Canada is being crushed by the failures of this government.

[andyd]

She and Trudeau caused this problem. She's acting like someone else did. Thank you Vassy for asking hard questions.

[wumble]

Worst budget in the history of Canada.

[RayGee]

Canadian should freeze Freelands bank account.

[DrearyErie]

Whipping out the curling iron and makeup isn't going to make you or your budget more attractive. Just resign already.

[mr.c.]

I dont think she can understand the questions Vassy. Pathetic politician.

[stevenjohn]

I hate when she says what "canadians want". She has proven to NOT know what canadians want

[MrBobbyBrown]

She is SO out of touch it's insane.

[misterlee]

Remember they said “housing isn’t a federal problem”. What a bunch of vote buying hypocrites

[gorgeousgeorge]

$3000 shoes, a $10000 makeover still adds up to a pig with more lipstick.

[ematt]

Vassy asked some great questions that Canadians actually have... None of which were answered by the lizard person.

[menacexp]

Freeland has zero idea what she's talking about

[tipoomaster]

Why does everything she says sound like it's coming from a condescending 3rd grade teacher

[editorblue]

Deflect, prevaricate, and platform.
They are done.

[Baileygirl]

She doesn’t want to be asked questions, so keeps talking and not letting Vassey ask any questions empty words

[wowza-]

She is calling 54 billion responsible spending. Think about that for a moment.

[impactfully]

Her and Trudeau are so Narcissistic. They talk as though someone else created the mess that we are in and not them. Both doesn’t answer any questions and provide the rehearsed pageant answers. She doesn’t even allow the interviewer ask the questions. So disrespectful and disgusting 🤮 We can do better, Canada. We deserve better.

[StrollinNolan]

stop trying to redistribute everyone's money!

[sasquatchwasarrested]

Is the word Canadians a buzzword now? I just can not fathom this. They say this while everyone i know in my life wants the liberals to face a fate worse than resignation. Lol

[kvkpcor]

Child care for just $10 a day? She can’t be serious. I’ve just enrolled my baby in a child care program that costs $1430, which breaks down to $65 per day, starting from September 2024. I was told that I am one of the fortunate ones to find a spot.
