Commitment to education is necessary to help increase access to education and also decrease inequality that prevails in the areas where students are from poverty-stricken areas.
Healthcare and human service services is also another essential local service for the greatest portion of the budget.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

BY THE NUMBERS
Finance Minister Bill Morneau struck a
stay-the-course tone with his second
budget, Building A Stronger Middle Class.
This is the first federal budget to contain a
Gender Based Analysis, identifying through
data the ways in which public policies affect
women and men differently – further proof
that women are considered key to the
Liberals’ re-election efforts.
This will also be the last budget the Federal
Liberals will bring forward with a leaderless
opposition. The Conservatives and New
Democrats will be electing new leaders later
this year.
The Trudeau government has made
the middle class their focus and governing
mantra. To that end, Budget 2017 is largely
an extension of the 2016 Budget and
2016 Fall Economic Statement, building
out their previously announced spending on
infrastructure, innovation and skills training.
Canada-US relations remain the top priority
for the government, and what’s most
important about Budget 2017 is what it
doesn’t include.
With the Trump Administration’s tax
plan expected in mid-May, and NAFTA
renegotiations not expected to begin until
later in the year, it will likely be the 2017
Fall Economic Statement that will contain
specifics on defense spending, taxation,
and a more detailed response to the Trump
Administration’s trade and commerce
policies.

STAKEHOLDER REACTIONS
“From a taxpayers point of view this budget is a nightmare scenario, we have the Liberals borrowing way
beyond the $10M deficit promise, no plan to create the jobs we need in Canada right now, and we have
taxes going up – this is a bad day for the tax payers of Canada.”
- Hon. Rona Ambrose, PC, MP, Interim Leader of the Conservative Party of Canada
“I have been travelling the country and have heard from Canadians about the realities of job loss, crushing
household debt and retirement insecurity…Unfortunately, today’s budget failed to deliver the change
promised by the Prime Minister to start closing the gap between the rich and everyone else.”
- Tom Mulcair, Leader of the New Democratic Party of Canada
“Business needs a modern, well-trained and constantly-evolving workforce to compete in the
economy of the 21st Century. We commend the government for its measures on skills, but urge
it to do more to ensure our businesses can compete on all levels.”
- Perrin Beatty, President CEO, Canadian Chamber of Commerce
“The Federal Budget is broadly being viewed as a cautious step forward in Prime Minister
Trudeau’s mandate. With total expenditures of $304.7 billion, there was only $1.3 billion in new
spending announced. Some of the more controversial proposals that had been rumored - such
as a capital gains tax increase and the sale of airports - were not included in the budget, but
may in future budgets.”
- James Moore, former Conservative cabinet minister
“The payroll budgets of every business and the take home pay for Canadian workers will now drop
for six straight years, with an EI hike in 2018 and 5 years of CPP premium hikes starting in 2019.”
Dan Kelly, President, Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB)
