Your posts are always rich in irony. A raging partisan baboon complaining about politicians doing what politicians do.

This is the ultimate in dick swinging contests. The PC's can at any time stop the house and introduce the budget. They won't do it without getting their omnibus bills jammed through first. So what's in these bills that you don't want anyone to see?

what a idiotic comment. is someone not allowed to have a vacation property or take a vacation. it's worth less than many Lake of the Woods cabins, would make make the same moronic comments if he had a cabin in Kenora?

and as a matter of fact, it delayed his trip to Ottawa where all the premiers were meeting. now, in the end that got cancelled bcuz of the virus.

Socialists are mostly always jealous and envious of others success, their lack of success has more to do with an inferiority complex which they never seem to be able to get over!

Palister choose to run for a very public position, and therefore should expect that people will notice and make comments (both good and bad) that he has a vacation home in Costa Rica as well as the largest house on Wellington Crescent.

He is a big boy, I am sure he can deal with the barbs. I am not sure why anyone here feels the need to come to his defence.

I'm not issuing an official government statement ffs. lol I'm by no means an NDP supporter that's for sure. I just dislike these people who focus on pettiness rather than being professional.

You can bet your ass I suck up my pride at work and be professional when others are lobbing bombs via email or whatever else. I work in an industry where I deal with a lot of the 'blue collar' workers. Who don't give a shit about anything and say what they want whenever they want.

Another raging, roided up comment. Hope your self-indignation doesn’t spoil your day.

So you are painting all blue collar workers as people who don’t give a shit about anything? Priceless.

Wow, Oooooooo.....name calling, always the lowest common denominator from the ignorant left! Looks like Ando has jumped both feet in to fill the shit disturber role played by the permanently non-voluntary departed Pinus!

On a totally different topics, some good news, IMO, from the courts.

Posted on CBC Manitoba website:
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manit...yout-1.5500190

Usually I support compensating Indigenous groups for injustices they have actually suffered, but IMO this claim from the MMF was really noting more than extortion. I hope the MMF looks for new leadership that wants to support their people without these gimmicky threats.

IMO.

A perfectly good decision by a judge who Judy Wilson-Reybould wanted to appoint to the Supreme Court!

Metis have no more right to the land the Hydro line was going to cross than anyone else!

Chartrand is nothing more than a fat bag of hot air!

Chartrand is the best example of bad indigenous leadership. I hope his people dump him soon.

Sadly with both First Nations and the Métis Nations you don’t seem to get the best and brightest leading, what they have been getting are uneducated opportunists who can shout the loudest.

Not painting all leadership of those two groups with that brush but there seems to be a preponderance of bad leadership that holds both groups back!

Late to the party.

You're correct on the $1B deficit in the last year in office.

Your other accusations are partisan bafflegab. This isn't my opinion though, it's fact. Go review the historical government financial statements, look at independent 3rd party reviews of Manitoba Gov't financial performance. When you actually look at the data, the NDP are much better financial stewards than the PCs have been.

Yeah ok, I’ll play along guess were not accounting for the fact that the speNDP were in power when the Canadian economy was pretty strong and revenue to govt. was good, even then they managed to drive the provincial debt. into the stratosphere!

Not all, but a lot. Is proven time and time again on job sites. Usually has to do with people not reading the contracts they signed. I'm a big boy and can take their abuse.

You're revealing yourself to be nothing more than a partisan hack.

The NDP ran surpluses every year except 1 until 2008. And that one year was because of an accounting change. They hit a deficit in '08 and each subsequent year until the last, reduced the deficit.

The PCs just introduced a budget that has a deficit that could go as high as $900M. By the next election, they'll still be running deficits, and you'll still be crowing about how the NDP were supposedly worse.

And Wab and the speNDP are upset that the 2020 provincial budget doesn't include more spending and this without knowing what the final tally for the COVID-19 pandemic will cost the province. Now that suggestion is completely irresponsible and why Wab nor the speNDP should ever be allowed to govern or have access to anyone's tax dollars!

You seem to revealing yourself as a simpleton!
