• Poll shows cost of living now most important voting issue
• ‘Inflation kills governments,’ housing expert Moffatt says

 

More than half of Canadians say their personal finances are worse today than in 2015, when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was elected on a promise to help the middle class and those aspiring to join it.

A surge of inflation, and the interest-rate hikes meant to quell it, have squeezed heavily indebted Canadians, who also said the high cost of living is the most important issue affecting how they intend to vote.

Some 53% said their personal finances are worse now than eight years ago, according to the poll conducted by Nanos Research for Bloomberg News, while 24% said they were better off and 21% said there had been no change.

Inflation Spike Leaves Lasting Damage in Canada

Prices have jumped at least 10% beyond their pre-pandemic trend

Those 35 to 54 years old were most likely to feel the financial blues — 61% said they’re now worse off.

If an election were held today, some 45% of Canadians said the cost of living – including housing, groceries and energy bills – would be the most important matter influencing their vote. The environment, at 14%, and health care, at 12%, are next on the list.

 

There's just no recovering from that for trudeau.

Even if he manages to get inflation down to 2 percent by the end of the year - that just means prices wont' go UP more than 2 percent it's not going to bring them down. It's still going to be too expensive to live.

And the fact is with his immigration policy vs the number of homes we're building rents and homes are still going to go up or at least stay as high as possible which most people can't afford.

Nice scary headline but where is there any relevance to Trudeau?

Why do facts scare you?

[herbie]

They don't. You should learn what facts are.

Polling and statistics are just too hard for you, start simple by learning what facts are.

So why say they do? Are the facts stated beyond your comprehension?

Trudeau is directly responsible for the lions share of our inflation/interest rate,  Trudeau is responsible for the economic climate of our country including taxes such as carbon tax which is a tax on everything. Trudeau has been promising since 2015 to 'solve the housing crisis' - it's never been worse and his immigraiton policy plays a large role in that.

Is that enough? Did you need more? There's more if you need it.

It's a fact that people are reporting that.  Statistics tend to be factual as well.

Not sure you realize what you're saying.

Those are the facts in the poll. It would be the same if you polled from 2010 instead of 2015. So f*cking obvious there's no need to poll.
The poll shows nothing whatsoever to do with Trudeau other to use that other to imply his responsibility like a childish meme, for the fools that think because two things happened around the same time so they must be connected.

Which CdnFox loves to post, taking over reason10 spot as top flooder. Possibly trying for a resume for a job at the National Post? Flood every front page with anti-Trudeau, anti-Liberal, belittle anything Canadian articles?

Score another Darwin Award for those who can't distinguish between editorial and propaganda from news or fact.

Well that's some serious bullshit.  Most of the time people's finances get BETTER over time, not worse. The majority of people likely would have said they were better off going into 2015 vs 2010, which was right at the end of the recession. Wages had gone up, there were more jobs, inflation was lower than wage increases, people were better off.

So no.

"Trudeau is responsible for these things.  These things are not going well. Why would people think trudeau is involved??!?"

It would help your credibility of you weren't being deliberately stupid.  It is his area of responsibility.  People expect the gov't to create a fertile ground for the economy to grow, that's one of it's jobs. if the economy is tanking the gov't DOES have to explain itself.  It might have a good reason for it - but it IS within it's responsibility and it does have to answer for it.

Pretending the gov't has NOTHING to do with the economy is just childish.

Yes - it's absolutely insane that I would post a story about the Canadian Prime Minister and Canadian economy in a canadian politcs forum.     You never start topics, why don't you post all the stories that come out about Trudeau's successes and good things he's doing as well if you want to see more of that. Oh wait -  i guess you did  

I'll be happy to start flooding the place with trudeau-positive articles if the day comes when he ever does something positive. It's not my fault your hero turned out to be such a dud - literally the worst prime minister in history.

That would be a completely different polling question all together FFS!  As usual you can't even argue the point, so you simply make up an entirely different point and argue that. Deflection, whataboutism. and fallacy. Nothing but, every time.

Plus the insistence that because something happened during the time when so and so was there, they had something to do with the cause. And insist even louder that ir does.

Grow up and learn to talk you bloody dimwits.
