OTTAWA -- Canadians will soon get an update on the health of federal finances and the government's outlook for an economy facing high inflation rates, flooding in British Columbia and the emergence of a new variant of COVID-19.

"Our government's focus is to finish the fight against COVID and to support our recovery from the COVID recession," Freeland said in the House of Commons on Thursday "We know it's important to Canadians that we are careful and transparent with our nation's finances." Politically, the New Democrats are looking for more spending on aid to workers after benefits were cut off, with deputy leader Alexandre Boulerice chiding the Liberals for being "completely out of touch" with the needs of Canadians.

"It seems to me that you combine this with all the savings Canadians have right now and that's a lot of money in the economy in the short-term," said Robert Asselin, senior vice-president of policy at the Business Council of Canada and a former Liberal budget chief.

In place of spending, the Liberals are being asked for details about how to tackle supply-chain issues that have helped send the inflation rate to an 18-year high, which wasn't in the government's outlook in the spring budget.
