Pretty much all of the former USSR countries in Eastern Europe and even some of the Stans are embracing strong policies (i.e. the government is getting the F out of the way to let people pursue their dreams).

US is eating Canada and Europe for lunch economically, though they're no longer the empire they once were.

Hell, even Argentina just had a budget surplus. It's still a basket case but I honestly think if Milei is given enough time things will be markedly better there.

On another note, Freakanomics did a podcast with Trudeau. I've tried listening to it twice but give up after hearing Trudeau throw out bullshit political lies a few times I realize I'm just wasting my time. Though, I would like to know if Dubner ever pushes back or calls him out on it (the title "A Social Activist in Prime Minister's Clothing" makes me think he might, which is why I wanted to listen to it in the first place.

I might've said this already in posts recently past. But I find it hilarious that Trudeaus team sees the immense success that Poilievre is having by going on podcasts and reaching a lot more people than legacy media appearances. So they decide to copy the strategy by getting Trudeau out there to do long form media. But somehow without realizing that PP is having success because people are seeing his sound and logical policy proposals, not just because of the sheer number of voters that get exposed to him. And they didn't notice that Trudeau gets slaughtered by the press in every short form press event he does with hand selected press and screened questions. Now he is just getting inevitably wrecked at these long form podcasts by hand selected hosts lobbing him soft ball questions. Can you imagine if this retard tried to go on Rogan or Peterson? I love watching his support crater every time Canadians hear or see more of him.

[mr2mike]

I'd vote he goes on Peterson's podcast. Epic.

Apparently he's been a train wreck in these podcasts - even admitting that what he's done hasn't been working and just generally being incoherent.

It's well known he is very un-intelligent and is utterly useless when he doesn't have vetted questions and a script to read.

The Liberals are working on a succession plan, they know Trudeau is done.

Yeah, the behind the scenes at the Liberal party must be funny

I actually hope Mark Carney gets a run at it. Out of all the Liberals I can see being leader, he's the least retarded.

[ExtraSlow]

I posted some unoriginal thoughts about Mr Carney a long time ago. He's going to be more effective and pragmatic at achieving his goals. Remains to be seen if the goals themselves are retarded.

Carney? I'm not sure if a smart Laurentian elite is better than a dumb one.

Even Tom Muclair is ripping them over the capital gains tax lol

Carney would double down on all the worst aspects of the Trudeau government.

Pass

Carney still thinks that climate change is the biggest existential crisis of our time.

Still... name a Liberal who is less retarded.

Edit: And not saying I believe everything he says, but I truly don't think he'd double down on the excessive deficit spending.

[Carney] made some subtle digs at large deficit spending under the current Liberal government, saying that governments that “spend too much and invest too little will eventually pay a heavy price” while countries that “welcome and celebrate risk-takers will thrive.”The federal budget, which forecasts a deficit of nearly $40 billion this year, has been under fire for its increase in capital gains taxation, which will affect individuals who make large profits by selling a second property, or corporations selling any of their assets.
Business groups have argued that the tax hike will stifle innovation and drive away entrepreneurship in Canada.
Carney insisted that the new economic era Canada finds itself in will “demand fiscal discipline and a relentless focus on delivery, rather than reflex spending that only treats the symptom but doesn’t cure the disease.”

Oh Carney isn't retarded. Trudeau is retarded. Carney is in many ways worse... He will use the fact that Canadians are retarded much more effectively.

Do you honestly think he'd run as high of deficits and allow for so much money to vanish into thin air as Turdy and Tia? I can't see a genuine finance guy doing that, even if he does funnel a few tens of millions to his cronies.

Sean Fraser on the other hand will make Zimbabweans blush.

Do you think Trudy and Chrystia are making the spending decisions?
They're all puppets.

All the puppet masters are the same, we just need to vote in the least damaging.

[ThePenIsMightier]

You're worried about the levels of retardation? Canada would proudly elect an MP with Down's Syndrome now that Spain has broken through that barrier and is no doubt enjoying the many many fruits of their courageous and inclusive decision.

We won't let some greasy Spaniards try to out-inclusive us.
We are the inclusivest and we'll commission a space program to install a tampon dispenser in the Men's Room on Mir or change the anthem lyrics again if that's what it takes.

[suntan]

We sure people with Down's are more retarded than our current politicians?
