"After 8 years of Justin Trudeau, rent has doubled" –@pierrepoiLIEvre

According to the @CMHC, these are avg. rents in Toronto [bachelor, 1 br, 2 br, 3, br, overall average] in Oct. 2015 (avg. $1,208) and Oct. 2023 (avg. $1,830)

That's ⬆️~51.5%, not ⬆️100% as PP claims.

RE: ⬆️FUN FACT, the CPC was government from Feb. 2006–Nov. 2015.

Avg. rent, Oct. 2006: $995.
Avg. rent, Oct. 2023: $1,830

Avg. rent has ⬆️ ~84% since Harper became PM, EIGHTEEN YEARS AGO!

PP wants you to believe it doubled in 8 years when it hasn't even doubled since 2006.

1. "After 8 years of Justin Trudeau, the debt has doubled" - @pierrepoiLIEvre

"Government debt is measured by economists and federal reserves as % to GDP. Not dollars and cents. Based on the widely accepted measurement by experts." - @PierreIsLying

So let's look at it.
2. When PoiLIEvre/Harper assumed governing office in 2006, the debt-to-GDP ratio was ~43.3%.

When they were given the boot in 2015 -- seven years AFTER the 2008 crash and "Great Recession" -- our debt had RISEN to ~56% (or about a 13% greater share) of GDP.

That's not good.

3. #PMJT actually reduced our debt-to-GDP ratio from ~56% to ~53.3% in the lead-up to the COVID it.

He literally was fixing the mess PoiLIEvre/Harper left.

Reading the full text of the Federal Court decision on invocation of the Emergencies Act and posting interesting nuggets

🧵/2
It would seem that this particular one applicant was grandstanding and tried to make it look like she was speaking for way more people than just herself.

She was quickly and summarily bounced out right on her butt.

🧵/3 Image
The court didn't side with Alberta. It wasn't even an applicant.

At best, Alberta was the cheese that stood alone. All other provincial AGs passed on this opportunity

1. NOTE: Top row created by @TrueEager with available data from the article for easier comparison.

Wow!

What a difference a bit more than 2 weeks make.

The kicking the tires phase is over. The PP Honeymoon is over. And the fakeover was a massive failure
Image
2. The last poll, from any company, that had the spread at 10 points or fewer was back in September. Image
3. The last Abacus poll, specifically, that had the spread at 10 points or fewer was in early August.

In about just two weeks, @PierrePoilievre -- by just being Pierre -- destroyed ALL THE WORK the @CPC_HQ has done over THE PAST FOUR MONTHS!

He's now officially a liability. Image

1. FUN FACTS TO COUNTER CPC / PP BS ON INFLATION

According to Department of Finance Fiscal Reference Tables, in the years before Harper became prime minister, there were nine consecutive years of budgetary surpluses, from 1997 to 2007.
2. During that period, inflation rates during that were 1.62% and 1% in 1997 and 1998, respectively, then ranged from 1.73% to 2.76% in the years during which we paid down the most debt, despite that we recorded a surplus of over $79 billion over 8 of those years.
3. Comparatively, during the first eight years of the Harper era, the alleged "trained economist" managed to produce a deficit of almost $127 billion. During that period, inflation ranged from 0.3% to 2.91%.

A. Three Truths:

1. Israel has right to defend itself
2. Hamas must be eliminated
3. There are STILL rules to war

#PMJT was tasked with this by a collection of Israel's traditional allies as THE geopolitical risk they wish to avoid is Saudi Arabia flipping back to Iran's camp.
B. THE goal is to contain this regionally.

SA realpolitik: There are only so many Palestinian civilian casualties it can look past without having to break ties with Israel to work with Iran. The US (and allies) need to show they can rein #Netanyahu in.

And Bibi's not listening.
C. Many are even concerned that the current PM of Israel — who is still very concerned with keeping his own backside out of jail and who knows the massive intelligence failure that led to this means his ass is grass when this is over — would welcome such an escalation.
