When I see 213.9 at the pump and $7.50 for lettuce I feel better knowing we have a AAA credit rating. 🤬
I wonder what it takes to loose the AAA rating another 100 billion in spending?
@@leecrumble3921that’s another thing I’m wondering. How much did they pay for that AAA rating
Yea. That’s what helps me sleep better at night
sleep and eat
True.
Anand is a privileged politician that does not struggle like 85% of Canadians. She is on a cloud, and we are down on the ground.
and thats supposed to be rectified how?
Freezing their pay increases and getting rid of the tax free allowance they get each month. They don’t even have to show receipts to get it!
What politician isn’t.
@@bw6078the example was givin and you came back with nothing.. you are the issue
@@corysnow7811 I fully understand how wealthy politicians are. Entertain this. You get what you pay for. The next PM hasn't even had a real job. Maybe we need to pay them more to get more intelligence in the field.
Why do all Liberals talk with the same condescending tone?
Part of the gaslighting techniques.
"You will be own nothing and be happy. Ok?"
they think they are better and smarter than everyone, muh University etc
They sound like schoolteachers. Pseudo experts while incapable of doing actual work in the real world.
She is delusional. Oh wait, nothing new.
Should be fired ASAP
her time is coming
Canada is a sinking ship, sad state of affairs.
She was a totally incompetent procurement and defence minister now even worse as treasury minister. Her husband’s company has received several government contracts
Life labs 66 million covid testing .
Anand has no idea what she's talking about. Productivity is falling
Didn't you listen to her opening statement? You can not argue with her metrics.
Lowest unemployment?? Like we don't actually know that ts 6.2% and up to 10% in newfoundland.
Time for an election. These clowns need to go!
Nothing says 'responsible' like spending more on servicing government debt than healthcare.
spend all the money buying crack in the hospital emergecy waiting area
You have ballooned the deficit nine times in a row now, and the projection is that it will never end. In what world does this equate to "We are being responsible in terms of spending"?
Thanks to Vassy for driving hard questions and insisting on better answers to questions and not letting deflection work.
Anand does not sound convincing. I am not a Liberal but at one time I respected her but she has been bouncing around the cabinet. Be careful Anand you may be another martyr for Trudeau.....
I guess she was dragged into the spotlight this time to signal her loyalty (nobody wants to be close to JT nowaday). Her constituency is turning into light blue from crimson and her seat is at risk.
What a joke this is.
ya it's a joke with no punchline
I learned this week that the "lowest debt to GDP" is ONLY true if they put assets like CPP AS collateral. If you take those the debt to GDP without that adjustment they are near the highest debt to GDP
They count things like CDO's, default swaps, ABCP and other financial transactions as part of the GDP. Things that produce absolutely nothing.
Thankfully more Canadians like you are becoming educated - the level of deception by Freeland Anand and Trudeau is sick.
Tell your friends, they need to hear the truth.
Driving out business and investors with your capital gains tax 67%
theves
Retired from King & Bay after 30 years - the level of incompetence by this Liberal government is mind blowing.
Canadians need to comprehend that the debt interest is more than health care spending, and getting worse.
If this is not halted social programs will be in danger - permanently.
Economic growth has reversed since 2015. Productivity has cratered. Employment and wages will go down.
The cost of living will go up. There is no doubt.
Voting to support these policies will hurt current and future generations of Canadians, for decades.
when can we vote for you
@@GaryClark-qy5yy Not going to happen - my father was only 4 years older when he died. I hope that Canadians wake up and start to actually think and realize that choices have consequences. Not voting is a choice. Make an informed choice and realize that there is no such thing as free government programs. Collectively, we, the taxpayers, will ultimately absorb the cost, whether in personal and estate taxes or in reduced social programs in the future.
Another gaslighting Liberal. They should all be ashamed of themselves. This country is completely destroyed.
WTH the government just announced another $52 Billion in spending! Where the hell are they getting this money from? My bad more taxes.
Please just call an election so this twilight zone episode can end.
billions going missing ugg
Worse they're printing money
How about asking her about the procurement process, since billions have been wasted on outsourced contracts.
Where does this 2.9% inflation number come from. Everyone implicitly knows its radically higher than that. Look at groceries, car prices, gas. There is no way its anywhere close to 2.9%
Lol simples they do not include fuel or groceries in the calculation.
atleast 50% over last 3 years
Is she related to Freeland by any chance
yes they are both from the family of incompetence
Hindu
She is trying to be just like Freland. She changed jobs so many times I think she realized she had to be more like the Finance Minister in order to keep her job. Act smug and don’t say anything with word salads !
Anand is Freeland's wicked sister. To listen to them talk, they sound like Identical Liberal Twins.
Grow the economy hahahaha. Productivity wayyyyy down and sinking further. These social programs are NOT free. Nothing is free - we all pay.
It's like they have all taken a course on how to talk from Freeland
She drank all the kool-aid!!!!
Here we go again! Covid as an excuse.
0:37 "... lowest debt/gdp in the G7..." Ugh. Gross debt to gdp is what matters and we most certainly are not lowest. Check the IMF data yourself.
Trying to be responsible now (save your behinds), but have been completely irresponsible and completely foolish in past. My goodness, just because it's a taxpayers dollar shouldn't mean it has so little value to government(s).
government spending does not increase wealth it just adds inflation
Typical academic who lives in an ivory tower
What a delusion she has😂
The capital gains tax increase will hit the very businesses that might be interested in AI or investing in AI
What kind of concoction is the Trudeau Liberals feeding their cabinet ministers? Anand looks tranquilized and responds like some kind of robot,...it's like watching a sixties episode of the Avengers whenever someone gets drugged.
Aderal?
Is it just me or does she seem like a "zombie".
"GREAT!!!...now prove it with receipts!!!"
