irv Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Stocks are reaching records in Canada. The economy not so much. Canada’s economic outlook isn’t exactly flashing green but you wouldn’t know it by looking at the stock market, fresh off Wednesday’s record high. The Bank of Canada has begun to consider lowering borrowing costs as growth starts to sputter and corporate profits come in below expectations The nation’s economy is nowhere near peak growth. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg expect the economy to decelerate to a yearly pace of 1.5 per cent in 2019 and 2020, in line with expectations for slower global growth. The Bank of Canada has also revised down its forecast for Canada GDP in 2020. https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/stocks-are-reaching-records-in-canada-the-economy-not-so-much-1.1348031 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irv Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 The numbers show our green obsession is hurting Canada The latest numbers on economic productivity in Canada are extremely disappointing. And with the Liberals back in power, the numbers are about to get worse, especially considering that the Trudeau government is now held in office by three anti-development parties — the NDP, Greens and Bloc Quebecois. Perhaps more concerning, though, is the plight of Ontario. Once the economic engine of the country and home to 40% of our national population, Ontario’s annual, per capita GDP is just $48,000 US. That’s only $1,000 better than Kentucky and just 12% above West Virginia — coal-mining, mountain-people West Virginia! This is largely the result of the Liberals “green” obsession — first in Ontario under premiers McGuinty and Wynne and now federally under Justin Trudeau. This should surprise no one since many of the same people who thought up Ontario’s “green” energy strategy are now devising federal policy. And it matters far less to these eco-zealots what happens to people’s jobs and standard of living than making expensive, symbolic, useless environmental gestures. For instance, Ontario Liberal policies gave that province the highest electricity costs on the continent, which contributed to the loss of 200,000 manufacturing jobs in the past 15 years. That should make the architects of Ontario’s “green” energy policies contrite and apologetic. Instead, they are now trying to duplicate their disaster on a national scale. Instead of trying to revive our economy with more pipelines and manufacturing plants, attracted by loosened regulations and lower taxes, the Liberals in Ottawa are giving every indication of going the opposite direction — more “green” impediments to growth, plus even higher taxes and bigger deficits. And the decline of our energy sector is not geological, it’s political. The oil is there. We know how to extract it. Yet, thanks to our “green” federal government, there is inadequate ability to get that oil to market, so investors now see Canada as one of the least reliable places to put their money. https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnists/gunter-the-numbers-show-our-green-obsession-is-hurting-canada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Hydro reates alone - people need to blame someone in this case Wynne... Doug is a master at manipulation and lies, such as 15 billion deficits and other lies really played a role in getting Wynne beaten so badly.. Are you trying to argue the economy wasn't good? right now its the best ever according to Doug and nothing has changed except more unemployed Rare to be in power as long as Wynne was, usually 10 years is tops like with Harper Good Chance Doug is gone next election and so will Trudeau - giving opposite governments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No mention of the massive debt, cuts everywhere and driving businesses out of Ontario, among other things??? Keep reading the T.O. Star, Trail.

Once our debt reaches 400 billion in the next few years, will it matter too you? I doubt it and you like all others here vote PC no matter what...... Blame wynne and vote ONEWAY... When the debt reaches 500 billion you again will vote for PC - it doesn't matter IRV Right now DOUG hasn't brought the deficit down 1 cent - he got caught lying and his own Minister pointed it out - The deficit is growing under FORD and you are all giddy abbout it.

irv Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Give it up, Trail. Your constant deflecting from the topic and your blind admiration for the Liberals is sickening. And you call other's one ways on here. Seek help, somethings not right up stairs. Dunning-Kruger Effect: Why People Think They’re Smart Even When They’re Not The Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which people believe that they are smarter and more capable than they really are. Essentially, low ability people do not possess the skills needed to recognize their own incompetence. The combination of poor self-awareness and low cognitive ability leads them to overestimate their own capabilities Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
