On top of the $1.8B in the 2016 budget (actively being spent)
And the $4B in the 2017 budget (actively being spent).
He announced something that’s already happening and nobody noticed because a reporter said the term “blank cheque.”
Neat.

I was going nuts this morning, trying to figure out why the hell everyone was reacting the way they were, then I realized: they don’t know he’s announcing something govt already did.
People didn’t know $1.8B was from 2016 and another $4-billion was from 2017.
He didn’t say.

Anyway, my entire feed is people being inspired by the @NDP promising to spend $1.8-billion to end boil water advisories on First Nation reserves
While the actual government is spending $5.8-billion to end boil water advisories on First Nation reserves.
Nothing matters...

I think we know who the REAL bad guy in all this is: the media.
For the love of God focus on that and don’t ask the NDP if going from $5.8-billion to only $1.8-billion is actually a cut, or merely funds already planned.

By the way, because I’ve had some people ask, you can actually check this stuff at Canada.ca/water-on-reser…
They have bright colorful graphs that somebody can show to the NDP. You can see 2016 when the $1.8B was announced and 2017 when an extra $4-billion was added. #cdnpoli

Could somebody on the media tour hold this graph up for @theJagmeetSingh & ask him to point to whether the line will be under his government if he adds the extra $1.8-billion to the $5.8-billion already being spent.
Current zero line is 2021.
Where’s the NDP date? #cdnpoli
