In this monologue podcast, Russell Matthews analyzes Canada's new budget, highlighting its potential impacts on affordability and quality of life for Canadians. He points out the budget's dual nature, with some policies aimed at increasing productivity and wages through corporate tax reductions, while others, particularly the $78 billion deficit, risk deepening the economic hole by potentially increasing the cost of living. Matthews expresses skepticism about the government's ability to manage investments effectively and questions the long-term benefits of increased debt, drawing parallels to past unfulfilled promises. He emphasizes the importance of balancing wage growth with the cost of living and advocates for fair regulation across industries to foster economic growth without risking inflation.
