I hope Trudeau disappears permanently, from politics. FOREVER!!! It's too late for new promises. Once you are a lair, you are always a liar.Absolutely despise trudeau
Who the hell is voting NDP? Besides the Liberals that is why we are having these problems!
All those people who somehow don't understand the anything the Government says is free, isn't really free.
Canadians. This is the real problem with Canada, Canadians.
@user-mp6cf6mv7t Oh ya. The ignorant sheeplekind are worse than Trudeau.
...not Canadians....the "New" Canadians...and I know it as a FACT... you can see the riding maps and the political leanings of the migrants who live in them. Calgary North East votes orange....old stock neighborhoods vote blue....those old stock Canadians built this country on the shoulders of their European ancestors.
@@deanl6613 Don't be so naive. Go have a look at PEI and who they vote for. Canadians voting for red or orange is widespread. This is the problem with Canada. It's the same when Canadians voted for Trudeau senior or Kathleen Winn in Ontario. It's not just "new" Canadians. You may not know but Canadians are not the smartest when it comes to freedom, liberty and justice. Canada and Canadians have a long history of voting for socialist parties.
I give the budget a middle finger!
You can not tax people into poverty to change the weather.
Trudeauing should be in jail
Did you sign the petition
hell half his cabinet ought to be in prison
Pierre for PM ❤.
So glad he contrasted these protests with the Trucker Convoy… the double standard in this country is sickening
Canadians do not want Klaus Schwab as Canada's dictator.
ALL gun owners are law-abiding, not just "most".... unlike all Trudeau cabinet ministers...
Legal gun owners…..sure. But the gun smuggling, crime syndicates……no. Typical indulged feds are barking up the wrong trees.
Budget was horrible. Cut spending by 50%. Get rid of capital gains tax forever and teach Canadians how to invest.
Decriminalizing of drugs in BC has made a huge drug problem even worse. I live in Kamloops, daily I get to witness the fall out from this legislation. It’s awful…
I grew up in Kamloops, left 13 years ago and have been home maybe 5 times.. last time was last summer, before that it was pre pandemic. Makes me real sad to see what's happened to my home town.
@@brando8086 I know what you mean. It' happening everywhere.
I live in rural Kamloops and I can attest to this as well. When we moved to this area 10 years ago Kamloops was lovely and the North Shore was the “bad side of town”. Now it is downright scary to walk through the majority of downtown and the north shore. There is open drug use and people passed out everywhere. Crime (theft) is out of control and tents sent up anywhere there is tree/bush coverage. They have turned numerous motels into BC Housing and they have all turned into drug dens and areas for crime. (Not to mention an eyesore right as you come into the city that would make any tourist question their safety) We never set foot in Riverside Park anymore and refer to it as Needleside Park now. 😢
@@lessharratt8719 I've lived in quebec city for the last decade and I'll tell you what. Its not like that here. We can still leave our doors unlocked. And my garage has been unlocked since I've owned the house and nothing has went missing... last summer was walking downtown kamloops and people have barb wire on their fences between the alleys around 6th.. st paul and battle area.
I think climate has is a huge factor here tho. Its -30 for like a month and a half every winter. Winters last 6 months.. very few homeless here.
Get the drugs off the streets. No to de- criminalizing.
I am a family doctor in Ontario. We do not sell our practices like dentists, vets or other professionals do. That is a total misconception. Our practices have the value of used furniture and instruments. That's it! My hope is that young doctors can read the tea leaves and get out of this country ASAP for the sake of their families, their futures.
Why are you still here? I can't imagine how busy your life is, I am going to the states, you should think about it.
I've had 2 doctors retire. Both times, another doctor took over the practice...yes, same office, equipment etc...but also all of the patients that the retiring doctor had. So not just equipment...their patients too. Same for hubby, old doctor retired and a new doctor took over the practice.
