About this listen

 Oakley dives into the newly tabled federal budget — promised to be “big, bold, and beautiful” — but is it really? John and his guests unpack what it means for Canadians, small businesses, and the economy. Guests include: Franco Terrazzano, Federal Director, Canadian Taxpayers Federation, on ballooning federal debt, spending hikes, and what Ottawa didn’t cut. Richard Kurland, Immigration Lawyer and Member of Lawyers for Secure Immigration, on why 74% of Indian student visas are now being denied and how federal mismanagement created a housing crunch. Catherine Swift, President of the Coalition of Concerned Manufacturers and Businesses of Canada, on why the budget fails small business, investment, and growth — calling it “meh” instead of monumental.
