Liberals Defy Parliament: No Budget Before Summer

📝 DESCRIPTION
Liberals Defy Parliament: No Budget Before Summer—and Canadians are left in the dark once again.

This week, in a narrow but clear vote, the House of Commons passed a Conservative-led motion demanding a spring budget or fiscal update. It was a cry for transparency. For accountability. For leadership.

Instead? The Liberal government laughed it off.

House Leader Steven MacKinnon called the vote “non-binding” and told reporters MPs “make lots of points.” Finance Minister Champagne stayed silent. Prime Minister Carney deferred it all until fall. As if Canadians have time to wait while the economy spirals.

Let’s be clear: this is not normal. Canada is running a $61.9 billion deficit—55% over target. Our national debt has exploded past a trillion dollars. Families can’t afford groceries. Small businesses are choking on taxes and red tape. But your government can’t even be bothered to table a basic economic update?

This is what democratic decay looks like. Leaders who rule without listening. Cabinets that mock Parliament. Budgets delayed while inflation devours the middle class.

🔹 Why do we tolerate this level of disrespect toward voters and Parliament?
🔹 Should this government survive the upcoming confidence vote?
