Mark Carney Liberal
“Our spending growth has dropped from 8% a year to 2%. We will balance our operating budget a year early. We cut government staff by 10% and consultants by 20%. Our economy will grow faster than any other G7 country, and mortgages are getting easier to afford every month.”
“Mr. Speaker, I repeat: Spending is down from 8% per year to 2%. This is new information. The operational budget will be closed next year, one year ahead of schedule. There is a 10% reduction in civil service, a 20% reduction in consultants, the strongest growth in the G7 in the coming years, and mortgage affordability down every month in the current government’s time.”
