I literally watched the lib minister say it was 480 billion in just investments. Where tf are people getting 78.1 billion from? What about the 115 billion he also mentioned? Were talking about a 600 billion budget

 

[adragons]

Haven't looked into it at all, but usually its "480B in investments (over ten years)"

 

[border_humper]

So conveniently less than the 100B total bandied about by the mockingbird media the past couple weeks.

$1.5 billion per week.

The income tax we pay, the gst, bullshit duty, tariffs and fees, that all needs to be $1.5 billion more PER WEEK just to break even.

Why, that’s the Sacrifice, my patriotic Canadian friend! You sound like someone not employed by the Federal Government.

Heard the Lib Finance fuck yacking and just had to make it into a meme.

"Why yes, I know nothing about sailing. How did you know?"

 

[RightOfSask]

Seems like the drama teacher we had as PM for almost ten years was more fiscally responsible than the banker. Crazy world.

 

[Hirudinea]

It takes years of practice to really know how to piss away money.

Imagine my shock. Who will the other two be?

Canada’s total federal debt is forecast to rise from $1.35 trillion in 2025–26 to $1.59 trillion by 2029–30

What the fuck?

Spend like no tomorrow. It will never ever be paid off. Add in provincial debts...... We will have a million dollar bill like Zimbabwe and maybe get a loaf of bread for it....

Taxpayers are killed with excessive taxes already. How soon before they want more? I think most western countries are in same mess and how soon before it all collapses? When it does it will make 1929 look like a party...

they’re collapsing the existing fiat system in order to implement and even faker and gayer fiat system, the feature of this system however will be to be able to dictate what the new fiat can be spent on. To reduce carbon or some shit

If native Canadians are being told we'll need to make sacrifices and downgrade our already eroding lifestyles, does it not seem counter-intuitive to continue bringing in 'refugees'?
I'm just a silly ol' pleb who don't know nothin' 'bout nothin', so I can't square that circle. Which is why I'm so thankful we have people able to make these decisions that make no sense to me. Because surely they have the best interests of us Canadians at heart.
I'd be liable to make some gosh darned goofy plans, such as the complete opposite of everything they're doing. Silly me.
