My taxes are higher and the value of my dollar has greatly reduced under Trudeau... not sure what else there is to explain.

One thing Trudeau took away before my bank account even had a chance to be happy about it was the spousal income splitting.

I never said he made my bank account happy, I said my bank account misses him, ex. things were a lot better for me financially under Harper than they have been under Trudeau, even excluding Covid

I didn't say the federal government doesn't have a say in construction, I said that I highly doubt they are somehow only disallowing water projects

In what world do you need a second mortgage for a well or cistern? You could do it with an unsecured line of credit unless you're an idiot and destroyed your credit rating.

This is fucking stupid. I have lived around this area for my entire life and literally everyone who doesn't live on a reserve (and isn't part of an actual town) have wells or cisterns that were paid with privately.

The only thing stopping someone from getting their own well would be if the ground water isn't available (very low probability that everyone around the reserve has ground water but the reserve doesn't) or that the ground water is contaiminted (also very low probability for the same reason as before, and especially because contamination that bad would have a huge affect downstream in the Grand River).

Like shit, I have both a well and a cistern, as do all my neighbours around me... If someone could explain why wells and cisterns don't work on this particular reserve I'd really appreciate it.

Here's the big question: is the NDP willing to bring down the Government if the CPC force this topic into a confidence vote?

No, you can quit though, which would have a similar effect if the labour market wasn't being fucked with low-cost labour.

Huh, as a Linux user who puts up with Proton's unwillingness to support Linux, to me this seems to he saying "Stop paying for Proton until they make Linux clients"

Yeah, and look at how China treats their citizens to be able to do that.

 

Hopefully this doesn't get lost in the mix of other scandals (ex. ArriveCan, foreign interference) like it did last time.

 
 

Wow, people taking advantage of discrimination-based government programs... who could have possibly seen this coming?
