Why Justin Trudeau is responsible for leaving razor blades outside a house on Halloween

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has been dealt another sharp blow amid Canada’s recent inflation battle and his declining opinion polls.

Trick-or-treaters in Calgary found a bowl filled with disposable razors instead of candy outside a home in the Bowness neighborhood. National Post reported.

Next to the bowl was a note written in black ink on a piece of cardboard blaming Trudeau for the bizarre offer:

“Sorry we can’t afford apples this year because of Trudeau. So this year only razors.’

Calgary police confirmed a report of the incident to the National Post, saying that “there is not enough evidence at this time to indicate that a criminal offense has occurred.”

Despite the potentially dangerous scene, no injuries were reported.

A mother told Calgary’s 660 NewsRadio that her children had barely put the razor blades in their pocket before she noticed and quickly placed them back in the bowl.

“You hear stories about pins or razor blades or whatever, but I’ve never encountered anything like that,” she said.

Some expressed outrage online about the Halloween trick.

“Imagine being so brain rotten that you would hand out razor blades to children and blame Trudeau,” one person commented.

‘The razors were probably more expensive than real candies. And kids don’t get it,” another added.

Next to the blue razor blades was a note blaming Trudau for the bizarre 'treat'. The note was scrawled in black ink on a makeshift piece of cardboard: “Sorry we can't afford apples this year because of Trudeau. So this year only razors'

A third user said: ‘Politics aside, what a resentful, hateful human being. This doesn’t help in any way.’

Last month, Trudeau’s government said the country’s five major supermarket chains, including Walmart and Costco, had made “initial commitments” to help stabilize food prices.

The five chains – including Metro, Loblaws and Sobeys – together represent 80 percent of the Canadian market.

Trudeau said in September that Canada could impose new taxes on the chains if they did not come up with a convincing plan to limit food price increases.

On October 5, Canada’s Innovation Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne said the five supermarket chains “are living up to their commitment to support efforts aimed at stabilizing food prices and proposing concrete actions.”

He promised that Canadians would soon see discounts on a number of food products, as well as price freezes and price-matching campaigns.

“The cost of groceries has risen dramatically in recent years and Canadians are struggling to put food on the table,” Champagne said in a statement.

“Canadians are rightly frustrated by this situation, and we are implementing solutions to bring them relief,” he added, saying the crackdown on major chains was “just the beginning.”
