2025 Budget - Liberal Carnage

2025 Budget - Liberal Carnage

Author: Sandy Hudson & Nora Loreto November 5, 2025 Duration: 47:19

In this episode, Sandy and Nora talk about the 2025 Liberal budget -- Mark Carney's first -- and how he blurs the line between Liberals and Tories like never before.


CORRECTION: One of our eagle-eyed listeners realized a figure I (Sandy) mention in this episode several times was misunderstood. In referencing a somewhat unclear infographic appearing on page 25 of the budget, I said that $5M was being allocated to dental care and several other figures. In fact, that infographic is meant to refer to the number of Canadians that use the dental care plan and services. There are no new dollars being allocated to the program. Apologies for the error! We were really working fast to try to understand what we could and get a relevant episode out asap. Thanks for always being such a great audience and stepping in to help when we need it. As our project slowly grows, we hope to eventually have a team that can make sure this kind of error doesn't happen. But the analysis remains the same. Much love!
