'The little things count,' writes RobynUrback. 'Roll down the windows instead of turning on the A/C in your Tesla if you happen to be driving on one of these unseasonably warm November days. Pick up your dry cleaning instead of having it delivered.'

Hey, you there: the guy pouring water in your kid’s orange juice, and the lady reinstalling those old, practically treadless winter tires. Listen up. Canada’s Finance Minister, woman of the people , knows how hard the last few months have been on the average Canadian. She employs many of them. Anyway, when asked byover the weekend how she plans to control government spending during these turbulent times, she cited cost-cutting measures she has enacted in her own home.

To political operatives who sip elderflower cocktails at the Chateau Laurier, it’s little anecdotes like these that make Ms. Freeland the perfect retail politician. Indeed, if you thought Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre was good at galvanizing a crowd, just wait until you see prospective-Trudeau-successor Ms.

We all know that grocery prices continue to soar , even as the rate of inflation slows. So the next time you send your housekeeper out to fetch groceries, ask her to select less expensive brands. Instead of Grey Poupon, try French’s mustard. Rather than purchasing freshly shaved truffles, try truffle oil. And if you’re really feeling adventurous, go ahead and buy the ingredients to make a salad at home instead of purchasing the more expensive preassembled version.

rexglacer RobynUrback Do you think a minister of finance should say these things abouts tips to save money when the Liberals are still spending tax payers money. Instead make some cut back announcements

RobynUrback She really has no clue 😂just funny at this point of time . That’s what happens when you are in power for such a long time . You lose touch of reality .

RobynUrback We all need to be micro-managed by a government that has macro-managed the debt

RobynUrback The liberals who haven't balanced the Budget in 7 years is going to teach the Citizens how to Budget. Good lord .

RobynUrback Break out the bicycle attached a nice big basket on it and go do your errands. Benefit, smell the fresh air, hear nature, gets the blood circulating through your lethargic body.Then peddle like the wind to get home to make supper. Ahhhh nice cuppa tea lass.

RobynUrback Lol. Robyn is great!

RobynUrback We have a big drug problem Canada , results are evident right here

RobynUrback She should worry about learning to stand still. Freeland is like a tweaker

RobynUrback Suggestion: move back to Peace River, see how normies live

RobynUrback This brings me right back to 'And I can see RUSSIA from my house'

RobynUrback Why are we not focused on taxing corps at a higher rate & closing there loop holes to evade tax🤷🏾‍♂️. GST rebates, personal tax breaks, ICBC kickbacks, tuition subsidies, THEY ARE ALL BAND AID solutions. When will a politician stand up for the average Canadian? Give ur heads a shake

RobynUrback Who needs AC when it's 17 degrees? It's not that hot.

RobynUrback Maybe have a few less lattes at at the local Starbucks shut your car off in the Tim’s lineup

RobynUrback Good article Robyn but Ms. Freeland is so out of touch she couldn’t feel the wind for the air. 👎🇨🇦

RobynUrback Freeland has no idea about the real world. I can't even afford Disney + so how can I cut it out of my expenses. Please vote these liberals out.

RobynUrback Can't afford dry cleaning but I do have a tesla model 3 saving me huge amounts of money. Keeping windows rolled up is better. Less coefficient of drag. I don't have home air conditioning either...too expensive.

RobynUrback Is this subtle parody?

RobynUrback Best tip: Don't elect a government that says the budget will balance it self 🤷‍♂️

RobynUrback

RobynUrback The more we can save the more Freeland can take.

RobynUrback Who has their dry cleaning delivered, who even dry cleans anymore? Get real, no better yet, get lost.

RobynUrback Resignation save life's!

Urback is a mouthpiece for the status quo. The article is hypocritical.

RobynUrback Here is some advice for the Liberals….don’t destroy our economy like you did you self entitled privileged corrupt fools….then we won’t have to listen to your nonsense advice

RobynUrback Get rid of the carbon tax grab. This makes everything more expensive for everyone. The people it hurts most are seniors on fixed incomes and post secondary students and young families.

RobynUrback Instead of using a Montblanc Meisterstuck fountain pen to ruin the economy, try using one of their more affordable platinum-coated rollerballs.

RobertFife RobynUrback Sad that she has to tell us.

RobynUrback as they send 100's to another climate summit again. to give away the tax money paid for healthcare.

RobynUrback A new CBC blockbuster TV show coming, 'Green tips by Christa' with regular guest visits by Bobblehead Trudy.

RobynUrback Hmmmm, how about canceling the carbon tax that increases cost of everything cause it sure as Hell is doing absolutely nothing for the fake Trudeau green plan.

RobynUrback Lucky to have her running the country… meanwhile…

RobynUrback Actually going to double down on spending and energy use, I’m actually going to try and stimulate our economy

RobynUrback 😂

RobynUrback I am actually shocked that the libs haven't banned drive thrus yet. And delivery services.

RobynUrback I guess when she pulled her whatever out of her a** during photo shoot the dry cleaning was needed after

RobynUrback Talk about Gaslighting

RobynUrback She is completely out of touch with reality and continues to promote spending that will drive inflation out of control and make life really hard for those not earning 250k+ from taxpayers and getting government driver and a car. TrudeauMustGo

RobynUrback Most people do not have a Tesla and wash all their clothes. Ottawa people are worrying at a different level.

RedTory1 RobynUrback That would be funny...if she had said that.

RobertFife RobynUrback Freeland deserves this article. Personally, I check my credit card account every day! I must be able to pay it off in full every month. Note that their plan says they will lower credit card FEES, not INTEREST. Those fees are paid once a year. Some cards have no fees already.

RobertFife RobynUrback Ohhhh no!!! cancelled my G&M subscription because Freeland told me to cut cut cut. Now I can't read the article. Anyway, let the PM use our money to stay in a $6,000.00 per day room as we cut cut cut.

RobynUrback Little things like not sending billions of our dollars for a corrupt NATO/Nazi Ukraine War.

RobynUrback I have an idea. Curb the salaries of politically and financially inept individuals in government who would rather put the blame on the citizens it’s desperately trying to hold control of through means of attrition.

RobynUrback OMFG

RobynUrback The best tip would be to stop the banks from printing money out of thin air, and causing this whole inflation insanity in the first place!

rexglacer RobynUrback Not So Free Land FreelandMustGo

RobynUrback

RobynUrback Hanging out your clothes is cheaper than using the dryer!

RobynUrback why is that nazi still in the house? when will we the people wake up?
