François-Philippe Champagne told the G20 Canada is doing fine. Food inflation. Kids without enough to eat. A seven-figure family on the taxpayer. Who exactly is doing fine?
Jim and Iain take the clip apart: employment "up" from a hole, GDP juiced by energy and a $73 billion takeover that just changes the name on the door, and a finance minister whose household will cost Canadians about a million a year. Then Tristin Hopper's verdict — Trudeau ran on vibes and never did anything — and a vibe-based government that swapped socks for expensive bureaucrats. If pointing out that 2+2=4 is "unpatriotic," what is the plan Champagne won't share?
