on them. We also follow the tried and proven financial advice that you should always have 3 months money on hand for emergencies. Clearly, we are the “stupid” ones.
    I agree about a new country, because Canada is so “hooped” for the next 40-50 years. I once read that it took Great Britain over 50 years to climb out of debt due to World War II.
    Oh well, based on family history, I have about 15-20 years left to live. As Captain Capitalism states so eloquently, “Enjoy the Decline!”

  5. Newfoundland and Labrador, meanwhile, is living off funny money from the Bank of Canada because nobody at all was still interested in covering St. John’s’ bad cheques and St. John’s couldn’t cover civil servant salaries on its collapsing revenues.

    To our masters, ruining millions of hard-working Canadians is fair game. Letting a civil servant miss a meal is an outrage.

  6. Might as well blow all your savings on hookers and blow because the federal government will be coming for your savings.
    Anyone smart enough to manage their money is going to pay.

        1. “One can never have too many books, too much red wine or too much Ammunition,”

      2. More fun when you’re the one squeezing the trigger. Loved days on the range.

      1. Very true. A barter economy is the natural consequence of economic collapse. And there’s a lot of game out there; sometimes on the back lawn.

        2. I see in Venezuela only the well armed…government and not…get to eat. But, neither seem to be interested in hunting game.

        3. Very few people would be able to sustain themselves on wild game. The large majority have lost the ability to hunt/gather. This includes the native guys.
          Wild game lives by it’s wits. You have to know how to how to hunt in order to get close enough for a shot. Then if you drop a moose you need to know what to do with it.

          My guess is that if things really went south city folks desperate for food would immediately turn to murder, killing pets for food, raiding zoos etc.

    3. Stan, that would be me. Retired on my own dime and watching the government inflate the dollar and reduce my ability to purchase the things needed to sustain life. Mapped out and planned by me and mapped out and planned by the government to take it from me.

  7. At 2 percent, that’s a 7 billion dollar a year interest bill, assuming the principal is never payed back.

    1. No problem, it’s denominated in Canadian dollars so we just print money to pay it back. We’ll simply inflate our way out of debt!

    2. T L H, we haven’t paid a dime on the principal of the debt Justine’s father created. Strange, but Canada was in pretty good shape financially before Trudeau 1. It has been all down hill since then , even the conservatives did not staunch the flow of debt.

  8. With this will come runaway inflation….which the politicians will pretend to fight.
    Then after a time the banks will move interest rates way up to shrink the money supply and bankrupt our kids and destroy the value of your assets.
    We have seen this movie before.

    1. “ With this will come runaway inflation”

      But it worked so well for the Weimar Republic …. didn’t it?

      1. Huh? I paid 20.5% for a mortgage in 1980, up from 12.5% the previous year and double digits for10 or more thereafter. Oh, Pierre was PM and some Frog named Marc LaLonde was the “finance minister”. But we Boomers are the problem I’ve heard. What, we didn’t lynch the LPOC back then? We’re saving it for you, Mills.

        1. PO, you nailed the problem, a lack of lynching. I sold my third house in late 1979 just before the rate hike and did not buy again until the rates went back down to an acceptable level.

          1. I bailed on mine, rented it out for the next 6 years while I lived in a rented apartment and worked across the country where ever work was. A lot of it didn’t require but a company address, while I lived in a bush camp, all seasons. Mailing address a friend with an address. Plenty of advantages to that, Income Tax wise. I made $50k a year but taxable income was almost poverty level, after real estate losses. Alberta paid my health care. Capital loss on the house 6 years later. Sometimes the tax laws work in your favor. Sometimes you just get lucky.

      2. And Zimbabwe! Don’t forget their recent experiment with runaway inflation.

        I hear Venezuela is also well down that road, providing the model for Ottawa to eagerly emulate

  9. It’s all about shoring up “confidence” – just so turdo and morno and the rest of the Ivory Tower Trash don’t take a bath on their investments.

