In a time when the economy is struggling and many are feeling the weight of inflation, unemployment, and rising costs, I've been fortunate enough to make $25, 000 in this challenging environment. Thanks to Alex.✊

Pirates founded Canada.
Lachance.
Fuerth.
Campeau.
Cournish.
All "pen names" pirates assumed when the crowns cracked down.

Don’t forget all the Chinese that died to build the railroad, only for the living ones to get kicked out after

The author’s credibility went to 0 when he agreed to the ability for a company to write off of capital investment via CCA as a subsidy.

Obviously has never started invested in or run a business.

Easy to sit at a keyboard and take shots. He likely makes good points somewhere in his book, but all is lost because of this weakness. The host gets it when he gently pushes back on this point. Yes, all market based democracies do something similar. Should Canada make the playing field even harder to invest here? Capital moves around the globe too easily.

Go look and you will see the author is a socialist. Now it makes sense.

Thank god Carney has a strong track record during difficult economic times! No time for amateur hour with Pierre Poilievre.
