premise: It says, and I agree with my colleague from the New Democratic Party on this, that instead of cutting a total amount of $48 billion between now and the year 2003, cutting $48 billion in higher education, social assistance and health, the government will only be cutting $42 billion.
hypothesis: The government will only be cutting 41.99 billion.
reason: 41.99 is close to but not exactly 42 billion, the AI is confused.
