Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau are talking up the benefits of yesterday's federal budget.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau joined Freeland in promoting the budget, calling it a plan to help Canada and Canadians through the COVID-19 crisis and set the table for a strong comeback.
Trudeau calls it a historic plan for a historic moment.
Trudeau says it's important to make the right investments in what comes next.
He says his government won't make the mistake of cutting support too quickly like the previous government did following the great recession of 2008.
Freeland says the budget is about growth and jobs.
