Gosh, imagine how much we’d balloon the deficit if Pierre was in power. You have a good point NatPo, I’m definitely voting for Trudeau again.
Fuck this rag backed by foreign billionaires. We’re in a tricky spot, but cutting taxes is guaranteed to make shit worse.
Yeah, it must be the spending, not the enormous cuts to large business taxes that have been continuously occuring over the last 40ish years.
Unlike America, the happier members of the g7 are all tax-and-spend countries, where economies of scale and single-buyer purchasing helps us all tremendously.
But as we talk about foreign influence on our elections, here’s the insidious creeping toxin itself. Fuck off, natpo, you navel-gazing mouthpiece slithering from the shadows of your former greatness to parrot one cruel suggestion after another.
We do not need to follow America’s footsteps. We’re good being happier.

Plus create jobs!!! /s
Can we ban articles like this? I’m not saying remove NatPo entirely (though…)
But here’s the entire thing:
‘We have to have both sides of the ledger, and I think we’re not seeing enough of that certainly from this government,’ says the head of the Business Council of Canada
Ottawa bureau chief Stuart Thomson talks to Goldy Hyder, the president and chief executive officer of the Business Council of Canada, about the current mood in corporate Canada and what to expect from the federal budget on April 16, 2024.
How is that an actual article?
@[email protected] pretty much exclusively posts this kind of “pro-business” drivel.
We need to grow the economy.
And nothing grows the economy more thanlower-income people having more money to spend, so we’re advocating for increases to social security and welfare…
says the head of the Business Council of Canada
Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way; bullshit. Governments have spent money for a long time. This dude probably wants to go back to the days before income tax where you could put whatever you want in a sausage, and staff the plant with indentured 9-year-olds. I’m not even sure if spending got noticeably lower in the trickle-down era, because the Cold War was raging at the same time.
