Chrystia Freeland Still Immune From Latest Interest Rate Hike Having Cut Disney+ Subscription Last November

By Andrew Scott

Ottawa - Smugly binge watching Crave, Netflixand HBO Max in her Summerhill home Wednesday, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland is feeling content today knowing that she and her family remain immune from the impact of the Bank of Canada’s latest 25 basis points hike, thanks to her prescient move of cancelling her Disney + subscription last November.  

“Sure,” states Freeland, between bites of Smartfood popcorn while waiting for the next episode of White Lotus to begin, “inflation and the rising cost of just about everything has impacted my family, just as it has affected all Canadians. But in my case, the prudent decision to cut our household budget by $11.99 per month has thankfully offset the fact that groceries are now up 10% from this time last year, the cost of living in Toronto is at an all-time high, and that our country is most likely heading into a 2023 recession.”

While Freeland acknowledges that she was upset to have missed out on the season finale of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law as a result of her decision, she remains steadfast in her resolve that cutting costs during this difficult time is the responsibility of each and every Canadian.
