Just Not ready

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Agree,. From Trump's first term, a big issue was our fairy marketing board. As anyone living near the border knows, dairy products are much cheaper in the US.

I know there were a lot of complaints last go when Trump applied tariffs on steel and aluminium. Much of the aluminum come from smelters in Quebec and BC. The scale and energy requirements dictates where there's smelters are built. I know one small US machine shop selling high end CNC bike parts was caught out by the price increases of the aluminum they need for manufacturing..

Petroleum to the US is huge and makes up the bill of Canada's petroleum exports. Because of Canada limited market access, the US is able to buy at lower than market cost and the export it via the Gulf. Even with the newly expanded TMX, the bulk of that goes to Cherry Point or California. It really hasn't opened up the Asian market to Canada's advantage. That is what Northern Gateway would have done.

New Liberal scandal yesterday.

The Auditor General reports that $3.5 billion of corporate COVID relief went to ineligible firms and the government sole sourced the $313 million distribution contract with no government oversight from the finance ministry.

Enjoy your GST free Christmas tree.

NDP are talking abortion and the Liberals are talking gun control.

The polling booths must be opening soon.

Trudeau wants to ship guns expropriated from lawful Canadians off to the Ukraine.

Semi auto, 5 shot magazine, of a wide variety of calibers - yeah, that is well thought out logistics. Let's get the Ukes killed in battle.

Does anyone believe this shit from him?

Canada's Senate passed the GST Holiday Bill, but not before hearing that it will only provide an average tax relief of $4.51 to Canadians.

No word on the cost to businesses.

Canada Post strike has flooded Purolator (owned by Canada Post) with parcels and in parts of Canada they are now refusing to accept parcels. Businesses are having orders cancelled because delivery can not be guaranteed before Xmas.

Singh says he'll bring down the government if Trudeau introduces back to work legislation (and this time the Maserati Marxist means it - LOL).

Don't the feds always legislate posties back to work though?

(responded to with "work to rule" pushback of course)

I can't recall CUPW ever being out this long without dat dere.

That said, hopefully the Maserati Marxist does indeed bring down the government. 8-)

The Maserati Marxist should have killed the GST Bill and approved the back to work. Just mail us the $4.51.

Is Arctic Ambassador Trudeau's retirement position. He'll need those confiscated guns when out on the ice flows with the polar bears his carbon tax has saved from extinction.

Leaks out of Ministry of Finance put the deficit at $62 billion after budgeting last Spring for a no more than $40 billion to stay within the fiscal guardrails.

The bus has crashed the guardrails and is plunging down the cliff.

Word is, not surprisingly, the GST holiday and the $250 cheques came straight from the Prime Minister's Office and Finance pushed back as fiscally irresponsible.

Freeland will take fall next week after the numbers are released.

Fall fiscal update coming out in mid December, later than ever before and on the second to last day of the Fall sitting means there is six weeks to bury and forget the horrendous news.

Liz May was joking that climate change meant the Liberals had forgotten when Fall is.

Doug Ford with the perfect reply said "of Trump is thinking of Justin at midnight they must have a good relationship"

And while Trump is making jokes and belittling Justin, Justin speaks at a feminist conference and laments the election loss of Harris as a step backwards for women as if Harris only lost because she has a cunt and not because she is a dumb cunt.
