Look at Purolator's profits over that time. Despite being over 90% owned by Can Post and poaching profitable parcel routes from CP, leaving the unprofitable ones, not one cent of their billions in profit over that time counts on CP's books.
CP is being deliberately destroyed and you're being conned.

The Govt's ‘beds in sheds’ plan going before Cabinet today is a recipe for exploitation and substandard accommodation.

Hiding a generation in back gardens is not a solution to our housing crisis.

Why would anyone expect a public service to make money?

If we're going to use this as a standard, how much money did the RCMP and the Canadian Armed Forces "lose" in the past eight years?

Irrelevant whos doimg it was, its the platform on which they are currently elected and have not changed position. Even so at best they may be centrist.

Through the Liberals’ repeated use of Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code, they are violating the Charter-protected right to strike and attacking workers’ ability to fight for a liveable wage.

How come they keep spelling “open” wrong?

Does that street look closed to you? Only if you’re a car… and presumably that’s the real problem. #UrbanTruth

Ireland must close its airspace to US military aircraft en route to fulfil military objectives in the Middle East.

How can we be confident the Government knows there is nothing of concern in the military planes overhead when they can’t even accurately count them?

Families are under pressure from every direction.

Rising energy costs are just one of many bills, and current supports are too broad and miss those who need help most.

We need targeted measures and long term solutions like solar to bring real, lasting relief.

When it comes to spreading disinformation, dark money buys a lot of repetition, because repetition works.

Repetition works.

Not once in the 80s, 90s or 00s do I recall a politician urging the public to embrace email, mobile phones, texting, two factor authentication, online banking, air fryers, or to replace all their cassette collection with a CD collection.

So forgive me if I smell a rat.

I will always find it confusing that some people think a person riding a $2000 bike to commute is a privileged elitist but the guy in the $80k truck that costs $150 to fill is the working class average joe.

The govt have shown a shocking lack of empathy for people suffering under the crushing weight of the cost of living crisis.

What transpired in last week's protests was foreseeable and avoidable.

And the fact that the govt didn't foresee or avoid it brings into question their competence.
