Juno News - The elites are laughing about inflation

00:00:00.000 something painfully elitist happened in canadian politics the other week when erin o'toole posted

00:00:10.560 a picture of a breakfast and showed how the items in that breakfast well they have been getting

00:00:16.540 more and more expensive with inflation based on statistics canada data a lot of people bizarrely

00:00:22.940 laughed at erin o'toole for doing that incredibly elitist of them but now he's back he's back

00:00:28.440 unapologetically and he's doing it again with a graphic showing a barbecue and showing how the

00:00:33.860 items in that barbecue when it comes to the meat you're putting on the grill or the cost of propane

00:00:39.180 they are going up even more than the items in that breakfast picture good on erin o'toole for coming

00:00:45.460 back and doing a second round of this because while folks out there who don't have to worry about paying

00:00:51.160 the bills they're not too concerned about uh stretching things because they're comfortable

00:00:55.740 they may sneer and laugh at these graphics well regular folks they're talking about this every

00:01:01.080 day they're doing comparison shopping they're looking around and saying man prices are going up

00:01:05.700 i gotta try and find a better deal because this is really hitting my wallet hard it's making

00:01:10.300 things difficult for me to feed my family why were people sneering at this in the first place

00:01:15.440 well this breakfast that erin o'toole put a picture of it was a pretty hearty breakfast it was the sort of

00:01:20.420 thing that really you'd only get served at a diner or if you're staying at a hotel it's what they would

00:01:24.780 serve to you for the breakfast in the morning but it's not the sort of breakfast that most people

00:01:28.680 eat every day if you did it's probably not too healthy to eat that breakfast every day it's going

00:01:33.480 to clog your arteries i mean all the bacon and fried eggs and stuff every morning but that wasn't the

00:01:38.540 point the point was that i think erin o'toole wanted to show a whole variety of breakfast items and

00:01:44.620 just to show how the cost of living is indeed going up now instead of just acknowledging that

00:01:50.420 acknowledging that's probably why he put the image out people looked for every opportunity they

00:01:54.520 could to undermine it to score points against the conservatives okay fine that's politics that's

00:01:59.460 what you do but boy did they come across looking incredibly out of touch like they were basically

00:02:05.540 sneering at the realities that regular canadians are facing every day there are some people who

00:02:11.900 have done actually really well the past couple years either because they have these these guaranteed

00:02:17.360 salaries that are guaranteed to rise somewhat equivalent to inflation they made made off like bandits

00:02:23.040 with the stock market i don't know but there's a lot of people who are also not in that situation

00:02:28.540 and they're not faring so well and it's a really bad look for those people who want to take an elitist

00:02:34.780 approach to laughing at those basic concerns so good on erin o'toole for saying you mocked me for doing

00:02:39.940 this once well guess what it matters it's important i'm doing it again

00:02:43.880 you

00:02:44.880 you

00:02:47.820 you

00:02:49.820 you

00:02:51.820 you

00:02:53.820 you
