What's the point in dragging a homeless person to court to be given a fine for being homeless they can't pay? Youre paying money and time for no result. Think of it like how canada used to mint pennies. A denomination too small for use and cost more to make than its worth.

  • Props to Ex NDP Leader Tom Mulcair for calling it as he see's it. He really didn't mince words and didn't hold water for anyone. He made it very clear: Poilievre has his finger on the pulse of the nation, and both NDP/Liberals are simply playing catchup/Cover their asses. Never thought I'd see someone be so a-political and simply offer a straightforward analysis.
