Canadians are seeing rising inflation, and are hearing fears about a looming recession, and there are plenty of terms being thrown about in conversations about our economy. Here’s what you need to know about bear markets and bull markets.

Tell me how you come up with annual inflation only at ~7%, when every figure you are announcing is well above that? I'm not math wizard but this doesn't add up

1. We are already in a recession 2. Thank your Finance Minister for her spending :) Max pain hasnt even begun yet.

Weeeeeeeeeee

CANADA is in a Recession, a Depression is inevitable & unavoidable. It’s not by accident, it’s by DESIGN, a FEATURE that the liberal_party JustinTrudeau want. On behalf of the WEF & K. Swabb. Why? Ask em, you’ll get double speak, lies, & misdirection in response. Guaranteed.
