How the federal budget went green, but left Toronto out in the cold

Guest: Tonda MacCharles, Ottawa Bureau Chief

The new federal budget spends $497 billion in all manner of ways, with a host of new green incentives, a grocery rebate for some Canadians and a dental care plan for others. The rich will be taxed more, there is money for the development of a lunar rover vehicle but there is no allotment to help bail out Toronto from its budget shortfall.
