The biggest issue with these spending announcements was that at certain points in time they were a little more palatable because the money was essentially free to borrow.
But then it started coming to a point where even with criminally low interest rates the debt servicing costs started becoming one of the top budgetary line-items and that starts becoming a serious problem.
Now with interest rates rising its definitely a problem and they cant keep making frivolous spending commitments.
But again, nobody cares. That is 'Future Canada's' problem.
In regards to immigration? Its fantastic, we need it. The only real issue that Canada is going to face with regards to immigration is that we really have to determine what we're going to do about housing.
Canada is an expensive place to live.
