Ok I'll bite. How does Canadian policy cause global inflation?
The only angle that I can think of is that we've had a larger impact on carbon production than most other countries, and at least when it comes to global food inflation, climate change is having a noticable impact. So one might be able to argue that our role in climate change is causing food inflation. But I doubt anyone has actually done any peer reviewed studies on that so it's likely just assumptions at best.

I do think all levels of government have made some bad decisions that are unique to Canada, but yes they are. Our housing crisis is probably the worst example.
With an argument that compelling how can I not be convinced! /s
