The Green Party was not authorized to participate in French or English debates. Apparently, they did not meet the requirement of having candidates in a percentage of constituencies across Canada. Why does the Quebec block participate? A provincial political party in Quebec “acting” as a federal party. The criteria to attend the debate are that the party must meet two of the following criteria: 1) representing in the House of Commons, the Bloc A 33; (2) national support of at least 4%; (3) candidates in at least 90% of federal constituencies. The Canadian dirt on which I am, the block only meets one of the criteria, which is the first listed above.

Thank you for TMX
The Federal Federal Government of Justin Trudeau's investment in the TMX pipeline turned out to be a financial boon for Alberta. The pipeline cost around $ 50 billion paid by Canadian taxpayers, 90% who do not live in Alberta. The capacity of the tripled pipeline and the costs collected will never be paid by the tolls invoiced to move the oil from Alberta to Tidewater. Instead, Canadian taxpayers, residents of the other nine provinces will be high. Thank you, Canada, from an Albertain.

Vote wisely
Mark Carney managed to convince many Canada's most urgent Canadians, President Trump and his pricing threats. Canadians have real immediate concerns such as inactiveability, high inflation, significant national debt with interest payments that cost the treasury more than the amount distributed to the provinces in the form of health care transfers and with the collapse of the public health care system. If Trudeau had allowed us to develop our resources, we would be in a much better position to resist Trump's prices. If you want more liberal mismanagement, certainly vote for Mark Carney. If you really want change, the Conservatives offer us our best hope. Use your vote wisely.

Like the crime? Votes liberal
Jewelry stores stolen in the middle of the day with hammers in children's full shopping centers. The cars are stolen from the aisles or even a car. People shot the streets by wandering bullets. And if the criminals are captured, they are on deposit the next day! Emergency rooms are overcrowded and people die because the necessary medical care is not provided. The only advantage that Canada has abundant natural resources that the rest of the world needs a lot, but which are kept in the ground. Immigration outside control has created cities of tents and overcrowded houses. So if your voters are satisfied with this and ready to make things worse, vote liberal. I don't understand why only one person would.
