How Ottawa Spends 2000-2001: |
How Ottawa Spends 2000-2001 explores the
continued redefinition of the federal government's role in Canadian governance.
After years of deliberate down-sizing and withdrawal, Ottawa now has financial
surpluses. As well, the sense that Ottawa must demonstrate its relevance is
contributing to a desire for greater activism. Yet there are continued
pressures to either stay the course of the first mandate or go even further
with tax cuts. Contributors analyzes these cross-cutting pressures in a variety
of key policy areas. Now in its twenty-first edition, How Ottawa Spends
serves as an annual fiscal report card on federal government spending. |
