Somebody has to pay for Trudeau's grand, luxurious, splendor dazzling vacations (the ones you could never afford for yourself but have proven you approve of them for him) plus the $14,000 of your dollars he spends on MONTHLY household expenses, you know like the jet that delivered a canoe to him in B.C. so that he could paddle a couple of hundred yards for a photo-shot there, that you paid for, his very expensive hair stylist, the $600 bottles of wine, plus more more more more.
Remember that he was elected...and then..re-elected.

Blame yourself.
