OTTAWA—The Liberal government is championing its values and—its spending—in a federal budget that reads like a campaign-friendly road map designed to ensure that no woman, scientist, or national wildlife area gets left behind.

“It is a plan that puts people first—that invests in Canadians and in the things that matter most to them,” Morneau told the House of Commons on Feb. 27 after he tabled the 2018 federal budget.
