It now takes about half of a Canadian's paycheque to pay their housing costs, and the cost to heat those homes during a Canadian winter is about to rise up to 300%, yet somehow the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> thinks this is the time to propose Liberal tax hikes that would make everything more expensive.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7347767\" data-originallang=\"en\">When will the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> stop making things worse and just end his plan to triple taxes on gas, groceries and home heating?</p>",

Les Canadiens consacrent maintenant environ la moiti\u00e9 de leur ch\u00e8que de paie \u00e0 leurs frais de logement, et les co\u00fbts pour chauffer ces logements durant l'hiver canadien sont sur le point d'augmenter de 300 %. Pourtant, pour une raison quelconque, le <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">premier ministre</a> lib\u00e9ral pense que c'est un bon moment pour proposer des hausses fiscales qui rendraient tout plus cher.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7347767\" data-originallang=\"en\">Quand le <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">premier ministre</a> cessera-t\u2011il d'aggraver la situation et annulera-t\u2011il son plan de tripler les taxes sur l'essence, l'\u00e9picerie et le chauffage?</p>"
