David Dodge appears on BNN Bloomberg to talk about why Canada's federal government needs to “postpone some of the expenditure enhancements” from the last budget in order to help get inflation back under control.
He says that elected officials, “don't like the alternative of having to restrict spending in order to help control demand," and "the best we can hope for is they don't add fuel to the fire by providing a bunch of tax cuts or expenditure increases along the way."
