Stop settling for "less bad." The CPC is just a slower version of the same big government train that’s running our country into the ground. If you want actual fiscal sanity and a government that stays out of your wallet, watch this.

Investors on Instagram: "Jerome Powell has repeatedly warned that the growing U.S. federal debt is shifting the burden onto future generations. In his view, the current fiscal path is unsustainable, with persistent deficits forcing the government to borrow today while leaving repayment to younger Americans. That cost does not disappear. It shows up later through higher taxes, reduced public investment, or rising interest expenses. Powell also emphasizes that while the Federal Reserve does not control fiscal policy, the scale of the debt, now exceeding 100% of GDP, creates long term risks. It limits the country’s flexibility to respond to future crises and increases pressure on economic stability. The message is not about immediate collapse. It is about long term consequences.

Passing our bills to our children is one of the most unfair things a government can do. We need real responsibility that respects individual liberty and the future of every young Canadian. No more blank cheques on the backs of our kids.
