  1. Will the top party get 35 pct of the total votes ???

    FATAL FPTP and Parl systems in Canada – due to Brits.

    ——
    PR
    APPV
    TOTSOP

  2. Ahh, if only the US Green Party could get its act together like this. And, Canada is first past the post like the US, albeit within a parliamentary system.

  3. Demo Rep frothing at the mouth even more than normal, as the Liberal Party, since it’s not leftist, is obviously not “commie.” Maybe last week’s flood of wingnut trolls addled him.

  4. Demo Rep: The latest polls have the Conservatives at 33% thr Liberals at 31% and the New Democrats at 21%. It is likely that no party will get more than 35%.

    Trudeau made the same mistake as former British Prime Minister Teresa May. Call an early election and end up losing seats.

  5. Don’t listen to Stock. Stock’s religion involves ritual abortion, i.e. the dismemberment of live human fetuses. Imagine literally ripping human beings limb from limb and being proud of it.

  6. Fact Checker: I do support abortion being legal. I have no problem with killing an unborn baby if the mother thinks it is in her best interests.

    That has nothing to do with Satanism. I have thought there is nothing wrong with abortion many years before I joined the Church of Satan.

  7. Fact Checker: What does my agreement that abortion should be legal have anything to do with my reporting what I have read regarding the upcoming Canadian election?

  8. I wish we had Canada’s ballot access laws, even as I also wish they would go for PR or RCV.

    Will be interesting to see what happens with the People’s Party and the Green Party. Sounds like Quebecois Party will get more seats than either of those, again.

    There is no reason to have a debate about US abortion politics on this post.

  9. Skylar Covich: For a little while in the 1990s I think that the Bloc was the main opposition party. From what I have seen on Canadian TV news the Bloc is not doing to well now.

    I agree with you about abortion. The only reason that came up is because Fact Checker is enraged that I make any post about any subject. His blind hatred compells him to say what he imagines to be harmful to me.

  10. Which worst 10 minority rule gerrymander regimes in Western Civilization are the most bankrupt ???

    Govt debt as percent of GDP – due to commie J.M. Keynes brain rot since 1914 —

    give out govt money to looters to consume goods/services.

    USA- annual borrow/spend about 25 percent more than govt taxes – since 1929 peacetime years —
    91 years plus.

    Above due to minority rule gerrymanders in 3 USA election systems and likewise in States/locals election systems.

  11. Demo Rep: Until the money stops no one is going to believe that there is a problem. I say continue the looting and redistribution of taxpayer money for goods and services.

    Not one single country who is committed to a Welfare State is anywhere near collapse. They all seem to be doing fine. Canada is a good example. The United States should be more like Canada.

  12. I should clarify what I mean by countries committed to a Welfare State.

    I am referring to countries where the redistribution of taxpayer money goes to the ordinary citizens and not to the President, his family, or his favorite politicians.

  13. Racist Stock admits his communism again by wanting to be more like Canada. He did admit he has no clue about Canadian politics. The Québécois are limited to Quebec, so how could they be the opposition? That’s just retardedness.

    The Liberals are indeed far left commies, and the Conservatives aren’t much different. The NDP is even more so.

  14. The Bloc Quebecois became the official opposition party in 1993. They had the second highest number of members of Parliament. The Bloc won every Riding in Quebec except one. That number was more than all the other parties throughout Canada making the Bloc the official opposition for a few years.

  15. Canadian Parliament in 1993

    Liberals. 177
    Bloc Quebecois. 54
    Reform. 52
    New Democrats. 9
    Progressive Conservatives. 2

  16. USA govt debt monetized —

    aka money supply inflated

    >>> price inflation

    >>> more destruction of paper savings of lower/middle classes.

    Commies love it — like Biden, Obama, Clinton I.

    Econ MORON foreigners using their trade surpluses since 1982 to buy USA debt.

    BAAAADE debt setup for Great Depression III now about 50-200 times that in 1929.

    BIDEN COMMIE Deficits vs so-called debt limit CRISIS in gerrymander Congress NOW.

  17. Demo Rep: Until the money actually stops, you are just chicken little yelling about the sky falling.

  18. See

    https://www.cbo.gov/

    for econ trends.

    What happened to the olde bankrupt Spanish / French / British / etc. empires —
    due to wars / welfare ??? Answer – all D-E-A-D with many creditors wiped out.

    USA obviously next on the list ??? Duh.

