“Government spends too much. Highest since 1996. More debt, inflation, interest rates. Families have less money. I want government to spend less so people keep more money.”
MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT
Luc Berthold
Berthold frequently criticizes the Liberals as arrogant and out-of-touch, accusing them of overspending and driving up costs for struggling families. He pushes for reduced government spending to address inflation and the cost of living, but rarely proposes specific cuts. His statements often focus on negative economic news and he is quick to highlight any perceived hypocrisy or lavish spending by the Prime Minister.
“Government spending is out of control. You've added $90 billion in new spending and we're paying more in interest than the GST brings in or health transfers. Every family is paying $3,300 a year in interest. Will you change course in the fiscal update or make Canadians pay even more for Liberal spending?”