Libs care soooo much about Gen X and Millenials they're stealing their inheritance! 😂
The AAA credit rating won't last long at this rate lol 😢
Wait. 8:00 She said that this government had not taken a spending review until she got into her current position.... seriously 8-9 years and no review of spending?
Maybe Anand should use the lib slogan Sunny Ways...that might help !
😂😂😂
As a business development manager I went to the INNOVATEwest conference today in Vancouver. My personal impression from the conference is: there were more agencies and infrastructure projects for the startups than actual startups and investors. As an economist, I doubt that such redistribution could be effective.
Justin
I’m not prejudiced I hate every body!
But NO one as much as you !!!
I’m 100% to vote ☑️ Poilievre!!
Career Profs....the worst
I thought she is a Defends Minister? and She is like tape recorder keep repeating repeating same answer…and now after eight years you realize the affordability issue?
Just shut up
Your just paying back the money you would not give small business`s ,they were suing oyu to get that money but you put it in the budget...lmao !
Giving corporate welfare to AI companies is money laundering 😮
"I really like that question" so I'm not going to answer. I'll just spew out some gobbledegook and hope to confuse everything. My Mama always said life is like a box of chocolates. And stupid is as stupid does. That's all I have to say about that.
Talk about being out of touch to the reality that is happening right now.
a touch to much
I think they need a wake up call. I'm ready when you guys are.
Zero credibility
Third most favorable destination for investment? Where does that stat come from?
Low employment at 6.1......ok 🤣🤣
Lol yeah what a joke she even says it with a smile on her face.
There would be no poverty if you were not in government
Where is the increase in OAS ....lmao...oh oyu mean the money you gave to those 0ver 75 that are already in homes and pay it all back to the gov !
this time, the 9th time, it will work
nine lives
FJT!
OMG she’s sounding more and more like Freeland!!!! I used to think Anand was one of the ministers still respectable. Now I realize she’s as arrogant as, corrupt and dishonest as the rest. She was quiet so can across as something she’s not.
🤮🤮🤮🤮
Inflation? Look! A butterfly! _runs away_
😂
The only thing growing is the gas, rent, food prices.
"not the job of the Federal government" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Didn’t even get to capital gains tax that will drive capital flight.
We r fucked.
They've doubled their spend from the last gov't. They are not being responsible.
You will have nothing and be happy 🤬🤬🤬🤬
Can't believe they raise capital gains tax at a time that the economy is lacking investment.
Canada productivity is decreasing economy is declining and they stifle investment by increasing taxes?!.
And still the budget is not in balance!! Still can't pay, with all these tax increases..Trudeau is a crook
Great work Vassy. "Let me put some more facts on the table."
I don't believe a word she's saying
Anyone can get a AAA rating. They give credit to your pets 😂
The last word that describes this government is responsible. Let’s take inflation for since. Yes it may be below 3% now, but it has been well above that for the last several years. Inflation is compounding. Which means over the last four years compounding inflation is near 30%, the economic output of Canada has not increased by 30%. There is too much money in the system.
I think Canadians are now so burdened with the cost of this governments extreme social policy's they have no further appetite for this budget and it should not pass a vote in parliament. If it does pass it will break Canada up......
Is she on this planet? Did she just say unemployment is the lowest is the G7?
I am a millennial. My parents were planning to sell their cottage and give the proceeds to me and my 2 siblings to use as down payment. Now, my parents are labelled as ultra rich and they will be taxed to death. Me and my 2 siblings will never be able to buy a property. My whole family will vote Conservatives.
Why Canada is competing with G7 countries when it fall down below the G7 countries in all dimensions?
The country has lost confidence in this government .
Corporations are not investing enough to increase productivity so we decided to tax them more so they have less money to invest. Makes sense to me.
We have a right to have a quality of live,we pay our taxes our parents paid their taxes ,you are the government who have taken those taxes and spent it in any way you want!Given it away,taking it for yourselves,given it to your friends and family without being accountable
They spendnlike drunk sailor's
drunk sailors buy fun stuff not just hand it out to losers
What a load of crap, $1 billion dollars a week interest payments, budget adds $54 billion to our debt, small business’s are not receiving rebates, child care centers closing, Anand is full of herself.
She might be the most CLEVER Liberal. THAT is frightening
Vassy kapelos is the most credible journalist/TV host in Canada today i don't care how she votes that's her business but she is always able to drill the tough questions in a unbiased way
We're not going to have a AAA credit rating much longer with this Liberal government.
Your additional revenue is our tax dollars it is not yours always remember that!
Oh my the pandemic and where did it happen
Continue challenging these politicians Vassy. The mismanagement of Canada and its finances are legendary. Analogy=After gorging on chips and pop and blowing up to 200 kgs from 100 kgs, the government has decided to cut back to try get back to 180 kgs. Still not healthy, but better. Maybe one day, PM Trudeau will take an interest in government finances.
To claim that a $40 Billion deficit in a country with Canada’s population and GDP is fiscally responsible shows that she has no clue about economics.
well..she can dance anyway lol
I can’t wait until they are done. Please eastern Canada, for the love of this Country stop voting for them!
Vassey these are corrupt liberals you’re speaking to. Of course they are going to deny everything
She profited well from others pain. Pricey office at Lakeshore in Oakville.
Oh… she was a professor… but even better, at U of Ottawa. Strawman
Treasury Board President Anita Anand is either blind or stupid if she can defend her government's performance when more citizens are homeless and using food banks.
She is malevolent
Is Freeland her mentor?
The only thing she is responsible for is stealing our money
Inflation was already 2.8, and now 2.9
She says, "AI" like she doesn't know what it is, but she's been told to say it. Too funny 😂
Parallel universe exists
She said nothing ..no proof, nothing
Freeland got a parrot?
