31 seconds in and he's talking about listening.. I bet he listened really well when the Liberals were all but wiped out in the last election. See you Iggy.
Anyone who believes in Politics is a fuctard. Its all a charade meant to distract us from whats really going on. Policiticans are puppets. They don't run Canada, the Bank of Canada does. Its a privately run company that masks itself as a Goverment agency. They own the national debt, therefore they own Canada, just like the bank owns your house. Look up fractional reserve banking. See whats really going on. We're all slaves. Harper is the least of our worries, and we need to take back control.
@AspiringPotato Its uneducated and unaware idiots just like you that are the reason this has happened. I have a degree in economics and I discovered fractional reserve banking for the first time while completing a paper. Its not a big secret and its in many textbooks, but no one understands it. People like you dismiss it because you're nieve, and this kind of talk frightens you. What I'm saying is the truth. Its been around for hundreds of years and historically its known as usary. Look it up.
@AspiringPotato "Until the control of the issue of currency and credit is restored to government and recognized as its most conspicuous and sacred responsibility, all talk of sovereignty of Parliament and of democracy is idle and futile... Once a nation parts with control of its credit, it matters not who makes the nation's laws... Usury once in control will wreck any nation." That is a quote from William Lyon Mackenzie King (you know.. the guy on the $50 bill) but I guess he was crazy too.
@AspiringPotato I'm not the king of economics. I'm just educated. Did you know that not one penny of income tax dollars go to Canada? Every penny is used to pay the national debt. A debt which is owned by the Bank of Canada, who's board of directors reside outside our country. We don't even print our own money. We are slaves to the monetary system that they have built. You talk about it and you're labelled as "crazy" by people like you, but these are facts, not theories.
Well I'll look more into economics. I was just under the impression that you were trying to define the entire political landscape as a one dimensional conflict between moral absolutes. Perhaps I misjudged in haste.
@AspiringPotato I would love to be prime minister. I would take back control of our federal reserve and have it government controlled which would eliminate the need for income tax and I would make government accountable on all levels of managment and spending. Just imagine that... no income tax, and still enjoying all or more of the services we already have, because they are all currently paid for by HST/GST/PST and our property tax. Vote Libertarian or none of the above and send a message.
Same old regurgitated crap every time. We hear the same old stuff every four years. Like an old record going around and around. And we will get the same results with ALL of them. Another FOUR year TAXPAYER BANDAID until the next shmuck gets voted in and does the exact same thing. They're all dissolving Canada to be the 51st state especially Harper and pushing us closer to A North American Union. I could go on for days. Pls Canada wake up.
Iggy needs to go quit trying to convince the Canadian public he cares about the issues that face them. I don't believe he really has a firm grasp on what the issues are, its hard to know what we want when you live apart from Canadians for so long And his lack of knowledge is obvious in his address at the debate He is using attacks to get votes instead of adressing where he believes Canadians want their values allocated which is a strong indication that he hasn't a clue of what Canadians value
Is it ever getting obvious that Peter Mansbridge and his CBC have a huge bias against Conservatives. When this election is over we need to focus on getting rid of the CBC, it has shown it is nothing but a Liberal think tank.
Here is a troubling question - Why do all Canadian politicians swear allegiance to a foreign queen ( Elizabeth 2nd of United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) when Schedule 5 of the constitution of Canada does not require that oath?
Another question - Why do Canadian politicians all pretend that there is a parliament of Canada when parliament is clearly defined in the constitution as a 3-part entity that includes Queen Victoria who died in 1901?
The only party that will protect the Canadian worker,increase our CPP pay-outs,increase our EI pay-outs,tax the rich/big companies on Bay street and big oil companies .....are the NDP! canadians have to wake up some day and STOP voting for Liberals and Conservatives just because thier parents did! Liberals and Conservatives have had many chances at the FEDERAL LEVEL since the trudeau era but blew it everytime! NDP all the way.
What a guy who cares about our kids``.... where was he when our kids needed a
good teacher of history....Oh yes..in the USA,UK,Europe,Israel, and other countries,teaching someone Else's kids! but not his Canadian kids!!! Shame on him!!! what a lame excuse for not living in Canada..what a hero...Ha, Ha, Ha,
it is true, many Canadians live abroad, but the difference is that they don`t aspire to become the next Canadian Prime Minister!!! God help us!!!
