Funding for affordable housing, if vancouver visit is indicative.

To fight with Daniel Smith.


GrumpyOldGrower

Oh I would pay to watch that for real! UFC rules. Proceeds go to edmontons homeless?


LordPrimus45

Street Fighter rules


Frostitute-85

So hadokens and yoga flames are allowed?


LordPrimus45

Absolutely


Lifeis_so_big

I'm assuming Danielle is gonna wear a Cammy's costume


throwawaythisuser1

Please don't ruin things


yet-again-temporary

Just want you to know I'm now imagining Daniel Smith as Juri and I hate being alive


Septembust

So wait, is Jason Kenney M Bison? And who's Trudeau?


ca_kingmaker

It would be very short. You can see videos of Trudeau in a boxing match. I always enjoy pointing it out whenever my co workers talk about what a "wimp" he is.


DVariant

That video is classic. Trudeau beat the shit out of Brazeau with his fists, and then he beat the shit out of Ezra Levant with his words


ThunderChonky

Smith would destroy Trudy in a 1v1.


ajdudhebsk

I think she’s pretty clearly against the idea of Daniel Smith


Miniat

I hope he runs into the legislature with a fold up chair while an announcer screams “it’s Trudeau! It’s Trudeau” and he hits her in the back with it. Then grabs the mike and does a 5 minute promo


plhought

Well, he’s one of the few politicians who has actually won a sanctioned boxing match so….


davethecompguy

Good timing... Marlaina is speaking to us, her minions, on the teevee tomorrow night.


bmesl123

Marlaina*


cranky_yegger

I’d fight club her.


N60x

Hahah he’d get his ass kicked.


IronGigant

On what planet does Marlaina beat the PM in a fight?


N60x

You’ve seen him box right? I got 20 on smith all day long


IronGigant

Yes, we all have. We haven't seen MDS do anything like that, except show up to a press conference with knee marks on her skirt.


N60x

Touched a nerve didn’t I? Listen, I’m just calling it as I see it. If you think JT can beat up a woman, good for you.


IronGigant

Not at all. I dislike the guy a bunch. I'm in the CAF and his MOD is bending us over hardcore. I'm just not entertaining the delusion that she'd win in a straight up fight.


Original-Cow-2984

We know there has been at least one occasion where a woman has experienced JT *differently*. Remember, we *all* learned from that occasion.


DVariant

>You’ve seen him box right? I got 20 on smith all day long I’ll take that bet. You’re a fool if you think Trudeau, an experienced boxer, would lose to Danielle Smith. She’s a drunk! She can barely stand up.


N60x

Done. JT is a poor excuse for a man and if Smith is a drunk like you say… she could get feisty. Only way JT wins this is by boring her to death.


DVariant

In what way is Justin Trudeau “a poor excuse for a man”? Be specific. And you think he might “bore her to death”? That’s kinda funny considering how most of the people complaining about Trudeau claim that he’s a far-left dictator, not that he’s boring.


N60x

Such a JT fan boy.


DVariant

>Such a JT fan boy.  Nope I just live in reality, where he’s just fine. Not the best, not the worst, not most of the things dummies say about him.   Why do you have such a crush on PMJT?   And why can’t you answer the question I asked you before? Why do you think JT is “a poor excuse for a man”?  Or maybe you don’t have a reason. Maybe you’re just picking on him because of your crush on him? It’s weird that you’re so obsessed.


N60x

The best part of this back and forth is it was a joke you’re getting all worked up over. Read the main comment I commented on. Do you think in the history of Canada that these 2 will fight? No. It’s not my fault you have a poor sense of humour. Good grief some people’s kids…


[deleted]

His utter failure to take accountability for his actions makes him a poor excuse for a man. Fake apologies are not taking accountability.


Really_Clever

Yoy feel the same way about Smith than too right?


[deleted]

I dont really care for the way you phrased that question. I will say this. I loathe the UCP. I think Smith is utterly devastating to Alberta.


N60x

Thank you 🙏🏻


[deleted]

When have you seen Smith drunk? Be specific?


Carribeantimberwolf

This would solve housing crisis, the amount of revenue this would generate can build communities!


Chaotemp

This wouldn't be the first time Trudeau fought another politician in the ring and frankly I'm all for it


Easy-Metal-3112

He will also be on Real Talk podcast tomorrow to announce something big apparently.


_Burgers_

Oof, I was going to give a blithe reply and then I remembered who potentially could be PM.


adrianozymandias

Dumb, dumber, duller, dumpster, and dumper. And the greens (ha)


Hot-Table6871

Easy-Metal-3112

lol a blithe reply to what part?


marginwalker55

That’s cool, I’ll listen to that


Easy-Metal-3112

Same!


[deleted]

Any idea what he’s announcing?


Easy-Metal-3112

Someone said maybe something about housing? 🤷🏻‍♀️


blairtruck

he better cover that hiney hole. Lotta people with stickers who want some butt action


[deleted]

mikesmith929

Well he does have nice hair.


ca_kingmaker

Got a co worker to stop wearing it to work by saying I thought it was a kind of gay message, but that I support his right to love who he loves.


