I’m old enough to remember when this would have been the biggest story of the day. But the Liberals did somehow manage to top it.
Financial Post- Federal government blew through fiscal guardrail to post $61.9-billion deficit, economic update shows
The federal government broke its key fiscal guardrail and posted a deficit of $61.9 billion for the 2023-2024 fiscal year, according to the fall economic statement released on Monday, blowing past the $40.1 billion level at which it promised to keep the deficit.
I’m not feeling the vibe yet! Anyone else?
Cloverdale Langley City byelection results incomming.
Maybe they should quit sending those Uke nazis our tax dollars.
How much do you think they actually sent?
Joke
Too much, $1 is $2 dollars too much to support nazis!
Gin
FYI the Nazis were destroyed in 1945.
I guess you haven’t heard of Ukraine’s Azov Brigade:
Azov’s links to and associations with far-right and quasi-fascist individuals and Nazi symbols has been well documented in Western media. The original founder of the paramilitary group, Andriy Biletsky, wrote that “the historic mission of our nation in this critical moment is to lead the White Races of the world in a final crusade for their survival. A crusade against the Semite-led Untermenschen.”

Well Lupus, by your logic, the Russians are a bunch of Nazis. Russia signed a pact with Hitler and invaded Poland in 1939, thus starting WW2.
I link to an article written by somebody else about the Azov Brigade and somehow that becomes my logic about the evil WW2 Nazi-Soviet pact.
That’s quite a leap.
Lupus
You made the rule. Azov’s are Nazis because of something in WW2.
By your logic Russians are also Nazis, due to their support of Hitler in starting WW2.
Two armies worth of Ukrainians were raised by the Soviets to fight the Nazis. that’s a lot more than the brigade raised by the Nazis. Even accounting for the smaller size of Soviet WWII divisions and armies, that is still about 25 times more than What the Nazis raised. Ukrainians are not Nazis.
No they should send them as many as they can spare so we don’t have to spend that fighting Russia tomorrow. There’s never been a better investment of Canadian or American tax dollars in my life than helping Ukraine grind Russia.
You’ve fallen for the Eurotrash propaganda.
It’s not an invasion of Europe, Dufus.
But since you feel so strongly, go fly there, pick up a weapon and LARP with their Nazi army. You can join the Million that preceded you.
Won’t happen; the blog world is full of keyboard warriors pretending to be tough guys and talking war trash.
.
Ukraine is in Europe, so this is an invasion of Europe.
Well back in the day, we were going to fight them in Germany. Now we’re going to fight them in Ukraine. Very devious Russian strategy to suck NATO all the way East to Ukraine.
I don’t agree with UnMe often, but he is write on this.
The ignorance I am seeing on this thread is astounding. The un one, lulu, joe, what the hell is wrong with these people?
Bots old boy, designed to wear you down.
Don’t feed the trolls.
VOWG, if you have a specific beef or beefs why don’t you out with that instead of just tossing out some general insult-complaint.
We ignoramuses surely would benefit from your breadth of knowledge that you keep so carefully hidden.
Actually, methinks there’s no there there.
Lulu, you really are to stupid to try and converse with.
Considering you almost never add anything of substance to any thread or discussion your inability to converse doesn’t surprise me.
If the Ukrainians are Nazis, and Putin is literally Hitler, then something damned odd is clearly afoot. Do you think it’s possible that patriotic Ukrainians who, on very good grounds, hold grudges against the Russians, have chosen to adopt the symbolism of the people who saved them from Russians? And that they do so without endorsing, or indeed even attempting to understand, the original meaning of those symbols? Nah, that’s crazy talk. It’s Nazis all the way down, clearly.
And my next dance troupe will now be called “Damned Odd Afoot”.
Trudeau will pull a Hitler and take Canada down with him. After all we’re not worthy of his vision.
*sigh*
The more I read that the more it rings true. And the more worried I get.
