Trudeau has remained totally silent as gas, groceries, and housing prices skyrocket due to insane levels of inflation following nearly two years of lockdowns and mandates.
Canada’s inflation rate hit a near-record high in October, 2021, rising to 4.4 per cent — the highest it has been in 17 years.
According to Global Petrol Prices, gasoline in Canada has risen to a $1.64 per litre average between August and November 2021.
Likewise, the average home price has risen to $686,650, with prices in Ontario and BC rising to $887,290 and $913,471.
To put that in perspective, the average Ontarian earns $55,524 per year — only $42,854 after paying 22.8 per cent in income tax.
Assuming that a down payment on a house will be roughly 10 per cent, it would take the average Ontarian over two years to save for a down payment. And that’s only if they can manage to save every penny they earn by living with their parents and not spending any money on food, rent, utilities, transportation, or any luxury which makes life more bearable in the Great White North.
Food prices are also on the rise. According to Sylvian Charlebois, senior director of the Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University in Halifax, while on average food prices have only risen by 5 per cent this year, some prices have risen well over 20 per cent in under 12 months.
Specifically, the cost of certain beef prices has risen by over 50 per cent, which could soon make essential protein a luxury for those on tight budgets.
For example, the price of bacon reached an all-time high in August when it reached $8.24 for a 500-gram package, easily shattering the previously insurmountable $8.00 mark.
So, what has Trudeau been doing while our economy comes crashing down and people face the genuine threat of poverty, never owning a home, not being able to buy meat, and not being able to commute to work?
Why, he’s been cozying up to globalists at the UN, promising to destroy all the industries we need to stop this out-of-control train wreck — all for the sake of saving the world from climate change, of course.

“What is even better than pricing emissions is ensuring that they never happen in the first place,” Trudeau said while speaking to a crowd of globalists in Glasgow for the COP26 summit.
“Which brings me to my next major commitment, we’ll cap oil and gas sector emissions today and ensure they decrease tomorrow at a pace and scale needed to reach net-zero by 2050.”
“That’s no small task for a major oil and gas producing country,” Trudeau continued.
“It’s a big step; that’s absolutely necessary.”
That’s right. Rather than helping to make gas more affordable, Trudeau plans on taking steps to prevent us from expanding our industry and all but outright promises to destroy it.
Of course, the need for oil and gas won’t disappear. Instead, we’ll likely end up buying it from other countries at significantly higher prices than if we extracted it here, ultimately leading to even higher prices to ensure Canadians never return to a time when we truly had freedom of movement.
And don’t think that this climate agenda will stop with one of our biggest money-making industries.
Environmentalists have long argued that reducing the number of livestock we produce is necessary because cow farts are killing the planet or something.
As Trudeau seems hellbent on walking the green path, it’s likely only a matter of time before carbon taxes are applied to livestock producers, too, which will consequently increase the price of already unaffordable beef products.
In other words, things are probably going to get worse, much worse.
