When I looked it up all the news made it up to be 'not poor but definitely not anywhere near wealthy' and couldn't find any info about what kind of coin he came from if any. im 99% sure pallister got a free-ride scholarship to BU on basketball. he was a teacher for awhile and a union rep for teachers hilariously enough until he got his CPA(or whatever the gently caress it was called in the 80s) and started an insurance company. hes a hardline reformer who left the PCs for the canadian alliance and idolized harper.

i missed prairie socialism chat but manitoba started a right-ward shift in the 80s under howard pawley's ndp government. the pcs and liberals relentlessly attacked him over budget deficits and his government ended with an ndp backbencher voting against his own governments budget because of the **DEFICIT**

Pinterest Mom posted:So I don't know that this is exactly what Milligan has in mind, but it's what I understand reading his comments. Also not an EI expert, so this is just my best understanding of the rules. All this does is prove how much better off people on the lower end of the spectrum are unemployed due to Covid on CERB instead of EI at any point in the recent past. First graph paints a rough picture of the drop after you go past $250, but the second gives much better perspective. The scenario of making $200-240 a week whilst picking up CERB gives you $700-740 a week. Take Ontario's minimum wage of $14 as an example without any taxes or deductions, you would cap off at 17 hours a week. Now, in order to match EI's benefits in the grandfathered system, you'd have to work double the hours! It's much worse with the other EI systems that I wouldn't even bother comparing. And it's only after trippling your hours do you start to break even once you have no EI or CERB left. Effectively that's working two jobs at minimum wage, or making above minimum working hard labour. There is significant diminishing returns making more money under EI, and literally no reason to make more than $240 a week whilst getting CERB. It's fine and dandy to debate the value of the programs from a monetary standpoint, but if nobody is out shopping and brick and mortar keeps closing down in the midst of a pandemic, all you will do kicking everyone off CERB with no job creation is create millions of destitute and homeless people. Over 8 million on CERB, it'll probably hit 10 mil before the summer's done. It feels like the 'negative' of losing CERB at $250 earned in a week misses the point: people are supposed to be social distancing and not interacting to stop the spread of Covid. So if you must work, working few hours is the point, not benefiting by working more. This is why CERB exists. Isizzlehorn has issued a correction as of 19:13 on May 27, 2020 |

Twitter already has all the idiot centrists running to the Rebel's defense because they cant see one micron beyond the grift in journalism clothing that the Rebel is. Seems everytime Ezra needs a fund drive he sends one of his lackies out to do this bullshit. It's sad because its so transparent. Sadder because it works.
