Nicr job Canada, unironically. From the US and I'd love for my taxes to go to this kind of thing instead of bazillion dollar military sharks with fricken laser beams on their heads.

Pretty sure Carney is also increasing the military budget a lot.

Unfortunately it feels like it’s not unwise to spend on defence.

I heard those sharks were put on the endangered species list

Trump signed an executive order and now all endangered species are drafted into the Iran war

Hey just a reminder the conservatives have added approx $10B to the Ontario deficit under Doug Ford. Cry harder about Carney.

I also just read an article that said the conservatives are calling the HSR project between Toronto and Quebec a waste of money and "pie in the sky". Boy am I glad that the Trump Lite idiot known as Poilievre didn't win the election. We would be so fucked right now.

You understand that Ford represents only 1 province, right? Are the other provinces not allowed to criticize our Prime Minister because the Ontario premier is a yutz?

Just one of many examples of conservatives everywhere being full of shit about “fiscal responsibility”. Take a look south for another great example!

You realize the real conservatives denounce Ford as a conservative right? There's a reason why everyone calls him a liberal...

“Real conservatives,” lol. He is the uncontested leader of the conservatives in the country’s most populace province. He’s for deregulation, privatization, rolling back environmental protections, tough on crime policies, and is vaguely reactionary on social issues.

>There's a reason why everyone calls him a liberal... Yeah, it's called "Stupidity".

This is admirable and I’ve appreciated Carney so far, but the Federal government decision to allow Alberta and Sask farmers to use strychnine is such a stupid decision, especially in contrast to conservancy initiatives like this.

Sounds like a racket. Just draw an imaginary line and say keep out of this area. Conservation done for free.

Imagine if our pedophile orange president put effort into protecting the environment instead of being on a revenge campaign. Sigh

What takes $3.8B+ (as noted that private investments will be required) to protect nature?? Literally the article says nothing about how this money will be used. Just 3 vague “pillars” Can’t say I disagree with this: "After 10 years of missing their own environmental targets, the Carney Liberals are pulling out the only trick they know — announcing a whole new bureaucracy to burn taxpayer money while continuing to get the same poor results,”

Personnel and equipment are very expensive

1) A lot of protection involves paying extractive interests to go away; 2) Especially for marine resources, patrol and security are needed; 3) This is also a restoration project for our wetlands, and restoration *is* expensive. It's probably the most important element too, given that this is funding meant to reach canada's biodiversity COP obligations, not climate ones, and yet Canadian peat lands contain twice the carbon of the world's oil reserves so keeping that shit in the ground is a big deal We were supposed to have been working on this for the last decade and have been dragging ass so now we're catching up quick.

Restoration or mostly clean up from corps and our own govts involvements in destruction. They dig, pollute etc..taxpayers pay for clean up.

Lol did the last decade teach you nothing about these liberals...?. And yes; it's the same liberals that served under the Turd. Only the great leader has been changed. They'll burn through cash and nothing to show for it. In a few years they'll be rumblings about a scandal and where all the money went. Then like magic it'll disappear. Honest question, have you been asleep for the last decade.?

Honest question, what good could you possibly believe Poilievre was going to achieve?
