It's Just Money

Taxpayer money:

A military airstrip upgrade in northern Canada will cost 53% more than promised because materials rose in price and Covid-19 caused delays, according to the defence minister’s announcement last Thursday.

Minister of National Defence Anita Anand said extending and modernizing an airstrip in Inuvik, Northwest Territories will cost $80 million more than the original $150 million because prices have risen, supply chains have faltered and Covid-19 has set the project back.

 

Who was it who shut down the country?

 To say the least:

The union representing Canada Revenue Agency workers is proposing a series of pay bumps worth more than 30 per cent of current wages to keep up with inflation — a move described by observers as both "unprecedented" and "crazy."

Inflation is caused by a reckless government and we all know it:

According to the survey, more than a quarter of Canadians believe that current decades-high prices will drop five years from now.

“What goes up must come down,” said one respondent in a post-survey interview.
