The government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau provided few details on a campaign promise of C$78 billion in fresh spending on everything from new housing to electrical vehicle rebates. Conservative opposition leader Erin O'Toole accused the Liberal government of stoking inflation "instead of delivering a plan to combat the cost of living crisis and secure our country's recovery". "I think the fiscal track might be more challenging than someone would look at today," said Robert Asselin, senior vice president of policy at the Business Council of Canada.
