Instead of reducing the huge tax burden Canadians suffer, our Federal Gov't raised taxes on April 1st and we are the fools.
I bet the majority of these overwhelmed folks support liberal_party or NDP No concept of cause and effect. Conservatives understand how to keep their affairs in order. We fight back in defense of those who don’t know better and our future generations.
Moral of the story….. don’t live above your means .
But we're being told that we've never had it so good by our supreme leader
No bailouts for me
That includes the Canadian govt.
Don’t forget your taxes are going up tomorrow 😉
They don't have a limitless taxpayer funded credit card.
No waaaaaaaaaaay
Luckily Trudeau and Freeland have had 4 raises since covid to combat their failures in running the country.
TrudeauIsDestroyingCanada
Meh, to quote noted financial expert, cafreeland, my debt is actually increasing my economic capacity, so it’s all good. 🤷♂️💸
It’s going to be fixed with the liberals giving everyone 400$ for a year of groceries
Canada is broken in many ways
Keep voting liberal and everyone will be bankrupt in no time
But lets give billions to Ukraine and increase carbon taxes that achieve nothing. Screw it, government doesnt care how much debt they are in, I wont either anymore
Breaking even is seen as a 'win' in Canada today. But don't let that stop the Liberals with their hands in your pockets from letting you know how wonderful Canada is doing on a very specific set of metrics.
Can’t wait to become an American tax payer🇺🇸
It’s Trudeau’s Canada.
Shocker
Yet the liberals keep raising taxes, and allowing it to get worse
And the other half are Government employees
It also means that more than half aren’t
trudeau is destroying our lives, its ridiculous
The taxman does not help!
Trudeau just 'helped' them .LOL
As a liberal, I try to take on as much debt as possible. I recently maxed out a credit card with no plan to pay it back. It is the Canadian way.

This is a big surprise.
Budget 2023...it's time for a full audit of the governments, both federal and provincial, I want specifics. There is so much waste in these governments that everyone wants to see exactly where our money goes.
We are over burdened by taxes..
Maybe Canadians could run our households the way the liberals run the government. Print money and keep borrowing. Seems to be working for the feds
Only half?
Maybe a vote for Poillievre would help
Meanwhile JustinTrudeau is raising taxes on already struggling Canadians while his government gives themselves big fat raises.
Well we shouldn’t be. Trudeau the mesiah said he was taking in debt so that we didn’t have to. Wtf happened to that?
But the Liberals have our backs! Where are our handouts?
Overwhelmed by taxes.
not according to the fucked up libs, we've never had it so good,
The Toronto Sun comment section always entertains, always focused on politics and blind to the corporate pimps.
That's what being stupid, being ignorant, and living above your means does to people.
The table is being set for the “great reset”. The excuse will be, we had to do it for your own good. Scary thing is the sheep will follow.
Thanks to ONE FEMALE
That is your Canada JustinTrudeau & theJagmeetSingh. They are very happy with both of you in the central committee of the communist party of the people’s republic. Canadians are struggling. They are not that happy with you.
Almost half of Canadian workers are spending more than they earn. Household budgets can't run a deficit.
Gee the federal liberals make it look so easy.
Instead of really working to make life more affordable, the Liberal government will continue creating more handouts so more and more people become dependent. Canadians have to want much better!
Carbon tax fix you right up!! 🥰
“I’m making Canadian’s lives better!” -Trudeau, as he announces a $40B deficit, raises carbon taxes again and takes a nice big $10K annual raise for himself
Turns out when you keep raising taxes and creating new ones, it tends to have a negative effect on the finances of your citizens
Stop your reckless spending
That's pretty good, I thought it would be much higher
How can this be? Jagmeet and Trudeau are saying they are putting more money in our pockets. Could they be lying to Canadians?
You will own nothing and be happy.
The perfect storm !
Trudeau and Freeland are going to make things all better. Haven’t you seen the Budget2023 🤦🏻♀️😂😂😂
Ah come now, it's Justinflation.
If the governments stopped increasing taxes, maybe Canadians could rebuild their finances, rather than getting back table scrap refunds.
Meanwhile Trudeau is overwhelming Canadians by increasing the federal debt.
Because you spend money like Trudeau, but aren't underwritten by the BoC. Vote smart. Vote Conservative.
