Details

Epoch: 123

Domain: financial

Fiscal cost estimate (LLM): $0.50B CAD

Structural estimate (RIPPLE): -$0.03B CAD net (v3-bfs-signed depth=2, decay=0.5/hop; diverges)

Top RIPPLE cost paths
  • −$0.01B → budgetary_balance (Budgetary Balance (Deficit/Surplus)) via federal_revenue
  • −$0.01B → direct_program_spending (Direct Program Expenses) via budgetary_balance
  • −$0.00B → federal_budget_balance (Federal Budget Balance) via federal_revenue
  • −$0.00B → transfers_to_provinces (Major Transfers to Provinces/Territories) via budgetary_balance

Causal effects: 247 downstream variables affected (223 immediate)

Divergence after: 180.183

Variable changes

  • federal_revenue: {"new":495.9,"old":495.8}

Proposed policy move

federal_revenue: 495.8 → 495.9 (▲ 0.1)

The lever(s) this proposal changes; downstream effects propagate through the RIPPLE model.
