Federal Deficit Drops

The federal deficit is $5 billion lower than was forecast.

Prime Minister Trudeau says the numbers show his government’s economic policies aimed at the middle class are working.

Trudeau says the Harper Government gave benefits and advantages to the wealthy and the result was slow growth.

The P-M also vowed to press ahead with tax reform, saying the current system favours the wealthy and that’s not fair.
