A debate on federal finances and spending. The Conservatives criticized the Liberals for running high deficits and increasing the national debt, arguing that this has driven up inflation and made life less affordable for Canadians. The Liberals countered that their spending is targeted at helping Canadians and that Canada has the strongest economy and fiscal position in the G7. Both sides traded partisan jabs but focused on substance, disputing the merits of federal spending and its economic impact rather than getting sidetracked on other topics.