  10. First the government destroys the resource sector and associated jobs. Green jobs are like ferries, people speak about them but nobody has ever seen one. Then, the government borrows an obscene amount of money on our behalf. Now we are in debt slavery for generations. I see how this game is played.

    1. Ferries? I’ve seen lots of them. Been a passenger on quite a few too.

      But fairies, now that’s a different matter.

    2. Lorenzo, being from BC I have seen 100s of ferries.

      In grade one my daughter provided the teacher with a life long anecdote. Asked if she knew the difference between a ship and a ferry she shot her arm up and answered, “A ferry has wings”.

  11. Most Canadians could care less about government debt.
    I can only assume it is because they hate their children and grandchildren and or its because they are as ignorant and stupid as the day is long.
    When it comes time to pay the piper will even one politician have to pay the price?
    Nope.

    2. I think many Canadians think the economy runs on debt and that is the norm. No one has ever been taught that one’s debt should never exceed one’s equity.

      1. They buy houses, too. .Gov is eying all of us with no debt, property and cash in the bank/RRSP/savings as the “bailout of last resort” for the Mills up to their eyes in debt. Plus themselves. Euthanasia will be our choice. “Do it for a Mill”. I’ve signed up for “A Viking Funeral” instead. No heirs.
        “Oh please don’t bury meee, down in that cold cold ground, just have them all pack in wood and light it all on fire, you can toast my toes and fry my guts, I’ll never leave a stick or a brick, for a foreign invitee” – sung to a John Prine tune. RIP.

      2. I do not personally, know five Canadians, not involved in organized crime, whose equity exceeds their debt. Do you?
        Insupportable debt IS the norm in this country and it looks to me like we are about to pay the inevitable price.
        But I thought so in 78, 88 and 08. I gotta be right one of these times.

        1. My debt never exceeded my equity, the one time it came close but I quickly got rid of that problem. I have known many people who worked the same way I did, some became very wealthy others are much like me, with no significant debt other than purchases on credit cards to keep them useable.

  12. The beginning of the end started on October 2015.

    It ends when there is no more wealth from other people to tax.
    I’ll give the optimistic prediction here now.

    In about 8 months the US will be into a full blown recovery while Canada is selling off the family heirlooms to pay some interest on the debt and with at least one province declaring insolvency the creditors will be demanding Ottawa do the same or they sell the debt to the other lenders/liquidators. That’s when the US makes an offer that Ottawa won’t have a choice but to accept.
    But it’s just a prediction.
    That said, the prospect of having recognition of God given rights instead of state given rights is something I could get very comfortable with.
    Just sayin.

    1. Offer? HAHAHAHAHAHA! They’ll just walk right in and take over. For our own good and especially theirs. The alternative is learning Mandarin. I hear it’s kinda difficult to master.

      1. “ They’ll just walk right in and take over”

        Well, I did say an offer that could not be refused.

        “Mr Trudeau it’s the US on line one”
        “ Hello, thith ith the Prwiy minithter of Canada”
        “Oh hi, this a courtesy call on behalf of President Trump from the assistant to the under secretary of the state department, just letting you know that Canada is now a protectorate, and the commander wants to know where he can park his car.”

    1. Was wondering the same about the release being an April Fools joke. If so, its in bad taste

    1. That would be an excellent idea.

      Making selling out Canada have consequences—and cutting off access to credit of corporations that got rich from building the Chinese economy, not the Canadian one—would go far towards making sure this didn’t happen again.

      Forget it. Bay Street control the Canadian money supply, which means they make the rules. Consequences are for people stupid enough to work for a living and believe in God.

      1. I call balderdash and horsepucky!

        The Liberal Party is going to beat up the big banks to the advantage of regular Canadians.
        Sure they are.
        Probably like they beat up the Media, SNC-Lavlin and Bombardier. Shower them with cash.

        Apparently the virus is now affecting people’s minds.

