About this listen

Budget Day is finally here — and Canada’s on edge. Mark Carney’s long-delayed budget lands tomorrow, and many say it could decide whether his government survives.

Mike Wixson and Nick Dolinski break down what’s at stake: Could this budget spark a non-confidence vote? Why are some parties ready to abstain instead of act? What happens if the budget is voted down — and Canadians are sent back to the polls? We trace past confidence crises, debate whether anyone has real solutions, and ask: Is Carney’s “belt-tightening” budget about fiscal reality… or political survival?
