Our is government throwing around money without controls or thought - and Canadians love it. If 830,000 payment where returned, you can bet a similar number were wrongly given out and kept. Fortunately previous governments have been more financially prudent, so it will take a few years for Trudeau to make us into Venezuela. It took a generation for Canada to recover from the debt PET amassed. T2 is worse.
Nobody in Venezuela ever thought it would happen to them back in 2012. It only took one oil price nosedive, and a government whose solution to economic problems was quotas, price controls and other command economy solutions.
Every day, particularly thanks to this pandemic, people seem more and more inclined to accept daddy government as the solution to these problems, despite having proved its incompetence in doing so.
