Budgets are about choices; they reflect a government’s values and priorities. With a $250 billion federal budget, the Harper Government could choose to invest in programs like universal child care or pharmacare… or spend that money on corporate tax cuts, prisons, and fighter jets.
We’ve created this video and a poster to help illustrate the choices between this and that. Which would you choose?
