This all sounds like code for reducing the public service and cutting jobs. Is this of concern or is only concerning if Pierre starts cutting jobs within the government?

What? Did you read what he said? The issue isn't that the party wants to make cuts in lean times. The issue is this former Harper advisor's talking about just straight burning the public sector to the ground and doing so by cutting the head off the snake and letting it flop around until its death spasms stop.
