Here is the most important number in this entire update and the one the government said the least about.
Debt service costs: $54 billion this year. Projected to exceed $80 billion by 2030. The fastest-growing line item in the federal budget.
Four years ago, interest on the debt consumed 6 cents of every tax dollar. By 2030, it will consume 13. Every one of those cents is money that does not go to hospitals, housing, or highways. It goes to bondholders.
There is no credible plan in this document to arrest that trajectory.
POILIEVRE: Carney, you doubled the deficit.
CARNEY: I reduced the deficit.
How is increasing the deficit from $31 BILLION to $65 BILLION reducing it?
What kind of Liberal math is that??? 🤔
Wednesday, Louise Blais, former Canadian Ambassador to the UN, gives her take on how the US sees Canada as reluctant to negotiate
"(Mexico) has taken a completely different approach. They've gone down the list of irritants that they have, they have checked off and dealt with with the, you know, we're talking about 50 here."
"...So whereas Canada, we are seen to having, wanting to keep all of the levers together, not make concessions."
"I'm just trying to make sure that your viewers understand the mindset of the United States."
"One is I think we have to show that we care, that this is important, that we value the relationship with the United States." @blais_louise
Trudeau flew in on a private jet for a $100,000+ speaking engagement after buying a mansion in Quebec to say the wealthy need to limit their wealth intake. Fresh off drinking from a plastic cup at Coachella (USA) after banning single use plastics in Canada and telling people not to go to the USA
LIBERAL MONEY PIT
Carney gave $200M tax dollars to LIBERAL INSIDERS to lease a "spaceport" that is just a GRAVEL PIT with a slab of concrete.
They don't even own the land. They're leasing it from Nova Scotia for ONLY $15K a year.
Liberals get rich.
Taxpayers get RIPPED OFF.
The green peace activist Steven Guilbeault is back.
CBC purposely puts on this lunatic to convince Canadians that taxing people on a trace essential gas will make us more competitive & change the weather. We live on the same piece of land as the largest economy on earth where this scam tax doesn't exist. Its theft. Plain and simple.
So CANADA is giving $8 MILLION for repairs to Chornobyl Nuclear Plant in Ukraine 🤯
Can I please have my tax dollars back, this IS ridiculous and criminal
This is Michael Green, the CEO of Canada Health Infoway.
Canada Health Infoway is the organization the Liberals handed $300 MILLION to build and run a software program called PrescribeIT.
The program failed on every metric. Less than 5% of prescriptions went through the program.
The program is now being shut down with nothing to show for it.
On Tuesday, Mr. Green testified at the health committee to answer for this mess.
He couldn't say where the money went.
When I asked him directly what taxpayers paid him to oversee this failure, he refused to answer. He admitted his salary is publicly available, but wouldn't reveal it.
How much did he pocket from the Liberals' $300 million PrescribeIT scandal?
Cowichan Valley residents gather to protest a proposed bylaw targeting family farms, chickens, bees, horses.
The local government officially backed down today, but outraged locals are vowing to vote them out anyways to punish their attack on rural life.
🇧🇪 Belgian MEP Kris Van Dijck: “I have a big problem about how the United Nations works at this moment. The Islamic Republic of Iran was nominated to a U.N. committee shaping policy on women's rights, human rights, disarmament, and terrorism prevention. How is that possible?”
We are the laughing stock of the world. I’d laugh too but not happy about $200 million of taxpayer money going to friends of the LPC for this poor excuse of a parking lot let alone launch pad.
🚨 BREAKING:
Canada spent $250 million to move prescriptions from fax to digital.
It launched in 2017.
Less than 5% of prescriptions use it
Doctors are STILL faxing in 2026
So they’re cancelling it.
The program was called “Axe the Fax.” 🤣
They axed the program instead
$250+ million
9 years later, they’re still faxing.
When does the money piñata, filled with our tax dollars, finally come to an end?
An "entry fee" to start trade talks?
CBC is lying to you.
Let's have a real discussion on cross border trade talks, but you won't get it from most of our national media.
