Nothing wrong? Out of context?Big whoop. Balancing the budget is less important that taking care of the people. And also this is a cherry picked rightie lie to pick a few words out of context as if these idiots have any clue about anything. Here is the full quote:
"The commitment needs to be a commitment to grow the economy, and the budget will balance itself. This way [the way the Conservatives were doing it], they're artificially fixing a target of a balanced budget in an election year and they're going through all kinds of twists and bends to get it just right, and the timing just right in the announcement. And that's irresponsible. What you need to do is create an economy that works for Canadians, works for middle class Canadians, allows young people to find a job, allows seniors to feel secure in their retirement."
Nothing Trudeau said there was wrong.
Yes you know the talking points without the fact checks. That's pretty much it. Thanks for proving my point.
There was no context because he was speaking nonsense to make his supports feel good. All he did as usual was blame conservatives and say the budget will balance itself without explaining how that would happen. Everything he said after that has nothing to do with balancing a budget. It's vague motherhood statements to appease the uneducated.
btw he said "the budget will balance itself" by 2019. He missed that target by $20 billion.
You take care of people by balancing a budget so that there is more money going to people rather than paying off the interest on debt. He's had a decade to do that and has failed miserably.
And guess what...10 years later, the budget has not balanced itself.
