Debt, Deficits, and Dilemmas: The Harsh Reality Behind Canada's Budget

Welcome to this special episode of Strictly Money, where we dissect the aftermath of Canada's federal budget announcement.

They discuss the ballooning debt, new capital gains tax rules and whether Canada is headed in the right or wrong direction when it comes to personal and economic prosperity.
