Dear John,

The Carney government’s first federal budget has been tabled – and despite the promise of “a new approach,” it continues the same costly economic strategy Canadians have endured for years.

In Pulling Back the Curtain on the Carney Government’s First Budget, Fraser Institute economists show how Ottawa’s new spending and borrowing plans mirror the Trudeau-era model – with bigger government, higher deficits, and little relief for taxpayers or businesses.

Carney Government’s “Generational Investment” Will Land Squarely on the Backs of Younger Canadians explains how these policies will saddle future generations with growing debt and fewer opportunities.

Read both these commentaries to understand what this budget really means for Canada’s economic future, and be sure to share them with your friends and colleagues.

Sincerely,

Niels Veldhuis
President
The Fraser Institute
