As long as we are running $40 billion deficits, we are actually borrowing the money for carbon tax rebates.

Rock and a hard place. As much as I have reservations about PP, I don't see how we can afford Trudeau.

your austerity mindset blows man! But hey now... good on ya! From your referenced link... good on ya:

Quote
The eye-popping spending increases may seem like a problem but Khan {former deputy parliamentary budget officer and the executive vice-president of the uOttawa Institute of Fiscal Studies and Democracy} said it's sustainable as long as the economy continues to grow.

"It will work, it's functional and it's fiscally sustainable. We're a $3-trillion dollar economy," he said.

A lot of this spending is possible because of cuts made in the 1990s when Canada was in worse financial shape.

"Chrétien-Martin did the heavy lifting. That's what's given us the room now," Khan said.

waldo Q: PM Trudeau, do you consider your budget "fiscally responsible" given the plan to spend more now and into the future?

Quote from: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau
We have the lowest deficit in the G7, the best debt-to-GDP ratio and we've preserved our AAA credit rating. We're one of the three largest economies in the world with a AAA credit rating, which means that our plan is responsible

Not spending tens of billions in deficit every year = austerity lol.

They can't spend what they earn in revenue.... and just added  dental benefits, to the other dental benefits and child care and pharma.

Waldo thinks that if someone says he can borrow money, he must do it. He also thinks it is proper for future generations to carry his debt, just because he can.

Between 2019 and 2021, Argentina has experienced over 50% inflation and the value of its peso was cut in half. Their debt to GDP went down as well, it's easy when you devalue your currency.

debt servicing costs are more than manageable! Again, Canada has the lowest deficit in the G7, the best debt-to-GDP ratio and has preserved its AAA credit rating.

guys, guys... Poilievre keeps nattering on about everything in Canada being broken, although he's a tad loose on the specifics/details - and, of course, never speaks to PeePee/CPC "solutions". From Nipples immediate prior post it's clear he wants to drastically cut/eliminate social programs - and you, wilber? And you? How about you stand in for your guy Poilievre who's deathly adverse to offering any semblance of policy solutions and showcase what taxes he/YOU want to cut, what spending you want to cut/eliminate. Sure you can, yes?

c'mon guys, don't make me target the myth of the fiscal conservative... don't make me do that, hey! LOL!

uhhh, say what? Which has what to do with what? What?

Yup, just keep borrowing until we lose all that. Like I said, waldo believes in borrowing just because you can.

JT was born wealthy, I'd be willing to bet he has never taken out a mortgage or loan in his life. Unlike most Canadians, his income and pensions are indexed to inflation, why would anyone expect him to understand finances.

Simple, devalue your currency, your debt to GDP goes down even if your GDP doesn't rise. Of course everyone who doesn't have an income indexed to inflation is poorer, but so what. Seems you didn't learn anything from the nineties and what forced Chretien and Martin to slash spending. It was creditors saying if you don't get your spending under control, we will no longer buy your debt.

now do career politician Poilievre, hey! Here, let the waldo help you out with an update to the prior posted image... now also referencing PeePee's Shadow Minister for Finance, Jasraj Singh Hallan - who holds nothing more than an 'accounting diploma' from the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT). You're welcome!

geezaz waldo, does Poilievre have a 'deep bench', or what! LOL!
