The government budget passes a confidence vote in #canada by a slim margin.
If the budget failed to get a voting majority, it would’ve forced an election for a new government only a few months after the last election.

First time I have ever felt the need to watch a budget vote live!
That’s a relief.

2025 #Liberal budget slashes key Indigenous programs: Jordan’s Principle, NIHB, Emergency Mgmt, Child & Family Services, Urban Off-Reserve Supports. Cuts risk access to essential services & stall reconciliation. #IndigenousRights #CanadaBudget
Yep. No big scary "they're gonna hack the federal government to pieces!" nonsense.
It's a small number and not even a real cut at all. If it were private industry, those jobs would be hacked immediately and you might get a package or you might not.

As an early measure, the government proposes a targeted, one-time initiative to recruit over a thousand highly qualified international researchers to Canada. The expertise of these researchers will help advance our global competitiveness and contribute to the economy of the future. To contribute to research excellence in Canada, Budget 2025 proposes to provide up to $1.7 billion for a suite of recruitment measures: Budget 2025 proposes to provide $1 billion over 13 years, starting in 2025-26, to the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council, Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, and Canadian Institutes of Health Research to launch an accelerated research Chairs initiative to recruit exceptional international researchers to Canadian universities. Budget 2025 proposes to provide $400 million over seven years, starting in 2025-26, to the Canada Foundation for Innovation to establish a complementary stream of research infrastructure support to ensure these recruited Chairs have the equipment they need to conduct research in Canada. Budget 2025 proposes to provide $133.6 million over three years, starting in 2026-27, to the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council, Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, and Canadian Institutes of Health Research to enable top international doctoral students and post-doctoral fellows to relocate to Canada. Budget 2025 proposes to provide up to $120 million over 12 years, starting in 2026-27, to the granting councils to support universities' recruitment of international assistant professors, as appropriate.
RESEARCHERS LOOK!!! 👀👀

Improving Foreign Credential Recognition Many newcomers to Canada already have extensive training in sectors where we are experiencing labour shortages, including doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals. However, many face challenges in getting their training and experience recognised in Canada. Over half of immigrants with a bachelor's degree or higher are overqualified for their jobs, which is costing Canada's economy billions of dollars every year. Improvements to foreign credential recognition are essential to ensure that immigration can effectively help address labour shortages and support the Canadians that rely on goods and services from those sectors. As announced on October 27, 2025, Budget 2025 proposes to provide $97 million over five years, starting in 2026-27, to Employment and Social Development Canada to establish the Foreign Credential Recognition Action Fund to work with the provinces and territories to improve the fairness, transparency, timeliness, and consistency of foreign credential recognition, with a focus on health and construction sectors. This funding will be sourced from existing departmental resources.
We've needed this fixed for so long now. Like it's atrocious what we do to these qualified foreigners. Let's hope this works.

Conservative crosses the floor to become a Liberal in Canada because of budget 2025.
Poilievre knows this is a good budget for Canada. But of course he's gonna be a dick.
NDP also know this is a good budget. But they'll also be dicks? Or no?

Everyone will crow that "Carney cut corporate taxes! So terrible!"
What he did though is force them to invest in Canada to get that tax break. That's wonderful. They have been sitting on money for a long time now. They want a tax break? They gotta spend on productivity.

Currently, to receive approval, major projects must undergo numerous reviews and assessments that often happen one after the other, instead of all running in parallel. A core mission of Canada's new government is to accelerate the delivery of major projects. With the Building Canada Act, we are fast-tracking nation-building infrastructure projects by streamlining federal review and approval processes. This will increase regulatory certainty, helping attract capital and strengthening our industries. This is done all while maintaining strong environmental protections, upholding Indigenous rights, and creating opportunities for Indigenous Peoples to derive economic benefits from major project development. The government also undertook a review aimed at eliminating red tape. Ministers have identified approximately 500 recent improvements and forward-looking actions to reduce regulatory red tape. These include getting agricultural products to market faster and aligning transportation regulations with international standards to reduce costs and make it easier for Canadian companies do business internationally.
Anyone claiming they are opposed to this is also lying to you. Legitimately government at any level can have far too many regulations in place, often in duplicate. You try and be a small to medium business owner just trying to build an apartment building and see how you like it.

Labour productivity growth Chart.
This chart from the budget is interesting. What happened to UK productivity after 2007? I mean, it wasn't being part of the EU. I know 2008 was tough, but still. Other European countries didn't get kicked so much.
But yeah... those Canada numbers. Sigh.

Canada's new government is taking decisive action to keep Canadians safe: Through Canada's $1.3 billion Border Plan—an unprecedented investment in our borders—and new investments in Budget 2025, we are hiring 1,000 new Canada Border Services Agency officers, modernising border technology, and strengthening intelligence-sharing to stop illegal guns, drugs, and human smuggling before they reach our streets. We are also hiring 1,000 new RCMP personnel to expand policing capacity and strengthen federal enforcement where Canadians need it most—from suppressing gun and drug trafficking and disrupting money-laundering networks, to boosting investigative capacity against professional enablers of organised crime. As fraud becomes more sophisticated and impacts more Canadians, especially seniors and newcomers, we are launching a National Anti-Fraud Strategy to implement stronger protections for consumers. We are creating a new Financial Crimes Agency that will be Canada's lead enforcement agency on complex financial crimes. It will bring together the expertise necessary to investigate money laundering, fraud, and online financial scams. Our government has launched an ambitious bail reform strategy to ensure that Canadians are safe in their communities. This includes making bail laws stricter and sentencing laws tougher for repeat and violent offending, to support the front lines and to invest in long-term prevention.
Most people on here aren't even aware this has even happened.

Anyone claiming to be opposed to what's listed here is lying to you. I'm pretty damn tired of scammers, fraudsters and money launderers. We're all tired of the illegal guns smuggled here.

Also, young Canadians, go into the trades. There will be soooooo much work for you.
And go into defence. Lots of possible manufacturing jobs with that too.
