        A Keynesian economist would be getting the government to employ more people. Carney is firing civil servants by the tens of thousands and eroding the social supports that keep more people from falling through the cracks. I would take nearly anyone over Mark Carney

      I think we’re doing pretty good still considering the most powerful country in the world has been attacking our country’s economy relentlessly for a year and a half and still it’s only a technical recession.

      I thought electing the bank guy was supposedly less worse than electing the demagogue; which still seems to be the case considering what’s happening down south when they failed to do so.

        I hate that this election was just a choice between 2 different flavours of conservative. I guess cherry conservative is slightly better than blu razzberry conservative.

          Me too, but unfortunately it just gets worse and worse as both flavours of conservative have little incentives to implement proportional representation, ranked ballots etc
