-tens of billions of dollars to support industries

-billions in infrastructure spending

-billions in compensation to residential school survivors

-natural disaster recovery costs from what happened last fall in BC.





That doesn't even get into the absurdity of trying to frame non-COVID spending (which is obviously a far more productive thing to spend money on) as somehow a bad thing.
Yes, but what percentage goes specifically to the WE charity?
