  • Govt may schedule fall fiscal update as budget office says CAD40b deficit anchor is being broken. That was before PM Trudeau on Thurs proposed more than CAD5b in sales tax breaks and CAD250 household checks. Economists question why Chrystia Freeland still hasn't released the final deficit for the fiscal year that ended in March.
  • While the fiscal plan may trigger a confidence vote in Justin Trudeau's minority Liberal govt, Bloc Quebecois doesn't want election over holiday season. NDP also said it won't force an election for now.  
  • Trudeau's Liberals have been unable to advance legislation for weeks as Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives use what the government calls a filibuster around documents it’s been asked to turn over. That makes it unclear how the new package of consumer relief will become law.
  • Polling aggregator 338Canada shows Conservatives likely to win majority government if election were held now.
  • Sample headlines: Trudeau saves Christmas from the tax Grinch, but can he save himself? (Calgary Herald); More than half of Canadians say Trudeau should be replaced as Liberal Party leader, poll shows (Globe and Mail); Trudeau says he could have acted faster on immigration changes, blames 'bad actors' (Canadian Press).