  19. SAVINGS = INVESTMENT — BY DEFINITION

    A-L-L GOVT DEFICITS ON LEFT CUT INVESTMENT ON RIGHT —

    IE CAUSE/WORSEN RECESSIONS/DEPRESSIONS —

    IE CUT JOBS, JOBS, JOBS [ESP IN CONSTRUCTION – BUILDINGS, LARGE MACHINES] —

    REGARDLESS OF ALL COMMIE RAVINGS SINCE 1914 J M KEYNES — SPECIAL BANKRUPTOR / DESTROYER OF THE BRIT EMPIRE AND NOW THE USA SINCE 1929.

    GENERATIONS OF BRAINWASHED STUDENTS IN HIGH SKOOOL / COLLEGE ECON CLASSES

    >>> SOME LATER INTO USA GERRYMANDER CONGRESS — STATIST MONSTERS LIKE PELOSI / SCHUMER / BIDEN.

  20. Demo Rep: If that happens then it will certainly be deserved. Don’t try to stop it. Let’s do what we can to hurry it up.

    All of the countries you listed still exist. The people who live there are the descendants of those living when the Empires were at their height. Since they survived so will we. So what if the rich fat cats lost their money and property? The people abide.

  21. Germany 1923 –

    Moron France regime puts military threat pressure on German regime to pay moron WW I 1919 Vers. Treaty debt – German WWI death/destruction in N. France.

    German regime inflates to billions
    >>> savings of low/middle classes wiped out
    >>> Nov 1923 Hitler mini-rebellion in Bavaria
    >>> later 1933-1945 Hitler killer/enslaver regime
    >>> about 80 million DEAD in world.

    Germany paid off last of WW I VT debt in 2012 – purchasing power loss – 90 plus pct (???).

    STATIST econ stuff can have FATAL results.

  22. Demo Rep: Germany was not one of the fallen Empires you listed. Spain, France, and Britain have done very well for themselves after the loss of their Empires.

    The German wheel barrows full of cash in the early 1920s was a thing of the past by 1930. The German government was following a plan to pay off their debt. The economic situation in Germany did not pave the way for Hitler as is the common misconception.

    Only Japan went to war in the 1930s for economic reasons. Germany and Italy did not.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperinflation

    Germany 4.6

    After the Oct 1929 USA stock market crash the USA banks stopped making added loans to German biz >>>
    1929-1933 econ collapse in Germany as in USA and Europe — also much less imports / exports

    >>> rise in nazi votes in 1929-1932 German elections
    >>> Hitler APPOINTED German prime minister by senile German Prez Hindenburg 30 Jan 1933.

    —-
    All 3 of the statist killer/enslaver Axis regimes went to W-A-R for econ reasons –

    conquer / kill / enslave / econ loot.

    Japan 1931 Manchuria
    Italy 1935 Abys- Ethiopia
    Germany 1939 Poland.

    Underlying economics —- $$$ OIL = energy = econ POWER.

    Too many NEW AGE political econ M-O-R-O-N-S to count.

  24. Demo Rep: I stand by my statements. There is no line connecting the fall of Empires with Germany starting WWII.

    You have gone off on a tangent that has nothing to do with my belief that if the United States economy screeches to a halt and the corporate overlords lose their money, property, and power then that will be great!!! The vast majority of the people will be fine.

    The faster the downfall of the present oligarchy the better. Will innocent people die in the upheaval? I don’t know. Maybe. But that is acceptable. It took the deaths of hundreds of Working Class Americans in the late 1800s and early 1900s for us to have 8 hour days and 40 hour weeks. Was it worth the pain and heart ache? Yes.

    Burn down the present order and rebuild from the ashes. Don’t prop up a dying system.

  25. Demo Rep: Incase I haven’t emphasized it enough. Your thoughts on the rise of Hitler echo the common misconceptions and are not accurate.

  26. Darryl W Perry said:

    “Interesting that the Rhinoceros Party has more candidates than the Libertarians.”

    With Vermin Supreme in the US LP, is it on the right track?

  27. RKS NAZI HISTORY VS

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Rise_and_Fall_of_the_Third_Reich

    ESP EARLY PART – MACHINATIONS IN 1932-1933 —
    MANY MACHINATORS KILLED BY HITLER KILLERS IN LATE JUNE 1934.
    —-
    FATAL DEFECT IN 1919 GERMANY WIEMAR CONST ALLOWING REGIME TO SUSPEND BILL OF RIGHTS / ELECTIONS
    >>> 1933 NAZI ENABLING ACT >>> NAZI ONE PARTY STATE >>> FIRST NAZI CONCENTRATION CAMP FOR ANTI-NAZIS.

    LIKEWISE RUSSIA / USSR COMMIE PURGES – 1918-1922 CIVIL WAR, 1931-1932 UKRAINE, 1935-1939 MASS PURGES – PARTY AND MILITARY.

    TOO MANY NEW AGE POLITICAL HISTORY M-O-R-O-N-S TO COUNT.

