We were complicit in letting people bully trudeau out of office. But honestly how could any Canadian with half a brain not see that the liberals led by Mark Carney is the best choice for us in this Turbulent time. I could never see the Conservatives showcasing their values like this, it just screams Canada
Yeah well so did Trudeau. I was hopeful but I learned my lesson.
Carney also talks about making cuts. What is there left to cut???
There’s a lot of problems in this country that cannot be fixed by simply throwing money at it. Like the military or housing. It takes a complete restructuring of how it all functions and recruitment, cutting red tape or making more efficientcies within the system and building smart to preserve the environment
Actually, yes.
The housing crisis could be fixed if the government started building subsidized housing again like it used to instead of hoping the private sector will save us and subsidizing these crooks who have been taking advantage of the market.
And the military, too. We need to invest in more and better equipment mostly.
The… The current housing plan sets aside money to have a certain amount of housing be affordable… And it emphasizes that high density housing is key and is focusing on that? This is part of how you all just let them bash Trudeau for actually doing important shit we all need lol. And sure we can invest in our military more. But besides going outward to buy it, how do you spend money here to build the shit without the proper industrial base? We don’t just have idle factories sitting there and massive reserves of raw materials to make shit with… It takes time to ramp that up
My argument was that they rely too much on private contractors to build the housing and they won’t build anything wihout any way of making a significant profit. The government used to build multi unit housing buildings before for social housing, but they pulled back from that over time.
Otherwise, I agree with everything else you said about the military.
In fact, someone else either here or on Mastodon suggested that the car manufacturing plants that might close down due to the tariffs, could be taken over by the government to build stuff. So why not military vehicles, etc?
