  • A real man of the people. Remember that he wanted to cut taxes on the wealthy, but services for the rest of us to pay for it, and run up an extra $100 billion of debt over the next four years.

  • He's been in parliament his whole career. He's never had a real job. He gets an MP's pension.

  • Carney is the kind of person that Trump has always tried to impress. Polievre is the kind of person and Trump has always turned into a sniveling sycophant. We're better off with Carney.

  • He will get a $20,000 per month for life pension, unless he renounces suckling at the teat of the public purse and gets a real job.

    So, he will get a $20,000 per month for life pension.

  • My daughter is 20 and in her second year of university. She came home to vote in the provincial election and she just voted in the federal election. If you raise your kids right and teach them how important voting is they will vote. She's very politically engaged.

  • Fucking sleepy Joe, amiright?

  • No, I agree. A good, hard kick to the face with my steel toed boots, then ask questions.

  • To be a tertorist act it needs to be intended to cause terror. If the guy was having a psychotic episode and didn't know what he was doing it would not be terrorism.

  • I'm a 58 year old man and I will never vote for a party whose members want to take away a woman's right to choose, to take away everyone's right to love who they want, to marry who they want, and to identify how they want. I will never vote for a party that has nothing but grievance and hate as the core of their message.

    Canada deserves better.

  • How will cutting taxes for the wealthy, cutting services for everyone else, running four years of deficits, and adding $100 billion to the national debt not solve the housing crisis? I just don't understand.

  • Polievre and the maple MAGA can choke on a horse dick.

  • He should waive his $20,000 per months for life pension and get a real job.

  • Everyone can relax. Polievre will enjoy a $20,000 per month for life pension at taxpayers expense, unless he waives the pension and gets a real job.

  • The article says that they don't consider it an act of terrorism. Unless the guy was so drunk that he had no idea what was happening how was it not an act of terrorism?

    EDIT: More reading and someone says he appeared to have mental health issues.

    Poilievre to release platform Tuesday with details on new spending and cuts

    Tax cuts for the rich and benefits cuts for the poor to pay for it. $100 billion of additional national debt over four years of planned deficits.

    That definitely sounds like a Conservative agenda.

    'I don't blame you': U.S. tourism hot spots mourn Canadian travel cancellations

    "I know why, and it's because my president is threatening to annex your country."

    It's far more than that. The Trump administration is lawless, ignoring and defying the courts, and trampling on the constitution. My son's school just cancelled a long planned trip to New York City because of the very real risk that one of more of the children in the trip might be held, handcuffed, and thrown in ICE detention for days or weeks. Under the current authoritarian regime it is unsafe for anyone to travel to the US.

    Poilievre unveils ‘three strikes and you’re out’ crime plan. Will it work?

    Oh, we're going to do this again? We're going to try to pass the same unconditional laws that Stephen Harper tried to pass then spent years and tens of millions of dollars defending all the way to the Supreme Court only to lose because everyone, including Harper, knew from the very beginning that they were unconstitutional?

    Just fucking great. Can we not? Can you just roll your neo-fascist lack-of-virtue signalling into a cylinder and shove it up your fucking at instead?

    "I'm not Justin Trudeau!" - Pierre Polievre

    "Neither am I" - Mark Carney

    The 25% of Canadians that are thinking challenged won't win you an election when there's is a functioning adult running.

    "I'm just like Trump" won't either.

    Maxime Bernier decries 'woke ideology' at campaign stop in Dartmouth

    I know you're a fucking idiot the moment you use the phrase, "woke ideology", unironically.

    Bernier is a fucking idiot.

    Poilievre launches his campaign promising to be "respectful and firm" against Trump

    They changed the headline on this article. It originally read, "Polievre launches campaign with a pitch to heal, 'a divided country'" which made me laugh because he's spent so much time whipping up the white grievance that carried Trump to power in the US and trying desperately to ride the same wave of populist bullshit with the same message as Trump. When he's railing about the, "woke" and "political correctness" that suggests that we can expect an all out assault of LGBTQ+ rights, brown people, books, and anything else they don't like.

    Soldering @lemmy.ca
    Maple Engineer @lemmy.world

    An epic bodge. Adding as 74HC7014D non-inverting Schmitt trigger to an HMI board.

    I soldered the Schmitt trigger onto a BoB then bodged it onto the HMI board using 0.3mm bodge wire. The controller is an ESP32 and I was having trouble with the hardware interrupts because the RC debounce I was using was too slow. The Schmitt trigger gives me a nice, square signal which the controller interprets properly. The chip cost me a couple of bucks from Digikey.

    Here's the best RC trace I could get.

    and here's the trace with the Schmitt trigger (same scope settings.)

    We realize that most Americans didn't vote for Trump (only 49.8%) and that most of those who did probably didn't understand what tariffs are and how they work and we realize that Trump's action and our response are going to hurt poor Americans, and poor Americans in red states more than others, but we're not going to take illegal tariffs sitting down.

    Just a reminder who Trump is pissing off.

    Is the"war on Christmas" in the room with us right now? “Amy Hamm: Canadians are killing Christmas. Let's restore it“

    Seriously? There are Christmas lights and nativity scenes all over the place. Christmas decreasing and Christmas trees. Fucking Mariah Carey.

    These right wing propagandist pearl clutching concern ttrolls are a fucking scourge on Canadian society.