@@2FLIPS3.5TWISTS I wish you all the very best. I did move to Palm Beach Gardens, FLA at one point but family crises brought me back. I am Im now in my late 60's so more difficult to make a big change. It takes time to get settled in a new culture, but much easier when you're young, and especially if you have a young family to support your efforts.
Different in Alberta! You may not get Dr within a couple of miles but many still take on patients. Give up,socialized medicine
@@Shirleygirley Assuming care for a new practice is not like purchasing a practice. When dentists, veterinarians or other professionals sell a practice they may acquire hundreds of thousands or more dollars for that sale. These funds are used by that professional to fund their retirement. This not happen for medical doctors.
Woman over 60....Pierre all the way!
That’s me!!👍🏻😁 #PierrePoilievreforPrimeMinister 🇨🇦🎉
Me too!
Thank you; personally I don't care, as you, to be lumped into the over 60age group of women, assumed to have or will be voting for Trudeau. Never did, never will! From the git-go I found him to fit the persona of a Playboy....not my idea of an intelligent politician. The truth of that has now come out like flood gates opening. He is proving to be a weak, uncaring man pushing a Globalist Agenda, people would find themselves devastated to be controlled by!
Ready for more brain drain to the US Major Doctor shortage incoming..Brilliant Brian, that's exactly what Justin wamted to divert from the carbon tax....well played Pierre.
What’s amazing is both the Liberals and NDP have the support they do!
Yes the stupidity is unbelievable
I have looked after my Dad’s house for 20 years Now I need to sell. And I am going to get nailed with big capital gains taxes
Sell quickly the new tax doesn't start until June 25th
I hope you didn’t vote for Trudeau because that would be a kick in the nuts
If you don't need to sell now, I'd hold off. Hopefully Pollievre will reduce the capital gains tax rate once he's in.
Thanks guys for this report. Nice to hear some logical thinking
Hmmm. Let's say you're massively in debt. And then your spouse says "let's spend money like crazy and that'll improve our relationship". Liberal-NDP, we need to have a serious conversation. This just isn't working.
Excellent analogy!
Hey, they'll have our back 😂 When we're Bent over the table 😢
Yes, seems our government is hell bent to break, the stalwart patriotic generational Canadians that have worked and raised families in this country. I see communism coming as an end result with all these taxes. They know people won't be able to survive. Our farmers are being taxed right out of business. How does any of this make sense!???
Recovery centres are needed
When NDP New Westminster BC City Council said they want out of the free drugs program my jaw dropped.
You are not allowed to pay off a mortgage to soon. Your only allowed something like 20% a year. I forget because there is no extra money to put on my mortgage. So all they did was make you pay more interest on a 30yr mortgage. Also what will happen to the interest rates over that 30yrs? Give me a break, you can't sell this load of horse crap as good for anyone.
5 percent per year without penalty.
Easy debt wrecks everything, makes price go up! Wealthy asset owners do good tho.
Dig’n Bridge City News
Trudeauing😮
I’ve been TRUDEAU’d
At least the Sun tells the TRUTH about this government! ❤
Thanks Mr. Lilley for your honest reporting of what's actually occuring in Canada.
Pierre has been saying for several months that he wants to cut income taxes... as a single guy who used to make Just Around 50 to 70 k I found it very annoying that Harper put forth all those silly credits massively expanding the tax code when what every conservative wants is income tax cuts... and a simpler tax code like reform and the alliance used to stand for
Brian doesn't government over spending cause inflation Wich is the problem to begin with we have to cut spending not increase start by cutting government and not by cutting to the weak and old and demand hospital service without more money .
No more new taxes. Cut taxes. Federalize credential recognition. Private sponsorship for immigration and change the bureaucratic culture to one of efficiency.
Excellent again!
BC drug policy has had zero impact in reducing drug deaths They’re up!
That is probably the point of the policy
You know what would help? If mortgage rates were not going to be 5% when I go to renew my mortgage next year. Doesnt seem to be in the plan though sadly so we're preparing to sell and leave.
