Canada's GDP Per capita is now $10,000 lower than Mississipi, the poorest state in the U.S. Canada-$56K/year. Mississipi-$66K/year.

Our GDP per capita was competitive with the U.S. until 2015.

Quote from: Brent on February 21, 2026, 12:35:54 PMDo you mean Mexico exports more to the States than us or imports more from the States than us?
They import more. They will soon export more to the US than us too.

The answer is obvious: the average liberal supporter is smarter than everyone else.  Smarter than the Bank of Canada that just warned the government of impending recession, smarter than the Parliamentary Budget Office that just warned the government and the country that we as a nation are headed off a cliff, smarter than all the rest of us who have been questioning the government and their policies.  No, it is clear, the average Liebral is smarter than everyone.   
Now go wipe the drool off your faces and change your diapers. There may be a snap "smart test" coming soon for all those "smart" peoples.

Harper (2006–2015): Grew slowly but steadily — about 0.5% per year on average.
Trudeau/Carney (2015–now): Almost no real growth per person — only 0.3% average, and it's been shrinking in many recent years. Most Canadians are poorer per person now than they should be.

Crime (especially violent crime like assaults & robberies):
Harper years: Crime was dropping year after year.
Trudeau/Carney years: Violent crime jumped 34–50% since 2015. Homicides went from 1.5 to around 2 per 100,000 people. Streets feel less safe in many cities.

Drugs (opioid deaths & addiction crisis):
Harper years: The opioid problem was small and contained.
Trudeau/Carney years: Explosion — over 50,000+ opioid deaths since 2016 (20+ people dying every day at the worst points). Still very high even in 2025–2026.

Homelessness:
Harper years: Numbers were stable — didn't explode.
Trudeau/Carney years: Shot up big time — up 20% nationally since 2018, chronic homelessness up 38%, people sleeping outside up over 300% in some counts. Encampments everywhere despite billions spent.

Inflation (how much prices rise for food, gas, rent, etc.):
Harper years: Prices rose slowly and stayed manageable (about 18% total increase over his decade for basics).
Trudeau/Carney years: Much worse — food prices up over 50%, groceries costing families hundreds more per year, big spikes in 2022 (6.8%). Even now in 2025–2026, food inflation stays high compared to other countries.

Bottom line for everyday Canadians:
Under Harper things felt more stable — wages kept up better, crime was lower, fewer people on the streets or dying from drugs, and groceries didn't hurt the wallet as much.
Under the Liberals (Trudeau then Carney), most of these problems got a lot worse for regular families. Facts from StatsCan and health reports — no spin! ✊
The simple facts are when you compare the previous consevative government to the past eleven years of failed liberal policies, the evidence is abundant.

Affordability crisis: Escalated prices for essentials.

Deficit spending failure: Did not boost incomes.

National unity weakening: Federal intrusions into provinces.

Ethics violations: Repeated breaches eroded trust.

SNC-Lavalin scandal: Destabilized government.

Blaming foreign governments for these failures is ludicrous.  Blaming, the opposition government that has not been in power for 11 years is also ludicrous. These failures are a result of poor policies from the liberals from the past 11 years.  There is no economic rebound from Carney that is implementing the same policies and carrying on with Trudeau era failed ministers shuffled into different positions that they can fail in.

Electoral reform failure: Promised but not delivered except for Justin Trudeau and Jagmeet Singh, expanding Pierre Polliever's riding into sixty percent liberal dominated territory, leading to his first loss since he won that riding over twenty years ago.  A convenient talking point neglecting the boundary change of his riding.  That was the liberal's idea of election reform.

Infrastructure bank flop: Did not deliver market solutions.

Progressive tax shortfalls: System not made more equitable.

Housing financialization: Unchallenged, leading to skyrocketing rents.

Voter exhaustion: Liberals at historic lows among youth.

Gun control frustrations: Ineffectively targeted law-abiding owners.
