My husband and I are 70 yrs old and he is thinking about going back to work if things don't get better as we won't be able to keep our house. Can't keep up with the price of everything rising prices of energy and food.

So is Pierre trying to say that the budget doesn't balance itself?

Justin never experienced financial hardship in his life so what the heck would he know about rough times?

[dustyhedger]

YOU MEAN THE BUDGET WILL NOT BALANCE ITSELF ?!!! I've heard the Webster's Dictionary now has a picture of the PM beside the definition of failure .

The more I think about it, the more I feel this Federal Holiday is one more day Trudeau doesn't have to face Mr Poilivere.

[OneManJam]

Pierre for PM! Time to get Canada back on the right track!!

[jasonsmyth]

Spending more money to fight inflation? Don’t forget that budgets balance themselves.

[johnbehnam]

Trudeau is going down and can't wait for that day

$10 says David Akin presents himself as a victim online within 24-hrs, for the backlash he is about to receive for these shenanigans.

Finally a leader with actual, common sense goals.

This is how a pm should talk. Using logic and problem solving skills to improve Canadians’ lives.

Pierre Poilievre for Prime Minister 💙🇨🇦

[jhoonhp]

A country so rich in natural resources should be able to make money not have to print it.

[hamr]

Please deliver on these promises, my family and I are struggling and we need somthing to happen

[dznuts]

Pierre's farts have more integrity, honesty and class than the entire trudeau family lineage.

I like how this news outlet cut out the part of the liberal news reporter at the start that was heckling Pierre while he was trying to talk. These news outlets are out to get him, they already hate Pierre!
Go Pierre go! Our next PM!

[marilynn]

Looking forward to your policies....we are looking to you for leadership Pierre Poilievre. I also can relate to your personal story. Congratulations on your wonderful political campaign.

Ive been wanting him for PM for years now . go MR POILIEVRE TEACH THAT DRAMA TEACHER SOMETHING ABOUT ECONOMICS 😆

Pierre respects his audience not like Trudeau who lectures like he was speaking to a bunch of giddy school girls.

[Joepops]

His words remind me of former Finance Minister Paul Martin when he warned about inflation & fiscal restraint 29 years ago. Pierre can perhaps save this nation from the IMF trap.
