Economists, including Parliamentary Budget Officer Yves Giroux, have said that it could be difficult to achieve Carney’s spending promises without significant cuts.
Notice how it says “could be difficult” and not “absolutely impossible”.
Notice the language: “without significant cuts”. The PBO did not say “without cuts”. This implies that cuts are assumed, it’s just a matter of degree.
Anyway you also still refuse to address the contradiction inherent to your claim about “personal benefit” to unions raising the alarm.
Not saying you’re a bad faith actor whose entire purpose on these forums is to sow doubt and muddy the waters, but I am saying that your actions are virtually indistinguishable from someone who is.
Edit: huh, so another thing about the sentence you quoted is that it’s not even a direct quote from the PBO. Here’s a direct quote:
“To balance or to pay for these types of additional spending there would need to be severe cuts to the public service, significant cuts,” Giroux said.
When you can provide a single piece of anything to support your point I am all ears.
Read the article.
Unfortunately for you, I did.
Notice how it says “could be difficult” and not “absolutely impossible”.
You have now used up all good faith.

Yeah, that was in June, they hadn’t updated things yet and the 15% cuts hadn’t been announced either
Again, not saying you’re a bad faith actor, but
