"We're calling for Mark Carney to reverse his new spending increases, cap spending, cut bureaucracy, consultants, [and] foreign aid," said Poilievre.
"We can't give money abroad when we're not feeding our own people at home. Charity starts at home. Cut foreign aid. Put the money into our country instead," he continued.
"Lets cut back on the handouts to phony asylum claimants. Stop paying for hotels for fake refugees. Get rid of the corporate welfare handouts to Mark Carney's insiders and friends," the Conservative leader added.
The Carney Liberals have been facing increasing criticism from Conservatives over wasteful spending as the cost of living crisis continues in Canada.

Pierre also needs to stop being such a politician. It’s time Alberta and Saskatchewan shocks Ottawa with separation.