PM Disaster has no love for a country that doesn’t support him so why wouldn’t he raze it if he could?
If the corrupt leeches in the NDP would do their job and worry less about their pensions and more about the country we’d have been through with this evil WEF scumbag ages ago.

Shocked that a Liberal finance minister would walk away from a trifling 60+ billion deficit. After all our most vulnerable Lamprey Canadians need their gibs.
Today defined the word “bathetic.”
Not believing for a second the real number is 62.
Dollars to donuts there’s a lot more red ink going unreported.
The Liebranos and their joined at the hip comrades in crime Dippers, should, at a minimum, be publicly pilloried for their treason.
family of 4 and pop. of 40M…$6200.00 ea. fam.
It’s absolutely ridiculous: they spent like drunken sailors and went waay over the target, Finance mnstr resigns with a hissy fit hrs before delivering finance report and Dear PM thinks of prorogation vs resignation?!? All the slave media is like ‘Oh poor he, let him think/it’s sad, tune the applause for Christia/such a great job…’. WTF?!? No no no, Governor should have summoned the idiot right away and throw him out! But we all know that the Governor is a Blackie fan.
So they went over the target of $40 bill with 50%, $20 bill over!!! Would a CEO in private sector still be hired another single effing day if something like this would happen?!?
With some 40 years in the RCN, I have spent like a drunken sailor many a time. But my spending always stopped when I was out of my own money. I am insulted that you lower drinking sailors to the level of politicians.
This is much more Hunter Biden style, probably coke and hookers. How much could that little faggot drink anyway, eh?
Exactly. Sick and tired of drunken sailors being compared to politicians spending other people’s money.
When drunken sailors run out of money, they stop spending. Nobody lends a drunken sailor money.
All together now: “What do we lend to a drunken sailor, what do we lend to a drunken sailor…”
I think the resigning of trough feeders and debt sculptures was deliberate to deflect from the post-nation’s deficit.
But who gives a flying leap when they just print money out of thin air. The printing presses just keep spinning. Kabuki Theatre.
No tears here for Freeland. She supported Trudeau in every vile endeavor, including the covid tyranny and gleefully frozen bank accounts. She did not stand up for Jody Wilson Raybould.
Certainly Trudeau, true to form, exploited her as a woman but she somehow thought she would end up on top.
Dominic LeBlanc is now finance minister.
If you thought the previous bunch looted the country, this guy will surpass them all.
If Dom learned anything from ol Romeo, he’ll be stealing with both hands.
Astute comment.
The biggest joke is what happens when a new government takes over and sees the real mess.
Interesting times.
LOL
I’ll forgive PP not doing any of the things he’s promising {and that’s a lot), if the only thing he ever does is launch a full criminal forensic audit of the Turd’s government. No stone unturned. And proper investigations, trials, convictions and sentences. What’s happened the last 9 miserable years should never be allowed to happen again. They’ve been deliberately destroying the country but will plausibly deny because of their “sincere” efforts of working in our best interest. But the problem is that their vision of what’s in our best interest means poverty and misery for all but them and their elitist, megalomaniac, friend.
And proper investigations, trials, convictions and sentences.
I’m more than willing to forego all of that & move directly to the hangings.
Ha, 9 years, this has been going on all my life.
Yes it has …… bit by bit, little by little , and then suddenly everyone starts to notice, and feels powerless.
Never feeling responsible, emboldened , or demanding the respect for the common values we where raised under.
Either at home, at school, or the workplace.
Now your lucky if you get them at home even.
You might as well forget it when it comes to school, or the workplace, today .
And it matters.
The red queen trumps the pastel blue boy.
Pictures are always worth a 1000 words.
That said…don’t forget who laughed while freezing bank accounts.
2025 will be ‘interesting’ as a curse.
Hold fast.
No sympathy for the wicked Nazi garden gnome! Just enjoying our enemies destroy themselves in front of the world, shattering the facade of the Feminist-in-chief.
