Balanced Budgets

Maxime Bernier was the first declared leadership candidate to sign Generation Screwed’s Future Generations Protection Pledge. 

He committed to: 

1. Present a balanced budget to the House of Commons within 24 months after taking office – stopping the federal debt clock; 

2. After the budget is balanced, commit to running ONLY balanced budgets at all times outside of war or natural disaster; and

3. Legislate a debt repayment schedule, dedicating a portion of annual revenues towards eliminating the debt.
