It's sourced. Net debt and gross debt seems like an apt term for these things. It's not on Trudeau to account for gross debt, but upon the premiers including the Resistence (LOL) of Ford, Kenny and the other two...
I'm not hanging it all on Trudeau, he is just another politician trying to get elected. We are already consuming renewable resources faster than the planet's ability to replace them, thinking we can just keep growing our economies like it isn't happening is just willful ignorance.