Where is he going to get the money for those lyes...
Have you watched ;Michel Ignatieff(dad beat Dad)tells students to abandon all family responsibilities like him... everyone who wants to vote for him should watch that video!
I don't like your dirty kind of politics Iggi, actually when did you start to care about Canadian at-all? you left us for 40 years..your country?Hell no! you deserted your
people..what about our children? why did you go to teach children in USA,UK,Europe,Israel and so on...why didn't you find it impotent enough to teach our children?why in 1999 the war between Israel and Lebanon, you said:"I don't
loose sleep over killing of civilians in Lebanon"? why did you retracted it afterwards?..why?
@hillybillyr finaly someone else who know all the dumbshit acts by the conservatives are because the liberals, NDP, and bloc whine like little bitches for it
He's NOT an ass and he's NOT a poor speaker/leader. He speaks the truth and promotes honest governing.
Answer this: How difficult is it to spend $60 Billion MORE then you have. I think it's pretty easy. Harper is SO proud that giant corporations are turning huge profits, while everyone else can barely make ends meat.
HARPER IS 60 BILLION IN DEFICIT, DO YOU UNDERSTAND THIS?!?!?!
he was a professor at havord .. hes not stupid .. and he is a good speaker .. is he a good leader ? maybe not .. but stop acting like leading a country is easy .. cuz its not , you try it
Anyone who has a basic understanding of macroeconomics realizes what this guy is proposing are conflicting arguments. Balance the budget and spend money / create jobs but raise taxes. This guy would do a 180 on any policy if it got him half a vote.
Watching this you just know he will never be the Prime Minister of Canada. Maybe the Conservatives won't win a majority but the Liberals won't win the next election.
well as much as i hate too say it and as much as i don't want this too happen but i personally think that Harper and the conservatives are going too get in again cause people and no offense too supporters i know this in gonna upset u when u read this but people just don't know any better and the problem with iggy hes only in this for himself and himself only and keep in mind for anyone living in BC and Ontario hes supports HST too.
It should be noted that when Trudeau was in power, the national debt rose from $18 billion, in 1968, to a debt that stood at $200 billion in 1984. Rather funny that the Liberals complain about a $42 billion deficit when they have the highest record of poor fiscal responsibility.
@baird007 Exactly. Mulroney actually cut Trudeau's deficit in half, but you have to convert to real dollars to see that.
Also the success of the Canadian economy in the 1990's, and hence the Liberals ability to eliminate the deficit, is thanks to 3 key Mulroney policies: 1) GST 2) Free Trade and 3) the 2% inflation target for the Bank of Canada.
@liberty4canada Glad to know that there are some other educated people out there who know their history. Mulroney had abysmal policies in regards to foreign aid, but at least he had the sense to replace the manufacturing sales tax that was killing jobs and be more open to let the private sector work. Everyone should know that true prosperity comes from the private sector. In terms of government, less is truly more.
The Conservatives are exactly what they say they are. Con's , Con Artists. And we the Canadians are the victims. Wake up people. Liberals are not perfect but they are not ignoring us and they are on our side, they represent everyone not just the majority.
illuminati whore bitch, brought in and given the liberal leadership after being absent from canada for 30 years fuck off and go back to the satanic spawn that birthed you. no one wants to vote for you excpet for the hardcore liberal fools blinded by some sort of twisted party loyalty
Stephen Harper's handling of the economy is like burning down the barn before the cow comes home. When you live and work outside of Canada, you get the feeling that you are not in Canada.
The liberals have always hated the military and did their best to break it down to almost nothing. They cancelled the helicopters even though it cost about the same as taking them. They cancelled our heros in the Canadian airbourn and if they ever get into power, you will see our soldiers charged with war crimes because of afghanistan detainees.
Liberals are dangerous and should be crushed and lumped into the same pile as the NDP. Liberalism is a mental disorder and iggy has it.
"poor speaker." what? "pompous asswhole." what? these comments have absolutely no credentials whatsoever. nothing lays claim to his poilicies, which is what matters; not your ignorant personal hate towards him. i'm neither for him nor against him, but you should express more intellegence when it comes to judging him.
I don't see conservatives trying to seize personal property, expand social welfare, create a national 're-education' network for toddlers, force people to register their firearms, advocate more government nanny-state involvement, or tell me what to think instead of how to think.
These are all well-illustrated ambitions of the Canadian left, many of which echo Germany in the mid 1930's.
