    Is the Canadian Government Wasting Public Funds?

    Under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, the Canadian government has come under increasing scrutiny for its spending decisions. Critics argue that billions of taxpayer dollars are being mismanaged, with funds directed toward questionable projects rather than pressing domestic concerns like healthcare, infrastructure, and affordability.

    One of the most controversial examples is the ArriveCAN app, launched during the COVID-19 pandemic to manage traveler information. Originally budgeted at just $80,000, its costs ballooned to nearly $54 million, an amount many experts find unjustifiable. To further highlight the inefficiency, two independent developers were able to recreate the app in under two days, raising serious questions about financial oversight.

    Beyond single projects, Canada’s overall government spending has surged dramatically. The 2024/25 federal budget estimates program spending at $483.6 billion, an increase of $16.1 billion from previous projections. This includes funding for initiatives such as a national school food program, housing projects, and artificial intelligence development—all well-intentioned, but critics argue they lack fiscal restraint and clear prioritization. Trudeau’s government has also been rocked by scandals related to financial management. In 2019, the Ethics Commissioner found that Trudeau violated ethics rules by attempting to influence a corporate legal case, further fueling concerns about transparency and accountability. 

    With spending on projects like ArriveCAN and soaring national budgets, many Canadians are left wondering: Is their hard-earned tax money being used effectively, or is government mismanagement creating an unnecessary financial burden? As public debt continues to rise, calls for greater transparency and responsible budgeting are growing louder. The question remains—will the government listen?
