Dear John,
$1 trillion.
That’s a 1 with 12 zeros after it.
Canada’s federal debt is about to hit $1 trillion – and if you don’t help your fellow Canadians wake up and do something about it, this country will be under a crushing burden of debt for generations.
You need the right tool for this job. And you have a big job ahead if you’re going to stop the Trudeau government from burying Canada in debt.
That tool is the National Debt Clock.
Want proof?
“There were few better arguments at that time that carried the weight of that damned clock!”
You know who said that? Former finance minister and prime minister Paul Martin. He didn’t slay the deficit in the 1990s for fun. He did it because thousand of Canadians like you made him do it and used the National Debt Clock to make it happen.
You’ve done it before, and you can do it again.
We’re already planning a post-COVID Canada-wide campaign to bring the National Debt Clock to every single province. We’ll do dozens of media interviews. And we’ll do campaign stops so you can show your neighbours the National Debt Clock in person. Let’s be honest, most people aren’t like you. They don’t pay attention until you put something right in front of their face.
But we have a problem: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau broke the National Debt Clock.
Concerned Canadians like you put the National Debt Clock on the road in the 1990s. They designed a huge scoreboard mounted on a big trailer. They never dreamed they’d need more than 12 digits. But they had never seen borrowing like this.
Canada’s debt is hitting $1 TRILLION next week.
That’s a thousand billion. That’s 13 digits. And that’s more than the old National Debt Clock can handle.
You need the right tool to fight a debt this big: you need an even bigger National Debt Clock.
The best way to build a National Debt Clock today is to put a huge video screen on the side of a full-sized moving truck. We can put up those huge flashing numbers to show the debt spinning up in real time. We could even tailor the message to show the video of Trudeau saying the budget would balance itself.
You need the right tool to do important work. That’s true for farming, construction, commercial kitchens and it’s true for holding politicians’ feet to the fire. When you find the right tool, it’s worth the investment.
A new National Debt Clock isn’t cheap. We’ve received the quotes and to do it right, it will cost $90,285. If 1,500 concerned Canadians like you chip in, you can get the new clock on the road. Will you invest $60 in a new National Debt Clock to fight Trudeau’s spiraling deficit?

Let’s be honest: too many Canadians are apathetic and cynical. That just means politicians can run up huge debts and those people don’t even notice. And if we don’t force Canadians to look at that huge debt, do you think anyone else will?
You can invite your neighbours to see the Debt Clock in person during our national campaign. You can show them the debt is going up by $43 million an hour. You can show them their share of the debt is already more than $26,000. Your neighbours will start adding up their share of the debt, plus their spouse’s share and their kids’ share.
If you want to fight Trudeau’s deficit, if you want to warn your neighbours about their soaring share of the debt, if you want to join thousands of other CTF supporters to invest in our new National Debt Clock, please click on our secure donation site: https://www.taxpayer.com/donate/trudeau-broke-the-debt-clock
You know the National Debt Clock can make a difference because it’s done it before. It pushed Martin to slay the deficit in the 1990s. We know you and thousands of other Canadian Taxpayers Federation supporters can do it again.
Thanks for all that you do – it’s making a difference.
Sincerely,
- Aaron, Todd, Shannon, Scott and the rest of the CTF team.
P.S. We would like to thank our most generous donors by recognizing them on the National Debt Clock. If you donate at least $300, we will display your name right on the clock.
