WATCH: Scheer Says Trudeau Budget About Burying SNC-Lavalin Scandal

“Nothing in today’s budget can be taken seriously,” said Scheer.

After leading a mass walkout of Conservative MPs from Trudeau’s budget, Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer made a statement on the budget, calling it “the most expensive cover-up in history.”

Here’s what he said:

“Nothing in today’s budget can be taken seriously. Justin Trudeau is trying to bury the SNC-Lavalin corruption scandal under $41 billion of new Liberal spending, which Canadians will pay for through higher taxes if he is re-elected. This is the most expensive cover-up in history.”
