In your words, the budget is more of a political statement or a political paper. You have a government that ran on a slogan of “spend less and invest more”, but then, when Canadians were not looking, it changed definitions to reallocate $94 billion from expenses to investments.
Would you agree that it was just for political reasons, then? There's no real benefit to the country in doing that, especially when you end up with two different accounting principles being used.
