This is spending. Call it what it is.
The change has already been made.
Trudeau is no longer in power.
It is time for the Liberals to be in power to counter the threat down south.
Especially ideologically.
That is #1.
#2 is policy.
Per policy positions they are not trying to trick you.
They are saying it is spending too.
But spending is good especially when it is an investment.
If we are to become more independent from the US, which we do need to, and pronto, then we need these investments so we can grow.
The solution to everything isn't cutting taxes for the rich.
Private enterprise doesn't step up to address needs of the nation.
They address needs of their stakeholders.
So government spending in areas that give you long term economic value is the need of the hour, which the Liberals are promising.
Carney, with his credentials and ideological positioning, is therefore the right person for the job.
