Face à l’inflation en hausse, à la faim croissante et aux inégalités grandissantes, le Canada, comme d’autres pays, traverse une crise du coût de la vie. Quelle est la progression de cette flambée inflationniste ? Certains avancent que la rupture des chaînes d’approvisionnement à la suite de la pandémie de Covid-19 et la guerre en Ukraine sont à l’origine de cette crise, tandis que d’autres soutiennent que les entreprises ont profité de l’inflation galopante pour augmenter leurs prix et enregistrer des profits sans précédent, alors même qu’une famille moyenne peine à se nourrir. En utilisant des outils d’analyse critique du discours politique, cet article examine les discours parlementaires de l’ancien premier ministre Justin Trudeau afin d’explorer les diverses dimensions de la tendance inflationniste au Canada, notamment les crises en lien avec l’alimentation, le logement et le coût de la vie, ainsi que la manière dont celles-ci sont (ré) organisées et façonnées par les forces néolibérales. Étant donné le fonctionnement interdépendant de l’ordre mondial néolibéral, les crises qui émergent au Canada ne sont pas un cas isolé, mais offrent un exemple pertinent de la façon dont cette polycrise se développe à l’échelle mondiale. Cet article incite aux dirigeants d’États d’envisager des propositions politiques susceptibles de s’attaquer aux causes profondes de ces crises.
