Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca also apply here. See the sidebar on the homepage:
If the rest of Canada was getting healthy raises at the same rate I wouldn't have a problem with it. But they're not leading by example ... it looks more like the elites are grabbing what they want AND making the rules at the same time.
And that is a load of bullshit.
I wasn't pointing at Trudeau. Nice of you to ass-u-me.
I was looking at Millhouse who's never worked an hourly paid job in his life and became a millionaire while in office.
Two income family with real estate in Ottawa and Calgary, during a big real estate boom, plus being a cabinet minister for much of his twenty years in the House will do that. Given that, his net worth (estimated to be $5M) isn't extraordinary.
