Harper Harper Harper. Gawd it’s been years and everything is his fault still. Will Trudeau ever take responsibility for his failures

[seanbretzer]

Funny, when Harper was in office I had to beg for time off work. Now I wonder how I'll pay next month's bills constantly

Pierre's got a point when it comes to the Drama Teacher not keeping his shirt on.

I want to know when are you debating about the abolishing of the is Canada becoming a fully independent you also publish the sources of revenue and all the you analysed all the expenses and their efficiency for the canadian am very sure that there are many expenses that are not allocated appropriately and that you can reallocate them for better use. Like many Ngos, etc etc.

Can any one explain to me why Alberta Oil was sold years ago and privatized yet it's so politically tied. Sun Corp owns the oilsands, not the government.

[charlescaruana]

I don't remember multiple interest hikes under the PC Harper government, but I do remember record low interest rates though.

[saxytb]

Alberta is selling the Canadian oil for $14/barrel. Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes are buying US, Venezuelan or Saudi oil for $50/barrel. Sunny days my friends, sunny days.

I say get English in quebec and English Schools in quebec, why is it one sided for quebec.It has to be both ways.

[kenrogers]

I really don't know why the question period still exists. I guess you can call it that, but not an answer period. Can anyone remember when the last time was our grandstanding PM actually answered a question, or remembered any of the promises he made to get elected???

[merlinkrisp]

Not one answers about the budget not one

[JadenHybrid]

I wish they admit that there is no working class, there is the working poor.

Working is always important and many many elements and taxes complete the word poor.

[brianswanson]

Why is there nothing about Seniors like myself, there is nothing-always nothing about that.

[tempeltonkane]

How is this process productive, this is embarrassing and juvenile.

[FS]

He took all our tax credits away for his Syrian refugees and illegals! I need public transit I was getting 15% back and it was helping me pay for transit ...now transit is so expensive! I spend $200 a month and it is hurting me. He needs to go...help Canadians first it’s tax month we are paying into! Canada first!

Justin's dad started to ruin Canada, now Justin is here to finish the job.

[rougemoonchild]

[tinas]

Can't hey have debates on a civilized they just tell in a pleasant tone what they think it is a better they behave like truly caring knows how much I regret coming to Canada. I am 65 and I have nothing compared with What I had in my country of origin. And I am sure that many people think this way. Many returned to their countries already. Why don't you debate the amount of interest and the schedule of the interest people pay on a

[JadenHybrid]

This feels like a movie called “Beavis and Butthead discuss taxes”

No one is right that should be in the oath and ethics of the goverment.

[FS]

Hahahaaa this from the trust fund baby! Never vote a rich kid in even if he or she is 48 years old!

[crowma]
