Apparently this is all going to magically happen while increasing program spending and also reducing gov't revenue streams (Kinda like paying off your credit card by buying more stuff and taking a paycut).
Hmmmmm, I wonder what changed in the last 14 days  ... If elections improve the economic outlook this much we ought to have them every month! We'll be pain free debt free by September no doubt. |
Haven't looked at the numbers, but how much of the NDP-influenced spending was removed?