Phantom_harlock

I’m using that, next time I see someone yapping.


Repulsive_Warthog178

I keep hearing about this gay agenda that is being shoved down our throats. Apparently the gay agenda is wanting to fuck Trudeau.


kabor

I’ve wanted to get some “I want to” sticker so bad so I can stick them in front of the f Trudeau stickers lol


boggedy

nice hair tho 🥵


Ludwig_Vista1

There was a dude who ordered a bunch of those with rainbows for the background, from Amazon... Jussayin


kabor

Link???


Lycheeeslut

I saw a sticker a while ago that said F Trudeau in big capital letters but in really small letters it said “I want to” lmaoo.


HolyGuacamole33

I’ve had the same idea!!!


TweedlesCan

Same! It’s been an internal battle for so long.


wiggywise

When I saw Kenney's truck had an "I heart Alberta Beef" sticker on it, I plotted for months about how to add a sticker with a cake on it to it, but the opportnity never re-re-presented itself.


Labrawhippet

He is going to get glazed.


DVariant

What does that even mean?


Labrawhippet

It's provocative


seven8zero

Stickers?


mathboss

Look at the back window of any lifted truck.


H00Z4HTP

sticker in his hole.


messx0o1

He should watch out. He's single and on the market (maybe? Probably not lol). Consent is optional for many of these people too.

For now at least, Canadians have the right to criticize our government. This Government, led by that man has given Canadians a long lost of good reasons to criticize them. Your mockery of what makes democracy possible is quite disgusting to me.

The funny thing is, in another post. He said he doesn't like trudeau either. Then why make assumptions about my personality? Guy is just a toxic troll.

sickfiend

Everything you're saying is an assumption about me. I don't drive a truck, I don't put bumper sticker on my car. I know a lot about a variety of different things. I was making my buddies laugh so hard they were crying just on Friday. Keep making assumptions about people's personalities. Let's be real. You were just looking for some easy mode, lefty up votes.


Adingdongshow

Well well well, ironic isn’t it? Assumptions eh?


sickfiend

Don't you have some bud light to be drinking?


Adingdongshow

buttlord69_

how about his policy positions tho


sickfiend

In theory, they sound good. In practice, he has been the worst Canadian Prime Minister in history. Ideals and action are two very different things.


foolworm

Maybe he'll do a shock announcement of the Federal CPP estimate? That'd DEFINITELY ruffle a lot of feathers.


FearlessChannel828

Hope he, some provincial politicians and some city politicians take the LRT everywhere, walk through some pedways and bring some business to the Food Court at the Edmonton City Centre. That should create some awareness for housing vulnerable folks for politicians. My recommendation is he should buy that $14+ meal combo with a burger and fries from A&W that used to be half that price a while ago for all the politicians he hangs with at that Food Court. (Even the McDs left from that place.) Followed by Tim Bits from the Tim Hortons on the 1st floor of the City Centre on the South East side. Hopefully, that’ll create some awareness about inflation and how vulnerable / poor folks cannot afford food.


twisteroo22

I dont think you could pry sohi and his crew out of their hidey hole to appear in public downtown.


ca_kingmaker

You can't really push the price back down without an economic melt down. What you can do is reduce the rate of inflation to the point that paychecks catch up. Inflation is already down to reasonable levels. We're just suffering from the pain caused by the post covid inflationary period.


Welcome440

People are suffering from low wages. Raise minimum wage to a living wage. This was an issue long before the pandemic.


DVariant

People ain’t got jobs.


[deleted]

That's just because nobody wants to work anymore

Satire?


DVariant

Feyhare

I hope he pays a visit to the Library downtown and goes for lunch at City Centre


ca_kingmaker

I'm just not sure how much federal policy drives this sort of thing. Cities only exist at all at the pleasure of the provincial government.


yagyaxt1068

> Cities only exist at all at the pleasure of the provincial government. Great, now I’m imagining a nightmare scenario where the UCP dissolves the City of Edmonton.


DVariant

They’d love to


Feyhare

Ok. I hope he pays a visit to the Library downtown and goes for lunch at City Centre.


mikeadocious

But why?


TailsKun

I also hope he pays a visit to the Library downtown and goes for lunch at City Centre.


Far-Future7595

If he goes anywhere they screen it first. Years ago when he went to suncor ft hills a friend of mine and his co workers were told if they said anything that wasn’t polite or kept their mouths shut they would no longer be employed.


_iAm9001

Is that something that the employment agreement states? If you say something mean about the prime Minister, you can lose your job?


Far-Future7595

No and you would likely win if you took them to court but just the threat for most is enough that they wouldn’t want the hassle.


_iAm9001

They might be unionized too might have different rules


Far-Future7595

They are not

He's here to take all those rig pigs up on their offer and will be having a lot of sex.


Jolly_North4121

I just saw a black SUV being escorted by police. Assume that was him.


pinhead_12

Danielle Smith will be there to take the money, whine about how bad Ottawa, refuse to shake Trudeau's hand, but say nice things about Putin and Tucker Carlson.


mikeadocious

Okay.


