Printing money across developed countries created inflation. Justine wants to fight inflation with the same shit that caused it. Progs are nuts.


Dems have done the exact same horse shit here.

I saw on the news that our prime minister is proposing more spending to help Canadians cope with inflation.

Gasoline is cheaper in Canada, but nothing else is.


If you can fill up your tank and multiple jerry cans for a super extended drive away from any population centres, it will be the best and cheapest investment you've ever made.

Where would we go?

Pierre Pollivere correctly described what Trudeau will do as pouring gasoline on a roaring fire.

The chairman and CEO of energy company Chevron has warned Americans to brace for price increases in natural gas this winter.



CEO Mike Wirth made the comments in an interview with CNN on Sept. 13 in which he warned consumers that "there's certainly a risk that costs will go up" when it comes to natural gas.



"Prices already are very high relative to history and relative to the rest of the world. We're already seeing this impact being felt in the European economy and I do think it's likely that Europe goes into a recession," Wirth said.

We heat our home with natural gas......our electricity is powered by a natural gas plant.

That isn't even up for debate.

You might want to extra insulate your unnecessary pipes this winter and drain them before the freeze happens.... then start getting it from one main tap.
Blahhhhhh...

Where I live, they're not allowed to shut off heat to an occupied home in the winter.

If the prices get too high and the occupant can't pay, the municipality assumes the cost.

I was at the grocery store a couple days ago and got a package of sliced cheese. I was happy to see it was still the same price and the same number of slices. Later on I was making a burger and got a slice to put on top and that's when I noticed it was much thinner than it used to be. So thin that it started melting 30 seconds after putting it on the burger in the frying pan when it used to take a good two minutes before it started melting.



There's a lot of inflation we're being hit with that we're probably not even noticing.

I don't buy cheese slices, but I've noticed deceptive packaging in products as a result of inflation.

It's called shrinkflation.



It has increased exponentially.



You have to shop by weight (kilos or grams) or you're paying through the nose.
Blahhhhhh...