Agree Brian...this new change in capital gains tax is taking away our children's inheritance as well. And I don't know about you, but I figure my kids are going to need all the help they can get in the future here in Canada.
Thanks brian your a great reporter
Atlantic Canada better get their crap together and don't vote Liberal.
safe supply , how about liquor. habits a habit.
The drug scourge is not just in the big cities. I live in Campbell River on Vancouver Island- a town of $35,000-and there are druggies all over this once beautiful town. Cooking, injecting, using their taxpayer funded drugs everywhere and it’s SICKENING! Handing out crack, fentanyl, heroin to addicts and allowing drug use everywhere in public- and INSIDE hospitals- is the STUPIDEST government policy ever!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤thankyou Brian and Sun.
Great show
Millennial's learned their lesson about voting Liberal.
And im not leaving my fob at the front door.My gun safe key is attached and that would be irresponsible.😂
Why doesnt it resonate with canadians because we will pay ffs
30 yr mortgages won't help if you can't qualify for a $800k mortgage!
Won’t help if you actually want to pay it off either.
We ALL need to walk off the job & stall Canada until they call an election.
Great interview. 👏🇨🇦
Ok Time by time the west to decide thé gouvernement.enough of QC ans Ontario
Steven G likes the Carbon Tax
Comes from the UN like his plastic ban and registration
Going postal!!??
I have heard Pierre Poilievre say he wants to cut income-tax.
Me too!
finally an honest straight report on Canada's current situation keep it up brian and hal we need you guys to keep spreading the truth
Its just the PM's lying type "Window Dressing".
I honestly think that the government should invite representatives from countries that don't have a drug problem to come to Canada and explain their success. I guarantee you that it will be one of two decisions: either the death penalty for dealing or using drugs or life imprisonment for dealing or using drugs.
Trudeau leave our doctors, trades people alone
Empowering drug use leads to drug use!
Your absolutely correct
Québec only paying $57 TONNE for Carbon and Canadians paying $80 TONNE. Par for the course.
OMG !!!! I feel 🤢🤢 they must be stopped. 😢
Thank you Brian
Possession of a restricted firearm in public is a criminal act,
Re: handing in "banned" firearms... you cannot legally move or transport a prohibited firearm without a dedicated ATT from the RCMP which cannot be issued for this classification & you cannot legally transfer ownership of such at all...
I remember Pierre talking about lowering income taxes a few years ago
What "better" judgment??!
My brother lives in BC .He is sickened by the demise of the population.Literally stepping over whacked out smacked out human beings on the #uckin sidewalk.Priorities?
F those polices who has time to claim OT cracking down on the freedom convey.
When leading economists across Canada have been warning for years that increasing deficits, increasing taxes, increasing regulations, increasing debt, and increasing interest payments will harm Canadians and our economy, Mr. Trudeau doubles down on all areas with the latest budget. Hopefully he didn't pay millions to consultants to craft 5his latest affront to Canadians.
PS thank you my guns were acquired legally and incidentally stored properly legally and safely.And not for sale.😂Especially today!
Interesting ... maybe we should be thinking more about 'will it help fix the country?' rather than 'how will this help me?'
With the proposed changes to capital gains tax it’s a wonder we can get anyone to invest in Canada? How did we ever get to the point that it’s okay to tax people at 50 to 2/3 %?
Small businesses will be affected by this. He needs to go
The 30 year amortization is only on new builds
Not this woman over 60. PC all the way
He has said about income tax cuts. I’ve heard him say it in other u tubes. He said with cost of inflation the income tax levels must reflect the changes. Poverty level is much higher. $50,000 isn’t a good income anymore.
I'm a senior & said no to their dental ... why? When I needed the help, I couldn't get it because I lived up north ... I had to pay for my own dental because I needed to have my teeth pulled ... I no longer need dental as I have no teeth - just like a large amount of seniors.
