Like WHAT the actual EFF?!?!

This guy's whole stick was that we were in massive crisis mode and we need a plan desperately and he's the guy with the plan

And now he's not even going to table a budget until next year? What the hell is that? What happened to the most serious crisis of our time?

This guy is a total fraud and the stupidest half of Canada fell for it. I cannot believe he's not even going to table a freaking budget. He's got no plan and he's just going to carry on that way.

"Budgets? We don't need no stinking budgets!"

It makes sense from a completely fascist POV: if his budget gets defeated in the HoC it's considered a vote of no confidence (I read that somewhere), triggering an election, and he's gonna run a deficit so bloated that it makes Whoopi look anorexic.

Well the thing is he knows perfectly well there's no chance of him being defeated between now and next march when he would have to produce the next budget unless he skips on that too.

So he's doing it because he doesn't want to have a plan that people can hold him to. If he puts out a plan that the deficit is going to be 60 billion and then for whatever reason he wants to rack it up to 100 billion he looks bad. But if he never says what it's going to be then people can't say he went over budget

I wonder if he's going to produce a budget next year.

He'll still have to get votes for spending but he only needs one other party to agree and the NDP isn't going to say no to any spending anytime soon and risk going to the polls.

How does a government spend money without voting on it in Parliament?  This is undemocratic.  They don't even have a majority, they need to be accountable to Parliament for their spending.

 The money will still have to be voted on, but they'll just say "vote yes for us to spend another 200 billion" without any plan or budget. 

They can get away with that this year because the ndp is in no position at all to go back to the polls.

With a new finance minister and the current trade war, I'm not surprised there won't be a budget right away (it would be even more of a guess than most budgets) but there should be something in a few months as things become more clear. Parliament still has to approve funding for programs that aren't already funded or require further funding.

He has said no budget this year. They will skip this year entirely and do a budget next year.

When was the last time you saw a government do that?

The budget that the buffoon will put forward behind close doors is a budget to try and finally bankrupt Canada in the next four years. Just saying.

Well yes they should have given a date, even if the rationale is that we're in turbulent times blah blah blah blah blah.

The budget is traditionally presented in March and as there has been no change in the govt other than the PM they can continue under the last one.
It would be a different story if the govt had changed hands, but it didn't, so pretending what you wished had happened must act like it did is silly.

If there is a new budget presented before then, it will be negotiated with other parties to ensure it passes.

There was no budget in 2025. The last one was presented last March, 2024 and there has absolutely been a change in prime minister since then.  And budgets have nothing to do with changes in prime ministers. 

I absolutely cannot believe you even said that. I keep thinking you've reached peak stupidity and you keep proving me wrong.

Yes, I would like to see a budget but wonder how accurate it could be. They could be more specific regarding proposed spending but don't know how you could forecast revenues considering the present turmoil. I'd also like to know how the tax cut is being financed.

It's a little funny watching you clutch this particular string of pearls so tightly given the Carney is Just like Justin shtick these last few months.

NOW there's a big difference? LMAO.

I get it alright - there's more than a few things that are undemocratic but look at the world we live in nowadays, democracy is on the wane and retreating around the world everywhere, as also evidenced by the respectability autocracy and dictators have come to enjoy and expect everywhere you look.

Remember the phrase race to the bottom? Is racing the only way out of a vortex?

Why would that be funny? Herbie said that there had been no change in prime minister since the last budget.  The last budget was presented in 2024. there has been a change of prime minister since then.  What part of that is untrue or in conflict with the idea that carney is like justin?

Nobody said anything about there being or not being a difference.  But there's no doubt that his statement that there's been no change in prime minister is wrong.  Justin was the previous prime minister, Carney is the current one. 

How is this remotely confusing for you? They may act similar but nobody has ever said they're actually the same person :) 

And just to be clear, if justin HAD remained prime minister i would have expected him to put out a 2025 budget at some point as well. 

So what are you saying, you just don't believe in the idea of gov'ts putting out budgets any more?

They're Prime Minister's not governments. Stop conflating them. You're not confused either you're simply being pig headed because you need to win...it's what you are. We all get that.

After decades of seeing how meaningless budgets all to often are I've come to realize there are other far more pressing  fundamental problems with our democracy than money.

I'm not assuming you voted for the liberals just stating 

I hope liberals voters take this time to start to reflect " did they make the best use of their vote"

We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have now done so much for so long with so little, we are now capable of doing anything with nothing.

The Libs do whatever they want now, the MSM will say it's because he's being heroic.

This "elbow's up" BS is the new covid... The media will back every ridiculous thing the Libs do and that will be the excuse that keeps on excusing.

Our country is an absolute joke.  Parliament has been shut down since late fall of 2024.
