March 27: (pre-budget), PM Trudeau announces measures from the upcoming Budget 2024 that will include:
  • => Creating a new Canadian Renters’ Bill of Rights, developed and implemented in partnership with provinces and territories. This would require landlords to disclose a clear history of apartment pricing so renters can bargain fairly. We will also crack down on renovictions, create a nationwide standard lease agreement, and give renters more agency.
  • => Launching a new $15 million Tenant Protection Fund. This would provide funding to legal aid and tenants’ rights advocacy organizations to better protect tenants against unfairly rising rent payments, renovictions, or bad landlords.
  • => Making sure renters get credit for on-time rent payments. Renters deserve credit for the money they put toward rent over the years, especially when it comes time to apply for a mortgage for their first home. We’re going to amend the Canadian Mortgage Charter and call on landlords, banks, credit bureaus, and fintech companies to make sure that rental history is taken into account in your credit score.

Hey waldo buddy, did you see that Junior is finally addressing the demand side of housing?  Remember when you denied that was an issue?

We have all kinds of laws governing firearms ownership in Canada and none of them has failed a constitutional challenge.

Are you seriously trying to say that the NDP and Bloc would have brought down the government over this issue?

Yes, an excuse.

quit your bafflegab! Care to make your linkage between a judicial level constitutional challenge and a House confidence matter? Answer the questions wilber - answer them; again:

Is waiting on the outcome of a constitutional legal challenge... an excuse? Is waiting on the related legislation to pass both the House & Senate before being passed into law... an excuse? Is waiting on the PSPC ITQ (that only closed Jan 29, 2024)... an excuse?

Really wilber, really?

Firearms ownership is not a right in Canada and nowhere in our constitution does it say that it is. We have all kinds of laws governing firearms ownership in Canada and none of them has failed a constitutional challenge.

Yes, an excuse.

A lot of excuses as usual. NZ introduced its buyback program six days after the Christchurch shooting. Instead of pissing around for 4 years with nothing to show for it, they started their buyback right away while working on future changes in gun laws which will come into effect until 2028. Our government could have done the same thing.

it's all in the post (here) that I just linked to in my most immediate prior post... the one you refuse to acknowledge!

again wilber, from the prior linked post that you refuse to acknowledge... pointed questions you refuse to answer - that you continue to ignore! Again:

Lots of excuses.
