Poll: Spend vs. cut?

The federal Liberals Tuesday unveiled a budget which includes an $18.1 billion deficit.

"It is a plan that puts people first — that invests in Canadians and in the things that matter most to them," Morneau told the House of Commons in his budget speech.

The budget shows the Liberals believe the idea that spending money is good for the long-term future of Canadians.

"We've shown to Canadians that making investments in them, making investments to allow more Canadians to be working, has exactly the positive impact that we want it to have," Morneau told a news conference Tuesday when pressed on that point.
