The study, conducted by economists at the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives, predicted that over the same four years, the Liberals and NDP would run surpluses of $24.2 billion and $14.6 billion, respectively. The authors of the study claim to have used the budget projections that are most widely accepted among the parties.
