A taxpayer advocacy group is calling on the Liberals and two provincial governments to cease funding a “politically driven” publishing house, which has been given north of half a million since 2020.
If they want to publish a book that loses money that's their business. I'm sure there are plenty of generous donors out there, but I don't want my tax money to go to them!
Where are the opposition party on this? Whatever happened to that Tom Clark Billionaire Row condo scandal? The libs are very disrespectful with the public’s money.
The only ones that keep bringing up Trump are the libs. Lots of deflecting by them. Pierre is the only one that keeps Canadians issues in the forefront and keeping libs accountable and exposed. We need him at the helm to get Canada back
Accountable? When? Trudeau won every battle. Carny is racking up win after win.
I hate to be a doomer but Canada is not coming back unless it gets right with the US. If Poilievre can win an election, he will still need to fix his attitude towards America if he is bringing Canada back.
If Harper had done some sort of reform during his tenure, by ending first past the post or abolishing CBC or fixing Elections Canada , maybe the Liberal nightmare wouldn’t have lasted 10 yrs?
This didn’t happen overnight.
Everybody in Canadian politics has TDS, so do a lot of Canadians. The politicians all need to bend the knee to DJT because increased trade with China is not a solution.
True. However, everything Canada has tried blew up in its face and made things worse. Ford especially has been awful.
Canada has a wrongly inflated sense of itself: it’s not competitive with the US. It’s 10% of the US. There’s an unhealthy attitude towards it’s US relationship.
The best way forward for Canada is to bend the knee, mend fences and retool.
Unless you think Carnage can replace the US trade, which is up around 70% of Canadas total (imports and exports).
They could speak out a lot more than they do and when they do they could do it with a lot more passion. Conservatives often seem to be calculating what effect the optics will have when they speak out instead of just saying it like it is. We do have traditional values as Canadians. Anyone I'm going to vote for had better speak up for them instead of worrying about offending people who don't share them. We are Canadian first. Not some nation of compliant, apologetic virtue-signallers.
You don't have to jump up and down to speak the truth. That would give you something else to complain about. Polievre is the only one speaking out for Canadians and trying to make things better. Can you read. Are you deaf. Corney is not for canada or Canadians. Is your skull too small to fit a brain
Your adoration of Poilievre blinds you to how he avoids some topics. For example, the ostrich slaughter in British Columbia. I saw him barely reference it once when asked a direct question. It was a topic much more important than just a few birds. And, no I am not deaf and my skull seems to be big enough to hold a brain but, it would seem, your blinders keep you from seeing anything that doesn't paint your perfect Poilievre in a way that is less than godlike. He's just another politician. I will admit that he would probably do a better job than Carney (a low bar indeed) but Poilievre is not the final answer. He's just a stepping stone for Canadians. NO POLITICIAN will ever be THE answer. We need to take power away from politicians and give it back to the people by decentralizing government and making it more local.
I'm not going to go back and forth on this but what did Eby or corney say/do about the ostrich fiasco. They are the ones in power to do something. All you can do is criticize Pierre when he's doing all he can do as opposition. Let's put him in power and see what he accomplishes. Stepping stones are a way across most turbulent waters.
l already know Carney and Eby are a lost cause when it comes to representing Canadians. I want someone in a leadership position who's willing to speak out on an issue that's being ignored whether they're in a position to do something about it or not. Poilievre is supposed to be a leader of the Conservative Party and to speak out on behalf of conservative values. When he doesn't do that people notice and they should ask, "Why not?"
The contempt that the Liberals, NDP, Greens, and even many of the so-called Conservatives show for Canadians is shocking at least and treasonous at worst.
That’s what our government does! They use hard working taxpayers money to push their socialist and woke ideals. They discriminate against the ones that contribute the most!
Here's an excellent opportunity for Mr. "All Talk/No Action" Carney to put our money where his mouth is: (1) cut nonsense government spending; and (2) reallocate these funds to retraining some of our unemployed auto workers in home building, defence, or rare earth mineral technology. Any bets on whether or not it will happen?
These publishing companies should definitely get taxpayers dollars for their benefit, if they can't make it on their own then they should fail as a business! It is nothing less than corporate welfare, which is such a common thread within the Liberal mindset!
Is it the same publisher that put out Corney's book of bullshit. Probably why they're being funded.
We thought the last jerk with the weird sock fetish was corrupt and an abomination.
Apparently he was just the warm-up round.
Good work on making the connection which is more than likely.
Somehow... Not surprised at all.
Even if not obvious... It's the Brookfield thing... Layers upon layers upon layers of obfuscation and just plain hiding things from public view.
Trudeau was just the warmup act to soften up the crowd. Carney is the hatchet man to close the deal.

It's hard to keep up with tge endless spending, corruption and scandalous behavior of tge liberal government. Opposition's hand are full!
It’s relentless and disturbing!
The Liberals are the worst but I am super disappointed in the opposition.
Why?
Not much they can do if they're not in power. Just wait it will happen
They keep saying goofy stuff about Trump. Poilievre’s TDS is a problem.

Trade is a 2 way street. Donald is just flexing his muscles.

Looks like you are going back and forth on it.

Waiting for an explicitly Christian publisher (eg Focus on the Family) to get that level of public funding with no strings attached.
This is how our government operates under the guidance of Communism with taxpayer money.
Isn't the use of public funds by the Liberals supporting communism?
That’s what our government does! They use hard working taxpayers money to push their socialist and woke ideals. They discriminate against the ones that contribute the most!
That whole section of our glorious government should be fired with no recourse.
Tell me something new for a change! A reasonable person knows this as a evil reality in Canada!
Great. Have a terrible business plan with politics not profit as your goal and our government back stops it. This is ridiculous.
thank you to the taxpayers federation for continuing to expose the corruption of our government
Here's an excellent opportunity for Mr. "All Talk/No Action" Carney to put our money where his mouth is: (1) cut nonsense government spending; and (2) reallocate these funds to retraining some of our unemployed auto workers in home building, defence, or rare earth mineral technology.

More insaity
There is nit a SINGLE they do that WE do not fund! Remember this, always!
Why can't the commies use a gestetner machine like they tell us they have always done?
These publishing companies should definitely get taxpayers dollars for their benefit, if they can't make it on their own then they should fail as a business! It is nothing less than corporate welfare, which is such a common thread within the Liberal mindset!
