Actually reminds me of the kind of Premier Gary Doer was.

Oiiiii. MB will be interesting as well - it's going to be close.

The Liberals are starting to fire back about the carbon tax Said in question period today: "Conservatives can either get on board with climate change mitigation measures - or they will stay in opposition." I thought for a second I was reading a post by @Wideleft

Every government either cuts taxes or gives tax credits - they all do it Also, Conservatives and Liberals have both introduced new taxes - they both do it Based on past history and also on rhetoric from certain western provinces - I assume a Conservative government would reduce transfers to the provinces There are not that many other expenses they can cut, that would make that big of a difference I agree strongly with the current government's approach to transfer payments - with Manitoba receiving an additional $1 billion dollars plus each year I can't imagine what our health care would look like - if Trudeau had not increased those transfers again, after Harper cut them

That's fair. There is much that we continue to work on from within - change takes time I can tell you that it is certainly far better than it once was My wife and I actually fostered and adopted a child through CFS, thus we had to put all of our cards on the table They did have many questions, but in end, we were able to proceed

That's just it. Many of us do not weaponize our spirituality. My people certainly don't

I agree with that. The Bible is not exclusively the word of God - that's pretty obvious if you read all of it I agree that fundamentalism is dangerous, and that personal beliefs need to separated from government In fact, many of my ancestors suffered and died - due to protesting and demanding the separation of church and state

Just respect the fact that people do believe in both ideas First Nations people also believe in a creator That's your assumption.

I have been asked a similar question several times Being a person of faith, I asked more questions of the surveyor. The assumption was that I believed strictly in 6 day creationism No room for nuance

The problem is the question: Those two things do not need to be mutually exclusive. Someone who believes in God, is not going to say they don't.

Tell him he can bag groceries without a degree.

Given the current global issues: The war in Ukraine Food Prices Droughts Etc, etc, etc To then have elected MPs stand up and say 'the more Liberals go woke, the more Canadians go broke' is just beyond lame. They need to do much better - just my 0.02

Nice to see a consistent grinder like Lowry get a couple of goals.

Scheer did the same Trudeau/Liberal/Corruption thing that Pollievere is currently doing. This is a very different Liberal government fron the one Harper defeated. They need to show that they have more in their arsenal than that.

I find PP to be a more agressive version of Scheer - they'll need to do more than crow about Trudeau's golden toilets.

I used to think I was biased, because of her unabashed support of Hutterite Colonies, but I'd say she has also been a good all around minister.

Another that I've liked is Eileen Clarke, but she is older and moving on.

Is that an advanced form of regurgitation?

Is Rochelle Squires running again?

This is going to be the year of: "This is what we 'would have seen' if they Leafs were still in contention."

I would say most people have a pretty good sense of who both leaders are Also, the PCs are losing most of their key MLAs - so whoever gets elected will be governing with an inexperienced group In that sense, they are both the 'devil we don't know.'

Obach has his team on the ground in Selkirk. He is going to need a solid campaign. The riding now stretches into Clandeboye, Petersfield and Netley. Those areas of the riding shade more into blue.

It will be interesting to see how much of a factor this 'spat' turns out to be The parties are not that far apart in the polls, and the Liberals have recently had solid showings in by-elections Here's what I would say could be some potential swing ridings: Dauphin Selkirk Radisson Southdale Fort Whyte Brandon East McPhillips Fort Richmond Rossmere IMO, whoever wins most or all of these, will be in majority territory

This was about as direct as it gets.

I watched the clip. If he's lying, there is 0 chance he will not be exposed - the accusation is 100% clear. Someone is going to come out of this looking terrible