@halburd1 It is funny that I am the moron who knows nothing when all you can do is talk about penis and assholes and retards and fucking, now I am not sure exactly what your trying to say but it sounds dirty and very irrelevant, well actually you probably could relate all that to politics, but the point is I am not the fool or moron here, I do not call people names, I am intelligent and I am open minded, if you want to debate intelligently than be my guest if not then just fuck off.
@EnchancedHuman only funny here is what fool u r, u would'nt know history from a dick up ur butt.. I know u have 2 b a gay assed stupid prick u can't help it only thing enhanced is your stupidity, im suprised natural selection didnt elimnate u when uwere very young ibet ur the dumb type ran around sticking fingers in electrical sockets. now all your dumb ass does is run around sticking your tongue up someone ass in the gay bar men's room
@halburd1 lmao I have to say your red neck initiative is quite disillusion. I am done replying to your homophobic assumptions. I am straight , just to set your record straight, and take your fantasies somewhere else because I do not wish to hear your prejudice, un relevant spasms. What your saying has nothing to do with anything. PCE out, but If I seen you in real life, I would fight you.
@EnchancedHuman you would fight me haha i dount it your so damn gay your too busy looking at penis. i doubt you are straight, if you are not gay now im sure you will be gay soon. i can tell by the stupid lame assed crap u keep writing. I can't believe you don't realize what a moron ass licker you are. it's pretty clear./ ooo poor baby don't want to hear what i'm saying, truth hurts don't it u retarded gay stupid fuck. now stfu.
@EnchancedHuman haha you are suuucccchhhh a fooool it's hilarious. little baby says "in real life i'd fight you" hahahahaha what a lame assed dumb fuck you are. your the moron that made a dumb comment to me and insulted me first. and now u want to act all brave on the net and mention fighting!!! hahaha you poor weak gay assed fool. i laugh at you and your tiny brain.
liberals are left wing. get it yet? stoopid fool. you don't even realize that facism and communism, right wing or left. is all controllled financed and manipulated by the same organization. the same ppl put in lennon are the same ppl put in hitler. and u idiots are arguing over which evil group is the good ones? you are all ignorant dumb fucks.
@DLJTMB Well if that is what people think about our best representative we will ever have the chance to elect then that makes the other guys look REALLLY BAD
Iggy has been groomed & paid for by the same international elitists that hand-picked the messiah Obama. The mass media will portray Iggy as Canada's next saviour & king of change just as they did with Obama. How can Canadians expect Iggy to respect and promote democracy in this country when he side-stepped democratic nomination? He has confessed that our constitutional rights & freedoms should be ignored when it suits his or others agenda. Say hello to the corporate NAU & goodbye to Canada
I remember CBC's little makeover they did on Iggy(nibbling his toast/jam, real warm and fuzzy doncha know) where he gushes of his love for the liberal party and believes Canada couldn't possibly last without a strong liberal party leading it.
L O L!!! Canada is the PEOPLE, not the doggon liberal party(or any other party)!!! Who the heck do these elitists think they are???
I see Jack doesn't want an election. Shocking, must be low on funds.
Oh the issues! Well now, funny how Iggy and co. won't back the upcoming budget when they were initially bragging they had a big hand in it's content. So that tells me even THEY won't approve their own budget lol.
So we're all s'posed to coronate Iggy solely on the claim only he/libs are destined to rule? He gives no policy or reason....
LOL!! Here we have someone who was defending communism on an Iggy clip. So I threw that at him to see his reaction. I got 2 marxists with one stone lol.
As for his lack of parenting, do a little search around utube and you'll see what I'm referring to.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Oh yea, I saw that clip, where a radio announcer asks a couple questions on an unsolicited, unexpected phone call to Iggy's ex wife. and a whole bunch of conjecture and wild speculation is fabricated to smear him. It's a fraud and you know it.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Tilbilly- Typical. Can't debate the issues so you just make shit up. Iggy "abandoned" his wife and only called his kids with "rare phone calls" . Embelishing and twisting the story, Never denied his a communist so he is a communist! Nice logic. Have you ever denied you were a Tyrannosaurs Rex? No? Therefore you must be a Tyrannosaurs Rex!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
hahaha nicely said superninja13
also, the ONLY mentions of iggy's "poor" parenting history is that youtube video which sites no sources. no biographies have included such information, and nowhere is there a mention of any interview with iggy's wife
therefore, its likely they took the bill o'reilly approach: making it all up!!

