    Edmonton, Aurora, Sarnia, Moncton, every city and county, had better signal boost this to every person that Poilievre doesn’t actually care about them and just wants his voters to get angry at everyone else.

    Unlike provinces, most municipalities are not allowed to have debt. They’re literally making do with whatever they can get.

    Yeah, in towns all over there’s corruption abound, small and big, but cutting funding to cities is not going to remove that, but actually make the pie that gets wasted bigger.

    (“Oh, the budget is 10% less, better cut back on kickbacks this year!” - No corrupt politician ever)
