Secret RCMP report warns Canadians may revolt once they realize how broke they are



A secret RCMP report is warning the federal government that Canada may descend into civil unrest once citizens realize the hopelessness of their economic situation.

"The coming period of recession will ... accelerate the decline in living standards that the younger generations have already witnessed compared to earlier generations," reads the report, entitled Whole-of-Government Five-Year Trends for Canada.

"For example, many Canadians under 35 are unlikely ever to be able to buy a place to live," it adds.

The report, labelled secret, is intended as a piece of "special operational information" to be distributed only within the RCMP and among "decision-makers" in the federal government.

A heavily redacted version was made public as a result of an access to information request filed by Matt Malone, an assistant professor of law at British Columbia's Thompson Rivers University, and an expert in government secrecy.

The NDP-Liberal coalition just voted NO to spiking the hike.

They're moving forward with their plan to hike the carbon tax by 23% on April 1st.

Trudeau's controversial vacation to Jamaica last Christmas cost Canadian taxpayers far more than his trip to the same destination a year earlier.

According to the government's answer to questions posed by Conservative House Leader Andrew Scheer, tabled this week, Trudeau's 10-day vacation with his family to Prospect Estate near Ocho Rios cost taxpayers $230,442, a 42 per cent increase over the $162,000 cost of a similar trip over the Christmas holidays in 2022-23.

Obviously the pending increase in his carbon tax hasn't incentivized him to lower his C02 emissions.

Justine and his NDP coalition partners just voted down the Conservative non-confidence motion which would have triggered an election.

They want to save their jobs while taking more of our money by hiking the carbon tax by twenty three percent.

The Trudeau Liberal government that has become increasingly tone deaf to the day-to-day concerns and economic struggles of Canadians, and has presided over numerous financial scandals which suggest incompetence at best and corruption at worst.

All this while lecturing Canadians that whenever the Trudeau government screws up, it's somehow a learning moment for all Canadians who didn't screw up, instead of for the people who actually screwed up and who, inexplicably, kept their jobs.

Justine's party could be reduced to third place.

Justine is plowing ahead and hiking his carbon tax by 23% on Monday, April 1st.

Gas, groceries, and heat, all getting more expensive. These are necessities, not luxuries.

And the NDP is happy to back him up.

ustin Trudeau will soon make more than $400,000 a year as his pay and the compensation for other federal politicians are set to increase April 1. Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre will also see an increase in his base pay as an MP and top up as opposition leader, the latter of which will go to $96,800, bringing him to $299,900 a year

The numbers don't lie, because after 8 years, Trudeau's government has:

Doubled rent payments, mortgage payments, and down payments.
Fuelled sky-high interest rates with inflationary deficits.
And driven a record number of Canadians to food banks every month.
Despite all this, Trudeau continues his reckless taxing and spending spree. This year alone, a staggering $46.5 BILLION will go towards servicing his growing debt.

According to the study, from 2014 to 2021 (the latest year of available data), business investment per worker in Canada (adjusted for inflation) declined by 20 per cent, from $18,363 to $14,687. Business investment—which includes spending on equipment, machinery, factories and new technologies (but excludes residential homebuilding)—is vital to helping make Canadian workers more productive, said the report.

Compared to the United States, Canada performed even worse.

"During that same time period (2014 to 2021), business investment per worker (adjusted for inflation, in Canadian dollars) increased from $23,333 to $26,751 in the U.S. Consequently, business investment per worker in Canada equaled 78.7 per cent of the rate in the U.S. in 2014 compared to only 54.9 per cent in 2021," said the Fraser Institute.

Liberal budget will kill economic growth

Having identified low productivity and innovation as Canada's "Achilles heel" when it comes to economic growth in its 2022 federal budget, the Trudeau government did almost everything possible to undermine both in its 2024 budget released on Tuesday.

Two years ago in her budget speech, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland warned that Canada is a laggard in the single most important measure that determines the standard of living for Canadians — productivity.


Her budget said that if nothing changes, Canada will have the lowest productivity — defined as annual growth in real Gross Domestic Product per capita — from now until 2060, among the 38 developed nations belonging to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development.

Low productivity means slow economic growth and, as Freehand warned in 2022: "We are falling behind when it comes to economic productivity. Productivity matters because it is what guarantees the dream of every parent — that our children will be more prosperous than we are."

Low productivity doesn't mean Canadian workers are lazy. It means they're not being given the tools they need to work smarter and more efficiently, because of a lack of business confidence and private sector investment in technological innovation in Canada.

Despite these valid concerns raised by Freeland in her 2022 budget, the major themes she unveiled in the Liberals' 2024 budget —  higher spending, higher deficits, higher debt, higher capital gains taxes  — are all sure-fire ways to reduce business confidence in the economy, which discourages private sector investment aimed at increasing productivity and innovation.

The Trudeau government — bizarrely — appears to believe that the more it intervenes in the economy, the more it attempts to pick winners and losers in the private sector, the more the Canadian economy will improve.

In fact, this is the exact opposite of what will happen, a fact the Liberals, in their desperate desire to improve their dismal polling numbers before next year's federal election, are simply ignoring as they increasingly attempt to bribe taxpayers with their own money.

In fairness to the Trudeau government, the problem of low productivity in Canada goes back decades. It's an issue it inherited rather than created.

But what is inexplicable is the Liberals' reckless and deliberate pursuit of policies they know full well will undermine the standard of living for Canadian families.

Deputy prime minister and finance minister Chrystia Freeland wrote a book called Plutocrats. Trudeau's plan is to tax the capital gains of Canadian plutocrats and transfer the funds to the plutocrats running the auto industry. Make plutocrats prog allies and they are not evil anymore.

A new poll suggests the Liberals have not won over voters with their latest budget.

Just shy of half the respondents to Leger's latest survey said they had a negative opinion of the federal budget, which was presented last Tuesday.

Only 21 per cent said they had a positive opinion, and one-third of respondents said they didn't know or preferred not to answer.

Leger's poll of 1,522 Canadians last weekend can't be assigned a margin of error because online surveys are not considered truly random samples.
