Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Chyrstia Freeland will provide a fall fiscal update on Tuesday as the cost of living dominates Canadian politics.
It’s expected her address will focus on housing and affordability as Canadians continue to struggle with high prices.
The federal Liberals caution there is not much money that can be spent. Freeland says they won’t be able to do everything to rectify the situation.
The GST has been lifted on charges for rental developments and in Atlantic Canada including PEI, the carbon tax has ended for the next three years on home heating oil.
Conservative leader Pierre Pollievre has called on the government to scrap the carbon price and bring down interest rates and inflation by balancing the budget.