It is unfortunate that you have such a jaundiced view of the world. If I had to guess your personality, I would have to say the following: 1. Conservative. 2. Christian. 3. Average education. 4. Opinionated. 5. Close minded. 6. Someone who is easily convinced of conspiracies. 7. Some one who is afraid to look for the truth. I'm sure your a very nice person but, you don't seem to be able to carry on an intelligent conversation. I am now sure that I definitely have wasted my time. Goodbye.

3.Political leaders, who use their religious beliefs as an excuse to commit mass murder are not really a problem because they are "phony".
Does this include such political leaders as Slobodan Milošević , Omar Hassan Ahmad al-Bashir and Ariel Sharon, look up the Sabra and Shatila massacre?
4. The "hate" commercial you got the Trudeau quote from is just a quote mining hatchet job.
5. The liberal party allows it's members to speak for themselves, unlike the Harper conservatives.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Gee, can't think of any genocide motivated by religion. I don't really know or care if Igg's an atheist; but it's funny how you warp it; wanting health care/education = socialism = marxism = anti-jesus. Personally, I think the fabled Jesus would want to take care of sick, old and children. But it's like there's this pro-gun pro-jesus pro-oil anti-science wannabe Texan-Canadian running around screaming "the commies are comming!". Throw in some stuffy geriatrics and you got the Cons base.
You have some work to do. Those are political leaders who've done evil in the NAME of religon. They were phony, with the exception of 911.
Communists don't respect life, they USE it for their purpose and dispose.
So Iggy doesn't like Ukrainians, eh???
Of course, this is all to get the attention off Ignatieff. And Canadians made it clear they are content and DON'T want a $300 mill election and the same gov setup.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Lets go in reverse order. 1. Communists don't respect life. How do you know, for sure, that communists don't respect life? Are you a communist? Have you conducted a pole of all communists? Your statement is to generalized and has no support. Look up, dicto simpliciter. 2. Somehow 9/11 gets a pass, I guess it was real. In what way was it real? Did the hijackers really believe they where doing gods work? Or did they just simply fly the planes into the buildings? Seen next post for more.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
And yet, the list of atheist leaders is still not as long as the list of religious leaders who have used the excuse of righteousness through god to murder millions.
The slaughter of innocents in the name of god still continues today.
Unfortunately we, as a society are unwilling to stop this genocide.
Why is that I wonder.
What ever the reason, making a bold statement that atheist leaders have, and continue to, murdered millions is highly prejudicial and ignorant.
Canadians will see that Ignatieff is just in this for himself. Chretien picked him and pushed him into being leader, Dion slipped in by mistake. The grass roots didn't even get a chance to vote, Chretien and his gang just crowned Iggy.
I think most Canadian will see through this sham and swing their support to the conservatives. Iggy may be responisble for a conservative majority.
I don't think anyone is wimpy as Iggy can launch an attack on a wet noodle.
He's had his "time", now it's time to go back to school. He made it clear he relates to the US, and that's where he's been hiding 'til lately. He's not a leader. Period.
If you cannot see the altierior motives your slow, and obliviously do not think out side the box. He is a sleaze along with every other politician who is controlled by banks. NDP/PC/LIB/Green all the same party. WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!
Ignatieff is a Harper clone,he supports US policy rather than create Canadian Policy just like Harper does. Evidence by him standing up in support of the useless Bill C-15, full of polices even the Us is now pulling away from. He talks about saving money and helping people when bill C-15 will spend money on building prisons rather than treatment for the addicts. In Holland they are closing prisons, putting 1,200 guards out of work due to their crime rate dropping.We should be looking to Holland.
Iggy is an Opportunist or a Canadian of Convience. There is a huge difference between being an Expat and denouncing your country. Iggy, said he was an American and a Brit, so he clearly is not a patriotic Canadian. Its sad that the Liberal are so dense that they think they can put a non Canadian elitist as our Leader.
And Iggy argues about the economy. The ENTIRE world is in a recession and Canada is coming out of it better than anyone. So Iggy has no claim and he needs to go back to the US.
Hey YHChickita you have a very sound mind, to bad more people aren't like you.
I didn't like the conservative attack ads at first but you know what, they grow on you.
Iggy waving and sending kisses is like the Queen of Canada, god he is elitist.
I can't believe anyone would fall for this plant of Jean's. The liberals are so out of touch with the grass roots and they don't have a clue about it. PM Harper may not be the best but he is certainly better than Iggy!
