Canada’s finance minister has some expert financial advise for Canadians who are struggling to manage their budgets amid high inflation rates. Those who are unable to afford their mortgages, rent, school tuition, energy bills (plus the enormous carbon taxes imposed by the Trudeau government), grocery bills, etc. can simply cancel their Disney Plus accounts to cope with the financial woes the Trudeau government has created.
Chrystia Freeland has a tip for families struggling with inflation. Canada’s Finance Minister suggests they follow her example and cut their @DisneyPlus subscription.

Freeland’s jaw-dropping comment, coming from someone who makes a six-digit salary, is an indication of how clueless the Leftist elites are, and how uncaring they are about the poor, while pretending to be their advocates.
The following tweets capture the many levels of absurdity and insult embedded within Freeland’s comment, including the fact that Freeland unilaterally decided for her own older kids and other older Canadian kids that “you’re older now, you don’t want to watch Disney anymore, let’s cut that Disney Plus subscription.” Never mind the fact that Disney includes other packages for older kids and adults. As an aside, there is no sympathy here for Disney, a woke organization that was dealt a public blow by its fellow Leftist Freeland.
You know one thing that really bothers me about Freeland’s ignorant Disney Plus comment?
The idea that struggling people should have nothing that makes them happy at all. Their entire lives should just be misery and trying to survive.
That is a ghoulish outlook.

Dear Chrystia Freeland,
If you are telling Canadians to cut their Disney+ subscription to save 13 bucks month due to record high inflation you have failed as a Finance Minister.
Please resign.@cafreeland

Many Canadians have difficulty putting food on the table and paying rent, so this is more than a bit tone deaf, but perhaps doing without Disney Plus is really a major hardship for Freeland and her family. ? https://t.co/nfII3BHQC6

The Trudeau government has created Canada’s troubled economy through its lavish spending and COVID mandate overreach, which led to the Freedom Convoy. Freeland was also the one to announce the totalitarian-style freezing of the bank accounts of those linked to the protests.
Some headlines about how the Trudeau government wrecked Canada’s economy:
- Trudeau and Biden double down on efforts to destroy our economy
- Trudeau government weakened Canada’s economy well before COVID-19
- Trudeau government has pushed federal spending to the highest level in Canadian history
- Trudeau inherited a rich Canada and turned it into an economic mess in just 6 years
- Trudeau Who Killed Canada, Now Seeking To Kill Nationalism
- Trudeau government ignores dreary economic numbers
The list goes on. And watch now as Freeland dodges a question from CTV news about her Disney Plus comments, and instead clumsily insults struggling Canadians even more, in the most patronizing and cringeworthy manner:
“Chrystia Freeland’s Disney+ comments upset Canadians: ‘Insulting on multiple levels,’” by Elianna Lev, Yahoo News, November 7, 2022:
Canadians are puzzled by a comment made by Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, in which she offered a personal example of a way she’s cutting back on spending for her family amid soaring inflation and rising prices.
Speaking in an interview with Global News, Chrystia Freeland touched on topics like inflation, the spike in cost of living and what the Liberal government is doing to help during these exceptionally challenging times.
Freeland acknowledged Canadians are looking closely at the way they’re spending and offered an example of one way her family is cutting back on monthly expenses.
“I personally, as a mother and wife, look carefully at my credit card bill once a month,” she said. “And last Sunday, I said to the kids, ‘you’re older now. You don’t watch Disney anymore. Let’s cut that Disney+ subscription. So we cut it. It’s only $13.99 a month that we’re saving, but every little bit helps.”
Many on social media took issue with that comment, describing it as tone-deaf and out of touch, considering her salary is in the six digits….
