Talk Truth 05.29.23 - Kris Sims

On this episode of Talk Truth, we cover a range of political and environmental issues facing Alberta and Canada. We dive into the recent budget legislation introduced by the Alberta government, which ties future spending increases to inflation and population growth and extends the fuel tax holiday. Additionally, we discuss the role of media outlets in holding the government accountable and the ethics and legality surrounding this issue. The Canadian Taxpayers Federation passes a fail grade to the NDP's fully costed platform and a passing grade to the UCP's costed platform. We also discuss the hypocrisy of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's carbon tax plan and the impact it will have on the daily lives of Canadians.