for one the general population of Canada is not patriotic, sure we love our country but compared to other countries we are not patriotic. I think most Canadians are patriotic by declaring their native heritage in Canada since this is one of the only countries where we can. Ignatieff is a proud Canadian who is not afraid to show who he is and where he has served Canada for the majority of his career.
That is a ridiculous statement! Canadians are patriotic except the many Canadian of convience that come over to put up their flags of independence up. Its sick and only in Canada do we tolerate people who come over to use up our health care and education so they can move back or never integrate. This is why all Europe and Uk are moving to the right and so is Canada. All the Trudeau years have brought us are people who do not respect our country and find ways to expoite our tolerant ways.
halifaxcitadel if the conservatives had done that, the debt would now be over 100 billion. You know what the asshole Jack is like and Iggy is no better. Their answer to everything is spend more money. I don't know about you but when I don't have any money, I don't spend any. We will have to pay the bill at the end and god help us.
At least Harper was elected as leader of his party. The liberals don't believe in democracy, they just appoint a leader and don't allow any of us to vote.
Agreed! My liberal friends in that Lakeshore Riding were outraged that Iggy was parachuted in with no vote. They even locked the riding door 3 hrs early on the due date of nominations. Even though candidates were banging on the door, the office staff refused to open the door. How disgusting!!!
I think that Jean is behind all of this. It is really scary to think how little imput we really have in the whole process. I just don't know how I will vote in the next election, I don't like any of them.
I didn't want my tax dollars going into the black hole of GM and Chrysler. They should be allowed to go into bankruptcy quietly like any other company. Every company that government bailed out has failed in the end anyways. We will lose over 10 billion dollars for nothing. SAD.
Harper was forced into this situation. I am politically neutral as well; yet, because I point out the incredibly serious problems in the LIberal Party, I am deemed, "The Enemy". If only the Lieberals loved Canada as much as they love power--they would still be in gov't. Good lesson for them!
The conservatives will never be able to wash the stink of the religious right off of their hands though, and that is worse than anything the fiscals can say about anyone.
And all this " his buddy Barack" stuff is funny. I'd bet all you loved the ol' US of A when Bush was at the helm. Funny how political labels will put the blinders on as good as religion will. As usual, shortsighted maritimer.
Ignatieff is a "Dead Beat Dad"! Just check out our video for the proof. Canadian media are just ignoring it; have you ever heard 1 word about his kids or what kind of a parent he has been? Nope, that's not for the voters to know about. But we have it here on youtube, whether the media likes it or not.
Yeah, ok. This coming from a conservative. Remember when Adolf Harper dropped his kid off at school and shook his hand? I have to wonder when, if ever, will Stephen take out the stick that's been wedged in his ass for so long now.
"...whether the media likes it or not"....grow up, you idiot. It's all over the damn tv, and if I see that stupid thing again, I'll go against my better judgement and vote again next election, just to hopefully see you maggots fall.
Oh, sorry, I was referring to that idiotic ad that's all over the tv about "he's only in it for himself" crap. As if Harper has gives a damn about anyone but himself and his cronies.
Anyone who aligns themselves with any existing political system is fooling themselves and get what they deserve.
Anyone who aligns themselves with a non-existant political system is marginalized as they deserve.
Its easy to stand for nothing and throw stones. It is more difficult to try and determine which of the available options is best for Canada. You obviously dont care about that so enjoy commenting on a political thread saying how you dont believe in politics.
They are all criminals !! The whole lot of them,.Conservatives,NDP,.and the liberals!! All criminals who live in their own little world where we as taxpayers pay for their folly!!
Conservative fascists are warts on humanity. When the social conservatives realize they can't legislate morality, and finally fuck off, then the fiscal conservatives may actually get people other than rednecks and religious retards to listen.
If this is our savior we are in trouble. Global warming is real... and if you don't believe in it you must believe in peak oil. We are running out of oil and natural gas... and should be making a switch to solar, wind and geothermal now. Germany and many European nations are decades ahead of us in this capacity. If clowns like this are really concerned about the economy they would realize that sustainable energy is the boom of the future. I look at his quotes about energy and it saddens me.

