🇨🇦 Carney's deficit doubled since Trudeau left — now Poilievre demands damage control

Mark Carney inherited a projected $31 billion deficit for 2026-27 from the Trudeau regime. His first budget doubled it to $65 billion. Now Poilievre is demanding he cap spending at the original figure by axing a $60–90 billion high-speed rail vanity project and the endless gun buyback boondoggle. Carney's response? More debt, more GST gimmicks, more fuel tax holidays — classic Liberal vote-buying disguised as economic leadership.

The same crew that spent a decade destroying fiscal credibility now lectures Canadians about momentum and trade deals while the deficit explodes and the economy stays soggy. Champagne calls it generational investment. The rest of us call it generational theft. Poilievre's list is a start, but until Ottawa stops pretending infrastructure spectacles and consultant bloat are economic strategy, the bleeding continues.
