Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland is going on a spending spree with your money. 

------------------------------------------------------------

Hi John,

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland is going on a spending spree with your money.

Freeland claims she is “exercising fiscal restraint” and “reducing government spending by more than $15 billion.”

But here are the numbers from the budget Freeland just released:

In 2022, spending was $470 billion. In 2023, it will be $491 billion. By 2027, spending will reach $556 billion.

Does that look like saving money to you?

Newsflash for Freeland: if you increase spending by $85 billion, you’re saving money wrong.

Any hope the Trudeau government will ever balance the budget vanished.

The deficit will be $40 billion in 2023. The best this government can do is promise to bring the deficit down to $14 billion by 2027.

Big deficits mean more debt for your kids and grandkids to pay back. The debt will be more than $1.2 trillion by the end of the year. That’s about double the $616-billion debt Prime Minister Justin Trudeau started with.

Big deficits mean more of your money is being wasted on interest charges. Each Canadian’s average share of the bill for interest charges will be more than $1,000 this year.

Big deficits mean more tax hikes. The carbon tax will cost the average family up to $710 this year, even after the rebates.

Can you afford to pay for Freeland’s spending spree?

You can email Freeland and let her know what you think of her big borrowing, big debt and big taxing budget. You can send Freeland an email using this address: [email protected] (mailto:[email protected])

You pay too much tax because the government wastes too much money. Here are some examples of wasteful spending from the Trudeau government:
* Spending nearly six figures on fancy airplane food for the governor general and her entourage.
* Spending $6,000 per night on a hotel room for Trudeau.
* Doling out $200 million in bonuses for bureaucrats who can barely meet half of their own performance targets.
* Members of Parliament taking four pay raises since the beginning of the pandemic.
* Announcing $295 million for the Ford Motor Company.

Thanks for fighting for taxpayers – it’s making a difference!

Sincerely,
* Franco, Shannon, Todd and the rest of the CTF team


PS: It only takes a minute to email the finance minister and tell Freeland to stop wasting so much money and balance the budget: [email protected] (mailto:[email protected])
