I was a child when #Mulroney made the deal with the devil, and even the #Tory side of the family thought it was a bad idea, but they still voted Tory in the next election, and Tory until MacKay stabbed them in the back and merged with the Reform party (creating the #CPC).

Now the USA has #Project2025 and are implementing it as fast as they can, and the rest of the country says they are surprised.

If they are this stupid, can we really trust them?

Do you feel any richer today? Trickle-down policies of the 1980s are nonsense

Reversing tax cuts for the wealthy and their corporations is not raising taxes; it is restoring funding to rebuild our once civil society.

I love Canadian state funerals. I love that we, the people, pay the state media to spend a bunch of our money pretending to us that someone spent his life doing things *for* us, when in fact he did them *to* us. #mulroney #cbc #media #canada
@mirijb2 the way out of this will be for the federal government to re-enter home construction in a major way, reversing #Mulroney 's decision of 1992. Given the timing, it will probably be a Conservative that does it. The taxpayer will bear the burden. I see no other way.
