Hello,
Debate on the federal budget began Tuesday morning in the House of Commons, with the opposition parties discussing the document and proposing amendments.
Conservative Leader Erin O’Toole indicated earlier that his party would propose changes to the government’s plan for economic recovery, and said that the budget was an “out-of-control debt plan without any real stimulus.” Bloc Quebecois Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet is instead focusing on health care, and the fact that the budget doesn’t include increased healthcare transfers to provinces.
