The federal government’s most recent cuts to the CIFA will eliminate close to one million hours of inspection, laboratory, and surveillance work every year.

Pierre is a Trump ass kisser and would have done all of this stuff and far worse stuff.

Harper had a reasonable immigration level, and wanted to diversify globally. So I'm just using that as an estimation, Id be curious what makes you think he's lying when his predecessor did reasonably at those things.

Harper isn't Pierre. Also he wasn't running again last time. Harper had his own set of problems, and I won't get into them.

With Harper we had a good standard of living. Rents fell relative to income, food bank usage wasn't as extreme as it is now despite being in a recession. Our dollar was doing well.

What measure were we worse in, some climate change metric that doesn't matter when taken globally? Indigenous are somehow worse off despite tens of billions in new debt going to them.

I know, when I immigrated to Canada Harper was at the start of his administration. I would rather have his setup than what is happening now.

But we can't roll back the clock.
