This volume is the thirteenth in the series on federal government spending and policy performance compiled by Carleton University's School of Public Administration. This year's edition considers the politics of competitiveness - the ways in which international forces and trends pose particular challenges to federal policy makers. Articles are provided by experts on a variety of topics, including staff relations under the Tories, federal attempts to grapple with unemployment and the changing global economy, the evolving relationship between the Department of Finance and the Bank of Canada, changes in the funding of health care, the governance of the national capital, as well as federal attention to policies for the disabled and the Canadian AIDS policy. Also addressed are the Conservatives' centerpiece environmental program, the Green Plan and regulation to broadcasting in the face of major technological advances.

The Liberal government's assault on the deficit will reduce program spending by 21 percent by 1998/99 and be accompanied by a reduction of almost 50,000 public employees. Rather than a frantic across-the-board slashing exercise, the cuts have been portrayed as a change in philosophy toward reducing the role of the federal government by devolving responsibilities to other sectors and applying private sector management techniques to those activities that remain. This year's edition focuses on life in Canada - from the perspective of specific government departments, the Liberal government and society as a whole - now that the federal budget cutting knife is being wielded in an unprecedented manner. Have the restraint measures been like a scalpel, surgically removing unnecessary fat from various government departments, or more like a chain saw cutting a wide swath through its core? Individual chapters analyze the impact of restraint on the departments of industry, environment, human resources development, treasury board, government services and public works, and defence.

This is the thirtieth volume in the series How Ottawa Spends. It is arguable that never in these years have Canadians faced such serious economic upheaval and political dysfunction as the current climate. The dramatic and seemingly sudden changes in the economy occurred simultaneously with a political drama - one that was largely disassociated from the real and pressing economic challenge. Early Harper budgets delivered lower taxes for all Canadians partly through highly targeted but politically noticeable small tax breaks on textbooks for students, tools for apprentices in skilled trades, and public transit costs. The needs of the beleaguered average Canadian and the "swing voter in the swing constituencies" of an already strategized "next" election were a key part of Conservative agenda-setting. In the 2007 budget alone there were twenty-nine separate tax reductions and federal spending was projected to increase by $10 billion, including a 5.7 percent increase in program spending. A small surplus of $3.3 billion was planned, almost all of which would go to debt reduction. As Harper savoured his 14 October 2008 re-election with a strengthened minority government, although without his desired majority, he and his minister of Finance already knew that his surpluses were likely gone in the face of the crashing financial sector and a looming recession. Future deficits were firmly back on the agenda. Contributors include Malcolm G. Bird (Carleton University), Chris Brown (Carleton University), G.

During the 1993 Federal election, the Liberals produced a document, known as the Red Book, which provided a detailed blueprint for how the party would govern, if elected. Jean Chrétien often stated that the promises were put in writing so the public would be better able to hold his government accountable. Three years into their mandate, the Liberals issued a self-assessment of their record which indicates that 78 percent of the 197 Red Book commitments have been fulfilled and another 12 percent are in progress. What constitutes living up to a promise is debatable as the opposition parties estimate that the Liberals have fulfilled only 25 percent of their promises.
