Here on Life with Lynnie (LwL), there's something I thought I should tell you about.
Even though I have mentioned in the past about our Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, I thought I should let you know about something I read about, concerning him.
The article I read, I'm sharing with you. It's by torontosun.com and is entitled, Trudeau will bury us in debt: http://torontosun.com/2017/01/04/trudeau-will-bury-us-in-debt/wcm/f848772a-416a-46d7-b844-b2545e9969ca.
You may have noticed that it wasn't a new article. But, I have to say that I didn't see it until recently. And, it truly didn't make me happy.
When Canadians elected Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, it was a $2 trillion mistake.
And, no, that’s not just an opinion.
The $2 trillion figure comes from the Government of Canada’s Department of Finance, in its annual update on long-term fiscal projections.
The economic forecast was released this week, and the figures are stunning.
By 2040, Canada was projected to have no federal debt and a $158 billion surplus. This surplus would continue to grow, and presumably be returned to Canadians through lower taxes and increased spending on social programs.
The Harper government’s long-term economic plan included some tough but fair measures, like reducing the growth in federal spending and moving the retirement age up to 67.
Given the reality of Canada’s changing demographics, these measures are inevitable.
For instance, there are now more Canadians over the age of 65 than under the age of 15.
Canada can no longer make projections based on the booming growth we experienced after the Second World War.
Harper’s fiscal update (building on the fiscal success of the Jean Chrétien Liberals) made leaps and bounds towards correcting a broken, outdated system.
But things look drastically different under Trudeau.
Today’s long-term economic forecast paints a dire picture for the country’s finances.
It’s particularly punishing for young Canadians and future taxpayers.
Instead of surpluses, Canada will run deficits. Year after year.
Far from being debt-free within 25 years, Canada is now projected to run catastrophic deficits every year.
Our annual shortfall is forecasted to be $40 billion in 2035 alone.
By 2045, the government now projects $1.5 trillion in federal debt.
Just two years ago, Canada was projected to have a $760 billion surplus that same year.
Young Canadians, through no fault of their own, will continue to inherit record debt amidst a slumping economy. To add insult to injury, the Trudeau government is implementing the largest tax increase in a generation, through the all-economic-pain, no-environmental-gain carbon tax.
The PM is simultaneously taking more money out of our pockets and putting it into government coffers, while racking up record debt to cover the cost of his big government agenda.
On the 2015 campaign trail, Trudeau repeatedly promised that his economic plan included “modest deficits”.
He said a Trudeau government would only borrow $10 billion per year for two years.
Trudeau’s dream of a $20 billion loan has morphed into a $1.5 trillion nightmare for young Canadians.
And it’s a nightmare they won’t be able to wake up from for decades to come.
I know I didn't share the entire article with you. But, I did share a lot of it. I felt it was important to share this with you.
As I've stated in the past, I don't trust Justin Trudeau. And, as I've said in the past, I believe he is truly trying to do all he can to hurt Canada.
Yes, I believe that if he hurts Canada enough, then he'll be able to help the province of Quebec, separate from Canada. Just as he's tried to help happen, in the past.
As you can see in this article, it stated that (I copied/pasted again): Trudeau’s dream of a $20 billion loan has morphed into a $1.5 trillion nightmare for young Canadians.
Isn't this proof that Justin Trudeau lied? I believe so! After all, what he's been doing, is not what he said he would do.
Thinking about that, made me think of Proverbs 12:19, "The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment."
Amen! The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
Justin Trudeau is a liar. And, people will be hurt for many years, due to what he has done.
But, God can help us Canadians... since the lip of truth shall be established forever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
Please, pray... that Justin Trudeau will either be removed as our Canadian Prime Minister, or will not be re-elected.
Please, pray... that every Canadian will accept what God has told us, because we need to forgive Justin Trudeau.
Please, pray... that God will bless each and every person who will look to Him, and not to Justin Trudeau.
