Canada faces tough budget to cut deficit and save dollar
Canadian economist Michael Garth Turner outlines Finance Minister Mike Wilson's challenge to trim a 35 billion dollar deficit. With rising interest rates, a slipping dollar, and high taxes, Turner argues the budget must curb spending and raise revenue, including possible surtaxes and ending the $1,000 interest deduction. The piece warns of consequences if deficits persist and the currency falls.
