Saying investing in infrastucture is shortsighted is really dumb.

 

[Vamphuntr]

Le drame. La ligne de métro ne se rend pas où on veut acheter une maison. Trudeau is terrible in debate. My God.

 

[Windam]

Subtitles? Took French all throughout high school (though not extended or immersion) and I still hardly understand.

 

[gutter_trash]

the moderator's time limit for answers is stupid as fuck

 

[dragonfart28]

I like Mulcair's new response to Trudeau's 'Long term begins now' line

We shouldn't be using now to make future generations pay

 

[DrEvil]

I get so distracted by the misaligned party logos...they have to have done that on purpose, or they gave that task to a blind person.

Oh god why did you point that out. Green is lower.



Also watching this on CBC news net, they need to lower the French audio under the translators. It's like I'm in a weird room with someone watching another tv in the background.

 

[Walpurgis]

This 5 second answer thing is incredibly dumb.

Subtitles? Took French all throughout high school (though not extended or immersion) and I still hardly understand.

They obviously don't give a fuck. You just hear her saying 'ok, ok, merci, ok' meekly in the background

 

[_DrMario_]

Dussault sucks as a moderator.

 

[matthewwhatever]

Okay, Trudeau's translator is amazing. I wonder if they tried to match translators with the people's personalities?

 

[Tiktaalik]

Trudeau suggesting rebooting the Avro Arrow?

 

[Kurdel]

Duceppe's strategy reminds me of Francoise David's from the last provincial debates: seeking promises from the parties that have the real power.

The deficit proposed is like... nothing, from what was described to me earlier in this thread. Really the financial stuff seems to be more fluff than anything practical or useful. I like the idea of spending now, during a recession, but apparently while not a bad idea it's probably not going to change much.

I love how his translator sounds like him.

 

[lupinko]

Trudeau suggesting rebooting the Avro Arrow?

That was already suggested many times by opponents of the F-35. Really anything is better than the F-35. I'm all for military spending but buying into this project was just dumb on all levels.

 

[Sakura]

The English dub makes me so sleepy.

 

[Kurdel]

Harper on the economy

 

[Annubis]

"Pis arrêtes de dire n'importe quoi aux canadiens."

Mulcair MVP

EDIT: Holy hell, Mulcair is killing it now. "For everything else, there's Mastercard."

It's not sustainable to accrue $10 billion in deficits. We should be taking a more moderate growth approach because there is no evidence of the job creation the Liberal's are promising from that investment.

 

[Vamphuntr]

Mulcair's mimicking the Mastercard ad talking about Trudeau, "Pour le reste il y a Mastercard". Ouch

 

[matthewwhatever]

Yep, there are loads of better options at significantly lower costs. Don't understand how anyone could defend the current procurement process.

The English dub makes me so sleepy.

It's really disorienting. Though because all the translators are speaking quickly to keep up, it has a weird, hyper quality.

May has a new translator!

It was fucking amaaaaaaazing

Omg did he just say "Degouté" call the fcc

 

[_DrMario_]

Caliss... disgusted is a bad word now.

 

[Kurdel]

Caliss... disgusted is a bad word now.

His kids will have nightmares

 

[dragonfart28]

May's idea for senate reform sounds more difficult than Mulcair's claim to eliminate it.

 

[RevoDS]

Caliss... disgusted is a bad word now.

I laughed out loud at that one.

"I want to apologize in advance to my kids for the word I'm gonna use, but Canadians are disgusted"

...wait what? Did I miss something?

 

[Walpurgis]

Senate = British traditions. Nice!

 

[gutter_trash]

Ontario and Quebec are never going to agree to abolish the Senate.

 

[Tiktaalik]

Mulcair: "Senate = British Tradition"

Is this the sort of subtle thing that will play well in Quebec or am I reading too much into this...?

 

[maharg]

Duceppe's strategy reminds me of Francoise David's from the last provincial debates: seeking promises from the parties that have the real power.

Well it's basically impossible for the Bloc to ever have a mandate of their own, so it makes sense. I think that's been his strategy in every debate I've ever seen him in.

 

[dragonfart28]

Mulcair going on the offensive on Duceppe HARD after he called everyone out on the monarchy

Using the senate as sympathy against a british construct was smart


We need more Duceppe/Harper scuffles over sovereignty

 

[Walpurgis]

Mulcair: "Senate = British Tradition"

Is this the sort of subtle thing that will play well in Quebec or am I reading too much into this...?

I think it will help. His constant mentions of his time in the national assembly should help too.

 

[Vamphuntr]

That jab was pretty good. Too bad we're now on constitutional talks.

 

[Walpurgis]

Go Harper. lol

 

[Annubis]

Trudeau is such a goddamn broken record.
He's losing this debate horribly.

 

[gutter_trash]

Clarity Act vs Sherbrooke declaration time

Trudeau is such a goddamn broken record.
He's losing this debate horribly.

it doesn't matter, Trudeau's job is to preserve the Montreal base

 

[mo60]

Wow. Trudeau tried to pull a May right now and tell everyone else to focus on the economy instead of the constitution and the senate

 

[dragonfart28]

They should have posed the Scottish analogy to 50+1 question to Harper dammit

 

[matthewwhatever]

Oooh, switching to the French feed is a lot less confusing. I barely understand it, but it's better than hearing translators shouting over each other with the leaders muffled French in the background.

 

[Walpurgis]

Wow. Trudeau tried to pull a May right now and tell everyone else to focus on the economy instead of the constitution and the senate

It didn't work as well, imo. May seems more genuine when she does it.

 

[Walpurgis]

WHATS UR NUMBER TRUDOOO

 

[Tiktaalik]

Supreme Court was vague as hell those jerks

 

[_DrMario_]

Trudeau gonna lose hard on that.

 

[dragonfart28]

Harper trying to take this conversation out of sovereignty back to the economy.

In a Quebec debate.

 

[Annubis]

Trudeau gonna lose hard on that.

What the hell was that jab about opening the constitution to remove the N from NPD.
Trudeau... please stop... just stop.

 

[Walpurgis]

Trudeau gonna lose hard on that.

Yeah, he has no chance and LOL at that translator just now. Calm down bro.

 

[_DrMario_]

Harper trying to take this conversation out of sovereignty back to the economy.

In a Quebec debate.

We'll he's right. Quebec will never separate.

 

[Tiktaalik]

lmao "can we change the subject"

 

[Walpurgis]

Uh oh, Mulcair's in trouble...

 

[dragonfart28]

We'll he's right. Quebec will never separate.

It's shows a gross insensitivity when you avoid addressing this issue, especially in this particular debate.
