Boy the national post sucks.
Just rattling off numbers (talking points) from the “Canadian Taxpayers Federation” with no context.
In the usual fashion its just a list of large numbers to make stupid people rage without any thoughtful analysis over what we got for those increases. They might be bullshit or they might be needed but I will never know with this shit reporting.
Rabble rabble this delay with my passport is unacceptable!! /s
it’s pointless to throw a long term number out without considering what contributes to it. Canada’s growth, population growth, economic growth, and other factors cause the public service to grow. In 2006 - 2015, it also had come through some periods of suppressed growth as the conservatives slashed services provided.
The public service was still too bloated at the end of Harper’s tenure.
Well, if you don’t want to receive any services then sure…
There’s a lot of services we could do without to be honest.
Care to list them?
Doesn’t this also include military employment?
Military employment is only up about 6% since 2015, nowhere close to the 40% of the entire public service.
