    1. And dental care for 12 and under kids?? I don’t know about anyone else, but my kids didn’t need any real dental care until 15 and 16 years old.

    2. …and they will still screw it up by making it impossible to qualify for, limit what is covered and pay a third party for profit insurance institution to manage it. Ya that is dental care for all. Laughable.

    3. Here in Nova Scotia children under the age of 12 have had dental care for over 40 years…how do I know…my child was covered….how many provinces already had it?….

    1. Why can’t he just say “if he didn’t have the godfather relationships, then he would have to pay $9,000”???? Why is Trudeau dodging question like Ambert Heard with other things?!?!

  1. How exactly does a measly one time grocery rebate “help Canadians struggling to put food on the table ?” As far as the dental coverage goes it expires when when a child turns 12. Children 12 and under cost a mere pittance when visiting the dentist. Notice how the coverage doesn’t extend into the years when they may require braces and then wisdom teeth removal. That’s when it really costs parents.
    Smoke & Mirrors.

    1. We will as usual pay for the expensive years of our childrens dental the way we always have. With our group insurance that our employer has put in place and be just fine. We don’t need Justin’s help and we didn’t ask for it either.

    2. I can,t believe Pierre didn’t hear me shouting at him to tell Trudeau exactly that. One weeks rent, One trip for groceries and essentials.

  2. “Poilievre struggles with the concept of friendship” actually means “I paid absolutely NOTHING”

    1. Friendship means splitting the cost equally. Influence means gifts. If the vacation was vetted by the ethics commissioner, then the ethics commissioner needs to have his own ethics evaluated.

    2. @The Green Xeno You mean the sister in law of a Liberal minister that was guilty of breaking ethics law. =Ethics Commissioner

  3. the most oblivious PM of the history of Canada. All his PMs are going to retire very comfortably while most Canadians will struggle to meet their financial obligations.

  4. JT: “Grocery rebate” “Dental benefits for kids” “Uhh errr uh”
    Does the parrot ever give a straight answer to a simple question?

    1. Does the donkey ever get the carrot… LOL… Because that’s all these little trinkets he tosses out our worth

  5. Trudeau living like a KING ,while we have Canadians living in tents in the winter ,in the coldest country on earth. Step down.

  6. Well how much do Canadians pay for Trudeau’s groceries? That is the amount the rebate should be.

    1. Why the hell do the taxpayers pay for trudo’s grocery bill. He gets paid to be PM so let him pay for his family’s groceries. WTF

  7. I’m sure everyone in that room makes more than they should and more than any above average canadian employee.

  8. To Trudeau, friendship = favours to obtain from. As simple as that. What ele can we expect for an entitled “boy” with no clue how most Canadians are suffering under his imperious rule?

  9. Why do we pay these politicians to do absolutely nothing and never _ever_ answer a directed question? Why? Kick them ALL out of office.

    1. Someone got to maintain the country but what we need is full transparency and why not an inverted social credit system for them?

    2. ​@Angela my French mother would be pleased to hear this. Personally, I find my French roots easily accessible. 😊

  10. I love when Trudeau talks about his American Billionaire Buddies lol…..Elon Musk has a Canadian Citizenship (3 seperate Citizenships actually) His mother is from Regina

  11. The preset PM struggles with the concept of “Optics.” He’s really an “SM” (Scandal Magnet) rather than a PM. No worries, Pierre, you can tell a lot about a person based on the friends he keeps.

  12. It’s become so difficult to listen to Trudeau speak, he refused to answer any questions from the opposition. Also, kind of funny that Trudeau is calling Elon Musk an American when he was born in South Africa and has a Canadian mother and has Canadian citizenship!
