Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland is delivering her first major speech since the budget today, outlining $8.9 billion in financial supports her government has introduced already to help Canadians deal with rising inflation.
“We know that Canadians are worried about inflation and that they’re asking what their government is going to do about it,” Freeland said in a media statement.
“That’s why we have a new Affordability Plan — $8.9 billion in new support this year — that is going to put more money in the pockets of Canadians at a time when they need it most.”
She sounds very silly.
