The Liberal government unveiled its federal budget last week. The budget includes $57 billion in new spending, which the Liberals plan to offset with an additional $18 billion in new revenues from changes to the capital gains tax. ‘The West Block’ host Mercedes Stephenson speaks with John Manley, former Liberal finance minister, and Lisa Raitt, former Conservative deputy leader, about the proposed capital gains tax changes, the housing crisis, and how the budget might impact the Liberals’ polling numbers.