      2. That is a stupid article The charted Banks handle/distribute the Government’s Money… they borrow from the Bank of Canada @ O % and lend it @ market…Zero risk except for losing their charter… The Banks are an Agent of the Government….WTFU

  15. There’s no getting around the fact that we are staring a monster recession (at best) or Depression (at worst) in the face. A capital-D depression. Almost every country in the world outside of S.Korea & Taiwan failed to nip Covid-19 in the early phases, which was the only way to avoid it. Once the virus set in, economic catastrophe was inevitable. No matter what party is in power at any level of government in any country, province, state, etc.

    This is going to be nasty. There’s just no getting around that. There probably never was. Rant & rave at Trudeau all you want. Neither Scheer nor Bernier nor any other mythical conservative leader would have steered this ship any better. Events have outrun them all. Take care of you & yours as best you can.

    1. So you’re saying that Scheer or Bernier would not have closed the borders essentially inviting the CHina Virus into the country and they would’ve given away all our medical supplies to China like Turdhole/Butts did ?

      1. Yes.

        Scheer was and is liberal lite. He wouldn’t have done a damn thing to upset China any more than the Liberals would.

        I’m not convinced Bernier would have either, not that he ever had a prayer of forming government even if he had won the leadership.

        Canada sold itself out to the Chinese long before last year’s election. We’re talking way back in the Chretien days, effectively, if not even before that. There would have been no travel crackdowns on China any earlier, no refusal to give medical supplies, any of that. Don’t kid yourself.

  16. Yesterday I was at a Calgary Co-op store checkout when the kid doing till asked me if I wanted a 10 cent “compostable” bag. I said “no I’ll do the cheaper bag” to which he smartly replied “there is only one bag. The compostable one”. Spontaneously I said “Jawohl!” surprising even me (it fit the moment a little too perfectly). Has Canada become a Nazi state this quickly right under our noses?

    1. I use CO-op (Shawnessy), quite a bit and will gladly take their compostable bags a $.05 per….not $.10.
      At that price it’s cheaper to do so than buying specific dedicated compostable bags to use for food waste. Plus they come with handles….what’s not to like..??

      Musta been your first time in a Coop…

  17. Does it matter? I’m not even being glib. The existing debt was never going to paid back, no one in the next 10 generations would have seen zero public debt. So really, who cares.

    Let them spend. They love it.

    1. It does matter. It’s not about paying it back, it’s about the cost of servicing it. The higher the debt goes the bigger chunk of tax revenue goes to paying interest. I believe we are already at the point where interest is the single biggest government expenditure. If we were never in debt we could decrease taxes by about 25% and have no change in the level of government “services”.

      1. Debt servicing costs on federal debt is only 11%, but this is mostly due to interest rates at near 0%.

        With massive spending we’re looking at a structural deficit.

        So many chickens coming home to roost at the same time.
        #1. Liberals hell bent on being woke to the point of economic destruction.
        #2. Housing bubble from the liquidity injected from the 2008 recession.
        #3. Oil price crash (Canada’s biggest export)
        #4. America First President.
        #5. Global plague.

        Now the Liberal plan is MASSIVE deficits. Unlike America this could create a “honourary third world country” balance sheet again and bond markets won’t give us the money we need. So we print it which drives down the Canadian dollar and drives up inflation. Then the cost of borrowing grows because of this. It’s a vicious circle.

        I suspect Canada is destined to become a Northern Argentina. We think of ourselves as being an A-league country, but we really aren’t and haven’t been for a long time. It’s just holdover culture from the WW2 era.

        If we become Argentina, that will probably be best case scenario actually.

