Prime minister Justin Trudeau's Liberal government has left $372 million meant for veterans unspent since taking office. That's despite hammering the Conservatives for leaving money meant for vets unspent when they were in power.

    They left unspent more than $1 billion that Parliament allocated for veteran support. Canadians know that this is wrong. A government led by me would make it right.
    ROTFL

    Other than legalizing marijuana is there one promise this clown made that he's kept? He and the oligarchs in the Supreme Court of Canada seem to have a special affinity for fucking over veterans.

    If you're actually serious about finding out, this site tracks all the promises he made.

    You're absolutely right. He has kept some of his promises but I still have some concerns about quality.


    Not Started 46

    In progress 69

    Achieved 75

    Broken 40

    Which gives a grand total of 155 out of 230 or a 68% of his promises that haven't been kept in nearly 3 years.

    Not a great total is it? Especially when you look at the quality of ones he's achieved compared to the ones broken or "in progress" which just happens to be a political euphemism for "ain't ever gonna happen".

    If Trudeau could slam his marijuana legalization through in record time there is absolutely no reason he isn't or can't keep "all" of his promises unless of course he never intended to keep the ones he doesn't agree with.

    I agree, I don't think he has done a good job of keeping his promises, especially with a Majority government.

    Some more here....

    The Canadian taxpayer is on the hook for $3.8 million in retention bonuses for three top Kinder Morgan executives following the government’s $4.5-billion acquisition of the Trans Mountain Pipeline.

    According to the company’s filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission in advance of a shareholder vote on the takeover, Kinder Morgan Canada’s board of directors approved the retention bonuses last May 28.

    It was the day before Finance Minister Bill Morneau signed a purchase agreement for the acquisition of Trans Mountain Pipelines.

    The bonuses were approved for Ian Anderson, then president of Kinder Morgan Canada Inc.; David Safari, vice president of Kinder Morgan Canada’s Trans Mountain Expansion Project, the twinning of the company’s existing pipeline from Edmonton to Burnaby, B.C.; and Scott Stoness, then vice-president of finance and corporate secretary for Kinder Morgan Canada.

    That acquisition provided a 637 % return for Kinder Morgan as the company had spent less than $600 million and received the full $4.5 billion.

    The development of pipeline is now expected to cost well over $11.5 billion and increase Canada’s deficit by 36%, while the nation is also expected to sell the pipeline back to a private source at a loss.

    Meaning that at every level this project is being completed without efficiency or real economic return in mind.

    With such a massive gain on behalf of Kinder Morgan and such a massive loss on behalf of Canada, it is no wonder the company wants to retain the staff who made such a deal occur.

    On the other side though, it is truly jaw-dropping how a terrible a deal the Trudeau government has made, especially when considering that had they followed through with their campaign promise to consult first nations groups properly this problem would not occur.

    Instead, it remained another broken promise based on virtue signalling, and Canada spent billions on a pipeline that could have been free.
