BTW your statement that:

is absolutely false Elections Canada does produce or issue such statistics. As of yet Elections Canada has not produced any demographic data on the 2025 Federal election.

What are you talking about? If you watched the election on TV on election night, you would have seen the pundits giving out demographics that very night. Regardless of who broadcasts it....it all comes from Elections Canada

Perhaps Langley Shoe Renew?

In the dark recesses of my memory I recall an ancient FWR thread (that I cannot find!) about a shoe repair/cobbler in Langley that re-felted wading boots. I seem to recall the business was located in Langley Mall, but the closest shoe repair place to the mall is Langley Shoe Renew just a block or two down the road on 56th.

Edit: did a bit of extra curricular digging...10 yrs ago Quick Cobbler in Vancouver re-felted wading boots and was (is?) an approved Simms boot repair centre

We are aware that what decides Aboriginal tittle is the law aren’t we? The government is merely the body in place at the time that contracts that were entered into and promises made, years ago, are finally being enforced. Any land claims like the one in Richmond aren’t being decided by any government but by the courts. In Canada we tend to obey the laws, even the ones that we don’t like.
And as far as the dog whistle about restrictions on fishing goes, there has been no one denied even a single days fishing.

I was.....and that same sort of thing filters into the provincial and even municipal elections.....the stats will prove it.

So what. Boomers don't have a right to vote? 

BTW your statement that:

is absolutely false, Elections Canada does not produce or issue such statistics. As of yet Elections Canada has not produced any demographic data on the 2025 Federal election. It is also ridiculous to suggest that only boomers voted Liberal is moronic. I am a bommer and did not vote Liberal. I know many other people who are boomers who at least told me they didn't vote liberal.  Exit polls by Ipsos suggest that a majority (55 to 60%) of Canadians  over 55 thought that the Mark Carney and the Liberals were best able to deal with Trump's tariff proposals while of those 34 and under 42% saw the Conservatives as the best choice to deal with  affordability and the cost of living.That's not even a majority. For people 34 to 54 or so by omission  don't seem to fall one way or the other. I am sure that you can do the math to see no age cohort appeared to completely favor, one party or the other.

This discussion was obviously intended as troll bait which you often eat with joy.

FWIW all federal elections ballots are private. Information about individuals voting patterns are not made available. Ballots are counted on election night or as required by recounts. Once those are complete they are stored for 10 years as mandated  by the Librarian and Archivist of Canada. They can only be retrieved by Judicial order. After 10 years they are destroyed.

Wait till you have to pay a toll to get to the Chilliwack or Chehalis river or your favourite park because FN slept under a tree that was once there.  Bend over everybody.

many of us can bend over even at our age. How about you?

I guess women and trans-people will be better off than that.

Why doesn't it surprise me that you don't understand or recognize masculine conversation....sigh....

Some things are worse that 50+ years ago and some are better. If life had stayed exactly the same as it was in the 60s and 70s I may not be alive today. People then didn't live as long and died from conditions and diseases that are treatable or even curable today.

Is the glass half full or half empty?

It's true what they say. The vast majority of boomers are unteachable. Your selfishness, rigidness and immovability to look beyond your own self is beyond evident.


BTW if you don't like what you think is going to happen do your best to vote for another government. The Provincial Conservative Party is opposed to this reconciliation stuff. However their current leader doesn't seem to know how to find his own dick in his pants and the Provincial Liberals stampeded over a cliff before the last election.

Perhaps if you checked the demographics of the most recent Canadian election, you would see that "Elections Canada" produced statistics that show the boomers were the only generation to vote liberal. It has been completely conceded to that the conservatives would have a majority government if the boomers stayed home on election day. Or at the very least.... all the boomers had to do was put down their "The Province" newspaper, stop listening to CBC, Global, CNN , etc....about how the lie that Pierre Poilievre was in cahoots with Trump. Again....most boomers are indoctrinated and so gullible. Trump was trolling Canadians....he knows how gullible the boomers in Canada are....the media ran with it, and the boomers bought it hook line and sinker.

Gee Bobby I can't help but wonder what your response would have been if I hadn't agreed with you?
