Mental health afflictions are on the rise across the board, especially among the young, as the economy nosedives and hope for the younger generation looks grimmer by the day, particularly under the strain of woke governments and their mishandling of the COVID crisis, as well as their overall financial mismanagement. But Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s focus isn’t on suffering Canadians. His government only pretended to be concerned about mental health during election time.
Trudeau’s obsessions remain: mandatory vaccinations, abortion, boosting the World Economic Forum (including a $3 million gift), impressing the United Nations (to which he gave $1.6 billion in taxpayer dollars last year), and helping Ukraine at any cost. Canada forked over a $500 million loan to Ukraine “and $7.8 million worth of lethal equipment and ammunition to Ukraine,” prompting Canadian Defense Minister Anita Anand to warn Canadians “that the Trudeau government has depleted its stocks of weapons in its rush to assist Ukraine.”
Meanwhile, as the Trudeau government faces increasing “criticism about the $875M in missing mental health spending,” that amount is just the tip of the iceberg. The Trudeau government’s election platform included a promise to spend a total of $4.5 billion on mental health. It turned out to be yet another election lie.
Trudeau has abandoned both those who are suffering and those trying to help them.

But despite the sense of urgency in Trudeau’s remarks last year, no money has yet materialized for this new Canada mental health transfer, including an initial $875 million that was supposed to have been spent or budgeted by now, according to the Liberal party’s 2021 election platform….
