Federal Budget 2022: What to expect in Canada's latest spending plan

It's Budget Day in Canada, and as the Liberals prepare yet another pandemic-era spending plan, they need to figure out a way to balance promises targeting the rising cost of living with the volatility of an uncertain world, experts are warning.

Sources have Global News that there will be three big themes outlined on Thursday. The first will look at the country's "green economy," which will see more funding to invest in a new green fund to develop technologies like transit. The second, that may have Canadians really tuning in, is affordability and housing, with the government looking to building new homes including those in Indigenous communities.

The third theme is being called "Canada in the world," in other words, what is the country doing outside our borders including defence spending.

David Akin breaks down what to look for in the budget when it's tabled later Thursday and what is known so far.

Canada's spending spree a recipe for economic inferno for future generations.

More out less in, and bottomless taxes despite them printing more money than we could ever conceivably pay off.

Costs didn't go up much during the first year of the PANDEMIC (the time it should have skyrocketed). But they are trying to convince us this war is doing all of this. When the Iraq and Afghanistan wars didn't have this affect. We started seeing costs going up at a fast rate months before the war.

What to expect?
Mass insolvency of the Canadian populace.

As a Canadian if we go to war I’m not helping out the Trudeau regime, my reasons are endless! Thanks have fun!

[matbienczyk]

Expect corrupt politicians spending not their money!

[iainsmith]

it is hard to understand how far down this government wants to take us anc so many of us dont want to go there

[adda]

After seven years of Liberal promises, and no delivery of a higher standard of living, we don't need any more promises but a new government.

[ieeba]

How much of this new spending will go toward reducing our national debt?
