Let’s be real, they couldn’t care less about the economy.

[bargndigital]

They have already raised taxes, Carbon tax, etc. these should be rolled back as the economy recovers

[xavierharding]

Thank goodness the budget will balance itself.

Transmittal immunity from human to human not isolation will prevent any virus infection because the only vaccine you will ever need is a strong immune system. We have been lied to and we're mad as hell and we're not going to take it anymore.

And we have too many seniors in Canada. I know the vaccine will get rid of thousands of them, but how long do we have to wait?
We have to save pension money, folks!

Now is the time to be building your foundation of faith on the rock. Jesus is the way truth and life. The storm is coming for all Canadians. I pray you will be ready for great finacial hardships. Bless u all, Br, john

I got the gist of what Peter Mackay said, but not perfectly word for word. He still did better than I would have done, but the Canglish accent is obvious.
Really though, if you're gonna ask the question, don't be so unprepared when he answers in French. Call a Quebecois friend to verify if it was alright, passable, or whatever. Dur... was that bilingual?

[teejack]

I'm not overly fond of what follows. (*Loki's voice*)

[behonestwithyourself]

Can this clown answer a question? Were losing jobs out here and we need a plan.
