Ever since the Carney Recession was declared, the Liberals have been telling a lot of lies about it

THE TRUTH: Donald Trump has imposed new tariffs on every single country on the planet, yet no other country has gone into recession as a result. Every single country in the G20 is seeing their economy grow right now, including Mexico, which has an economy that is just as dependent on the United States as ours is.

Additionally, as Mark Carney likes to point out, Trump has imposed lower tariffs on Canada than any country on Earth.

LIE #2: "The recession was caused by reductions in government spending."

THE TRUTH: Spending has significantly increased since Mark Carney entered office, with the deficit growing by $31 BILLION compared to Trudeau's final deficit. The Liberals cannot point to a single spending cut that would have resulted in this.

LIE #3: "The recession was caused by negative population growth."

THE TRUTH: Plenty of countries have negative population growth, including wealthy economies like Japan, Poland, Germany, and Italy. All of these countries are shrinking faster than Canada, and none of them are in a recession.

Ever since the Carney Recession was declared, the Liberals have been telling a lot of lies about it.

LIE #4: "The recession was caused by the Iran War."

THE TRUTH: Increases in global commodity prices as a result of the Iran War have raised demand for Canadian energy, which has a positive impact on economic growth in Canada.

The Iran War has increased prices in Canada and, while this is harmful to Canadians, rising prices does not explain why the economy is contracting in size.

LIE #5: "The recession was caused by anything aside from Carney Liberal policies."

THE TRUTH: Since entering office over a year ago, Mark Carney has grown Canada's deficit and built NOTHING. Global investors are realizing that Carney is not a reliable nationbuilder, and $20 BILLION has left the country as a result.

If Mark Carney actually fulfilled his campaign promises to unleash construction and infrastructure, our economy would be growing.
