Fiscal Framework and Liberal Party

Liberal party: Harper, NDP Leader Tom Mulcair and Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau all converged on Calgary, where the Globe and Mail-hosted debate is scheduled for Thursday, according to Toronto Star. Trudeau told reporters his promises are all costed within a fiscal framework the party released weeks ago. But issues breaking outside of the economic ambit, such as a federal court ruling on the right of women to wear face coverings at citizenship ceremonies, crept into the campaign dialogue. That framework includes a proposal to run deficits for the next three years, in order to pay for a $60 billion infrastructure spending plan. All of our commitments, every commitment we make and every announcement across this campaign, is not only fully costed, but fits into that detailed framework that we announced weeks ago, before any other party did. The Liberal party was the first party to put out a complete fiscal framework and our opponents know that very well, they’ve been attacking us every single day, said Trudeau.
