There's nothing behind the numbers, and if you look at the cost assumptions on each pledge it's a complete joke.

I thought this part was pretty funny:

“This budget represents a package in line with the fiscal framework noted in the March Budget, but with a major set of changes in the mix. These changes result in more resources for the environment, for people, and for provincial actions, with less resources being given to the corporate sector.

It is likely that there will be net job creation relative to the Conservative Budget given the choices of child care, investment, and government spending, particularly if you believe corporate tax increases result in few job losses.”

Based on fairytale economics that no economist supports...
