Risk-free’ budget will put money into infrastructure and job creation: Jim Flaherty

Aaron Vincent Elkaim/The Canadian PressFinance Minister Jim Flaherty tries on a pair of shoes with Andrew Violi president of Mello Walk Shoes at a pre-budget press event in Toronto on Friday Feb. 7, 2014.
The federal budget, being tabled Tuesday, will put money into job creation and infrastructure while remaining risk-free, Finance Minister Jim Flaherty told political talk shows Sunday.
Federal budget will lay out Tory plan to woo middle class voters
They have seen the enemy and his names are legion — or, more precisely, his target audience is the moderately conservative suburban swing voter, on whose shoulders the Tory majority rests. Although Justin Trudeau has yet to say how he intends to rescue the middle class from the depredations of the one per cent, we know that’s his plan. Trudeau and his MPs talk about it constantly — so much so that, even in the absence of a policy proposal, they’ve shoved the economic goalposts squarely towards centrefield. Last fall’s throne speech signalled a sudden high-level Tory interest in “consumers,” which is their code for “middle class.” We know income splitting for married couples is on tap, but that’s both old news and a bird not yet in the hand; therefore they’ll need more. Further increases in the duty-free limit for cross-border shoppers and other measures to offset the impact on a lower dollar on travellers, might be one place to start.

“This year we’re approaching balance,” Flaherty told Global’s The West Block. “If we really, really pushed it and took some risk, we can balance the budget earlier perhaps, but we don’t want to do that. We will balance next year in 2015.”
Flaherty told CTV’s Question Period that the budget’s emphasis will be on the economy and job creation, but stressed that the government is being “careful” and “cautious.”
“We’ve looked at hundreds of issues and some of the most important ones are relating to jobs, relating to young people, relating to apprenticeships, relating to internships, relating to getting people that first job even though they’re well educated and so-on,” he said.
Flaherty noted that a recent government study found between 700,000 and 800,000 Canadians were ready to join the workforce if given the opportunity and said this highlights that government needs “to do a better job at matching the people who want to work with the jobs that are available.”
To do this, he said the government is looking at ways to help young people, aboriginals and people with disabilities find their first jobs.
“There will be some emphasis placed on giving people a chance, a start in life, in Canada,” he said.
He added that the budget would also support “major economic infrastructure projects.”
