.@OurCommons places order for 6,000 bottles of fine wine to “maintain expected standards of hospitality” in Parliamentary Dining Room.
Stocking of wine cellar came 4 days after #Budget2026 lamented plight of “hardworking Canadians struggling to get by.”

As usual us boomers. The seniors are the scourge of this country. Yet history shows us that the majority of us worked from a young age through to old age. We paid taxes. We had families. We bought homes we contributed our whole lives but now we are the problem??? The government knew from the 50’s that we were coming. Yet are ill prepared for us. They took our whole lives. Yet now blame us for their last k of planning. Wake up people. It’s always everyone’s fault but the people in charge.
96% of Jews in Poland were murdered by the Nazis. That is genocide.
3% of Gaza’s population, mostly male combatants, died in the war they started. That is not genocide.
Imagine living somewhere where your hospitals start crumbling because Nenshi commissioned a 2-spirit Nepalese lesbian to fingerpaint the sidewalks instead.
You know Carney’s in trouble with his massive deficit, immigration insanity and Telesat scandal that CTV is now attacking Pierre Poilievre.
Bought and paid for media will do anything to protect Carney and keep the money rolling.
He doesn't really live here, you see. And when he does, he sees only Maple Leaf Lounges, conference rooms and hotel lobbies. He's not boarding a bus in North Edmonton where passengers don't speak English, and don't know you're supposed to line-up instead of push.
Most natural gas in Canada is used for heating and heavy industry, not electricity generation.
Carbon taxes are by their nature meant to increase the cost of natural gas.
You’re an economist, are you suggesting higher carbon costs have zero impact on revenues -> profitability -> investment in natural gas intensive industries?
I think this might be the single most deceptive and ultimately destructive federal budget I have seen in my lifetime.
More than $700 billion in new debt. Interest payments exploding to more than $85 billion per year.
And more than half of this borrowing is being hidden from Canadians.
476 billion being spent “off the books”.
The result of accounting gimmicks and manipulation by this Prime Minister to conceal what is ultimately the largest borrowing binge in Canadian history.
It’s the kind of accounting malpractice that could cost you your license, or even jail time, if tried in the private sector.
And incredibly, despite all this borrowed money, there is almost no help to deal with affordability or the cost-of-living crisis.
Instead, it is being spent on corporate welfare, insider handouts and a massive increase in the state’s involvement in the economy.
And to put that interest cost mentioned previously into perspective? Well, a family of four will literally have to pay $6,000/year in federal taxes just to pay the interest on the federal debt.
A number set to rise to $8,000/year by 2031.
At the same time, the government is also sneakily ramping up immigration to the highest levels in Canadian history.
654,000 new permanent immigrants – the largest in a single year.
Part of Mark Carney’s globalist vision, which he wrote about in his book, to dramatically increase Canada’s population to 100 million people (known as the “Century Initiative”) through mass immigration.
Further depressing wages, while straining an already unaffordable housing market, a collapsing balance sheet, and an overcapacity health care system.
Conservatives will never support reckless deficits that threaten the future fiscal capacity and stability of our country.
And we will oppose mass immigration that will depress wages while making housing less affordable and health care wait times longer than ever before.
If you want to understand how bad this budget will impact Canadians, you need to watch this video.
Pierre Poilievre explains the entire budget disaster.
While European and Asian consumers are now paying north of $30 per million British thermal unit for their gas, US buyers pay around $3 per mBtu. Canadian costs are even lower, at about $1.5 per mBtu.
This is a phenomenal competitive advantage for Canadian energy intensive industry, and for attracting AI investment. (But has been minimized by industrial carbon taxes and the Clean Electricity Regulations)

62,3 milliards $ le nouveau déficit à Ottawa.
Ça représente 1500$ par citoyen, tout âge confondu.
Hier, le gouvernement libéral à Ottawa vient de pelleter ça sur votre dos. Juste cette année. L’an prochain, ce sera pire.
Encore un gouvernement irresponsable qui hypothèque l’avenir de la prochaine génération.
Et les prétextes sont toujours bons pour justifier l’endettement public.
À Québec, on nous a parlé de moderniser l’économie en investissant dans la filière batterie.
À Ottawa, Carney nous dit qu’on doit stimuler la productivité.
Des belles paroles, de belles théories économiques.
La réalité est qu’ils nous appauvrissent et appauvrissent encore plus vos enfants.
Tout ça pendant qu’Ottawa prépare son plan pour augmenter substantiellement l’immigration.
Espérons que ce soit le point de bascule qui rendra le dépensier Parti libéral du Canada de moins en moins populaire au Québec.
