OTTAWA -- Federal numbers released quietly by the Trudeau government late last month are painting a bleak picture of Canada's future -- one filled with decades of deficits. The report, published on the Finance Department website two days before Christmas, predicts that, barring any policy changes, the federal government could be on track to run annual shortfalls until at least 2050-51. If such a scenario plays out, the document says the federal debt could climb past $1.55 trillion by that same year -- more than double its current level. -
