I don't see how anyone could be as bad as the conservatives. Slashing funding to science, eliminating journalism funding, cutting back on education, removing every single last protection for our water and environment, junk pipeline deals with the states, junk deals for jets, robot calls, MP's being charged for stealing government funds, bringing in expansive spying bills. The list goes on and on. I still remember how that little bitch was shaking with fear whend he first addressed the robo calls. Literally shaking, and he didn't win any points when he ran into a closet during that active shooter incident. Leaving the rest of his caucus out in the open to fend for themselves. Then he tries to act hard with Putin. What a fucking clown.

Or...
They managed to keep the country financially stable after being forced to bail everything out in 2008. Make the necessary adjustment needed to not sink like the US and be known as the best managed country of the Western world.
I'm not saying that they are perfect. They've been named the #1 less shitty government of the last 10 years. That has to mean something...

Canada ran itself through that recession. It's our robust trading practices and reliance on resources that got us through that relatively unscathed. We also weren't the ones up shit creek without a paddle to start with. That was the states. Can you even prove the conservatives had any substantial impact on the recession?

Were better off than all the other western countries and that's a major win in my book

If you wanna thank any one thank Chretien and Martin. Actual leaders that looked out for Canadians. They are the ones that laid the groundwork for 7 consecutive years of fiscal surplus's. They eliminated a 42 billion dollar defect when they first came into power in 1993-94 and we're such fantastically competent leaders that they managed to give out a 58 billion dollar tax cut package in 2001. You know who fucked up their immaculate record nearly the second they came into power? The conservatives. Chretien and Martin amassed 80 billion in surpluses and gave out substantial tax cuts to corporations and the common man during their tenure. That's what buffered us from the recession. That's why we're the fiscal envy of the world. The conservatives had nothing to do with it.

And it's hilarious to constantly hear about how your government's laying waste to your country.

Well at least there is a country to lay waste too.
Unlike Canada we aren't a frozen wasteland

that's politics for ya.
canadians barely have any politics they have to resort to talking about the politics of other countries.
just admit it, canadians are just a bunch of imitators, like the japanese and chinese.

I agree with the part that we don't have as much politics like you have. But that's normal. You have more people and a huge army that seems to have a taste for war. Of course you'll get more poltics. Its inevitable.
As for the "imitators" comment; we aren't neck deep in debt, therefore we are not imitating you. In fact, you guys should be imitating Canada. Maybe learn a thing or two if you can let go of your pride a little.

have you been living under a rock for the last 10 years?...
I swear, If harper is still here after october, I'm out of here... seriously.
I admit.. I'm a little nervous about ANY of the parties running right now taking control... but shit, harpers conservatives take the cake by a long shot.
I have a pretty strong hunch we'll be seeing an NDP government... the libs fucked themselves by supporting C-51, and as for the conservatives, well.. I doubt they'll be getting many votes this time around, unless maybe of course harper commits election fraud again.
-------------------- Nothing is true, everything is permissible. Our laws make law impossible; our liberties destroy all freedom; our property is organized robbery; our morality an impudent hypocrisy; our wisdom is administered by inexperienced or mal-experienced dupes; our power wielded by cowards and weaklings; and our honour false in all its points. I am an enemy of the existing order for good reasons.
