These are all projections. As I indicated, your government failed on the 2023 objectives. I just received on Monday from a senior official a lack of confidence that these numbers will also be achieved.
A hundred days ago exactly, the government unveiled the initial details of the CER, the comprehensive expenditure review, in the budget, yet here we are today with your own department stating that your own spending reductions will not be met despite the continuous forecasts you're putting forward. This isn't just me doubting your savings. It's your own senior officials, which should be very concerning for you.
How do you expect Canadians to believe that your government will actually lower spending as you've promised if your own Treasury Board officials don't?
