Budget Day Bill, Liberal Friends Get Paid, Allison Vaccine Inquiry update | Rebel Roundup

Lise Merle and Tamara Ugolini discuss the top stories of the day in this edition of the Rebel Roundup. Today, Budget Day 2026 as Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne tables the second federal budget under Prime Minister Mark Carney, with the Parliamentary Budget Officer projecting a deficit of about $63 billion this year rising toward $70 billion next year. Plus, Conservative MPs are asking why Liberal friends keep landing taxpayer-funded contracts and grants, from AI handouts to a $276,000 sole-source "strategic advice" deal and a $572,000 pay-equity coalition grant. And finally, an update from British Columbia's Allison Inquiry into vaccine injuries, as more Canadians who say they were harmed by COVID shots look for answers and accountability.
