Transparency is not an option—it is a responsibility owed to Canadians. That is why the concerns raised these past couple of weeks about the federal government’s finances require serious attention. It seems to be a recurring pattern of recent Liberal governments. I asked how construction costs climbed from $9.7 billion to $12.8 billion to $21.4 billion to $34.2 billion. The impact of this Liberal governments’ generational spending is something that should concern all Canadians.
