Justine is desperate, flailing, and in total freefall. His woke policies and reckless spending are destroying our country. So, his bought and paid for media attack dogs are ready to do his dirty work.

Instead of focusing on the real issues hurting our country, they would rather launch baseless attacks against Pierre Poilievre and label common sense Canadians as "far-right extremists."

They're terrified Trudeau's time in office is coming to an end. And they're terrified their meal ticket is going to be taken away.

The Canadian Medical Association asserts the Liberals' proposed changes to capital gains taxation will put doctors' retirement savings in jeopardy,

The increase in the so-called inclusion rate would apply to capital gains above $250,000 for individuals, and all capital gains realized by corporations.

Since doctors typically incorporate their medical practices and invest for retirement inside their corporations, the association points out its members will now face a higher inclusion rate on all capital gains they earn, including on retirement investments.

Trudeau is good at making promises, but terrible at delivering on them.

Trudeau was in Oakville, Ont. promoting his government's new idea to review federal land holdings "to rapidly identify sites where new homes can be built." That new promise, though, is an old one that he's made time and again since the 2015 election campaign.

Ever since he was elected, Trudeau has claimed building more homes, and affordable homes, was a top priority for his government and instead, the opposite has happened.

The average price of a home in 2015, according to the Canadian Real Estate Association, was just about $400,000. That doubled to an average price of $800,000 in early 2022 before falling back down to around $700,000 now.

Rent prices have also gone up by about 50% in that time, according to Statistics Canada.

The Trudeau government is good at announcing they will do something, but they fail on the follow-through time and again – and it's not just housing.

The dental plan with no dentists
The government has been promoting their so-called national dental plan for seniors.

"This is going to make a huge difference," Trudeau said of the program last month in Calgary.

It would make a huge difference if Trudeau could deliver, but his plan has been poorly executed with most dentists declining to take part in the program and many seniors who registered unable to find care.

On issue after issue, Trudeau fails to deliver
SAFE SUPPLY: Under the Trudeau government, certain areas of the country have either embraced or had so-called "safe supply" thrust upon them. These programs provide free drugs to addicts but too often the drugs are then sold on the street for addicts to purchase fentanyl. The resold opioid pills are creating new addicts. Despite mounting evidence of the negative impacts, the Trudeau government refuses to change course.

CRIME: The crime severity index has risen dramatically under Justin Trudeau, more worrisome is the violent crime severity index tracked by Statistics Canada, which has risen by 30% since Trudeau took office. Auto thefts, a particular scourge in the Toronto area, have risen by as much as 500% over the last several years with no tangible response from the government.

MIDDLE CLASS: Trudeau was elected promising to work for "the middle class and those working hard to join it." Trudeau even had a minister for "middle-class prosperity." He's not only gotten rid of that ministry, he's working hard to get rid of the middle class as home ownership becomes a pipe dream, wages stagnate and productivity tumbles.

HOUSING: Trudeau has promised to build 3.9 million homes over the next seven years to solve the housing crisis. This amounts to 552,857 new homes per year, or more than double what the country is currently building annually. It amounts to a new home every two minutes for seven years straight. Perhaps Trudeau will build the homes among the two billion trees he promised to plant but never delivered on?

IMMIGRATION: The Trudeau government has somehow done the unthinkable and killed off the Canadian consensus on immigration. They not only ramped up the annual intake for permanent residents from around 275,000 per year to 500,000 per year, they have also dramatically increased the number of temporary residents – foreign workers and international students – to more than 900,000 in a year. In a nine-month period, Canada added more than one million people to its population. Trudeau said recently that we are bringing in more people than we can absorb, but he isn't slowing down the rapid intake of newcomers, which is impacting housing, health-care access and other features.

FOREIGN RELATIONS: Trudeau was elected with a slogan of "Canada is back" even though we never left the international stage under the Harper years. Nearly nine years later, we have strained relations with growing economic powerhouses like India and China and we have a diminished presence and stature in Washington. Our allies in NATO and other organizations don't take Canada seriously like they used to and our voice has been reduced to a whisper.

Justine calls his Liberal Party a movement and that movement is centered around him. Well, seventy percent of Canadians want the movement centered around him gone.

In two of the latest polls, including one for the proggy Toronto Star, Justine was at 23 percent and the Conservatives at 44 percent. How the hell does Jagmeet Singh sleep at night propping up the Justine movement that most of us want gone.
