Panel: Sifting Through the Sludge of Budget 2025 (The North State Podcast)

This week on The North State, I brought together a panel of journalists to go through the Carney Liberals' first budget. RSS Feed Here. Apple Podcasts link here.

Description

It's been a week since the federal Liberals released the 2025 budget. In that time we've heard a lot of coverage, some useful, some not. In the first North State panel, we discuss the potential impacts in this budget, its massive investments in the military, abandonment of the environment and the complete lack of health considerations. Karyn Pugliese (APTN News national affairs correspondent), Arshy Mann (co-founder and host at The Hatchet) and Ian Barclay (editor at Avant-Garde Press) join the show to dissect the budget and the news coverage surrounding it.
