> this is the kind of tone deaf, consumer blaming crap that is going to get our current government booted out and replaced with a regressive, populist conservative government. Hooray. But I guess they deserve it?

But it’s also very true that they made the decisions that lead to this.

I’m Canadian so I’m in a similar boat to your country.

We’ve had a terrible government for thr past 10 years and they’ve made terrible spending decisions that have ruined Canada. I like your country, though, we’ll have to wait 3 more years to start to undo the damage the liberals have down to Canada so consider yourself lucky you aren’t from here:(

Rates were at historical lows while a normal Historical rate was around 5%.

If you planned your life around rates that were at levels never seen before then you did make a mistake and people should bear the brunt of that.

That was outright gambling I’d you managed your life around rates not returning to historical norms.

I feel that we should not treat people like helpless children and instead treat them like adults
