    Does being self-employed count?

      Starlight, before I tell you to shut up and get out of my thread, I am going to tell you this.

      Point your stupid duck analogy straight at Justin Trudeau, born into wealth and privilege and entitlement, and tell him to give all his family money to everybody else. Let's see how that goes, mmkay?

      Now, shut up and get out of my thread.

      I am asking all other posters to not respond to anything he has said here.

        This morning there is one Liberal seat in Manitoba, none in Saskatchewan and one NDP seat in Alberta.

        All others are Conservative.

        Means nothing to Ottawa except further western alienation. Trudeau promises that we are "an essential part of Canada", but that only means he still wants Alberta to send transfer payments to the other provinces.

        Well, here's news for him. Our economy has been so bad the last 4 years that we have nothing to send. And unless he sets out to get the pipeline built that he's been waffling on for 4 years, there won't BE anything to send.

        We are still required to send it, though. Blood from a stone. I'm looking for separists to come out stronger than ever now.

Passing punitive taxes making it just not worth the risk to invest or expand and ever expanding regulations making it unprofitable to continue in business. So they simply close their businesses and enjoys the rest of their days relaxing and living off their accumulated wealth as more and more people no longer able to earn any sort of living fall to a subsistence level.

          Just remember folks, just how many poor people have you ever worked for?
          The takeaway I got is:

          “Starlight gets his ideas about wealth from cartoons made for children.”
          "The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe. I did try to found a heresy of my own; and when I had put the last touches to it, I discovered that it was orthodoxy."

            I'm not happy that he's still in office, but he's got a Minority Government with a MASSIVE Conservative* opposition, so now he has to walk on eggshells lest someone slap him upside the head with a Motion of No Confidence.

            *They're more like the Diet Socialist Party of Canada... but that's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

              You all are still too nice, and think the Niceness is a virtue. There is a treatment for that, it's called suffering.
              Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.

                I am not nice! Didn't you see me kick SL out of my thread?

                  Is posting about Trudeau also supposed to be not nice?

                  Not nice in the US was supporting Trump not because he was the lesser of two evils, but because only he had the necessary not niceness to tackle some of the massive problems. For instance, he put up the Wall, and destroyed the credibility of the liberal mass media.

                    This thread is not about Trump. Please do not bring him into it. There are a million other threads here where you can discuss him.

                    It is about the stupidity of the Canadian people who voted again for carbon taxes and more taxes on the middle class and gun seizures, and have chosen to be led for another 4 years by a man who should be jailed for the SNC Lavelin scandal, etc., ad infinitum, ad nauseum.

                    Trump has nothing to do with any if it, so please stop.