The Monopoly Man never had a Monocle... see Mandela Effect... strange that so many of us do remember the character having one.
How do people in Ottawa like the Pallestinian and their supporters protesting in their streets. Must make the Convoy protest look like a picnic.
A QUOTE; " We contend that a nation trying to tax itself into prosperity, is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle" Winston Churchill
One of the best quotes ever, cheers
I have seen Pierre say he will lower income tax. A few times actually.
Did I hear they expect $1.9B anual revenue? if that's correct, and we have, say, 30M taxpayers, that's $49k per year for each of the 0.13%. Including any small business owner who sells their business, granny who sells the family cottage... I agree it's a ridiculous distraction from the carbon tax and will chase investment out of Canada.
Is Trudeauing going to be a criminal offence with jail time ????
More AI=more servalance and digital banking
Raising taxes in any fashion should never take the place of good governance. These guys are the worst in my lifetime by far and that is saying something if you consider the fact that I was around in his dad’s time. Awful just plain awful…..
How much taxes does the Canadian federal government actually pay.
Brian was not listening
We can see drug use in Cornwall.
It is also going to hurtall the children of oarents who have investments.... so they get less and wont get a home
PASSPORT PORNOGRAPHY: I got my the new passport and and deeply ashamed. On Page 1....Page One their is the flag of the colour of acceptable sodomy. I cannot even bring myself to sign it. This does not represent me as a Canadian. I am disgusted and upset. I hope Pierre puts the passport back to what it was....the one we were proud of.
😢
The NDP are going to vote this budget . Why Jagmeet wants his pension next year . Jagmeet does not want a election this year he wants to support the Liberals in there scandals and corruption. I have never seen so many scandals and corruption in are Federal government .
Trudeau always has done things that help him,period!.budget two thumbs down for me
Is it true that Bill Blair and Turdo gave the military all the powers of the police? Is this a precursor to MARSHALL LAW? Then just lately the Military were ordered to do a 'wellness' check on every residence in a town in Ontario. What qualifications might the military have to do a wellness check? What the hell is actually going on.
Maybe they should have listened to US Canadian citizens cuz we've been telling them all along that safe drugs or free drugs or whatever you call it is not the way but oh no we didn't know anything all those ignorant politicians got egg on their face now don't they😂
Monopoly Man doesn’t have a monocle 😂
Have Canadians become hypocrites in the Trudeau style?
Ndp is not a good choice, ever
Just finding out that this increase in capital gains is going to affect all of our doctors and doctors are very upset and threatening to just quit. This is driving professionals out of this country and we can’t afford to lose any medical professionals at this point. They keep saying fairness fairness fairness. That is a top agenda item for the WEF. Plz start investigating just how much of this governments policies are a direct WEF policy. Freeland said Fairness in her budget over 50 times. If the NDP support this budget we are done.
Nobody is talking about the halal mortgages, he has been saying stronger paycheques, Canadian police serves are political and therefore ineffective
Halal mortgages are a major component of Sharia Law. If this policy is accepted, what we be the next insistence again our Canadian values: stoning people, acid attacks against young women or arranged marriages of children. The liberal regime is eroding our rights and values for the votes of 1.8 million Muslims that are now at a point where their agenda is now being implemented right before our eyes!
Going Postal 😅
What a bunch of dimwits!! “Let’s take guns away from legal gun owners!” But how? Four years later: 🤷♀️🤷♂️🤷♀️🤷♂️🤷♀️🤷♂️🤷♀️🤷♂️
Israel has no ties to Palestine? Really? As you correctly bring out Brian, they were renamed by the Romans, previously they were Philistines which was a region of the Ancient land of Canaan, they NEVER had their own country. Yet, Ancient Israel around the Jordan River was around way back when. Thus, Israel existed long before the current protesters were around, it was Israeli land. Thus, their "go back to Europe, you don't belong here" isn't accurate.
Capitalism for well to do. Sad socialism for the unwashed.