  28. One thing that is clearly definite:

    The filing requirements for candidates in Canada are much more reasonable than in the US.

  29. Can we ritually abort Fact Checker? Actually, per David Hume’s crack about Intelligent Design, I think Fact Checker IS a ritual abortion by an inept junior god on a practice run.

    And, maybe “stupid,” “trollish,” “loathsome” and “reptilian” are all better adjectives than “blind”?

  30. Fact Checker knows how to Google me, that’s nice.

    I don’t agree with Stock on everything, including on his position regarding abortion, but the harassment campaign against him on this site is bizarre. Don’t drag me into it.

  31. SocraticGadfly always posts about loving communism. So does Stock. Stock admits to being a racist evil devil worshiper.

  32. As of September 7th the polls in Canada have the Liberals in a slight lead with 34% the Conservatives with 32% and the New Democrats with 21%. The Green Party and the People’s Party are both at 4%.

  33. Mr Libertarian: Today is Thursday September 9th around 130 AM Central Time. A poll from another country on Tuesday September 7th is outdated? What are the latest polls that you have access to? Please let us know the up to date percentages.

  34. Trudeau and the Liberal Party are being helped by the harassment he is receiving from fanatic anti vaxxers in the People’s Party.

    Small groups have shown up at every campaign stop screaming Fuck Trudeau at the top of their lungs. At one stop gravel and small stones were hurled at him.

    The Liberals poll numbers have gone up a little due to sympathy for Trudeau being harassed. The People’s Party are hurting themselves instead of hurting the Liberals.

  35. Not surprised racist Stock is against protesting. Communists like him aren’t fans of people rising up.

  36. Wayne: I didn’t say if I agreed or disagreed with the protesters. I said their actions are having the opposite effect of what they want.

    I am not surprised that you tried to twist what I did say into something I did not.

    You are a dishonest person.

  37. I have just seen a poll from Wednesday morning September 8th

    Conservatives 33%
    Liberals 32%
    Bloc Quebecois 5%
    Green 4%
    People’s Party 4%

    A very tight race between Liberals and Conservatives. It looks like the sympathy vote for Trudeau is subsiding. Eleven days to go.

  38. LOL racist Stock calling someone dishonest when he pretended to be a libertarian for years.

  39. From 1992 until 2020 I was a dues paying member of the Libertarian Party. I registered to vote Libertarian. I gave money to Libertarian candidates. I gave speeches at public events for the Libertarian Party. I was Libertarian Party Chair in Texas and Oregon.

    How the Hell is that pretending? I am no longer a Libertarian, but I used to be.

    Just like Penn Jillette. He used to be a Libertarian but switched to the Democratic Party un 2020. He said that the anti vax people and rise of President Trump has led him to believe that Libertarian ideas have caused dangerous outcomes.

  40. If you pay Libertarian Party dues, register to vote Libertarian, campaign for Libertarian Party candidates,and give money to Libertarian Party candidates, then you are a Libertarian.

    When you stop doing those things then you are no longer a Libertarian.

  41. I was Libertarian County Chair in Texas and Oregon. I left out the word County in my comment above.

  42. Canadian poll from the television channel CTV Friday September 10th

    Conservatives. 33
    Liberals. 31
    New Democrats. 19
    Boc Quebecois. 6
    People’s Party. 5
    Green. 4

  43. Your still a no dues lubertarian party member unless and until you expressly rescind your signature in there dumb and deceptive cult membership oath. I did, and if you haven’t, you should two.

  44. Hey Bartender: I have registered to vote Democratic and no longer give money to the Libertarian Party. I have publicly renounced my membership in the Libertarian Party. I don’t care if they keep me on their membership roll because my actions prove that I am no longer a Libertarian.

  45. Yore choice. S3nding [[[them]]] my cut up membership card and a renunciation of the b.s. oath made it offIcial. Butt U do ewe.

  46. Canadian poll from Sunday September 12th

    Liberals. 34%
    Conservatives. 31%
    New Democrats. 19%
    Bloc Quebecois. 7%
    People’s Party. 5%
    Green. 4%

    Liberals have gone up, Conservatives have gone down. Still too close to call. 8 days to go.

  47. Canada stops polling one week before elections. The final poll from Monday September 13th

    Liberals. 32%
    Conservatives. 31%
    New Democrats. 19%
    Bloc Quebecois 7%
    People’s Party. 7%
    Green. 4%

    150 seats for the Liberals 120 seats for the Conservatives and 39 seats for the New Democrats are projected. The People’s Party and Green Party were not included in the speculation of seats in Parliament.

    Canada usually counts the votes very quickly so we should know the results the night of Monday September 20th.
