Canada’s Corrupt Liberal Government

Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, who used to be a business journalist and was accustomed to querying politicians about inflation, was recently asked about rising inflation in Canada. This is what she had to say : “The inflationary environment we are seeing in Canada today is very much being experienced around the world. Those are not made-in-Canada factors, and so it follows logically looking for a made-in-Canada answer when those are the drivers is to be looking for the wrong tools.”

Current policies of the Bank of Canada and the Trudeau government could increase and prolong Canada’s annual inflation rate — now at 4.7% and already at its highest level in 18 years — according to a new study by the Fraser Institute.

“If central banks want to ensure that today’s higher inflation rate is transitory, they need to stop injecting unprecedented amounts of money into the economy and return to a more measured monetary policy,” said Steven Globerman, professor emeritus at Western Washington University and co-author of the report, The Outlook for Inflation and Its Links to Monetary Policy.

Erin O’Toole made light of Justin Trudeau’s description of the 2021 general election as a “pivotal, consequential moment for Canada” in his reply to last week’s Throne Speech.

“It was so pivotal that Justin Trudeau took his sweet time to bring the House of Commons back to be accountable to Canadians; so pivotal that three months later he has still not put in place the structure of government…

Talleyrand, diplomat and schemer extraordinaire, said of the Bourbons who ruled France both before and after the revolution that “They learned nothing and forgot nothing.” The same can be said of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his entitled coterie of acolytes and puppet-masters (yes, both). They have learned nothing from egregious ethical breaches and economic failures and they have forgotten nothing about divisive cultural wokeness and dysfunctional climate obsessions. (One thing that evidently has been forgotten is “deliverology,” which seems to have been a transitory enchantment. Look up deliverology in a thesaurus and you might find the PM’s picture under antonyms.)

Heath Krevesky is a self-confessed political junkie — and a bit of a nerd.

That’s his way of explaining why he’s been tracking his weekly grocery bill for years now. And why he’s worried that inflation is taking a bigger and bigger bite out of his food budget.

“In 2019, it cost me $9,826 to feed myself. In 2020, that cost of feeding myself went to $11,994, an increase of 22 per cent,” he said.

According to the totally unbiased CBC Justin is not to be blamed!

Get used to it. Whenever the Trudeau Liberal government climbs up on a soapbox to claim it has a mandate for anything – much less the complete reordering of Canada’s society and economy – I am going to point out that they were elected with the smallest share of the popular vote of any federal government in Canadian history.
