WHAT DEFICIT?

Harper keeps droning on about how the Liberals will create large 
deficits. However, the Liberal costing plan did not take into 
consideration the huge financial windfall from legalizing marijuana. 
The state of Colorado legalized it recently and now rake in as much 
tax revenue from it as they do from alcohol. That is huge and 
completely changed their economic picture, as well as lowering crime 
rates. We should expect the same in Canada. We won't have a deficit 
under Trudeau. We'll probably end up in surplus!

(It's looking more and more like we might find out if Trudeau will 
follow through on his promise to legalize pot.)
