It's a brilliant tactic by our enemies. Use our laws and immigration policies against us... God we have been with our head in the sand too long.

Yes, governments are at fault for alot of this mess....

To Spend or Not to Spend? That is the Monetary Question

  • We estimate that government consumption and pandemic transfers to households account for about 200 basis points of the 475 basis points increase in the Bank of Canada’s policy rate.
  • This reflects the large and persistent increase in government consumption by all levels of government in Canada since the end of 2019 and the Federal support programs for households rolled out during the pandemic.
  • Given that provincial government consumption of goods and services is more than triple that of the Federal government, provincial spending alone accounts for about a third of the increase in the policy rate.
  • Some of the rise in government consumption of goods and services was likely desirable and necessary given population growth and ageing but those expenditures were inconsistent with inflation control and led to higher interest rates.
  • Overall, our results suggest fiscal policy at all levels of government has been badly mis-calibrated from an inflation management perspective.

If you come to Windsor and see the thing they are building it will blow your minds. The amount of South Korean content is massive. There are not enough hotels from Windsor to Toronto to house the S Koreans coming to outfit it.

Sounds like a big undertaking - shame someone in high places doesn't seem to be putting this kind of effort into helping businesses that will see less business in a green economy.

NDP/ LPC splitting votes in ridings is a wonderful thing. The CPC doesn’t have to worry about the PPC stealing votes since PP started to lead. 338 is accurate enough that you don’t need an election.

The Liberal plan is structured such that they don't actually have to spend any money, and they can blame the municipalities for the failure. A the heart of the program is that to qualify for funding, cities must approve the construction of four storey buildings in residential neighbourhoods. Nobody is going to approve that. No ward or riding is going to tolerate four-story infills.

I think another issue I've read are developers not willing to build anything due to high interest rates and no buyers. It's a lose-lose situation.
