The NDP has voiced sharp concerns over a budget plan proposed by Mark Carney, claiming it would force nearly $43 billion in spending cuts over the next three years. Critics warn that such drastic reductions could undermine essential public services and destabilize the economy. The controversy has fueled intense political debate and public demonstrations at rallies, with many questioning the long‐term consequences of the plan. Observers say the issue reflects deep partisan divides over fiscal responsibility and government intervention in times of economic uncertainty.
NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh argued Thursday the plan could mean cuts to health care, since health transfers to the provinces come from the federal government’s operating budget
SASKATOON - The NDP says it estimates that Liberal Leader Mark Carney's plan to balance the operating budget will result in nearly $43 billion in spending cuts within three years.