Why don't you fuckers in the Liberal Party come up with some decent direction for this country. Always slamming each other in order to make yourself look good. What a waste of skin, fuck off.
Not that I like harper i dislike him very much too.
I haven t seen one politician with a vision for a wile in Canada. There are always reading a text someone else is typing for them because they can t have good idee of there own.
For the debt it is already too late my generation paying for it and the one to come after me too.
He critisizes Harper for deficit spending, yet demanded a stimulus package. He says that tax cuts won't help, that is an extremely partisan understanding, Reagan used tax cuts to turn the American economy from double digit unemployment to the most prosperous period in American history. Pull back taxes and the markets strengthen, in the end the government gains MORE revenue because there is more business. He talks about Harper playing politics and maneuvering but what is he doing with every word?
Total BS, he is afraid to close the gong show that is parliment. While Canada falls into a depression I hope all Canadians realize these Liberals are kisiing Harper and the foriegn banks butts! Canada is Canada not a North American Union minor policy "partner". This is WWF don't be fooled!
I was at that speech. He was talking about how he met this Lady at Union station in Toronto on the subway in the week prior. But on that same day he was giving a speech in Montreal. He is correct about half the people supporting the Prime Minister, that's a club full of fat cats.
Oh my god,,,we are doomed. This guy spent most of his life out of Canada, and now he's trying to tell people what it is like and what it feels like, to be a Canadian. He's a bad actor, spewing unconvincing "optimistic" political rhetoric, while trying to backpaddle his ass out of openly supporting the Harper budget. Now he's telling us that he won't allow the country to go into a deficit.We are in serious economic times here about to get a whole lot worse. Where's the cash coming from to help.
Wonderful to hear an educated and well spoken Michael Ignatieff speak about Canada and Canadians in this manner.
We have a great history of looking out for each other. That is the country I remember, before lyin' Brian, and the "reformed" neo-conservatives of Harper.and gang.
He still has no guts to take the Conservatives out of their non-demcratic control as the governor general proved. The liberals got concessions which means contracts or patronage. Trudue brought imigrants to be nannies in trade for citizenship and the wages were slave level. No difference,
Steven Harper is nothing but a banking stooge put in place to help the Bush plan of world control and total subjigation of the poor and less fortunate.He has used the goodness and peacfull nature of canadians against them ad its time for him to be unvieled for what he is.Baby Bush in a sheepsuit!

