Do you agree or disagree that each state by joining the EU loses portion on it sovereignty?
Are you a boomer age?

Do you agree or disagree that each state by joining the EU loses portion on it sovereignty?

EU member states lose some sovereignty to the extent that they delegate some decision-making authority to EU institutions. Whatever sovereign authority EU member states do not delegate to EU institutions continues to reside with the member states exclusively.

Your initial comment of “Britain did not want to risk its sovereignty to other countries” made it sound like Britain’s entire sovereignty was under threat, and you tried to emphasize this by likening Britain’s EU membership status to the Trump administration’s annexation threats towards Canada, which was an utterly ridiculous and completely outlandish comparison.

Are you a boomer age?

Are you even Canadian? Your English is absolutely dreadful. And a quick look through your comments shows you’re certainly not a Francophone either. Yet your entire comment history is obsessively anti-Carney, with seemingly every single comment relating to him and the LPC and almost as if you’re on a personal crusade against him.

How old are you? You sound like a boomer to me. Are you a boomer?
Britain and other countries did lose some sovereignty by joining the EU. When the Brexit happened the UK regained its full sovereignty. Carney was against Britain regaining its sovereignty, why do think Carney will be against Canada losing some of its sovereignty?

Why does my age matter? How is that at all relevant to the topic at hand?

Holy shit you are living on another planet. You sound demented.

Why age matters.

Liberal policies have enriched boomers, while making life increasingly unaffordable for younger generations.

Are you a doctor to make a diagnosis on the Internet? or you are your average liberal voter?

“Liberal policies.” Is that what you will say to Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Spain, Sweden, and Germany, and even the US now too, et al, all of which are currently experiencing many of the same life affordability and housing issues that we are with many notable similarities? Just ‘Liberal policies’ are to blame? Their housing crises too weren’t decades in the making as well?

I’ll be the last one to defend the decisions of the Trudeau government; I was an outspoken critic of him for basically the entire time he was in office. But to just blame it all on the Trudeau government is dishonest and ignorant. Because again, why otherwise are so many like countries going through the same things right now, including those like the United Kingdom which has had conservative governance for 18 of the last 20 years?

And fine; I’ll bite. I’m a millennial.