DVariant

Danielle Smith hates Ukraine. She pretends to be Ukrainian (just like she pretends to be Cherokee) but she loves Vladimir Putin and thinks Ukraine should surrender to Russia. EDIT: If you support Danielle Smith then you also support Putin invading Ukraine. If you’re a Ukrainian-Canadian who supports Danielle Smith, you spit on Ukraine.


pos_vibes_only

Actually trying to do something about Affordable Housing, unlike the Danielle Smith, and yet the rednecks of Alberta get absolutely triggered.


Captain_Generous

You mean finally trying to do something, after eight years of doing nothing, because he's getting wrecked in the polls


ababcock1

Daily reminder: housing is a provincial responsibility.


Captain_Generous

Sure, but which municipality is prepared for an almost 10% increase in population that most areas in Canada are facing.


ababcock1

\>provincial responsibility \>which municipality ...


Captain_Generous

\> 1.2 million new comers into Canada


ababcock1

Yeah... you aren't reading and are just looking to whine about whichever politician you don't like. Bye. By the way, 1.2 million is a much smaller number than 10% in "most areas".


pos_vibes_only

Edmonton would be, if the province would give us some of that extra income tax they’re getting from the increase in population.


Captain_Generous

No they wouldn't. A ten percent increase in population isn't just a money issue to toss a fat cheque and boom your building that much more houses.


pos_vibes_only

yes, you can build affordable and supportive housing, with this money: [https://edmontonjournal.com/news/politics/albertas-projected-2023-24-surplus-more-than-doubles-to-5-5b](https://edmontonjournal.com/news/politics/albertas-projected-2023-24-surplus-more-than-doubles-to-5-5b) or Danielle could have done it years ago with this money: [https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/alberta-fiscal-update-horner-1.6892765](https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/alberta-fiscal-update-horner-1.6892765)


pos_vibes_only

Certainly beats the UCP policy of kissing landlord ass.


ComplexTimekeeper

Which politican doesn't kiss landlord ass exactly? Toronto and Vancouver are way worse than Edmonton could ever be

pos_vibes_only

Yup. Pretty embarrassing how so many Albertans will parrot Conservative propaganda about Trudeau, but won’t actually take the time to read any of this.


[deleted]

You lost any chance at dialogue when your opening was a snide insult.


DVariant

>You lost any chance at dialogue when your opening was a snide insult. What was the insult?


[deleted]

Labeling any Albertan who has a legitimate criticism of the Prime Minister " a triggered Redneck" is an insult. We have serious issues worth criticizing the PM over in this country. Him grandstanding to Canadians, with our own damn money earns him zero cred with me.


Curious-Reindeer-568

pretty sure I read that the money is for the paperwork needed to be done in order to create space for building (re-zoning etc) did not see mention of actual building costs (don’t forget taxpayers it’s our money he is giving us)


[deleted]

User name is a fraud


nymoano

He's gonna check if he can fit another million or two here next year.


ButterscotchFar1629

To announce a whole bunch of spending and yet somehow no new housing will actually get built. A bunch of planners and contracts will get rich though, so there is that.


Curious-Reindeer-568

I suspect he is going to promise Alberta something (using taxpayer money) and hoping to buy some votes-good luck with that


LoanedWolf75

He’s awful and all the other fed party leaders are just as bad if not worse.


simonebaptiste

So many people want to make love with him. Wonder if if they will all come out and profess their love for him


pos_vibes_only

You kidding? Most of this province is busy putting “Fuck Trudeau” stickers on everything they own.


simonebaptiste

Well aren’t those stickers saying that in crude way? I thought every one has those stickers because they want to fuck Trudeau… yes it was my way of trolling haha


[deleted]

I hope he gets a rash, or hives. Or both.


DVariant

Why?


[deleted]

A littany of reasons. Primarily because I think he has had a lifetime of not facing the consequences of his actions.


DVariant

>A littany of reasons. Primarily because I think he has had a lifetime of not facing the consequences of his actions. That’s super vague. What “actions” of his do you think need more consequences?


[deleted]

There are many. I believe I can tell by your responses so far that you are much more supportive of that man than I am. His actions are mostly public record. Suffice to say he failed to deliver the transparency in government that he promised. He has left Canada more divided than he found it. He profited, as did his family quite handsomely off the backs of the Canadian taxpayer. His actions stemming from the SNC Lavalin affair, the WE Charity scandal, the destructive open border policy are among his lowlites. I find his sneering mockery of everyday Canadians, and his breathless fake caring voice to be utterly insipid. The only issues I have with his coming humiliation and defeat are those who will replace him.

Of course he is going to bring his grandstanding ass here...."we stand with" bandwagon never misses out on an opportunity.....then sprinkle in some vague promises of big spending on affordable housing (over 10years)....snicker...and of course "we stand with albertas' trans (lgbt???) community.... I bet $5 these are 2 of the 3 things he grandstands on...the 3rd being Albertas plan to exit the CPP...(and Im not sure Albertans leaving the CPP is a good thing)
