GOLDSTEIN: Canadians’ standard of living is on decline, report says
Canadians are currently experiencing one of the worst and longest declines in their standard of living in decades, a new report says.
psvrh, 
I wasn’t aware that my standard of living was measured by the wealth I can produce for the nation, but I suppose that’s how the right-wing views everyone not of the ruling class: as a resource to be strip-mined.
SamuelRJankis, The report that is not linked in the article, to be clear the entire thing is just based off of GDP:
fraserinstitute.org/…/changes-in-per-person-GDP-I…
Probably the most interesting chart out of the entire thing: https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/5be97d4a-0894-4fa8-b99c-7d1bdcaeb03b.png
I feel this paints Mulroney(1984-1993) way worse than Trudeau. https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/8cc80c89-4d79-4189-9630-5b3712234104.png
girlfreddy, 
Because he was.
SamuelRJankis, The chart also doesn’t look to hot for the guy running things in 2008 and part of 2015. Whomever that may be…
girlfreddy, The report is from the Frasier Institute, a right-of-centre libertarian organization.
I’ll take the study with a grain of salt.
Kichae, The right-wing propaganda machine is spinning up in a big way as the next election nears. There’s blood in the water, and they want to kill hair-boy once and for all.
Nouveau_Burnswick, So do I.
We deserve NPD governance.
corsicanguppy, We can’t get direct NDP governance.
We can get INdirect NDP governance. Give us a minority again and let them run the red puppet some more. Focus on healthcare and rank-choice.
Nouveau_Burnswick, We can get NPD governance the minute we stop believing we can’t get NPD governance.
