Trudeau’s train to debt Justin Trudeau has created more debt than all previous Canadian prime ministers combined. Our grandchildren have been condemned to economic slavery forever paying off this obscene Trudeau debt. A prime minister who is about to be fired by his own Liberal Party, just gave all Canadians the finger with “Trudeau’s Train […]
