Economy 52,861 Posted August 22, 2023 Author Share Posted August 22, 2023 Not that 80% of people dont do this on the highway anyway when traffic levels allow but given the standards public figures are held to, i wouldnt be surprised if this hurt the Liberals on the polls further tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Economy 52,861 Posted August 23, 2023 Author Share Posted August 23, 2023 1 hour ago, bionic said: She should resign I disagree. Even tho some of the Liberals decisions, priorities and amount of money spent can be questionable and not luked by everyone (including myself) on the overall balance i still think she and Prime Minister are doing a decent enough job.... Could be better, but frankly the 2 main alternatives, the Conservatives led by Pouivre and the Left Socialists (NDP) left by Jagmeet singh are worse options. Id rather things stay as they are Also if we asked someone to resign every time they did a common f*ck up like speeding like everyone in politics would need to resign... Like they are human too and make mistakes and arent perfect. The standards we set for them dont need to be THAT high. She apologized and payed her ticked. Im satisfied with that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
