The Budget

During Members’ Statements, Dan Muys (Conservative) spoke against the federal budget, saying it lacked a credible fiscal anchor, a path to a balanced budget, and a full accounting of government borrowing. He said debt interest this year would cost over $60 billion, more than spending on health care or defence, and argued that borrowing would raise interest rates and taxes, increasing costs for people in his riding.Written by AI from the debate.
