加拿大政府在2025年8月公布了32.8亿加元的预算赤字,而2024年8月的赤字为25亿加元。这一转变在很大程度上反映了收入增加了23亿加元(6.5%),这是由于公司和个人所得税以及海关进口关税的增加,而在联邦燃料费停止后,污染定价下降了9亿加元。不包括净精算损失的计划支出增加了30亿加元(9.1%),反映了直接计划支出的增加、对个人的重大转移以及对省、地区和直辖市的转移。公共债务费用下降了1亿加元(1.5%),因为国库券利率下降和交叉货币掉期净利息减少,在很大程度上被可销售债券存量增加的平均有效利率提高所抵消;2025-26年4月至8月期间,联邦预算赤字为111亿加元,而2024-25年同期为98亿加元。
Canada’s government posted a budget deficit of CAD 3.28 billion in August 2025, compared with a deficit of CAD 2.5 billion in August 2024. This shift largely reflected a CAD 2.3 billion (6.5%) increase in revenues, driven by higher corporate and personal income tax and customs import duties, while pollution pricing fell by CAD 0.9 billion following the cessation of the federal fuel charge. Program expenses, excluding net actuarial losses, rose by CAD 3.0 billion (9.1%), reflecting higher direct program expenses, major transfers to persons, and transfers to provinces, territories, and municipalities. Public debt charges fell by CAD 0.1 billion (1.5%) as lower interest rates on treasury bills and reduced net interest on cross-currency swaps were largely offset by higher average effective rates on an increased stock of marketable bonds; for the April–August 2025–26 period, the federal budget deficit stood at CAD 11.1 billion, compared to CAD 9.8 billion in the same period of 2024–25.
