  Well, here's the aadline. Polyf slams Trudeau for spending over two hundred and
• 0:07
  twenty thousand dollars on food alone during six day trip to Asia. Now we'll
• 0:13
  get to the video of this in just a second, but I just want
• 0:16
  to show you a few things first. Here from the Financial Post June thirteenth,
• 0:20
  twenty twenty four, many Canadians are accessing food banks for the first time
• 0:26
  as they struggled to meet basic needs. And what did they say again,
• 0:30
  Let's see, Trudeau spent over two hundred and twenty thousand dollars on food alone
• 0:34
  for a six day trip to Asia. So interesting. Well, it says
• 0:38
  here that the Canadian Poverty and Socioeconomic Analysis, which interviewed one thousand, five
• 0:44
  hundred and fifteen Canadians in March, found that sixty one percent of those who
• 0:48
  recently access to food bank, food Hamper or Community Meal program were first time
• 0:54
  users, a sharp increase from forty three percent in October twenty twenty three.
• 0:59
  The number of Canadians who accessed one of these programs was also up slightly,
• 1:03
  from six percent last fall to seven percent this spring. The total number of
• 1:11
  Canadians at seven percent accessing a food bank. Now, Canada is supposed to
• 1:18
  be a wealthy country, and yet you have seven percent of Canadians needing a
• 1:23
  food bank. That doesn't sound very first world to me. Now, once
• 1:26
  this, this is average house prices in Canada, Well, they were way
• 1:30
  down here when Trudeau took over in twenty fifteen, and now they're way up
• 1:34
  here. That's close to doubling. And when house prices go up, rents
• 1:38
  go up as well. All housing costs go up. And since housing is
• 1:42
  the largest expense for Canadians, that might help explain why so many Canadians are
• 1:48
  needing to use a food bank. Now. But what caused this? Well,
• 1:52
  here we have immigration. Well let's see, here's immigration when Trudeau took
• 1:57
  over, and here's where it is now. And these are just permanent residents.
• 2:01
  These aren't temporary foreign workers who many of them just end up being permanent
• 2:06
  workers and foreign students, which it turns out a lot of them end up
• 2:09
  just staying illegally. Anyway, how about this From March twenty eighth, twenty
• 2:14
  twenty four, from the Toronto Star, Canada's population hits forty one million,
• 2:19
  growing by a million in just nine months. One million people in nine months,
• 2:27
  and of course that level of mass immigration is going to tax the entire
• 2:30
  Canadian infrastructure and overburdened schools, healthcare, everything, hey, even food banks.
• 2:38
  So now let's watch this video of polyf slamming Trudeau for spending over two
• 2:43
  hundred and twenty thousand dollars on food alone during six day trip to Asia.
• 2:49
  Here're the opposition that's a little bit rich coming from him as he raises taxes
• 2:54
  on single moms for the crime of driving to the grocery store while he treats
• 3:00
  himself to a jet setting experience where the food on the plane on a six
• 3:07
  day trip was two hundred and twenty thousand dollars. Beef brisket, parsley potatoes
• 3:13
  with truffle oil, beef tenderloin with port wine sauce, braised lambshanks, and
• 3:17
  even cheesecase cree cape with pistachio brittle. Mister speaker, with Canadians lined up
• 3:23
  at the food bank, what's on the menu for this Prime Minister this summer?
• 3:30
  Gee? I wonder if Trudeau has a response to that that will satisfy
• 3:32
  anybody. Spoiler alert, he doesn't speaker. The Conservative later continues to use
• 3:39
  cheap attacks and slogans while he tries to hide from the fact that he is
• 3:45
  standing with the wealthiest Canadians and against the idea of them paying a little more
• 3:50
  so that Canadians, young Canadians can buy a home, so that seniors can
• 3:54
  get their teeth fixed, so that young families can find a place in childcare.
• 3:59
  These are the investments we're making that they are standing against, mister speaker.
• 4:03
  We will continue to deliver for Kenny idiots who need him while he chooses
• 4:08
  to protect the interests of his wealthy friends. Oh, I guess he's been
• 4:12
  really financially responsible and looking out for the little guy. And you know,
• 4:15
  Trudeau's hardly begun building his socialist utopia in Canada. And the great thing is,
• 4:19
  as Trudeau himself told us, that budgets balance themselves and nothing bad can
• 4:25
  possibly happen from all of this. Oh, hold on a second, turns
• 4:30
  out bad things can happen. Let's see, here's the national debt when Trudeau
• 4:33
  took over. And here's the national debt. Now, in fact, this
• 4:38
  is just from twenty twenty three. It'll be more than this in twenty twenty
• 4:41
  four. So one point one seven trillion from six hundred and twenty eight billion.
• 4:47
  But so what Trudeau's building a socialist utopia in Canada. Who cares about
• 4:53
  debt? Well, it turns out the people that we owe the debt to
• 4:57
  care about debt. Trudeau liberals to spend more on debt payments than health.
• 5:01
  Debt payments skyrocketing as spending remains out of control from March twelfth, twenty twenty
• 5:06
  four. Last week, the Parliamentary Budget Officer released a report warning that the
• 5:12
  Trudeau government spending plans remain out of control. The amount that taxpayer spend just
• 5:17
  to service the national debt is expected to go up by thirty three point four
• 5:23
  percent this current year and eleven point six percent in the coming year. That
• 5:29
  means the amount we pay to cover the interest on the national debt will rise
• 5:32
  from thirty five billion last year to forty six point seven billion this year and
• 5:39
  fifty two point one billion next year. It's important to put those figures in
• 5:44
  perspective because those debt payments offer no services and rob precious dollars from services.
• 5:50
  By next year, the federal government will spend more on debt payments fifty two
• 5:56
  point one billion than they do on health transfers to the province and territories,
• 6:00
  which is forty nine point two billion. These debt payments will be nine point
• 6:04
  three times the five point six billion the Trudeau Liberals are spending to get there
• 6:10
  ten dollars a day childcare off the ground. The debt payments will be double
• 6:15
  what we spend on the military. So it looks like it turns out that
• 6:18
  totally reckless, heedless fiscal mismanagement actually does have consequences. And what have Canadians
• 6:26
  actually gotten for this massive increase in debt and this massive increase in servicing the
• 6:30
  interest on the debt? Could any Canadian really say that things are better or
• 6:35
  are they worse? Like? Where is this utopia that was promised? Well,
• 6:41
  of course it doesn't exist. Then it can't ever exist because eventually reality
• 6:46
  collides with fantasy and reality just has a better argument. So all of this
• 6:50
  said, will Trudeau feel any contrition or embarrassment over having spent two hundred and
• 6:56
  twenty thousand dollars for a six day trip millions of people in Canada are going
• 7:02
  to the food bank, of course not. He's going to enjoy his beef
• 7:06
  brisket. Parsley potatoes with truffle oil, beef tenderloin with port wine sauce,
• 7:12
  braize Lambshanks, and even cheesecake with pistachio brittle. Because the socialist utopias for
• 7:19
  you, not for him anyway. That's all I'm gonna say about that.
