Well considering that the unemployment rate has continued to drop over the past year it seems like a red herring at best. People are working. Businesses are making money. Almost every expert would say that Canada will not have a recession on the horizon, and even for a US recession odds are it won't happen (about 70/30 in favour of no recession). Frankly the issue is that they were supposed to be able to cut $4B per year and can't do it.
