There is no more money. The economy is in ruin. How can you spend more money. And how about presenting a budget ??? You did not present a budget in the spring. It is mandatory in our laws. The government has to present a budget every year, pandemic or not. And Singh should not talk, he keeps backing the Trudeau government. No one is looking for the Canadians welfare. None of the politicians are loosing salary, none of them face bankruptcy. And they voted themselves a raise last April.

Alberta oil is the answer....but no no let's leave our number one resource in the ground....great planning and leadership...not

NDP is responsible for economic crises, they are the one supported liberal, and pushed Canada in minority govt before even COVID-19.

[ultraskew]

His passion is completely gone from a couple yrs ago, now Singh is just transferring NDP votes to Trudeau

[jcushway]

Hey jagmeet, i see your still carrying water for the liberals. Smfh!

[deleteduser]

And who pays when the companies leave Canada?

[FryBagInc]

NDP party is a joke. Why is jughead not allowed in India?

[IDHP]

Bought and paid for and only knows one thing: Spend and don't ask questions.

[billmcc]

Well. And I thought the liberals were spending like crazy. Does Jagmeet have no idea that we have to produce wealth to pay for his wish list?

[MikelRChannel]

Jagmeet wants to be relevant but he's not going to bite the hand of the person that is feeding him $$$

[mstreet]

So after all that you say today, will you continue to vote against a non confidence when the next opportunity comes?

[tron]

Let’s give all our money away. Oh wait we don’t have any. We gave it to the liberals

[tdn]

instead of increasing tax on the wealthy abolish tax under a year

[justiceleague]

So Singh thinks that workers in money printing factory are not working hard enough.

[sethf]

Lol okay...where will the extra money come from? Yes, the wealthy should pay their fair share. We're already covering wage subsidies at 75%, providing extended unemployment, and have given loans to many companies. This is money that we borrow! It will have to be payed back at some point.

[Jivanmuktishu]

How is charging GST going to affect profits? I'm going to pay, not Walmart!

[hoverbotfpv]

We need legislation that makes all politicians investment when in office made public for transparency. The NDP should be a watchdog like that.

[a.r]

Forcing a General Election at this time will not be anyone interest.

[jackbarnes]

This country is in ruins. Politically and fiscally. No accountability, and outright carelessness!

[campliving]
