Dufferin Caledon MP Kyle Seeback has some strong feelings about the federal government’s recent budget announcement.
Speaking to Country 105, Kyle says he’s disappointed to hear the Liberal’s are expanding the deficit yet again.
He says the national debt has more than doubled over the past nine years with the government spending $54-billion a year to pay interest on the debt.
Kyle says that’s like making the minimum payment on your credit card.
Housing was another big part of the government’s budget announcement saying they plan on spending $8.5 billion in for housing sector.
Kyle says part of that is a national blueprint to cut down on time and get homes built faster.
However, he says the problem with that is builders already have hundreds if not thousands of approved blueprints from houses that have been built over the past 20 years.
The Conservative government has a plan to incentivize municipalities to build homes.
Kyle added they would sell off government lands and buildings to be turned into housing.
Meanwhile, the much talked about carbon tax was another issue on his mind.
He says the PC’s plan on axing the tax which he says gets passed on from farmers having to pay it, to the truck drivers that pay to deliver the food to the stores all the way down to the consumers who pay while driving to the store to pick up their food.
