@annwmac Skid Mark, the alleged economic genius said he was a crisis expert and good negotiator - clearly he lied, is in over his head or both.
Instead, he brags about needing to increase and rebrand the HST rebate, the equivalent of food stamps.
If schools taught kids how much money the government takes off their paycheques — and exactly what it spends that money on — most Canadians would be fiscal conservatives going forward.
Yesterday, Durham Police announced they arrested 46 suspects for vehicle, insurance fraud and theft, jewellery theft, and other crimes. 164 people are still wanted.
This is what happened when you import 3rd world criminals to your country. Canada has been invaded.
46 arrested
164 wanted
1400+ charges
NONE of the 46+164 are Canadian, PR, or on a work visa. Just visitors knowing we have the weakest laws & leakiest border.
What are Durham Police up against? What are WE up against? THIS. 👇
I praise them for their diligence.
@gator_gum Yup and his stupid 5 month break can get him booted in the next election if the voters see fit.
Teachers will have summers off for infinity.
@ForMYCanada Translation: Blame anyone but the failing, shit talking, Economic Genius with a PhD who said Canada has the best deal, was a Crisis Expert, a Good Negotiator, and get Canada an ever better deal.
Laptop from Hell and dead-beat dad aside, he was convicted on three federal felony gun charges in June 2024 and pleaded guilty to nine tax-related charges in September 2024.
Great guy!!!
U link the Economic Times of India from Jan 2026. JFC!
I provide the non-partisan Canadian PBO report from June 2026.
Some highlights for ya:
1. The PBO projects the federal deficit will nearly double this fiscal year, from $36.3B (1.2% of GDP) in 2024-25 to $72.0B (2.2% of GDP) in 2025-26. Even by 2030-31, the deficit is still projected at $58.2B, with no return to balance anywhere in the projection window.
2. The watchdog projects annual deficits will run $4.6B deeper per year than what the government forecast in its own Spring Economic Update, driven by lower personal income tax revenues and higher-than-expected program spending.
3. The government has committed to a "fiscal anchor" of keeping the deficit-to-GDP ratio declining every single year. Based on decades of Canadian economic and fiscal history, the PBO estimates the likelihood of meeting that target in every year from 2026-27 to 2030-31 at less than 1%.
4. On the debt side, the PBO projects:
- Federal debt climbing from $1.34T to $1.66T by 2030-31
- Annual debt interest charges rising from $53.7B to $80.2B
- The debt service ratio reaching 13.1% of revenues, up from 10.5% today
- Per capita interest costs hitting $1,885/year per Canadian by 2030-31
5. Canada's economic outlook has also weakened since the PBO's last update. Real GDP growth is forecast at just 1.1% in 2026, down from 1.8% projected last September, with trade uncertainty estimated to permanently reduce GDP by 0.9% by 2030.
Oopsie!