911 could not have been carried out without the complacency , or at worse the cooperation of this govt.Also the ex minister of defence,an honorable carreer military man wants the UFO secret released to the public.Its time Harper grows a heart!
Harper's already shown us what he can do. That's why we'll have a 13 billion dollar deficit even before the economic stimulus package. Something the Tories lied about 2 months ago. It's time for a change of leadership, and soon.
31 seconds in and he's talking about listening.. I bet he listened really well when the Liberals were all but wiped out in the last election. See you Iggy.

It's pathetic that some Canadian conservatives are claiming Ignatieff was not born in Canada. Our very own "Birther Movement" - how original...

Iggy needs to go quit trying to convince the Canadian public he cares about the issues that face them. I don't believe he really has a firm grasp on what the issues are, its hard to know what we want when you live apart from Canadians for so long And his lack of knowledge is obvious in his address at the debate He is using attacks to get votes instead of adressing where he believes Canadians want their values allocated which is a strong indication that he hasn't a clue of what Canadians value

Here is a troubling question - Why do all Canadian politicians swear allegiance to a foreign queen ( Elizabeth 2nd of United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) when Schedule 5 of the constitution of Canada does not require that oath?
Another question - Why do Canadian politicians all pretend that there is a parliament of Canada when parliament is clearly defined in the constitution as a 3-part entity that includes Queen Victoria who died in 1901?
One more - why is Israel a friend?

It should be noted that when Trudeau was in power, the national debt rose from $18 billion, in 1968, to a debt that stood at $200 billion in 1984. Rather funny that the Liberals complain about a $42 billion deficit when they have the highest record of poor fiscal responsibility.
baird007 1 year ago 3
@baird007 Exactly. Mulroney actually cut Trudeau's deficit in half, but you have to convert to real dollars to see that.
Also the success of the Canadian economy in the 1990's, and hence the Liberals ability to eliminate the deficit, is thanks to 3 key Mulroney policies: 1) GST 2) Free Trade and 3) the 2% inflation target for the Bank of Canada.
liberty4canada 1 year ago
@liberty4canada Glad to know that there are some other educated people out there who know their history. Mulroney had abysmal policies in regards to foreign aid, but at least he had the sense to replace the manufacturing sales tax that was killing jobs and be more open to let the private sector work. Everyone should know that true prosperity comes from the private sector. In terms of government, less is truly more.

Iggy is an Opportunist or a Canadian of Convience. There is a huge difference between being an Expat and denouncing your country. Iggy, said he was an American and a Brit, so he clearly is not a patriotic Canadian. Its sad that the Liberal are so dense that they think they can put a non Canadian elitist as our Leader.
And Iggy argues about the economy. The ENTIRE world is in a recession and Canada is coming out of it better than anyone. So Iggy has no claim and he needs to go back to the US.

Nope, that's not for the voters to know about. But we have it here on youtube, whether the media likes it or not.

Yeah, ok. This coming from a conservative. Remember when Adolf Harper dropped his kid off at school and shook his hand? I have to wonder when, if ever, will Stephen take out the stick that's been wedged in his ass for so long now.
"...whether the media likes it or not"....grow up, you idiot. It's all over the damn tv, and if I see that stupid thing again, I'll go against my better judgement and vote again next election, just to hopefully see you maggots fall.

Not even one interview with the mother of Iggy's children is being shown anywhere else. You must be confused.
Canadian2009able 2 years ago
Oh, sorry, I was referring to that idiotic ad that's all over the tv about "he's only in it for himself" crap. As if Harper has gives a damn about anyone but himself and his cronies.
Anyone who aligns themselves with any existing political system is fooling themselves and get what they deserve.
You ALL suck!

Anyone who aligns themselves with a non-existant political system is marginalized as they deserve.
Its easy to stand for nothing and throw stones. It is more difficult to try and determine which of the available options is best for Canada. You obviously dont care about that so enjoy commenting on a political thread saying how you dont believe in politics.
It suits you.

