Canadian political finance plans outline deficit reduction aims
The Liberal, Reform, and Progressive Conservative positions in 1993 stress cutting deficits through infrastructure renewal, supporting jobs and growth, and tightening spending. Reform touts a zero deficit path with over six billion in annual cuts from an 160 billion plan. Liberals push two track fiscal policy pairing growth with debt control. PC proposals include $1.1 billion in bureaucratic cuts, a 5% operations cut, and freezes on aid and defense spending.
