Summary
What else is Justin Trudeau willing to do to try to save his sinking ship? What else will he do to get his party back on track in the polls? I predict a universal basic income, a student loan forgiveness, and more tax incentives for first-time home buyers.

Hi it's John welcome to the channel drinking a cup of coffee this morning
00:00:04.240
420 in the morning yeah 420 in the morning you might hear my washer going
00:00:08.760
right behind me here figured I'd get some stuff done early this morning and I
00:00:12.660
was thinking about this tax break that Trudeau rolled out earlier this week
00:00:17.280
cutting the GST giving people a $250 check those people who make under $150
00:00:24.120
thousand dollars a year you know bribing you with your own money remember that
00:00:27.600
this is not government money this is your money they take way too much from you
00:00:32.560
and now he's trying to give you a break but I have been surprised by a lot of
00:00:37.140
the articles and actually quite pleased by articles I've read on this many people
00:00:40.800
are just saying this is gonna blow a six to seven billion dollar hole in our
00:00:44.780
deficit a deficit that is way too big already and it's not really gonna do
00:00:49.980
much to help people somebody said that if they get this in place by December 15th
00:00:54.780
you'll save about five bucks on a Christmas tree if you're lucky and if
00:00:58.000
you wait that long to to get a Christmas tree and this is all about trying to get
00:01:04.200
Pierre Polyev the leader of the opposition here in Canada to react to it to
00:01:08.580
vote down a tax break for Canadians it's not about helping Canadians it's about
00:01:13.020
helping Justin Trudeau and his party get out of the dumpster fire that they are
00:01:17.520
right now in the polls that's all this is about but we are about 11 months away
00:01:23.280
from an election here in Canada we're expecting it October 2025 and my question
00:01:29.460
is this what else is Trudeau willing to do to try to save his sinking ship this
00:01:34.980
is a desperate man so I came up with a couple of things this morning there's
00:01:39.000
probably more and as they get closer to the election more will pop up and I'll
00:01:42.360
probably talk about them but one I predict he is going to promise a
00:01:47.280
universal basic income in Canada there have been politicians in Canada that
00:01:53.520
have floated this out for years actually spoke to Hugh Siegel who passed away a
00:01:57.420
couple of years ago he was a senator I spoke to him about this on the air a
00:02:00.880
number of years ago he was in favor of this I think it's basically money for
00:02:04.280
nothing and it doesn't incentivize working it incentivize sitting around to do
00:02:08.660
nothing but Trudeau is going to float this out probably within the election
00:02:13.800
range so it's about six weeks before the election he's going to throw this issue
00:02:17.820
out as a wedge issue to try to get Polyev to go against it he wants to make
00:02:23.180
Polyev react to what he's doing because Polyev wants this to be about the carbon
00:02:27.860
tax and Trudeau wants to get away from that the carbon tax is not very popular
00:02:32.520
here in Canada people want to see it go so he has to make this about something
00:02:36.780
else so he's going to float out a universal basic income just prior to the
00:02:41.180
election the other thing he's going to do is he's going to forgive student loans
00:02:44.960
or a portion of student loans in Canada they did this in the United States
00:02:48.860
against the Supreme Court's will Biden was giving students money and it was
00:02:54.500
taxpayers money once again so he's going to do this and I actually looked online
00:02:58.760
to see what the with the student loan debt is like in Canada the average
00:03:04.280
recent graduate of a bachelor's degree owes about thirty thousand dollars in has
00:03:09.120
about thirty thousand dollars in debt so he is going to do that another wedge
00:03:12.660
issue free money for young people who Trudeau desperately needs to vote for
00:03:17.340
him I also think he's going to give more tax incentives for first-time homebuyers
00:03:22.200
of course housing is a real issue in Canada United States Britain I think in
00:03:27.380
Australia as well all the countries where have allowed a lot of illegal
00:03:30.780
people to come into the country won't have any place to live and housing prices
00:03:34.320
are going through the roof and Pierre Polyev who is again the leader of the
00:03:37.680
opposition here has made this an issue even though Trudeau said about a year and
00:03:41.520
a half ago that housing is not a federal responsibility he's going to give
00:03:45.060
another tax incentive and make it make it another wedge issue for the upcoming
00:03:49.440
election he wants Polyev to go against this all right and again this is bribing
00:03:54.000
you with your own money returning your money to its rightful owner which is you
00:03:57.960
this is your money he's handing out and finally not a money issue but Trudeau is
00:04:03.780
going to make a major announcement about his personal life which won't surprise me
00:04:08.400
at all and it probably won't surprise his wife either
