Justin Trudeau Liberals and Liberal Cabinet Minister

John McCallum: Attaining that $1-billion surplus, however, is contingent on Justin Trudeau Liberals finding $3 billion in savings in 2019-2020, and $6.5 billion in savings over a four-year mandate, according to Huffington Post Canada. Ontario incumbent candidate John McCallum told reporters he is confident the Grits will be able to find the savings."It my experience from having worked in a bank, a university and the government that there are always savings to be found; that there are always ways to do things more efficiently," the former Liberal cabinet minister, Royal Bank chief economist and dean of McGill faculty of arts said."I'm confident that not every penny spent on external consultants is a penny well spent for the taxpayer of Canada," he added, by way of example. The Liberals project a $9.9 billion deficit next year, followed by a $9.5 billion deficit in 2017-2018, $5.7 billion deficit in 2018-2019 and a $1 billion surplus in 2019-2020.

Like the NDP, the Liberals would ensure that small businesses are not used to reduce personal income tax obligations. The Liberals said they would find the savings by ending partisan government ads, reducing the use of expensive external consultants, and going after tax evaders and tax loopholes used by high-income earners.
