After saying that families should prioritize climate over feeding your family.

Is this a joke? We really really need a leader for our country.

It’s going to cost a lot more than $250 to buy my vote especially since my taxes are going to go up to the debt that they are adding 56 billion to at this point and I’m sure that will go higher. How about 250 thousand for my vote.

[bertjansen]

And that arrogant smirk that he inherited from Freeland.

So, to be person making $149, 000, will get this money. But, a senior who is trying to make ends meet on $35, 000, will not receive it? This makes NO sense, but then look who's initiating it...

[fringeFarmer]

WHY LOOK AT HELPING CANADIANS WITH PROGRAMS???? WE DO NOT WANT TO BE DEPENDANT ON GOVERNMENT. STOP SPENDING SO MUCH SO WE CAN KEEP MORE OF OUR OWN MONEY!!

[alexanderish]

What's the point of even discussing it. The, Government is desperate and have ran out of options. $250 cheque is so laughably inadequate and just proves the utter desperation of the PM and his government. Hoping against hope that somehow this handout would compel the voters to keep them in power.
