@ShirleyStockar2 @SueAnnLevy @ikwilson Yup, for both sidewalks and bike lanes. But by all means do the bike lanes first in case one entitled retard is riding his bike today.

@K9Dgk @CDHreallifing @brianlilley Ok moron.

@Polymarket Not if your are outside of the USA it seems.

@khaighle @maple_patriot @TWilsonOttawa You have repeatedly outed yourself as retarded.

We did not inherit the UKs system, but ours is based on it. So don't copy word for word the UK system unless you are a retard. In Canada, the Prime Minister is traditionally a Member of Parliament (MP), but it is not a constitutional requirement. Here's how it works: Convention: By convention, the Prime Minister is almost always an MP because the Prime Minister leads the government in the House of Commons, where they need to be able to participate in debates, answer questions, and generally be accountable to Parliament. Legal Framework: The Constitution Act, 1867, does not explicitly state that the Prime Minister must be an MP. Section 11 of the Act mentions that the Governor General appoints the Prime Minister, but it does not specify the qualifications beyond being appointed by the Governor General, who acts on the advice of the current government or the leader of the party with the most seats after an election. Practicality: If the Prime Minister were not an MP, they would not have a direct seat in the House of Commons. This could create significant practical and political challenges. However, they could be appointed to the Senate or resign and run for a seat in a by-election, which has happened in some Commonwealth countries under similar systems. Historical Precedent: There has never been a Canadian Prime Minister who was not an MP at the time of taking office. However, in 1984, John Turner became Prime Minister after Pierre Trudeau's retirement, and although he was not initially elected as an MP in the subsequent election, he won a by-election shortly thereafter. Therefore, while it's not legally necessary for the Canadian PM to be an MP, it's practically and politically almost indispensable. If someone were appointed PM without being an MP, they would likely need to secure a seat in the House of Commons quickly to maintain legitimacy and functionality in their role.

@Geiger_Capital This is why DOGE is so important. The change is all due to spending being totally out of control. Damn lucky the USA has a new leader as of Jan 20.

Lol. They still need to spend the money to extract the crude. The crude doesn't become "free" all of a sudden. All it means is they pay for it using USD, and it doesn't count as a product being "imported". There are many positives for Canadians to becoming the 51st state, especially given we are dependant on the US as customers of our resources.

@khaighle @maple_patriot @TWilsonOttawa Too bad it is not history yet. Also they did not label them as Historians With TDS, so it is a bit misleading.

@Tim_Pettit_ @MichelleRempel @CanadianPM @liberal_party We are not in the UK, Tim, so try researching Canada.

@spikestabber @MichelleRempel Given his record as governor of the @bankofengland I would think he would want to keep that quiet.

@Tim_Pettit_ @MichelleRempel No, he becomes @CanadianPM immediately on winning the @liberal_party leadership vote. He can be PM without being a member of parliament.

@MichelleRempel @dkreative1 @MarkJCarney would be @CanadianPM immediately following the leadership vote (if he wins) so he would be the one to dissolve parliament. He does not need to tell @JustinTrudeau to do it unless he wants dissolution immediately before the vote.

@CFIB Well duh. They got the expense deduction when they paid the carbon tax so of course any rebate is taxable.

@CDHreallifing @brianlilley Blah blah blah. Tell us something we don't know. Canada has always been a NATO laggard, since Trudeau Sr, along with many other NATO members. Still, there are many member nations regardless of who pays what, so it doesn't change the point I made.

@VinceAn82595385 @brianlilley He improved on the agreement in 2017 and wants to improve some more. End of Story

@MountainDogMa @brianlilley Bahahaha. You don't actually think @JustinTrudeau even knows. He thinks budgets balance themselves FFS. Trust fund PO💩 has no Fn clue.

@CDHreallifing @brianlilley No, the USA is not defending Canada. We are a part of NATO. He is talking about the trade deficit. The USA does not defend Canada. If they did we wouldn't have the Chinese controlling our government.

@gevansv1 @brianlilley Why would you bother. Their costs are to protect themselves, Canada just happens to be a convenient buffer zone for them.

@Rod00303861 @brianlilley Totally! It would secure our resources for the USA. Also probably @DonaldJTrump likely not happy about China's current influence over Canada's @liberal_party @NDP government.