    2. I think this spiraling debt is part of the overall Globalist agenda – and this pandemic may just be the opportunity they’ve been looking for.
      I expect that the goal is to drive all nations so far into debt that they convene a UN/Globalist convention to do a financial “reset” across the board – with a single global currency, based on something like blockchain so no one can hide their incomes from the taxman – and a single global financial administrator. Whether they are successful or not depends a lot on whether the US can be either removed as an obstacle (by Trump losing in November), or be sidelined by the US economy being hurt so badly by the pandemic and the oil price war that the US dollar is no longer the world reserve currency. I hope I’m wrong.

  18. That’s only $10k of debt per person. Must be April Fools. Surely 2Face would borrow at least a $million from each of us.

  19. At least one good thing could come from this, once a depression starts setting in the idea of separation will go from a pipe-dream to a hotly debated topic amongst western Canada

  20. I have found no confirmation anywhere of this story, after an admittedly brief search.

    But, it got me thinking of our current predicament here in western Canada.

    I have had little hope for WEXIT, basically because of my experiences living through the Reform years. It is quite depressing to remember how easily we Albertans were duped into taking the easy road… by putting our faith in a group of politicians who promised they were different. And we got hosed when it became apparent(to many of us) that they were really just the same type of all-talk no-action bullshitters who got western Canada in this fix in the first place. The current CPC, which is ultimately the bastard child of the reform movement itself, is now f*cking dead to me.

    How many years did it take us to figure out that “The west wants in!” was really code for “Eastern establishment conservatives want to manipulate westerners to regain power for themselves”? I can’t ever see myself supporting the CPC again, unless by some grand miracle their infrastructure is hijacked by an inspirational conservative outsider in a Trump-esque fashion.

    And now we find ourselves in 2020 and the hounds of western separatism are justifiably howling again. This time, I see many big differences, though, some good but most of them bad.

    Firstly, there are even more justifiable reasons for the west to want out, now. If Trudeau’s reign has proven anything these past few years, it is that we western taxpayers now have NO political influence back east… NONE.

    But, the west is now seriously infected with leftardism, itself. It is undeniable, yet it amazes me how many will not accept this simple fact. I have much fun with my Albertan friends and family whenever they try to do the “we voted in the NDP purely by accident” dance. It is almost as entertaining as the “Nenshi has only been our mayor forever because Muslims are exceptional at strategic voting” two-step.

    People fear the unknown and separating to create a new, tiny, landlocked nation is as scary as it can get for many. Add to that the still unknown ravages of this pandemic and westerners are understandably going to run the opposite direction from the idea of any more turmoil and uncertainty… probably for years to come.

    Also, if you think the US is the answer to getting western oil to market, you might want to rethink that. Just today, I have heard talk of US refineries only processing American oil to protect their own industry. And as bad as Trudeau has been, how do you think you will fare shipping crude oil down the road with a President Chelsea Clinton or President Sasha Obama?

    Personally, I think WEXIT is the only answer, but I also believe that it is currently an impossibility. From what I am witnessing, far too many westerners still cannot conceive that not only is government not the cure, it is in fact the disease.

    Wow, so many more thoughts on this subject, but I better stop here before I am told to get my own damn blog. 🙂 Thanks as always, Kate, for supplying the forum to vent once in awhile.

    1. CO.

      Very littl to disagree with there whatsoever.
      I did not Vote CPC although my vote (PPC), was totally drowned out by the CPC sheep in my riding…as so apparently happened in pretty much every other Prairie riding. Fkuc them Permanently. ASS kissing Liberal policies and Liberal Ideas.

      NOPE…I get their garbage in the mail and via e-mail to which I respond to tell them they have lost me as a supporter, my card went into the shredder 8 months ago and basically to FK off and leae me alone.

      I too see little hope for WEXIT…on Social media it appears to be infiltrated by AntiFa types stirring up shit along with a few NAZi type White Supremists… Not interested.

      I didn’t at first, but now lean to a deal with the US. Sick of this BS country, its brain dead Eastern Half, it’s Media and the perennially Corrupt Quebec pandering LIBERAL Filth they always seem to prefer….its been that way since I turned 18 in 1970, coincidently just as Pierre was putting his stamp on this country.

