12. DID JUSTIN TRUDEAU HAVE THE
ANSWERS FOR GDP
• Justin Trudeau took an economy growing at 2.3$ (Post-2009 recession to annual growth on average of 2.1%.
Trudeau seen GDP go from 3.0 in 2017 to 1.6 in 2019.
• Trudeau deficits did little to address systemic issues with the economy, i.e., productivity, building a resilient
supply chain, reducing gridlock, addressing issues with household debt.
• BOC buying government bonds - https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/bank-of-canada-already-pushing-limits-of-

growth-canada-july-2019
• GDP – 2021 Despite all the deficits the economy continues to face major headways for the rest of 2021. It
goes to show Canadians that economies do not grow from the heart as @JustinTrudeau predicted a few
years ago! https://www.slideshare.net/paulyoungcga/gdp-canada-analysis-and-commentary-june-2021
13. GOVERNMENT AND MONETARY
POLICIES
• The government needs to grasp the BOC policies as part of any fiscal management cycle. Trudeau has since
day one increase the budget deficit without addressing key areas impacting supply chain and the
affordability of housing. Trudeau carbon tax had an impact on inflation.

14. FISCAL MANAGEMENT CYCLE
Taxes are up in Canada and spending is down based on the latest Fiscal Monitor
https://www.slideshare.net/paulyoungcga/fiscal-management-public-sector-canada Nowhere are any of the parties
discussing the need to get better value for tax dollars, why?
@theJagmeetSingh now thinks it is time to shut down tax havens. You would think that from Oct/19 until the election
call that he would have push bills to shut the havens down, right?
