Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canadians should be ready for some “challenges” and “sacrifices” in a speech outlining some of his government’s priorities for the upcoming federal budget.
Carney touted that his government is preparing to “build a stronger economy” against the backdrop of “a more dynamic, a more competitive, a more hostile world.”
“If we don’t act now, the pressures will only grow,” he said in an address to university students in Ottawa on Wednesday night.
Carney says Budget 2025 is about making life affordable, getting immigration under control and helping newcomers succeed.
Meanwhile, those of us who've lived here all our lives are getting gouged by taxes as services crumble.
