I've already pointed to some policies. I think the CCB had a far bigger impact than it's total dollar amount, as did the GIS changes. They both put money into the hands of people that tend to spend all of their money. If you combine that with huge infrastructure spending and the drive to attract IT talent, you get a small influence in a much larger picture.
Huge infrastructure spending? You mean like Trump is doing? There is no huge infrastructure spending. All the Liberals have done is label literally ANYTHING they want to spend money on as 'social infrastructure'. Where are the roads, highways, bridges, port upgrades? Do you people even understand the difference between putting money into social welfare programs which are a continuing drain on the budget, and putting money into improving highways, which improve transportation and thus encourage more economic activity?
The CCB has not put much more money into peoples pockets than the previous Conservative child tax programs. But you carry on about how you believe your hero has boldly sent the economy into overdrive in just about a year and a half. According to studies of the actual economic incentive program the Tories launched it was two years before it did anything and that was with $64 billion of spending.
Which means the impact of Trudeau's higher taxes and exploding red tape and bureaucracy hasn't really begun to be felt yet. Especially since it's been offset by low oil/gas prices. But those are going to rise over the next year, and so are interest rates.
