But there is still lots of spending in key areas where the Liberals were criticized — whether it’s for youth unemployment or funding for athletes.

More than 3 out of 4 Americans plan to dine out this Mother’s Day, making it the busiest day of the year for restaurants. Behind that staggering number is a holiday tradition that has become more stressful, more expensive and less meaningful than the occasion deserves. The appeal is understandable. Mother’s Day comes with one unwritten rule: Mom does not cook. Restaurants have been cashing in on that rule for decades. The problem is that millions of families showing up for brunch during the same four-hour window does not produce the relaxed, celebratory morning anyone had in mind. The numbers…
