Today in the Canadian Parliament, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh criticized Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, accusing him of excluding seniors and working Canadians from the $250 rebate. He argued that the Liberal government is leaving out those who need the support the most.
Meanwhile, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre also targeted Jagmeet Singh. Poilievre pointed out that on one hand, Singh claims to have terminated his agreement with the government, yet on the other hand, he is supporting Trudeau’s two-month relief plan.
Poilievre suggested that if this is all the government plans to do, they should call for an immediate election so Canadians can decide who they want to lead.
It is worth noting that PM Trudeau announced that starting in March 2025, $250 checks will be sent to Canadians with an income of up to $150,000 after taxes in 2023.
