Fall economic statement is not required by law, but it's not clear when one may come, if at all.

The House of Commons remains in gridlock despite the Liberals surviving confidence votes last month .

Conservatives are traditionally seen as better stewards of the economy, while the Liberals fall into a more progressive camp that’s in touch with the social needs of the electorate.

The Liberals have slashed targets for the number of new permanent residents coming into the country, aiming to essentially freeze population growth for two years .

That could be enough to add $10 billion to the federal deficit by 2028-29 and violate the Liberals ’ fiscal anchors.

Immigration cuts are aimed at easing pressure on the housing market and other government services, it also risks diminishing the tax base.
