On March 19, 2019, the Liberal government tabled a highly
political and targeted budget, as it prepares for the next
elections.
In essence, Trudeau played to his party's strengths by
allocating incentives to certain portions of the population, such
as the farmers of Quebec and Ontario, millennials and seniors.
Dairy and chicken farmers affected by trade deals will greatly
benefit from this budget. In essence, the government will set aside
$3.65 billion to help dairy, egg and poultry farmers who are
negatively impacted because of trade deals with other countries,
which make it easier for foreign producers to enter the Canadian
market. Many of the farmers who will benefit from this live in
Ontario and Quebec.