      I was here in Calgary for his NEP and its aftermath…it was not pretty. We shoulda left then.

      Time for a change…or its time to emigrate south.

    2. C O, trying to live life as a free man has become impossible in the world today. I am glad that I do not have that many years left. If the west goes it will unfortunately be going nowhere, sad but true. I won’t even try to explain why.

  21. Her Majesty’s loyal Opposition missing in action… somebody has some explaining to do.
    To justify their existence to those who have a survival option, Wexit.

  22. That is much too little. Spend more. Throw money at us until we are sick of seeing it. The more they give us the richer we’ll be. Let’s get on the foot-feet hard and run this sumbitch over the cliff. Thelma and Louise style. Canada has been a dead country walking for 40 years now, kept alive by the Alberta ventilator. Trudeau et al unplugged the ventilator years ago.

    Been saying this for years. Anyone with money sitting in a pension or rrsp or tfsa etc, it is about to get disappeared. Either through inflation, taxation or both. Or maybe they’ll just take it. They have dutifully kept track of it all these years. Hahaha.

    PS: I am just as much to blame as a Trudeau voting Newfie. I supported Manning, Harper, Mulroney (not Scheer of course) when I should have been supporting western separation. We should have escaped this confederation decades ago when it would have actually mattered.

  23. Bill c-12 shows as an old bill from 2016.
    So at this point it’s looking like a well played bad joke.

    Sad part is it’s entirely believable based on Trudeau’s attempt to give himself unfettered taxation powers last week.

  24. Being a retired boomer with enough resources to last until the failed Canadian political and health systems decide to cull me out of the herd, l will go with the warm knowledge that this health fiasco and coming financial disaster is not on the boomers. It is on the head up their arses Gen-Xers. This is Trudeauly f’ed up beyond belief.
    It needs to be said loudly “Justin lied many people died!”

  25. Trudeau this morning, “we’re putting measures in place so we don’t overload the system (for getting government promised funds)”

    Translation: the public service is staying at home, our disbursement systems aren’t working, and we have no idea when we’ll be able to send out the money.

    Now it is a tough task, in tough times. I take exception to Trudeau lying about it.

  26. I just wonder who the hell would be stupid enough to lend Canada money at this point.

    3. Nobody needs to lend them money anymore, when is the last time you saw a Canada Savings Bond.
      Now they just print money at the Bank of Canada (or the Federal Reserve in the US) and call it a loan. Then they use that freshly printed money as justification for the fractional reserve system to print more money.

    4. China will loan us the money and we’re stupid enough to take it. As it stands now China owns more of Canada than Canadians do and it will be a simple matter for them to own the rest at fire-sale prices. Canadians have been swallowing the BS, spoon fed by the government and the CBC for so long we can now no longer distinguish between chocolate pudding and the sh*t that we have been eating for the last 70 years. Even now politicians of all stripes are gorging themselves at the trough because they know their time is running out, why else the blatant power grab that was attempted last week.

  27. Where is Moroneau? Is he infected or isolating in fear?

    Most of us who are isolating we are going to have a different look when we get free, our hair will be in need of professional attention. It looks like Trudeau’s hair is getting lighter every day and looking more like a cow patty.
    Silver threads among the black dye?

    1. Well, he certainly isn’t hiding at his Dascha in Tuscany. Probably never be able to, now.

  28. And so the Libranos reveal part of their endgame.
    While everyone is shut in the Conservatives self lobotomized and handed the keys to the pantry until Sept 30.
    Parliament is closed and MPs have to watch what they say.

    Why is Trump talking about 2.2 TRILLION infrastructure spending Bill on top of the 2 TRILLION Covid19 spending program Congress just passed?

