Morneau is as brain dead as it comes , matters not to him, he can go live in his French villa while Canadians fight to earn a living
Pays to have a Panama bank account as a tax shelter. Both him and Trudeau. Dirtbags.
So right off the bat he saying that moreau is lieing.
there liberals this is what they do spend spend why are you shocked
Wait, I was told the budget would balance itself! Was I lied to?
You mean it won’t? WTF. But they said it would.
@garrett knecht dont worry. If we spend just 10 billion more dollars, everything should work out.
trudeau doesnt have enough fingers and toes to figure this out
Chris Kish oh ok. I was getting worried.
Justin counts…and a nodder one, and a nodder one, and a nodder one…
We need to work hard to get our economic independence. having one customer and acting as a pawn to the orders of that customer is going create economical for long time to come.
The Liberals are liars always have been and always will be
No confidence vote coming and back to the polls.
26.6 BILLION dollar deficit. This is INSANE! Definitely time for war.
No surprise – Morneau is a Liberal… Their Style of communication is Deceive, Deflect, Dismiss, Deny, and Deny. He is just another Clown in Justin’s Circus. Elect a Clown(s) you get a Circus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m thinking: Elect a band of pirates, expect to get robbed.
Yet, economic markets love conservative governments. The Guardian, today (2019 12 16) ։ ʺBOOM! Almost £50bn has been added to the value of Britain’s biggest companies, as the City continues to celebrate Boris Johnson’s election victory. The FTSE 100 index of top blue-chip companies has just closed 165 points higher at 7519 points,ʺ seeing its best day in over three years, and ʺin total, the 350 largest listed companies in London have risen by £49bn today, on top of the £33bn rally on Friday.ʺ
I love reading your comments. Keep it up I’m a fan!
In other words, prepare for a recession.
The Liberal government is constantly saying household debt is too high
and should be payed down. The Liberals have started talking about the deficit as a percentage of GDP, they are trying to confuse everyone and hide the numbers. The Liberals are running a $26 billion deficit this year
and it’s getting higher every year. Our National debt in 2015 when Trudeau
and the Liberals took over was $612 billion, our national debt now is
$768 Billion and climbing fast. That’s an increase of 25 % or $156
billion in just 4 years, soon we will not be able to pay the interest on
that debt. What then… Sell Canada to the highest bidder. Has this
been Trudeau’s plan all along to Bankrupt Canada? Someone should tell
the Prime Minister that budgets do not balance themselves.
I agree. He wants to destroy Canada. It is the only reasonable explanation.

The liberals are perfect idiots!
Recession might happen sooner than later…
Canada has already been carved up and sold. Canadians are now just being conditioned for thier new masters.
Only a liberal can see something that everyone else says doesn’t exist.
China’s economy is slowing down. A recession is coming.
Pure crap that we are prepared.
It’s coming in 2020.
This comes as no surprise to anyone in Alberta.
Gee I didn’t see this happening. You spend like crazy and kill the economic engine of the country, what could possibly go wrong…
There heads are so far up there ars HOLES they can’t see or hear ANYTHING. There all covered in CRAPPPPPP!
