The Trudeau government spent $32,250 bankrolling an intersectional feminist report on the evils of outer space.
The report claims current approaches to outer space are “heavily Western, state-centric, militarized, masculinized, and colonial,” and encourage practices that are “racist, exploitative, elitist, and environmentally destructive.”
Plus, the feds are wasting $7 million of your money on a new ad campaign trying to convince Canadians the carbon tax is good.

It took Parks Canada four years and $10,000 (of your tax dollars) before they captured a single frog in British Columbia.
All told, Parks Canada spent 15,000 hunting 101 frogs.
And don’t forget: Parks Canada also spent $800,000 getting foreign hunters to kill 84 deer out of a helicopter – that’s $10,000 a deer!

You’re paying higher taxes because Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s bureaucrat hiring spree is out of control.
The majority of Canadians say the government spends too much money, takes too much money from our paycheques and wastes money on the wrong priorities. That’s according to a new Ipsos poll commissioned by the Montreal Economic Institute.
Trying to make homes more affordable with a tax hike is like trying to boil water with your freezer. But the Trudeau government keeps flirting with home equity taxes.

We break down why you’re right to be concerned that a home equity tax could right around the corner.
