Only idiot parasites would support this Liberal budget. They continue to get money for nothing while the rest of us pay for it. We need elections every year to stop this bullshit.

The banker was supposed to be better with the numbers than the drama teacher, but…

Carney just released his first budget and let’s just say, the new boss seems a lot like the old boss.

Every dollar you pay in federal sales tax this year will go to paying interest on the Carney government’s credit card.

We read through the entire 500-page budget and this week’s Taxpayer Waste Watch breaks down everything you need to know about Budget 2025.

Enjoy.

Carney’s cure for Canada’s debt problem: More debt!

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Budget 2025 is all about more borrowing and more money wasted on debt interest charges, with no end in sight.

Ottawa’s spending increases by $38 billion this year, bringing the tab to $581 billion. The government plans to borrow $80 billion just this year. Carney has zero plan to balance the budget.

And the federal debt is already staggering. It will reach $1.35 trillion by the end of 2025.

The banker was supposed to be better with the numbers than the drama teacher. But the banker plans to rack up more debt.

Carney plans to add $324 billion to the debt by 2030. For comparison, former prime minister Justin Trudeau planned to add $154 billion to the debt over those same years.

And here’s the real kicker: interest charges alone will cost taxpayers like you $1 billion every week.

Or think about it this way the next time you’re standing in the check-out line:

Every dollar you pay in federal sales tax will go to pay interest on the debt.

Don’t buy the government’s spin on saving money.

The Carney government wrote Budget 2025 in a way to try to convince you that it will save about $60 billion over five years.

But here are the numbers:

Last year the government spent $543 billion.

This year the government will spend $581 billion.

The government will spend $644 billion by 2030.


Does that look like saving money to you?
Where your money really went in Budget 2025

We dug through Budget 2025 to see what the feds are quietly spending your money on and the cost of every needless program.

Carney claimed the government would cut waste.

Well, you be the judge.

Here’s some ways the government will spend your cash through Budget 2025:

  • $395 million to the department of Canadian Heritage for the arts and a journalism slush fund
  • $100 million for the FIFA soccer world cup
  • $150 million more to the CBC
  • $39 million on the gun ban and confiscation
  • $40 million for Youth Climate Corps
  • $528 million for women and gender equality
Carney doubles down on industrial carbon tax

You know Carney didn’t scrap all carbon taxes.

Budget 2025 commits to “strengthening” the industrial carbon tax and “setting a multi-decade industrial carbon price trajectory that targets net zero by 2050.”

Carney’s hidden carbon tax will make it harder for Canadian businesses to compete and will push Canadian entrepreneurs to set up shop south of the border.

But don’t worry folks, Budget 2025 claims this hidden carbon tax will have “negligible impacts on affordability for Canadians.”

Do you believe that? Neither do we.

Carbon taxes on refineries make gas more expensive, carbon taxes on utilities make home heating more expensive and carbon taxes on fertilizer plants increase costs for farmers and that makes groceries more expensive.

Carney’s hidden carbon tax on Canadian businesses is the worst of all worlds: Higher prices for you and fewer jobs for Canadians.
