Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told a sparse crowd at the UN summit on Sunday that Canada is thriving because of his investments in a housing strategy and a food plan for school children, omitting the fact that the reason he’s invested in these crises, after being in power for 9 years, is because his policies created them.
The Prime Minister made his remarks in New York City during the 79th United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), which runs from September 22 to 25, 2024.
“As a government we are stepping up,” he told the audience on Sunday.
Trudeau pointed to the $10-a-day child car policy, a national food plan for students whose families are too broke to feed them, and an “ambitious housing plan” to address the housing shortage that his mass immigration policies have created.
“All while fighting climate change,” he said, ignoring the fact that his carbon tax has made everything more expensive, and the majority of Canadians want it scrapped.
In fact, the Trudeau government has broken the economy so badly that over half of Canadians say they have considered eating expired food to save on grocery bills. Food bank use is up, and affordability is down. Way down.
Trudeau’s agenda in New York includes him co-hosting a meeting with Haiti’s acting Prime Minister to discuss the ongoing crisis in Haiti and rally international support.
He’s also set to appear on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” during his visit, where he’s sure to get a number of softball questions and score easy laughs by mocking Donald Trump.
