In fact, one year ago, the <a data-HoCid=\"263831\" href=\"/politicians/chrystia-freeland/\" title=\"Chrystia Freeland\">finance minister</a> stood in the House and presented a plan that would balance the budget in 2027. When asked whether that was by mistake or by design, the minister took great boastfulness in saying that it was deliberate and by design. Except now we learn that the budget will be balanced in the year never.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8056998\" data-originallang=\"en\">Does the government actually have a plan to ever balance the budget and bring down inflationary deficits so Canadians can keep their homes?</p>",

Lorsqu'on lui a demand\u00e9 si c'\u00e9tait une erreur, la ministre s'est targu\u00e9e d'avoir fix\u00e9 cette \u00e9ch\u00e9ance en toute connaissance de cause, sauf que nous venons d'apprendre que le retour \u00e0 l'\u00e9quilibre budg\u00e9taire est maintenant remis aux calendes grecques.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8056998\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le gouvernement a-t-il v\u00e9ritablement un plan pour \u00e9quilibrer le budget et r\u00e9duire les d\u00e9ficits inflationnistes afin que les Canadiens puissent garder un toit au-dessus de leur t\u00eate?</p>"
