The budget will balance itself. Yesterday they blame covid, today they blame Putin. There will be something to blame tomorrow.

[t-bone]

The fact they are so chummy is terrifying. Especially when one is fiscally responsible for the others salary.

[jimvalin]

Absolutely nothing for seniors except being screwed

[mpfligs]

Oh man. She’s so out of touch. Liberals need to go.

[Jen-e-sis]

Christie freeland is snorting all that money

[MrsSheffield]

And STOP GASLIGHTING us Canadians!!! “Canadians are smart…”
Yes we are smart enough to know you are gaslighting, not gonna fall for it.

[Harbinger]

Spending $56, 000, 000, 000.00 more dollars than you collect in a ONE year. That’s fiscal responsibility in what she calls a mind. Please describe what being irresponsible would look like to you.

[questionmark]

Fiscally responsible and Liberal/NDP in the same sentence should considered an oxymoron

[Danutatruth]

Freeland is taking about nothing as always. How can someone save money for down payment if everything is so expensive!!! Even when they work two jobs. Even if they have money for the down payment they don’t qualify for a mortgage.
What does Putin have to do with years of Canadians not being able to own a house? Disgraceful!!!

About as fiscally responsible as a lottery winner that spends his way through millions only to find himself broke after a few years and a string of misguided purchases, badly judged investments, and fair weather friends. This is no different, and promises to be just as beneficial given the total incompetence of the government in question.

I thought the budget was going to balance itself?

1.5 Trillion in Debt and climbing by the second. A Liberal budget that is fiscally responsible, muahahahaha

[jeffsmith]

How did Freeland figure out the rest of the budget once she finished counting all of her fingers and toes?

[jullianbashir]

How is it fiscally responsible ?, .. inflation is beyond limits, debt rate is beyond normal …

[southboss]

that should suffice to cover Trudek's weekly trips to Europe to lecture on democracy )))

[dawsonholdsworth]

Fiscally impossible you mean.
Your not ambitious when you can just print money to pay for debts.

40 year high inflation and part time jobs don't count as full time jobs.

[alisonmartel]

I hope she is joking...sadly she is serious. What a pathetic human.

[jasonbernard]

Things in the budget will cost twice or triple as much as claimed

[kenmclaughlin]

Wrecked so many people over their silly lockdowns

[ryanpeplinski]

Humble: multiply your annual income by four. That’s what the bank will loan you for a mortgage. Each $250, 000 of house = $1, 000 monthly mortgage payment. How much will it cost you to buy $1 million dollar house? Don’t forget you also need a 5% down payment.
