Freeland says Trudeau has “full support” of Liberal cabinet

Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland spoke out in support of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Thursday, saying he has her “full support” despite the Liberal Party’s poor performance in the recent Toronto-St. Paul’s byelection.
“I know he has the full support of cabinet,” Freeland added, though she conceded that Canadians in the former Liberal stronghold had sent a message to the governing party by electing the Conservatives.
Asked whether she should keep her job as deputy prime minister and finance minister amid increasing concerns about cost of living in Canada, Freeland said that is a decision for the prime minister.
“There was definitely a clear message from the voters of Toronto-St. Paul’s and I think it’s really important to act on that message,” she added. Freeland said they have heard the concerns of Canadians.

Freeland thinks the the message is "Things are hard"? Wrong. As a voter in Toronto-St. Paul's, my message is that "we are sick and tired of your virtue signaling, do-nothing, tax-and-spend incompetent government". Time for Freeland and company to shove off. And don't forget that Toronto St. Paul's is right next to soon-to-be former minister Freeland's own riding.

@@slwide7507 Trudeau has doubled government spending since the last year of Harper’s government. Doubled! In these expensive social programs that are in provincial jurisdictions of governance. Meanwhile, Trudeau ignored our military (which has become a weak joke), productivity, economic growth, housing, and cost of living. Canadians do have a dramatically bigger and more expensive government and far more bureaucrats, but most Canadians are struggling under massive debt due to no wage growth to pay the high taxes to fund Trudeau’s freebies. All wrong and bad. Vote for a change of direction for Canada!
