And these "investments" may not work out. Look at the last 10 years here.

Carney platform promises $130B in new spending, deficits until 2029 :Heart Attack:
- Thread starter DesRicardo
- Start date
The unusual is now the usual.
Dude, you are the one who said they haven't said so. Basically they have promised in 3 years to increase spending, reduce spending, and balance the budget, with tax cuts. And no transfer cuts, or program cuts.
I ain't buying it.
Yes they have promised to increase capital spending, reduce operational expenses.
As I said savings can be realized in multiple ways.
But how exactly they are going to do it isn't something anyone every says, before getting to power.
Its not like people will understand it anyway.
So the only relevant bit is that you want to vote conservative.
So just say that instead of "not buying it".
I don't believe in Liberal investing. You guys championed him as the master economist, but he is shaping up to be Trudeau 2.0 like I said months back.
Time for Change
Trudeau promised 2 or 3 years of modest deficits in 2015, how did that work out ?
no, we need de-regulation & getting govt the hell out of the way to grow
you can not grow an economy if private investors are unwilling to invest their money due to over-regulation and taxation
when will the loonie left learn? , central planning and big govt is a pathway to failure and crippling debt
"clean energy" is a money pit
government should not be putting taxpayer money at risk in green energy scams
Trudeau promised to balance the operating budget over a few years in 2015 , how did that work out ?
Trudeau made a mess of the public finances
Carney will absolutely the public finances and bury our kids and grandkids generation in a mountain of public debt and also cause the re-ignition of inflation
housing / pipelines get built by private investment, if govt will just get the hell out of the way
Trudeau drove hundreds of billions of investments out of Canada
De-regulation to get our massive amount of resources to market. Not a bad plan for a country blessed with some of the largest oil, gas and mineral reserves on the planet.
it gets worse
Liberals promise $130B in new spending and no timeline to balance the budget
- no timeline to balance the budget
money pit
cap growth in public sector employment?
the public sector has grown to become a bloated ineffective money pit
the size of govt needs to shrink, not grow
you can not grow govt faster than the private sector without a lot of real bad shit happening
but he still plans for future growth in the public sector
Carney will bankrupt this country
lets not forget why we had to get rid of Trudeau
It will be damn foolish to replace him with Trudeau 2.0

I don't believe him. It's that simple. I don't believe him, due to his record of previous statements, and his record in private equity, that his has the best interests of the nation at heart. I think the Liberal party at this juncture needs to be put out of office.
The core reason is simple. The Liberal party initiated and continued to defend the Carbon tax on moral and ethical grounds, as well as attack its opponents on that level. Until it was costing them votes. Worse is they haven't eliminated it, just paused it. Their new leader is on record supporting it, and has word saladed it into vague promises of regarding it, with no details.
I think he is lying. The party is lying. And nothing he has said has convinced me otherwise. Nor has anything you have said.
And I am not unique in this thought.
Reduction of deficit in government spending does not necessarily
translate to elimination of investment in the public and private sector.
How is perpetual growth of national debt (and debt servicing cost)
going to help us grow. You have any idea how much good the expenses
of interest payment incurred by ballooning debt can do?
Wrong.
Under DoFo, who has been deregulating and offering deals to developers at the behest of towns, housing starts are the lowest in the country.
Yet right wingers voted for DoFo here and he massively has increased Ontario debt.
Sounds a lot like a client of mine. The company CEO wasted millions and now the balance sheet looks like a tsunami hit it. Banks won't touch it with a 100 foot pole.
We have to stop with the liberal trick language first. This is spending. Call it what it is.
I don't trust Liberal with spending too many examples out here for us to play the sucker again. and again.
Time for Change.
Some people call them 'social services' and actually quite like them.
You know, things like schools, hospitals, health care, day care....
