SINGH IS TRUDEAU’S HYPE MAN
Jagmeet Singh has announced that the NDP will be voting non-confidence to bring down Prime Minister Trudeau. Next year. It appears Singh is not familiar with the saying ‘too little, too late.’ He had a handful of opportunities to be a champion of the people and bring down this incompetent government. Singh chose equivocation, and ultimately propped up a tired and out-of-touch prime minister. And why should we take Jagmeet at his word, anyway? To use another phrase: I’ve heard it before.

COSTLY GIMMICKS
Justin Trudeau assumed Chrystia Freeland would ‘take one for the team’ like all ‘good’ Liberals do when he basically said he was going to fire her after delivering the dreadful Fall Economic Update about the country’s $61.9-billion deficit. Freeland’s early resignation with a kick to the crotch of Trudeau on the way out the door was surely something he hadn’t expected. But I suppose it’s a good way to try to separate herself if she tries to gather support from Liberal MPs in a bid for leader of the party in the future. In her departure, she stated her own view that the government had been engaged in “costly political gimmicks” to keep itself going. Most people reference that to the “GST tax holiday” and the proposed $250 rebate cheques in early 2025. I submit that the Liberal government has been engaged in “costly political gimmicks” since they signed the agreement with Jagmeet Singh’s NDP to keep them in power and they are both equally guilty for the deficit. No doubt some of the programs demanded by the NDP and the Liberals’ own desperate vote-buying to stay in power contributed to the government’s blowing of the budget by an extra $20 billion.
