It doesn't matter that the rest of the economies around the globe are performing MUCH better, in particular the U.S. From the article. The above evidence indicates a fundamental change in the Canadian economy in the last two years. Investors in Canadian equities originally gave the benefit of the doubt to the Trudeau government, but as reality about federal Liberal economic policies started to set in, the Canadian stock market started to severely underperform the U.S. equivalent. Maybe Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is a nice guy, while the guy south of the border is not. But this is not and should not be a competition of who is nicer. It is about who is a better steward and manager of the economy. While U.S. President Donald Trump has poor and declining poll numbers on whether he is a nice guy, his numbers on how well he manages the economy are high and have been improving. When Trump took office, 46 per cent of Americans polled said they had a positive impression of the state of the economy; in recent months the number has risen to 66 per cent according to a Quinnipiac University survey. Economists surveyed by The Wall Street Journal agree. Unlike Trump, Trudeau is a progressive prime minister who believes that corporations must be benevolent organizations that put workers before shareholders. He favours taxing corporations and the rich, and adding regulatory impediments and red tape to corporate activity. He is a big supporter of income redistribution as opposed to making the pie bigger for everyone. He wants to regulate the economy and nudge corporations to submit to his social views and economic philosophy. Everyone knows that the secret to corporate success is really very simple. Let the budgets balance themselves and the more women you have in your business the more profitable it will be. Every CEO should be required to wear yellow and blue duck socks... it makes a difference. How many investors did he manage to attract to Canada with his visit to Davos? I'd wager none.

I am going to bet the USA will be entering a recession very soon, maybe even more crippling than 2008 one. But you won't see this in Canada. Once all the Rich have their money just like clock work the economy will shut down, even more money being made by the top. And just like Under King Harper Canada will pull out of it just fine. Never knew you were for doubling the deficit by 1/2 trillion dollars and giving it to the extreme wealthy was a good thing - Pretty sure you were against any tax cut that helped the finance Minister out the doom and gloom is coming to the USA soon Edited February 4, 2018 by 1trailmaker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These recessions come and go like clock work, no one knows why it happens. If we knew it could be stopped. When it hits hard this time, you tell me why it happened AGAIN and who made money off it. Thinking giving a massive tax break to the extreme wealthy will stop a recession is simpleton thinking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how his father feels about JT being PM, but I know before the elction his father said Jr didn't have the smarts to do anything. My friend said he couldn't believe Morneau forgot about his villa in France Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
