Given all JT talks about these days is the "middle class" - a concept he knows as much about as he does having a real job or struggling to make ends meet - you can be sure that the budget will be couched in these terms. That means the rich (anyone making more than $200k) and private sector job creators will be hardest hit. If Canada is serious about attracting high tech businesses seeking to flee Trump's America or encouraging investment from the private sector or even local entrepreneurs to build businesses this is sure not the way to go about it. We will be left with the state as the most attractive employer and a command economy that continues to struggle. The brain drain south may pick up pace regardless of the clown in the White House. The good news is that the Liberals will finally put the NDP out of business. The bad news is the Cons look determined to put themselves out of business. JT's lack of accountability and mishandling of the economy are the stuff Tea Parties are made of
