Quote from: "Bricktop"Rising costs...particularly fuel. Macron is trying to get France to comply with the Paris agreement by taxing the hell of of French people.



So prices are rising rapidly and irrationally. The French are volatile at best. It is no coincidence that the first revolution occurred in France.



They almost succeeded in forcing the De Gaulle government out in 1968...De Gaulle had a plane standing by to take him to the UK if the rioters breached the government building.


Well when a country doesnt have abundant sources of oil, gas or hydro power like Canada, it needs to get the money from somewhere to pay for it.



The Brave New World Energy consumption hasn't entirely become a reality yet.



Otherwise the French government wouldn't be taxing the hell out of their own people

Quote from: "Gaon"
Quote from: "Bricktop"In other words, the opposition is either not heeding the wish of the people...or not enough people are wanting any changes.

The Conservative Party of Andre Scheer is not very conservative at all. This is why the man who lost the leadership race to Andrew Scheer on the twelfth ballot started a real conservative party that will split the vote and guarantee Trudeau another majority.



Is the Conservative Party of Canada conservative enough?

The party won't win the next election, or any others, if it can't connect with voters on the issues that Maxime Bernier is championing

As someone who voted Liberal in 2015, I may vote for Scheer in 2019.



I don't like how Trudeau is running up deficits.



His finance minister Bill Mourneau seems to promote neo liberal as opposed to actual Socially liberal policies all the while running up the national debt. So in reality is the worst of both. Socially regressive policies and poor fiscal management.



That someone like Scheer could apoeal to the other side says something for him.



Evidently, Maxime Bernier's poor sportsmanship folliwing his loss at the conservative leadership convention demonstrated why he would have been a bad choice for Tory party leader.

Trudeau, Scheer, and the rag head are all prog pieces of shit. We have the illusion of democracy in the country. We have no real choice.

However if Scheer is a more fiscally responsible version of what you describe, then he may still be the better choice next time.

I hate fiscal conservatives. They are always progressives just like SB.

[size=150]Macron Surrenders on carbon taxes[/size]



The yellow vests have won.  Macron first delayed the carbon taxes for six months, now he has abandoned them completely.

Finally, common sense defeats ideological symbolism. It won't happen in Canada though.

ALL governments will now very carefully consider taxing us to pay for the global warming follies.

Macron's latest



"Let them use carpools" ...



OK, OK, not quite  the exact phraseology, but the meaning of what he said is exact



That phrase is spiraling around France .. He will never get free of it  "Laissez-les utiliser le covoiturage"
