Seniors voted for Carney in record numbers.
Here’s what they got:
$1.2 billion cut from mental health & addictions
Pharmacare expansion effectively dead.
$600 million cut from long-term care
$500 million cut from drugs for rare diseases
Health transfers dropping from 5% to 3% after 2028
CANADA HAS AMONG THE FASTEST AGING POPULATION IN THE G7.
But Carney is sending $25 billion to a “sovereign wealth fund.”
Gave $120 million to Sudan
$200 million for a gravel pad in Nova Scotia
Yet these cuts,
EVERY SINGLE ONE, hits seniors the hardest.
The deficit is coming down 📉
Home prices and rents are coming down 📉
The GDP is going up 📈
Non-U.S. exports are going up 📈
Why? Because our plan is starting to pay off.
We are empowering workers, we are investing in Canada and we are Building 🇨🇦 Strong.
