Budget officer Jean-Denis Frechette's report also says the Liberal decision to introduce a risk adjustment that lowered the projected budgetary balance by $6 billion a year was excessive and eroded the independence of using private-sector forecasts.

The budget office report also estimates the positive economic impact of those measures will be more modest than the Liberals predict.

The analysis projects the budget will create or maintain 86,000 jobs over the next two years, rather than the 143,000 projected by the government.
"Maintain" scares me as in we needed billion of dollars of more debt so people don't get fired?

Or is like a construction job coming to an end, but due to Fed money, the company gets another job and therefore people stay employed?
