‘Causing such division’

Dear Editor:

I can’t imagine why Prime Minister Mark Carney is so fascinated with 24 Sussex; this country is hemorrhaging money on all sorts of causes.

It certainly can’t be for his use because he lives in New York. I think we need to look inside to our own people and our needs at this time, not refurbishing some old building for millions of dollars or dipping into our pension fund to prop up other countries. That should never be touched. 

I still don’t understand this condo deal and why we should be buying condos to bail out the builders who stuck their neck out and are now finding what it’s like to be in real life. Can you imagine buying one of those condos a couple of years ago and now you’re going to house the homeless? Whatever equity you had is going to be gone. 

There is some slight of hand going on with this pipeline we have; I just wish we would get it going. I don’t know why we can’t get it to Ontario and refine it for the rest of the world. We live in a very rich country and our people love our country but Carney is causing such division. It’s not the same country I recognized 10 years ago. 

I know Carney is Trudeau on steroids and he can spend money like no one else. 

He stepped out of a New York-style lifestyle, where his family is still living, and he has moved his business south of the border as well.

But soon he will be gone and we will be left with the mess. Thank you very much, Mr. Carney. I hope you disappear as fast as you appeared. You can go now.
