Lets look at the Facts why is Canada in Last Place. Trudeau is the Problem!

Klaluse: Interesting choice of products to compare to GDP. Why not wheat or canola? And have done the exercise you want me to do for all other countries or even the G7 nations? If not, how can you say we are worse off than other countries without doing a comparative analysis?

Instead consider the following from Kevin Milligan, University of British Columbia


"Government’s share of GDP has shrunk"

“Questions about the ultimate size and role of government lingered in the background in 2015 policy debates ranging from pensions to childcare to infrastructure. The answer will depend on one’s views on the competence and efficiency of government actions over different kinds of economic activity. But the debate should be informed by fact—and the fact is that government’s share of economic output has shrunk over the last 20 years.

You can do all countries. I'm not saying ones better than the other. I picked consumer Staples. Inflation is way hogher than fake news will tell you, cost of everything going up wages aren't which drops standard of living.


43% of people in Vancouver can't afford the houses they are living in.


Add 1+2.

All the "red hot" growth in Canada has been from real estate and government spending... The first will crash thr economy the second is going to put our children's children in the poor house.



Compare to the US numbers for the past 6 months that everybody in the media wants to so desperately run down...


3% growth from real estate and government or 3% from hiring factory orders and increased production. You pick.


And now I'm not saying the USA is great they are in a major bubble with their stock market and QE but we are worse off right now and actually need to take heed.

Wow dmlr

This is for you and your lovely liberal party that fills their pockets on the backs of hard working Canadians.

Yea it’s called planning ahead and when we had another Trudeau you had to really plan ahead.

I can see the Paul Martin and Steven Harper part of the chart dml, but what happens when Justin shows up?

It only goes to 2014 when Canada was considered a leader in responsible budgets and we were back down to around 38% tax.
