The housing sector did not have the same level of foreclosures, the investment banks did not become not insolvent.

    And maybe you're a moron!

    Harper controlled spending during his time in office. He didn't waste money like the Liberals and NDP do, that's why the country survived.

    That's the difference between what we had then and what we have now since Trudeau has been in office for 4.5 years. As of last year our deficit is 20 billion and he will be handing out 82 billion for the covid crisis, and back in February he was tossing money at Greece.

    As of August 2016, BEFORE Trump was elected, the first year of Trudeau, 156,155 illegal immigrants have crossed into Canada from the States. The RCMP have actually built outposts at the unmanned crossings.

    And these people are being given health care paid for by me, including dental and prescriptions, which I can't get unless I have private insurance, for up to 20 years! How's that for a liberal waste of money!

    Do not talk to me about things in my country if you don't live here. You don't have a clue.

        I'd turn you in right away and you'd get to spend 2 weeks in quarantine and then you'd get free housing.

          Maybe I do have a clue, even though I do not reside there.

          The 08 housing crash, which took trillions out of the economy in the US, was caused in part by loosening banking rules, which Canada chose not to do. The US had a massive influx of foreign investment, a whopping 6% GDP, which China did not have. The money prompted a boom in housing, some middle class persons actually received four and more mortgages, it was like the wild west and a classic bubble. Yes, Harper did a good job, but those were not under his control.

          The global financial crisis which hit in 07 put the world's banking sector into a bind (Lehman collapsed). Ottowa did pressure quick write offs (to Harper's credit). But Harper did follow Obama with a stimulus package, Canada even bought into GM. When oil and commodity prices rebounded, Canada reaped those benefits, along with the weak Canadian dollar.

          Canada was helped by strong commodity prices, banking policies set earlier with strong central government regulation, and weaknesses in the Looney. Harper did pull the similar stunts as Obama, adjusted for GDP. Harper did not keep his promises on budget, though to be fair he was forced into it by opposition.

              I'd love for you to tell what you think is wrong with it.
              The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                Trudeau's latest outrageous behaviour. He has banned all from entering Canada who have a cough or fever, but he's made an exemption for illegal immigrants!

                He is an idiot!

                And there is nothing about this in the MSM.
