Trump&Carney have been in power nearly the same amount of time. Carney has accomplished nothing.
The US economy, despite money printing inflation largely from covid, is roaring. People can live comfortably on traditional salary. Canadian’s are drowning in debt (177% of income!)
Finance Minister François Champagne just put on a masterclass in evasion at the Finance committee
MP Pat Kelly presses him (repeatedly) on when this government will finally balance the budget — a promise they’ve broken since 2015
Champagne’s response? Zero timeline. No plan. Just recycled talking points about forecasts like “strongest fiscal position in the G7” and “second fastest growth” that aren't in line with the current reality
Then the PBO dropped a bomb yesterday morning: less than 1% chance the deficit-to-GDP ratio will decline every year through 2030-31
Champagne still refuses to say whether he agrees with the Parliamentary Budget Officer. He dodges, pivots, runs out the clock
This isn’t accountability — it’s contempt for Parliament and for Canadians who are demanding fiscal responsibility
Unaccountable. Evasive. Out of answers
@PatKelly_MP@FP_Champagne
A bunch of sanctimonious white middle aged progressives infantilizing Indigenous people who—they seem to believe—need little pictures to make their way around the TTC.
@TrendPolCa@WeAreCanProud@althiaraj@MarkJCarney Carney has an agenda. He came here for the agenda. Any liberals questioning that are dead weight. This isnt a consensus government nor is it working in Canadians interest
Henry Nowak was mortally wounded by a hostile foreigner, held down & arrested by White police because he was accused of racism by his own murderer, where he then bled out & died on the street.
This is an allegory for what is happening to European civilization on a global scale.
