Trudeau Cutting Hospital Funding Like a Conservative

Justin Trudeau likes to point the finger at Conservatives for health cuts. But last night, we learned that he has quietly cut health funding for military members.

The cuts mean downloading costs on provincial hospitals, compounding health cuts by Doug Ford and other Conservative governments.

This comes after Trudeau maintained Harper’s cuts to provincial health transfers.

Meanwhile, Trudeau found $14 billion dollars in tax breaks to corporations. His own top cabinet ministers haven’t paid their share of taxes.

Justin Trudeau gives Canadians some pretty words on health care. But he’s given tax breaks to the rich and cut services for everyone else.
