I think these are for the finance officials here.
The Business Council of Canada said, “The pandemic ignited an explosion in public spending and debt. The federal debt-to-GDP ratio was 30 per cent before COVID-19 but now [is over] 50 per cent.” They're clear that what we need is an economic growth strategy, rather than a stimulus strategy.
Since we were told by the finance minister that the stimulus package was pre-loaded—that's why we spent so much more than the rest of our G7 partners—are we going to be growth-focused going forward?
