Our politicians have spent years creating their utopia, and now it is crumbling around them. All the fancy battery plants etc. have taken our money and moved on. Our politicians are now begging us to buy Canadian, travel at home and support interprovincial trade, realizing that we are fucked. The money press is jammed and the common man is taxed out. The "rich" that Gordo's fearless leader goes on and on about took their money out of Canada a long time ago. The infrastructure needed to get back to a resource based economy is years away. But all is not lost, Venezuela turned it around almost instantly. How? They turfed the progressives and now most other countries are following. Our time will come. In the meantime, I hear that their is some excellent fentanyl on the streets just now!
Try controlling markets with legislation and they will end up controlling you. Solve problems with actions not laws. Housing starts are down 10% in BC. Solve that issue for housing and let the economy grow. We need the economy to grow so this massive debt can be paid down. The only other way out of debt is more taxes. If you don't know how to solve problems you use legislation. This is what happens when you have unqualified politicians making economic policies. Save that for the economists at the bank of Canada. The laws of unintended consequences will kick you where you least expect it.
The current talking points of no growth and slow growth are really describing death - not of just tiny town TOFINO, but of the culture and civilization of Canada. it's really easy for the people who are fairly well off to not want anything different new or different to happen because they are already taken care of. As Marie Antoinette allegedly said to the peasants clamouring for bread: "let them eat caka!"
You think it is bad now, wait until all the asylum seekers getting kicked out of the US arrive at our border. The current regime will have you giving up your guest rooms to house them!
If it hasn't dawned on anybody that the Canadian economy is in big trouble it's time to wake up and smell the coffee. the last 20 or 30 years of environmental activism appears to have been funded by American NGOs, which nobody thought to question or wonder about because of the idea of climate change. stopping pipelines, mining, & logging was going to save the world from burning up and who would argue with that? Halting, one way or another, most of the capacity for the Canadian economy to stay in business became a political platform. This week it became painfully obvious that this stopped any competition from American development of exactly those industries. we are not privy to the obvious glee that the alleged environmental NGOs are enjoying right now given our current situation. It's only a suspicion of course but sure seems like the environmental NGOs might be operations of the US state department. Except for coal exports. burn baby burn!
What does that have to do with the province demanding $450 licenses for vacation rentals? The province, like the federal government, needs money and in BC budget amounts that came from logging stumpage and mining royalties aren't there anymore. By now the environmental activists are firmly entrenched in the government so they don't need NGO financing but they do need money to give away for idealistic causes, which they have learned to support. Coming next: toll roads going everywhere.
Canada is in a world of hurt. Every sector of every government is a mess, our economy is nose diving into a hard recession, 25% of the population is living in poverty; and today Gordo is on about Poilievre only recognizing 2 genders. Someone who knows him, please tell him that no matter how it shakes out, he is not going to make the PWHL! Maybe concentrate on the things that matter.
Has anyone noticed that despite the years of carbon tax, eliminating gas and oil as a primary industry in Canada, decriminalizing drugs, bringing in about 1 million new immigrants/refugees, virtue signalling and Brazilians of dollars donated to the EV industry, the climate got warmer last year?
Will the new Minister of Health have everyone's favorite doctor, Bonnie Henry comment on the report out of Alberta that they will no longer recommend the clot shot because it is unhealthy. Who would of thunk?
Did the Liberals just remove a brown skinned MP from their leadership contest to help support an old white male failing upwards? Diversity is our strength!!
There's an ongoing situation with the biweekly deposit of sewage treatment solids into the dump. As it stands the dump looks to be full or nearly so and now what is the District going to do about it? What's the budget for that and did the top-notch consultants the mayor is so proud of realize that this was what was going to happen? Does the council actually know that this is taking place? or do they have to hire a consultant to tell them? And what is that consultant going to cost,? What is the solution that we need fast before the onset of tourist season?
So many people looking for work right now in tofino. Many more than years past. The economy is slowing. Is this an unintended consequence of the war on vacation rentals or did Tofino council plan on lots of unemployment? Either way, they made a bad decision. Maybe a better policy is to be pro business so you can generate tax revenue to build more water capacity and housing. We don't have a water shortage or housing shortage. We have a water and housing mismanagement issue. Call is like it is.
The United States is Canada's largest export market for farmed salmon. Farmed salmon is Canada's third-largest seafood export by value, the largest agri-food export from British Columbia. Just Sayin'

Leftism is a mental disorder!

Please don't use a dictatorship that ignored election results as an example to follow. Or maybe do if that's what you're after??

It sounds like Gordo’s lunch program hasn’t made it to Kingston yet..
There will be no vacations once the All Day Buffet guy and his party back the Liberals and bring in UBI.
The million dollar question is; Will Gord Johns be the first Minister of Truth once they bring in all the new censorship laws?
What will Fatman and Robin lobby to ruin today?
Why can't Canada have a RFK or a Tulsi? Instead we get Sell out Singh.
Ew
I'd like to hear some suggestions on council's struggle to balance the budget, as reported in the Westerly
There's an ongoing situation with the biweekly deposit of sewage treatment solids into the dump. As it stands the dump looks to be full or nearly so and now what is the District going to do about it? What's the budget for that and did the top-notch consultants the mayor is so proud of realize that this was what was going to happen?

It’s not Trump’s fault that our governments suck!!
Absolutely correct!! What you will NOT hear coming from D.O.T. chambers is "You're Fired!!" ...... although it's something that's long overdue.
climate change is the culprit.....hire more people!
Or Covid, Supply Chain Issues, Putin, Global Inflation…. Anything but our fearless leaders!!

Might be a good time to expand governments and print more money.
98% of farm fish exported from BC goes to USA .