Socalists,
Communists,
Capitalists,
Liberals,
Democrats,
Republicans,
Conservatives...these are all labels. Labels that act as shortcuts to thinking.
And arguing against or for these labels (what we've been doing since it's inception) is acomplishing nothing more than wasting time.
When will we realize that not all liberals have the same opinions and ideas, same with any other labeled group? Same goes for religous beliefs.
We need to quit seperating ourselves and come togeather ....

Conservative fascists are warts on humanity. When the social conservatives realize they can't legislate morality, and finally fuck off, then the fiscal conservatives may actually get people other than rednecks and religious retards to listen.

If this is our savior we are in trouble. Global warming is real... and if you don't believe in it you must believe in peak oil. We are running out of oil and natural gas... and should be making a switch to solar, wind and geothermal now. Germany and many European nations are decades ahead of us in this capacity. If clowns like this are really concerned about the economy they would realize that sustainable energy is the boom of the future. I look at his quotes about energy and it saddens me.

Why don't you fuckers in the Liberal Party come up with some decent direction for this country. Always slamming each other in order to make yourself look good. What a waste of skin, fuck off.

No vision, not impress.
Not that I like harper i dislike him very much too.
I haven t seen one politician with a vision for a wile in Canada. There are always reading a text someone else is typing for them because they can t have good idee of there own.
For the debt it is already too late my generation paying for it and the one to come after me too.

He critisizes Harper for deficit spending, yet demanded a stimulus package. He says that tax cuts won't help, that is an extremely partisan understanding, Reagan used tax cuts to turn the American economy from double digit unemployment to the most prosperous period in American history. Pull back taxes and the markets strengthen, in the end the government gains MORE revenue because there is more business. He talks about Harper playing politics and maneuvering but what is he doing with every word?

Total BS, he is afraid to close the gong show that is parliment. While Canada falls into a depression I hope all Canadians realize these Liberals are kisiing Harper and the foriegn banks butts! Canada is Canada not a North American Union minor policy "partner". This is WWF don't be fooled!

I was at that speech. He was talking about how he met this Lady at Union station in Toronto on the subway in the week prior. But on that same day he was giving a speech in Montreal. He is correct about half the people supporting the Prime Minister, that's a club full of fat cats.

Oh my god,,,we are doomed. This guy spent most of his life out of Canada, and now he's trying to tell people what it is like and what it feels like, to be a Canadian. He's a bad actor, spewing unconvincing "optimistic" political rhetoric, while trying to backpaddle his ass out of openly supporting the Harper budget. Now he's telling us that he won't allow the country to go into a deficit.We are in serious economic times here about to get a whole lot worse. Where's the cash coming from to help.

Wonderful to hear an educated and well spoken Michael Ignatieff speak about Canada and Canadians in this manner.
We have a great history of looking out for each other. That is the country I remember, before lyin' Brian, and the "reformed" neo-conservatives of Harper.and gang.

The Liberal party DOES have a great history of looking out for... all those who support the Liberal Party.
Maybe you should go wikipedia "adscam", and show me how that compares to airbus or any corruption in the present govt.
$100 000 000! Much of that finding its way back to the Liberal coffers. Ya they looked out for each other alright.
Take off the red-coloured glasses which only see the Cons shortcomings.

He still has no guts to take the Conservatives out of their non-demcratic control as the governor general proved. The liberals got concessions which means contracts or patronage. Trudue brought imigrants to be nannies in trade for citizenship and the wages were slave level. No difference,

Steven Harper is nothing but a banking stooge put in place to help the Bush plan of world control and total subjigation of the poor and less fortunate.He has used the goodness and peacfull nature of canadians against them ad its time for him to be unvieled for what he is.Baby Bush in a sheepsuit!

Harper's already shown us what he can do. That's why we'll have a 13 billion dollar deficit even before the economic stimulus package. Something the Tories lied about 2 months ago. It's time for a change of leadership, and soon.
