"I thought we were doing better than the US?" Holy fuck these people do not follow unbiased news. Where would he get that idea? Certainly not following business news like Bloomberg (US). The American economy is ripping. While they have bad inflation as well, they have very low unemployment and decent wage growth. The American consumer is resilient. Ours is drowning. Our unemployment is atrocious, especially among the youth. When you are drilled by the PM, and his minions at CBC, about how great Canada is, this is what you get. A class of folks with no clue about what is actually going on. Brainwashed, and gullible.
Witness the average Canadian at the beginning of this clip. This is how uninformed they are.
He was under the belief that the U.S. was doing worse than Canada. Now why would that be?
Our media & politicians have presented a false reality to the population.
