"It can never happen here.” “It won’t get that bad.” “This is America.” Such foolish words. Such blind people. When the country had long passed the point of no return, they still believed that with the next election cycle things would turn around. Moral character and moral fiber were no longer requirements for those who ran for public office, but such ideas were openly mocked.”

Toronto Star: With no new budget in two years, Justin Trudeau has been spending with our eyes closed
March 18, 2021
Friday is the second anniversary of having no federal budget, but it’s no reason to celebrate.
calgaryherald: Corbella: Trudeau may 'not think about monetary policy' but our next prime minister should
Justin Trudeau made a statement last week that received very little media coverage but should have been the main talking point of his political opponents and the media.

When asked by a reporter about the rising cost of living in Canada — with inflation rising by 3.7 per cent — Trudeau answered that he doesn’t think about monetary policy. Astonishingly, he looks really proud of himself after he uttered that comment.

“When I think about the biggest, most important economic policy this government, if re-elected, would move forward, you’ll forgive me if I don’t think about monetary policy,” Trudeau said at the Wednesday press conference. “You’ll understand that I think about families.”

His comments were made on the same day Statistics Canada reported that inflation hit 3.7 per cent in July, one of its highest levels over the past two decades and the fourth straight month outside the central bank’s one per cent to three per cent control range.

Trudeau’s comments are a huge public relations fail, since Prime Ministers — and those who aspire to be prime minister — should care about everything that affects the economy and the financial well being of every Canadian.

Franco Terrazzano, federal director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, calls inflation a form of taxation.

“If you’re worried about a family’s ability to put food on the table, then you should worry about monetary policy. If you’re worried about people’s savings, then you should worry about monetary policy. So, yes, the inflation tax is something that all parties should be worried about,” said Terrazzano...

But, at least Trudeau is consistent.

Terrazzano said this brings to mind the gaffe when Trudeau said that the “budget will balance itself.”

“I think there’s only one person in Canada who thought that and I think the record shows that he was wrong,” said Terrazzano. “Trudeau promised Canadians that he would balance the budget by 2019, and he missed that target by a country mile. And so this Trudeaunomics isn’t going to be working out for future generations of taxpayers.”

Terrazzano says that Canada’s debt is growing by more than $424 million per day or by $17.6 million every hour!...

This is an unethical transfer of wealth — it’s theft from future generations and it’s immoral. It’s the opposite of compassion and if we don’t get spending under control, no matter how much our economy grows, the budget will never come close to “balancing itself.”

“That money can’t go back into our pockets through lower taxes because that money has to go to the bond fund managers to service the debt, and remember, under the Liberal government’s status quo, we won’t see a balanced budget until 2070
