You can pretend that they don't want you dead...
but in actuality...

It started with the coalition government coming after your vitamins and supplements…lead into them wanting to reduce methane - which we all know means culling of herds to extinction and now they are coming after your vegetables too.

The New P2 plastic ban would thrust us back into 1970s-80s era for fruit and vegetables where a lot of items weren’t available year round, seasonally and locally grown only, and rotted in the grocery bags before you got them home.

On top of this, because of the added spoilage, in store, you can count on any item that is available to be a lot more expensive.

You see, in the 3% earnings that grocery stores are making, things like theft, spoilage and returned items that cannot be resold are factored in…and when you increase one of these factors, stores will consequentially push these prices on to YOU.

Now…look at affordability, where we’re at right now.

A lot of people aren’t able to buy a lot of fruits and only essentials on some veg and are instead subbing in ZERO value fillers to complete their meals…again, just like we did in the 70s-80s. Rice, pasta or potatoes as meal fillers…potatoes as available.

And when you consider that the processed grains are leading to the on-growing problem of obesity and malnutrition…you’d have to wonder why anybody would make these more abundant for consumption by driving up the costs and lowering availability of better quality foods…if they cared about their health.

As for beef, in case you missed it, 3 days ago the government released this:

New report denounces Havana and claims ‘campaign of subversion’ has infiltrated highest levels of US government

"...There is overwhelming evidence that the machinery of the Cuban Government has been progressively organized around… a fundamental hatred of the United States,” the report stated. “Many of the most significant upheavals in recent American political history —from the George Floyd riots to the rise of Antifa to the explosion of pro-terrorist activism on American college campuses— can be linked, in some way, shape, or form to Cuban influence.”

The report doesn’t just hand-wave. It names names. It details how the Venceremos Brigade and other “revolutionary tourism” programs have funneled thousands of American activists to Havana for ideological (and sometimes literal) weapons training.

The Venceremos Brigade has brought 10,000 American activists to Cuba since 1969. This is because nothing says “I am fighting for the oppressed working class” quite ...

This guy says it all I fear….

Now there is a plan! Of course dumb Canadians will not have the courage to vote with their brains, instead of their propagandized feelings of fear.

Canada’s economy is stalling badly.

We just endured the worst decade for real GDP growth per person since the Great Depression.

Over the past ten years, real GDP per capita limped along at an average of just 0.6% annually.

And Bloomberg’s consensus forecast for 2026? A paltry 0.7%.

Why does GDP matter?

Because family disposable income follows GDP like a shadow. Anemic economic growth resulting from lower investment means stagnant wages. Period.

The Liberals and fake Conservatives won't fix this.

The People's Party has a comprehensive plan to unleash private investment, supercharge productivity, and put more money back into your pocket:

Make the Accelerated Capital Cost Allowance (ACCA) permanent – Let businesses write off capital investments rapidly and skyrocket cash flow.
End Corporate Welfare – Zero subsidies. Zero bailouts. Zero regional ...
