KEEP POLITICS OUT OF THE RINK

Shame on the Oilers for allowing Mark Carney to skate with them. I’m sure not all the Canadian members of the team support him. Why bring politics into the rink, Edmonton? And this guy wants to keep all your oil in the ground. He wants to make sure you buy EVs and he doesn’t want pipelines for your gas. And you support him?

ANOTHER UNHOLY ALLIANCE

Regardless of the election outcome, is there anything in place to stop another NDP-Liberal coalition? The last several years, the Grits were propped up by a spineless, greedy Jagmeet Singh. What’s to stop them forming another alliance if the election results are close again? This is not how democracy is supposed to work.

FAKE PROMISES

Just before the election was called, the Liberals rolled out one of their new policies. We’ve applied twice and don’t qualify for the current dental policy. Now they’re supposedly opening it up to people 18-64 with household incomes less than $90,000. Taxpayers will be on the hook for this ongoing boondoggle. It’ll be the first promise that’s broken. Once again, it appears the Liberals are trying to bribe us with our own money.

CARNEY IS NOT CHANGE

My concern is that every single person in Carney’s cabinet was in Justin Trudeau’s cabinet — Steven Guilbeault, Chrystia Freeland et.al. This means a continuation of what the last 10 years of Liberal rule produced: More wasteful spending, more borrowing, more debt, higher deficits and no economic growth. How can anyone believe that anything will change under Carney and the same old gang? Carney may be many things but he is certainly not a change candidate.
