Conservative MPs banged on desks and jeered loudly during Finance Minister Bill Morneau's budget speech making it nearly impossible to hear what Morneau was trying to say. Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh, People's Party of Canada Leader Maxime Bernier and Green Party Leader Elizabeth May react to the Liberal government's Budget 2019. Former Saskatchewan finance minister Janice MacKinnon predicts that could be a problem for many voters. After Conservative MPs stopped pounding on desks and jeering they walked out of the House of Commons and Morneau restarted his budget speech. The budget introduces a new, non-taxable Canada Training Benefit designed to help Canadians plan and pay for skills training.
