Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre met with Prime Minister Mark Carney to discuss the upcoming Nov. 4 budget, after the two debated affordability measures and the size of the federal deficit during Question Period.

“We will be calling on Mr. Carney to introduce an affordable budget for an affordable life for Canadians, that includes bringing down the deficit to the level Liberals promised it would be at in their last fiscal update,” Poilievre told reporters on Oct. 22 prior to Question Period.
