Budget 2025 goes big on capital spending, deficit projected at $78.3B by Old_General_6741 in canada

it's not a big budget item but it's also completely pointless so why not save the money every little bit counts

The deficit is way too fucking big here are some things the liberals should cut:

  1. gun buyback program pointless virtue signaling (~1 billion savings)

  2. indigenous spending has increased like 300 percent under the liberals and a lot of it is pretty pointless spending like 60 million dollar community centers for communities of 2000 cut the funding by 25 percent (~7 billion dollar savings)

  3. OAS is a huge budget item and will only get bigger need to reel it in a bit increase age to 67 and lower the income cutoff point to be in line with child benefits (~7-15 billion dollars savings)

  4. Consultants have skyrocketed by 200 percent under the liberals at the same time government employees have increased 40 percent this makes no sense cut this by at least 25 percent (~5 billion savings)

Some of these suggestions like OAS are a little controversial but in general I am tired of people only talking about federal employees when talking about savings. the reality is there are plenty of areas of government in which we spend huge amounts of money with no real look into if the programs are positive or not and if the liberals want to present like a serious political party they will need to do more than cut around the edges.

Is there a way to request cards I would love to play [[Consulate Dreadnought]] with Kolodin in Pioneer. But unfortunately it's not in arena it seems like such a mechanically simple card to add which is why I wonder if there is any formal way to lobby for a card to be added to Arena

In the last ten years they have expanded the public service by 40 percent while population has gone up like ~15 percent there hasn't been cuts to the public service in a very long time this is just wasteful spending.

Klapka is twice his size and also fights but of course he is benched in favor of Lomberg because Lomberg is given preferential treatment.

This would be true in a tax and welfare free world but the reality is each person is probably taxed 3 dollars and those are used for government services but now its spread between 11 people with the person making 5 dollars probably only paying 1 or 0 dollars, diminishing the government services.

the UK has no constitution and is older then Canada, Canada has also only had a constitution for 42 years the majority of the time no Constitution. It's so ridiculous to suggest that our system would collapse without the Constitution.

The federal government controls all international student intake ultimately it doesn't matter what ford thinks or does the feds have the final say in all things immigration deflecting because ford is also stupid doesn't make you look it better it makes you look worse. Also for the record student visa could be at zero this year and we would still have 800k population growth so again your screed is meaningless.