    Why did hundreds of CEOs resign just prior to Covid outbreak??
    https://www.businessinsider.com/bob-iger-keith-block-ceos-that-stepped-down-in-2020?op=1

    Since were in conspiracy theory territory now here’s a link to Prison Planet
    https://www.prisonplanet.com/why-did-hundreds-of-ceos-resign-just-before-the-world-started-going-absolutely-crazy.html

    1. As I wrote previously, Juthtin knew the pandemic had started in December, knew he’d let it in to transmogrify Canada and so he grew a beard so he could grow his Serious Face for the next act. Or is it the denouement?
      Think PM Idiot-stick was the first to know?

  29. This has to be an April Fools joke.
    $350 billion Canakastan is nowhere near enough to sate the Politicians greed.
    With the resounding success of Zimbabwe and Venezuela,there is no way Jerry the Butt and his lisping sidekick would not be content with a mere $11 000 per citizen.

  30. And don’t forget the carbon tax was increased today. I didn’tn here the press asking Trudeau about that.

    1. That was the main reason I watched Trudeau today and not one of the Press tools asked that question. Let’s face it, they’re counting on that money but we won’t be buying much for some time, we will be heading into recession/depression.

      1. Brunswick News, owner of all Media in New Brunswick, did not mention in any of it’s many newspapers that the Liberal Carbon Tax increased by 50% today.

        Embarrassing that a wealthy family can actually own a province and its people in this day and age.

        But then again, in a Liberal One Party Country, with Canadians not being smarter than your average fool, anything is possible.

  31. The first thing as a citizen in the 51st state of Alberta (face it, we’re not going to change the name), is going to the county Sheriff and apply for my SHALL ISSUE CCW.

    LMAO

    1. I don’t know.

      All this talk about Wexit is hilarious.

      Billions and billions of found oil money squandered.

      Notley, Nenshi, Redmonton, Douglas, Lotusland……etc……..etc…….etc.

      And oil at 4 bits to pay for it all.

      Conservative West alright.

      You might require a gelding with that carry permit.

  32. Tell me, what can a guy do?
    You mail your “Conservative” MP to point out obviously totalitarian power grab and you get back an already prearranged form letter completely avoiding the subject.
    Is there some kind of democracy in this country or what?

    Who you gonna call?

    1. Lev, there is a democracy but it is populated with people who want something for nothing on one hand and people who want to control those people on the other hand. In a word our system is broken. If it only saves one life.

      1. Nailed it. I lost my faith in people a long time ago. There was a point in my life I thought people would listen to rational thought about why it was important to have a small government, but very few ever bother to consider the facts. They just like the thought of not having to look after themselves and that’s all that they see in their window. Poor people like the idea of big brother looking after them and rich (very rich) people like the idea of having a large centralized government for them to concentrate their lobbying efforts at. (Bombardier, SNC Lavalin etc etc etc). Middle class suckers pay for it all.

        I don’t know if we’ll ever see the pitchforks and torches directed towards the real problem. Doubt it.

    2. I have a few close acquaintances that I am prepared to call, Mssrs. Smith and Wesson, Lee Enfield, Sam Colt and a few others,

  34. How C.A.N.A.D.ian! All of you have just gotten robbed and all you do is whine. Pathetic!

  35. All money is fake, IOU’s to be paid back to the central bankers. One day they will foreclose and own everything anyways.

  36. Well on the bright side we now have 13 years left, with this massive economic downturn. (satire alert)

  37. In the USA the Dollar is backed by “The Government’s Good Will & that the Government is creditworthy to borrow” (paraphrased)

    The Obama administration violated both when they raided SS & Medicare….The Payroll taxes that are held in the “individual accounts” of the Employee…. The administration USED all of the money for regular operational budgets & issued Bonds (IOU) that was “commingled” in a Trust Account….Obama & Pelosi used those Bonds, which allowed them to print Trillions of new currency…Theft is an act of bad faith…..

    JMHO

  39. Why do I want a new country? Because every time I look at the news lately, every time, I scream “FOR F#*!S SAKES!” at it. Canada is a flaming train wreck.
