    Carney did claim recently $28B cuts will be comming. Liberal heavy handed behaviour towards unions smells of authoritarianism… so yeah freedom curbing is coming, we’re just not sure on packaging and potency

      Huh, I thought I was going crazy, but it appears I’m not the only one who thought so. All the sources I can find right now seem to say he’s going to be running a pretty big deficit. Although it seems like the capital expenditures budget is going to be where a significantly higher portion of the budget will be spent.

      Maybe the cut was solely to operating expenditures, even though the total to expenditures was increasing?
