  1. They are all the same liars. Doesn’t matter what party.

  2. The problem isn't the passion, its the economy plain and simple. We have been duped into a mortgage poor slave nation because of Liberal and lefty nonsense. Canada has resources and little else. Instead of electing governments that work to supporting businesses that want to bring these resources to market we have elected Liberal goon squad after goon squad who bury us in debt instead of enabling us to make money. So we get what we have today which is generations of financial losers coming up the ranks. Our own children To think that so many parents of these children who are getting the short end of it AGAIN voted Liberal and voted for more of this debt nonsense with Carney. Stop being so blind Liberals have it wrong. There is no need for any of this

  3. We all have our central banks to thank for “printing” or increasing (however you want to look at it) the total fiat supply by about 40% over the span of about 18 months during our recent pandemic. You can’t add more currency units to a monetary system that fast and not expect prices to rise especially if you have the same amount of goods. No man should be able to just print money that another man has to work for. They usually don’t increase the money supply that fast. But during times of economic crisis or warfare, it gives them an excuse to increase the supply and debase the currency. This has been proven time after time throughout history. The more they “print”, the weaker the dollar gets, and it’s not like our goods and services are becoming any better quality either to justify the increase in prices. I think we can all agree the newer stuff just isn’t built like it was years ago. Our dollar is shite, and the current prices on almost everything proves that, and unfortunately with this war going on, it’s giving them yet another excuse to print more and more money. Not to mention the US is $37trillion in debt and prints daily just to service the interest alone Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the printer will continue to print, and inflation will also continue until people just lose faith in the currency and ultimately, it fails. it’s not a matter of if the currency fails, it’s when.

  5. Home depot yesterday. Purchased 3 pcs of non vented soffit, 3 2x4's and 4 interior use electrical boxes with switches/plugs. $167 Even basic home maintenance costs are getting out of hand. If I had to hire the corresponding contractors at a minimum of $100 per hour plus service call/consultation fee's it would easily be $1000. And that is a conservative estimate. Our kids dont stand a chance if they dont have family that can afford to invest in their futures.

  6. They are willing to pay whatever it takes - vs sleeping in tents on the street. That is the point People are "willing" out of necessity to pay double what they should be because there is NOTHING else available. Our government had a very heavy hand in helping create that particular portion of the situation

  7. Blows my mind when I see folks that seem like they have their head on straight most of the time - go and blame The Feds for housing prices. Housing prices will follow what someone is willing to give for it. It is a supply and demand market. When the trend is going a certain way, it will continue that direction for a while, before swinging the other way again. It was the easy money from The Flue that seemed to start this trend for whatever reason. And "work from home" is certainly influencing housing further from the eppicenters, and raising values in rural areas, and especially lakefront properties. Just b/c you are willing to pay the new asking price, doesn't make it someone elses fault that you are over your head. Buy a rat trap the next time. .

  8. One big issue that the younger generations face is growing up now with so many accepted and encouraged drains of the wallets! That have become like a necessity! Cellphone bills internet bills Tim hortons or Starbucks multiple times a day fast foods Uber Eats or Skip Uber itself Just so many more ways to easily spend little bits of your money these days.

  9. This is one issue with short term management. Just like Wall Street only cares aboot the last quarter, or they may replace the CEO, the country only really cares aboot how we are dooing today. How many voters want to suck-it-up-buttercup? Most will vote for the can kicker b/c that makes today more better.... Unsure if there is ramifications later or not. Average Joe does not run a for-profit business. When you have a longer term management team, like China, Russia, Japan (?) - then you can accomplish longer term projects. .

  10. We can solve this we just need to turf the Liberals pronto and start pressing the go button on resource development. Even then, we have a lot of work to do and we cant let much get in the way of this. We've had more than enough obstructionist radicalized idiots steering the boat into the bottom of the ocean. We need some serious stewardship and teams of solid support staff and companies to get us moving upwards. We also need to draft new laws preventing politicians from using any debt at all. They can only use last quarters taxation intake for next quarter and thats it. Enshrine into law a debt retirement plan as well. Then its really how fast we want to accomplish this. Then we build a sovereign wealth fund like Norway. This will take time yes for sure but think of the mids of our children and future generations how they will see Canada and the pride they will have for this great nation vs the Liberal despair and dystopian world they are creating. Its so damn obvious its literally insane that we are not doing this. The sell is easy. The goals are achievable and reasonable. Its all those total a-ho Liberal boomer voters to blame. Wake the heck up and snap out of it the Liberals and NDP trains are completely off the tracks barrelling down a mountain side with no soft landing ahead

  12. I have a buddy that wants to go. Always chirping that he will come and I can loan him a sled. I tell him buy a nice used sled for $7,000-10,000 and he says I can’t afford that. I have too far to drive….. I say sorry I don’t loan my sleds to friends. I will loan my sleds to the right friends who can afford to buy it if they wreck it. My main riding buddy and I will happily switch sleds any time. But if you crash it they take yours until it’s fixed. Just our deal

  14. Yep. I see it every where that if you want to save $10000 per year, all you have to save is $27/day. I was at a stop light yesterday and the guy begging for handouts was talking on his cell phone....lol Look at what stores are in all the new strip malls. 75% fast food.
