I am sure that if asked the low income families would rather spend that $2000 on other things like food and clothing, rather than being forced to go camping. It will be interesting to see the qualifying criteria, lets hop eit is less discriminatory than the summer student work grant.
Nothing more than another 150 million added to to the already 10's of billions promised (90% of which is going to non Canadian nations ?!). All going to the deficit, yet not a single word mentioned for how he plans on paying any of the debt or event the staggering interest. Know why? because he doesn't plan on repaying it, socialist parties never do, just tax and spend. Its easy to promise and spend other people hard earned money!
Just think what a 60+ billion dollars could have done for Canadians, like drinking water and decent living conditions and education for indigenous peoples, land preservation, innovation for companies/industry to reduce waste and land fill instead of thinking a tax will control mother nature. Benefits for veterans, job and training programs; hell, you could even provide free tuition for students with that much cash, I could go on all day listing items that would truly benefit the people of this land.
All smoke and mirrors and vote buying at the expense of the hard working tax payer. but that's OK, there will be tax invented to fix that too I imagine
That's the end of my rant.. now back to canoeing while I can still afford it.
