Taxes are rising again — because they always are. And now, under Prime Minister Mark Carney, the same tired excuses roll off the podium: “economic sustainability,” “climate commitments,” “investing in the future.” But behind the polished words is a much darker reality: Canadians are being financially gutted by the very leaders who promised prosperity.
Let’s not sugarcoat this. Between Justin Trudeau and Mark Carney, Canada has gone from a country of potential to a cautionary tale. What started as reckless spending under Trudeau has now been institutionalized under Carney — polished, rebranded, and quietly devastating.
It’s not just about bad budgeting. It’s about betrayal.
While everyday Canadians struggle with soaring rent, unaffordable groceries, and endless tax increases, the government continues to funnel billions into international posturing, bloated bureaucracies, and programs with zero return for the average citizen. Carney might wear a more “technocratic” mask than Trudeau’s flamboyant style — but the agenda hasn’t changed. If anything, it’s accelerated.
Need a family doctor? Good luck. Want affordable housing? Get in line. But if you’re a multinational corporation or a global climate initiative? There’s a blank cheque waiting for you.
And when the government inevitably runs out of money — again — it doesn’t scale back. It turns on you.
More carbon taxes. More payroll deductions. New environmental fees. Higher alcohol and fuel prices. It never ends.
Carney, much like Trudeau before him, doesn’t seem to grasp (or care about) the strain on working Canadians. They live in a bubble — a gated world of summits, speaking tours, and ideologically driven policies that sound good in theory but decimate in practice.
Let’s call this what it is: the systematic bleeding of a nation. Not for survival. Not for safety. But to maintain a fantasy — a globalist dream built on the backs of a weary, overtaxed population.
From Trudeau’s performative politics to Carney’s corporate-style governance, the result is the same: broken infrastructure, broken trust, and a shrinking middle class that’s carrying the whole load.
Maybe — just maybe — if these leaders stopped blowing taxpayer money on everything but Canada, we wouldn’t be facing historic debt, crumbling services, and an endless squeeze on the average worker.
But don’t expect change. The vampire state has changed faces — not fangs.