It’s all up to Meethead and his pensionable time. That’s more important than the Canadian nation and its failing economy.
By the way, he is also looking at electoral defeat in his riding, so his own selfish needs come first, collecting his taxpayer cheque as long as possible. Complete disdain for the normies out there, including foolish union members.
I see you fall into the camp of “everyone I don’t like is a Nazi”.
They exceeded the guard rail, moistly.
Wins for best comment
This item accounts for a lot of the exploding borrowing: “…future payments to compensate First Nations children and families who faced discrimination under the First Nations Child and Family Services program and under Jordan’s principle. The government previously set aside nearly $23.3 billion for compensation.”
It’s only the beginning. Federal courts have basically told Ottawa that they had better pay off whatever aboriginal claims are made, for whatever the reason, to hell with the cost.
Time to shut down the corrupt reservation financial black hole and bring the indians into the rest of society. The self-imposed indian apartheid scheme hasn’t worked in over a century and it’s bankrupting the system and producers that fund it.
mhb23re
A guardrail is 40 billion for a country with a population of 40 million?
Judas Priest.
That’s rope-knot-tree time.
50% more than that seems treasonous.
But I’m not an Intellectual.
As the Death Cult turns.
I wonder what their owner, Klaus anal Schwab has to say about his cabinet bickering in public like this.
Turdhole still has the loyalty of some other WEF cultists, the creepy sociopath Karina Gould for instance.
Of course the man who keeps Dear Leader in power, none other than the feckless pension whore and WEF “young leader” Jagderp ( Mazerati ) Turbonhole, he is still the most loyal Juthtin fart catcher in the Commons, and a globalist comrade.
Its like watching a criminal terrorist organization as a reality show.
Other than Peeair the Turdhole or the Jean Crouton gang has there ever been a more degenerate malicious narcissistic tyrant ruling over this corrupt northern death cult…?
The Turdhole WEF Party isnt going anywhere imo… get ready to be attacked with more anti human anti Canadian terrorism disguised as, “sunny ways”.
Unfortunately, this grotesque pile of shit masquerading as a “Government” will continue until the bitter flatulent end.
Jughead Singh a long wants his gold plated MP pension because that fits nicely with the Rolex and Maserati, our working man labour leader needs to look good!
But this is politics and Justin is very nasty and spiteful…
It would be hilarious if prime minister blackface called an election just days before Singh is pensionable!
The communist party of China has already stuffed Justin’s pockets with cash, so he’s sitting pretty…
He’s just following the example of 5-government pensions Chow
There’s a silver lining to Blackie’s Prorogue gambit. Sure, he stays in government, but, he’s punting the ball essentially.
All legislation on the order paper DIES. Yeah, that means the pre-crime bill and the “child rights” and “hate” bills also die and go away. So does Gruber’s new legislation.
That’s good news for all of us, and, when parliament resumes next year, Blackie is the lamest of lame ducks. He won’t resign, too arrogant and self-centered to admit defeat.
Bank on proroguing tomorrow.
Thanks Dan. You brought the only really good cheer to this wretched financial fiasco if you’re correct, and it males sense.
The reason the $62B deficit caused by Lieberal incompetence isn’t the top news story, is the loyal Presstitutes are keeping it out of the spotlight. If this was under the CPC watch, all of today’s events would be cried out constantly.
$62 effing billion! Can you imagine the inflation we would have if fairy boy hadn’t deliberately crashed the economy at the same time?
This incompetent shrew was in charge of our finances and quits before she had to explain publicly she overspent the budget by 50%, thereby setting her up for a federal libtrash leadership run. Have I got that right? And earnest, “caring” canuck liberals would vote for her, right?
Is there any creature on earth more stupid than a canadian leftist voter?
mhb23re
A regular canadian voter……
Am I on drugs or did that biotch do the right thing by resigning? Still I remember her having a public climax when she announced that she had frozen the bank accounts of the truck protest supporters. She looked so proud of herself then.
